What’s Cookin’ at Razzoo’s? The Menu
Razzoo’s menu is like a foodie road trip through the Louisiana bayou — full of zesty, savory, and satisfying dishes that’ll have your taste buds dancing.
What We Tried (and Loved!)
Here’s what our table devoured — and yes, we’d order it all again:
- Cajun Combo Skillet – A hearty mix of Southern favorites served hot and sizzling.
- Boudin Balls – Crispy on the outside, flavorful on the inside, and perfect with that spicy bayou sauce (🔥 it’s got a kick — and this is coming from someone who’s not a sauce person).
- Stuff’d Shrimp – My husband’s pick and a solid winner — the crabmeat stuffing and lemon butter sauce were spot-on.
- Grilled Alligator Platter – Yes, our 10-year-old ordered this and loved it! Tender and smoky with bold flavor — kid-approved for adventurous eaters.
We also spotted several other standout dishes on the menu, including:
- Rat Toes® – Shrimp and crab-stuffed jalapeños, deep-fried and totally unique.
- Crispy Fried Gator Tail
- Blackened Shrimp & Grits
- Jambalaya Pasta
- Seafood Combo Platter
And for dessert? Bread Puddin’ with dark rum sauce — rich, warm, and a sweet way to finish the meal.
Bonus: Mixed Drinks = Pretty + Powerful
Heads up, grown-ups: the mixed drinks are beautiful and NOLA-strong. Colorful and tropical, they definitely bring the Bourbon Street vibes, so sip smart if you’re driving.
Is It Family-Friendly?
Yes! Razzoo’s totally works for families — it’s lively without being too loud, and there’s plenty to keep kids happy.

A Fun Surprise Outside
Before or after your meal, let the kids stretch their legs at the small koi pond out front — a sweet little spot to explore while waiting for your table. We also noticed a patch of purple and yellow flowers near the entrance. As former Louisiana residents, we couldn’t help but smile — LSU fans will probably recognize that color combo right away! Whether it was intentional or not, it felt like a little nod to Louisiana.
