They offer both the traditional Italian muff and a seafood muff that’s loaded with fried shrimp, catfish, and oysters and dressed with lettuce, tomato, and their special Cajun mayo. If you’ve never had one before, you’re in for a real treat.
Their entree selections are some of the most incredible hidden gems on the menu. Pictured above is their Catfish Lorell which features perfect fried catfish strips topped with a creamy shrimp creole over rice. Yum!
