Orlandeaux's Café - Restaurant in Shreveport - 5301 S Lakeshore Dr, USA

Absolutely love the food at this restaurant. Every dish I’ve tried, I’ve enjoyed. I’ve also brought colleagues here and they love it. Food is always hot and well seasoned and you can tell they use fresh ingredients. Reminds me of good home cooking food. Trust you won’t be disappointed! Waiters and bartenders are awesome as well. They have great Cajun/r&b music playing and their main dining room overlooks a river. It’s beautiful! My only suggestion is to have a bathroom attendant or have bathroom cleanliness checks throughout the day. Every time I’ve used their restroom, it has not been a good experience. It smells and it’s usually dirty. I honestly think adding bathroom checks to their daily routine would fix this—otherwise the service, food and restaurant vibe is on point!

I really wanted to give a 5 star all the way around. I didn't because their menu and website say they serve brunch. They don't anymore. We ate here on a Friday night and had a 30-minute wait. Not bad for a Friday. The first time ever here, the view is awesome. The service and food was awesome. I had Red Beans and Rice. It had the perfect amount of heat. My husband had a platter with a bowl of mustard greens. He said his was perfect. If you like greens, I suggest you try them. They are the best we have ever had. Perfect amount of heat. We went back Saturday with the family because we all wanted brunch. We were very disappointed when we found out they didn't serve brunch. The food Saturday was just as good as Friday. I highly recommend this place.

My family and I were on a road trip from West TX to visit family in Alabama. We did a search for the best restaurants off Highway 20 and Orlandeaux's was the suggestion. Being the foodies that we are, we starved ourselves until we arrived at our destination. Needless to say it far exceeded our expectations. We had the pleasure of having Rozlyn as our server. She was exceptional. The food was freshly prepared and delicious. If I could have given 10 stars, I would have! The restaurant is right on the lake at a beautiful location. It was a 30 minute wait, but we used that time to take photos and walk our dogs on this perfect fall afternoon.

LOVED IT!! We were on our way to Texas and made a stop in Louisana just for food, and this place didn't disappoint! Great food, had the gator, gumbo, shrimp po boy, and more! Our waitress was amazing! And the rest of the staff too! Loved the location, right on the water, felt like at home cookin! Thank you for such great food and service. we can't wait to come back!

I was traveling through with my dog and looking for somewhere with outside seating. Orlandeaux's had some picnic tables outside, and it was a beautiful, warm day. The hostess and waitress at the bar were very nice. The food was delicious! I enjoyed watching some of the wildlife and boat traffic during my meal and got to walk down the small dock and the lawn to relax after indulging in dessert.

I've been in Shreveport over a week, been trying to come here & I will say it was worth the wait. The restaurant is nicely situated,l ooking over the water, every1 from the hostess, servers, cooks, bartenders, was on point & that's rare to find when it's a big place. There's a 2hr wait most times, trust me, sit down wait, the food will put you in a tasty spot. My bartender was Nyiah, she was so nice & informative of the menu. The owner surely stands at the top of my list at the place to eat or drink. Hats off to you Orlandeaux's

I am in a long distance relationship and my boyfriend lives in Shreveport. Every time I fly to Louisiana he knows that I HAVE to eat there. The view and atmosphere are both amazing. The restaurant is literally right by Cross Lake and you can enjoy the view while you eat. The service is fast and friendly, and most of all the food is the best seafood I've had. You MUST try the stuffed shrimp. Please visit when you're in Shreveport, you definitely won't regret it!!!

My family had a birthday celebration and the atmosphere was wonderful. The lake view is calming and beautiful. Our server was friendly, professional, and attentive. The food was delicious. I definitely recommend this is a place you would love to try. Awesome!!!!!
