when they make your wait for 25 minutes when it's not that busy, don't get that at all. A couple that came in after us just left. Having said that, the food was very good. We had crab cakes, gumbo, soft shell crab and a crawfish po' boy. Service was excellent. Reasonably priced. Warn you up front..it's essentially all fried... More

A little mix up in the seating but resolved, a full mound of crawfish and being Cajun and visiting Tennessee for a couple of nights, that hit the spot! Every one at dinner enjoyed the food. This place may need to expand and hire more wait staff.

The people were nice, but kept seating others in front of our group, and seemed to forget we were waiting. Then it took forever to get a waitress, and almost as long to get our food. When it did get there, the food was good, but it took too long

Fried green tomatoes - fabulous! Crab cake po boy: to die for! Having been relocated from New Orleans to Florida by hurricane Katrina, we know how hard it is to find authentic creole recipes elsewhere, but this downtown restaurant has got it going on. We'll make this a regular stop when in Chattanooga from now on.

My family and I went here over the weekend. The service was wonderful. Loved the Etouffe (good and spicy) and the fried green tomatoes. We will visit again when in the area.

Very reasonably priced, and more food than you can finish. The Shrimp Etouffe and the Jambalaya were the best. I tried a little of everything. Everything with crayfish in it was a little boring, but I believe that is the nature of crayfish. It feels like fine dining at night, but the staff is so friendly that the place isn't... More

Service sucks. We were warned to stay away by people who tried the place before but wanted to give the place a chance. Every one was right.... This place is horrible. Spend your money where it will be appreciated!

We go here all the time (2-3) of us and it is wonderful. Good food and great service. I decided to have a birthday party there (12 adults) and was not pleased. Three of us got there on time and we asked to be seated, so we could order drinks. Even though the place was almost empty, they would not... More

My husband and I came to Chattanooga for a quick family get away with our 7 month old son. Wanted to try this restaurant based on reviews. When we arrived, didn't realize it was closed for a private party but they went own and accommodated us. We were so surprised by their kindness. So on top of great food, they... More

We loved the food (really rich) at Blue Orleans. It was fairly empty when we ate there late on a Friday night, but the service was friendly, the portions were healthy, and the suggested dishes all turned out to be very tasty. If you want a good interpretation of Cajun food in Chattanooga, this is a good place to eat.... More
