Abe's Cajun Market & Cafe050

Set in an atmosphere resembling a New Orleans courtyard, with jazz playing over the speakers and checkered cloths on the tables, Abe's Cajun Market & Cafe serves up genuine Cajun cuisine. Gumbo, crawfish etoufee, and red beans and rice highlight the appertizer menu, while salads include a grilled shrimp salad and "Mama's" chicken salad.

Daily specials and dinners include a smothered pork chop over rice, sausage, and catfish, shrimp, and fried oyster platters. The sandwiches are huge (big enough for two, if you want to leave room for dessert), with various poboys and muffaletta. The kids' menu includes burgers, chicken strips, shrimp, corn dogs, and catfish bites, for $3.99. While you're ordering at the counter, the dessert case gets your mouth watering with brownies, pecan pie, and cheesecake, among many other fresh treats.

The restaurant has high chairs and clean, spacious restrooms.
