In Short
Large crowds and raucous music are the norm here. The small dining room and bar are packed regularly with a local crowd, who come for the spicy food and festive atmosphere. The menu features Cajun-Creole cuisine, with starters like crab cakes and Cajun popcorn shrimp with fried okra. Entrees include jambalaya, blackened catfish, all-you-can-eat crawfish, mild-yet-flavorful trout "Catahoula" and petrale sole fried in crispy batter.

It is history... Sudden and without explanation.... ALL GONE! A call to the phone number gets a sad recording about the death of the mother of John Drocco, the owner. (but no particular date is given, but it just occurred, after the place closed.

Several years ago I came here for a friend's birthday. At some point we ended up having a food fight. In the middle of that, the waitress asked us if we wanted more to drink. That's what makes PJ's good. Just went back tonight for an anniversary dinner. The salad was nice. The cold seafood extravanganza (I think that's what they called it) was fine. Most of it was pretty good - fresh seafood served cold and unadorned. The jambalaya had almost no flavor. I've made jambalaya - it ain't hard to do. No excuse for that. But the waitress was great - super friendly in a genuine way. You could tell she still didn't really care about what she was doing - not like she was trying to impress us. The atmosphere is fun. Had a really good time. Go for that.

I wish I could review this restaurant and tell you all about the delicious meal I had, but after waiting 30 minutes to order after receiving bread and water, we left. The restaurant was not even crowded and we could not even get someone's attention. It was like we were suddenly invisible. Really weird.
