Finding the Best Cajun Food in Lewisville, Texas

Cajun cooking is a staple in Lewisville, Texas, though there are only two restaurants in the area. The first is Razzoo's Cajun Cafe at 1990 S. Stemmons Freeway and the other one is Johnny G's at 1425 Justin Road. Take it from me, nothing beats good Cajun cuisine.

Razzoo's has been in town for several years and is a chain restaurant. Featured items include nice selection of Cajun classics like gumbo and blackened salmon. The walls are graced with fishing nets, and various items like old tires, and such; you will see something different every time you visit. The food is fresh and spicy and there is always enough to take some home, which is the Cajun tradition. You don't have to have fish, or crawfish, or even gator; many people order the chicken, which comes grilled, fried or blackened. All this won't cost you an arm and a leg either, two can eat here for around thirty dollars.

Johnny G's is a new restaurant in Lewisville. It is a rather unique blend of Cajun and Italian cooking. The shrimp pasta is something special, as is the blackened fish. The ambience is different as well, the tables are wooden picnic style and some of the walls are covered with galvanized aluminum. There are pictures of New Orleans, and the bayou all over the walls. But the best thing about Johnny G's is that Mama G, prepares an Italian Buffet every Wednesday night, with the best all you can eat pasta and sauces in town.
