Bourbon Street Cafe

Got a craving for Cajun fare in true New Orleans fashion, then come on down to Bourbon Street in Bayside Queens and satisfy those cravings. Feast on Chef Joe's mouthwatering Chicken & Shrimp Jambalaya, Seafood Gumbo or Spicy Cajun Sampler all while sipping on one of our many specialty cocktails and it will feel like you are sitting on the streets of the French Quarter itself.

"The service here is excellent. They do a 4 course prefix with good selections. The food is ok, seemed very heavy - I had buttermilk fried chicken but they put a heavy sauce on it that makes it a bit soggy. I'd go for the jambalaya next time. Wings were great though!"

"I chose this restaturant because it wasn't to far from home and the menu was eclectic enough that my family, with a variety of different preferences in cuisine, could find something to enjoy. It was my son's 8th birthday. The staff was friendly, knowledgable and attentive. The night we were there (Thurs) they were also going to have live music later that evening. The atmosphere was festive and fun, the energy was high and growing as it got later (we were leaving with the 8 year old). Out of the four entrees we ordered three (3) were very enjoyable. The fourth we didn't like at all (shrimp jambalaya). The shrimp were over cooked and the dish was too spicy hot for most. I would go there again because you can't beat great service."

"We had a nice Sunday Brunch here. Service was fast and our waiter was friendly. My eggs Benedict were nicely poached and the Hollandaise sauce was tasty but a bit on the cold side. The bill was very reasonable and the Bloody Mary not bad at all. Good deal, no?"
