Been there, done that

The place is small and a bit dirty. But we enjoyed the country/western bar. They give free line dance instructions and there is a mechanical bull, which was entertainment in itself.
Restaurant wise, I was excited to try Cajun food, so we ate at the Bourbon Bayou. The service dampened my mood. We were seated right away, but the cold, hard bread was brought out after 20 minutes. The waitress went by our table several times and saw our empty water glasses, but never refilled them of her own accord. I had to ask her for water.
The mojito was disgusting and the fried pickles were awful. My husband and I have had them before and were expecting around the same taste and texture, but all the chef did was take sliced pickles out of a jar, which are too thick, and fried them. We let the waitress know and we changed our order to calamari. She came back a minute later and said they were out of calamari as well as the entree I ordered. I told her my second choice. I wanted to leave, but my husband did not, so we stayed. The food was so-so. I would not recommend this restaurant.
