\u201cWe are a mixture between Cajun and American,\u201d McClanahan said. \u201cWe\u2019ve merged two concepts into one. They didn\u2019t really have an option down there for Cajun, so it kind of sets us apart by giving people the opportunity to experience that side. But for those who don\u2019t like Cajun, we have your traditional foods as well.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n Menu offerings include items such as boudin, gumbo, shrimp and grits, steaks, burgers and alligator, along with classic sides including French fries, sweet potato fries, tater tots, macaroni and cheese and mashed potatoes.<\/span><\/p>\n Robertson said customer demand during the restaurant\u2019s first weeks has already exceeded expectations.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cThis weekend we sold out of three dishes,\u201d he said. \u201cShrimp and grits, steaks\u2014we sold out of those. We had to keep making stuff from scratch, but we make everything from scratch regardless.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n He added that Cajun favorites have quickly become customer favorites.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cWe sell out of gumbo all the time,\u201d Robertson said. \u201cShrimp and grits, alligator\u2014those are things people don\u2019t get on a daily basis, so they all rush in here and grab it all. We weren\u2019t expecting it.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n Beyond the expanded food menu, the owners hope the new location continues to strengthen Montevallo\u2019s growing nightlife scene.<\/span><\/p>\n Robertson said the restaurant will feature live music, karaoke, televisions, projector screens and a welcoming atmosphere for customers of all ages.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cThe nightlife went dark years ago, and we\u2019ve been trying to bring it back,\u201d Robertson said. \u201cWe\u2019re going to be bringing live music, karaoke\u2014everything you can do up until 2 a.m. It gives people something fun where they don\u2019t have to drive 40 minutes to Birmingham or somewhere else. You can drive 10 minutes down the road and do the same thing.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n He also emphasized creating a safe environment where families, college students and community members can gather.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cIt gives the kids a place to come that\u2019s safe,\u201d Robertson said. \u201cEverybody has a good time.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.shelbycountyreporter.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" \u201cWe are a mixture between Cajun and American,\u201d McClanahan said. \u201cWe\u2019ve merged two concepts into one.
