| Soulard has no shortage of Cajun food, but Molly’s is more authentic than most, and its ambience is a full curly-haired head and shapely shoulders above the rest, just like its fictitious-but-lovely namesake. The barbecued shrimp and fried green tomatoes are a favorite appetizer, matched in complexity of flavor by the coffee-encrusted lamb and smoked duck with andouille, dirty rice and sweet potatoes. Molly’s has upped the ante with its craft cocktail bar, and the mixologist cleverly arranged the menu by style and spirit, along the lines of a wine list. Many of Soulard’s brick restaurant facades hide lovely patios out back, but at Molly’s, the 11,000-square-foot patio beckons passersby from the street. The patio can get rowdy on weekend evenings, though the staff does its best to keep things in hand as a courtesy to the regulars, many of whom live within walking distance. |
