While Massachusetts isn’t the South, you’d be surprised what good Cajun food you’ll find here. As far as east coast Cajun food goes, it doesn’t get any better than Chef Wayne’s Big Mamou. This Springfield restaurant might look small and unassuming from the outside, but inside are big Louisiana flavors. From heavenly Jambalaya to crab cakes that are to die for, it doesn’t get better than this in the Bay State. Chef Wayne’s Big Mamou is a tiny but mighty restaurant serving up the best Cajun food in Springfield, and arguably all of Massachusetts.

Editor’s Note: Since the time of publication, Big Mamou has closed.
