Atchafalaya Restaurant Review: When Tony Tocco took over Café Atchafalaya and renamed it simply Atchafalaya, he breathed new life into the space, giving the interior a distinctive contemporary but understated look, and two dining rooms. Almost every table finds the signature shrimp and creamy grits. Seafood ravioli in squid ink, pasta jambalaya or red snapper are among the other highlights, although boudin-stuffed quail or tea-smoked crispy duck also rate. The smartly conceived wine list covers all the important bases for a good Creole meal. At Sunday brunch, the egg dishes with fresh, lump crab meat are the best bet, but only after you prepare your own Bloody Mary at the self-service table. Among desserts, the sweetest experience is the bananas Foster french toast on Sunday mornings. Tocco’s high energy personality and his well-trained staff make this a delightful find. |
