We have been ordering takeout from this place since the start of the pandemic and have always enjoyed their food. We finally made a trip down to dine in. We were seated at the chef table since we did not have a reservation. We ordered the fried oyster, gumbo, and shrimp étouffée. Enjoyed all three dishes. The pickle really added a dimension with the fried oyster dish. The gumbo had a nutty flavor to it that made it uniquely savory. The shrimp étouffée sauce was very flavorful, and yet, not overly heavy. The place itself has a uniquely New Orlean feel to it. We will definitely be back!

Very small, intimate and private restaurant with very good service. Due to the size may need a reservation to get in. We got the Shrimp Etouffe, the Catfish and the Peach and Blueberry Pie for dessert. Well presented and rounded dishes, nothing to blow up our minds but pretty good.

Wow! Excellent spot. The spicy shrimp was, possibly, the best shrimp dish I have ever had. The jambalaya was spicy and spectacular with everything prepared just perfectly. I highly recommend and will be returning again soon. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $100+ Recommended dishes Jambalaya

The experience was wonderful. The service, ambiance and food were terrific. The cauliflower and fried green tomatoes appetizers were delicious. I had the shrimp and grits as my entree and the corn bread pudding as a side for the table. There wasn't anything on the table that wasn't prepared properly. Everything we had was flavorful and intentional. The cobbler that we had for dessert was good but, in my opinion, not as good as the rest of the meal. The ambiance was charming and the prices were reasonable. The service was impeccable. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $30–50

Roux Creole Rocks. This intimate restaurant is just off the main highway in Laguna Beach. The service was wonderful and friendly, we got seated right away (reservations are a good idea here). We split the Shrimp and Grits appetizer. It is a 10 out of 10. I had the catfish which is one of their specialties, very well done and presented. My spouse had shrimp etouffe. We also were able to have their award winning pie. It was great too. Highly recommend Roux.

On point restaurant. Everything was delicious. I do not have a lot of experience with creole cuisine but I can say everything was very enjoyable. The place is small, the bar area is very comfortable. Shrimp and grits were super rich in flavor and texture. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $50–100
This was a taste of NOLA on the west coast. The rue on the Gumbo was spot on dark color. My preference is a little thicker on the rue but still wonderful. I was worried they would not have any Louisiana hot sauce or at least a cayenne hot sauce but glory be they did. Next time in town hitting the jambalaya. Outstanding job you guys.

Ordered two kids' Mac & Cheese, the Catfish Orleans and Shrimp Etoufee and sadly they were from poor to unremarkable. Kiddo Mac & Cheese came with watery cheese sauce and gummy grated cheese on top, which channeled Costco. Virtually tasted of nothing. Chick-Fil-A's Mac is honestly better and we had to send both back. The waitress kept trying to get us to over order, which I didn't like. The suggestion to add shrimp to the kiddo Mac seemed helpful, but my son who eats curry couldn't stomach it due to the amount of chili powder. Again, not the hallmark of good service. The Catfish came out after less than 10mins and so was obviously precooked and tasted microwaved, evidenced by the soggy breading. The grits I subbed from the herb rice looked great, but the jus just didn't hit and tasted of nothing. The Shrimp Etoufee flattered to deceive, again the biggest let down was the lack of unity the dish had in terms of what it was trying to achieve and poor blending of too many flavors. I'd eaten here a couple of years ago and thought it was ok, but upon return I can safely say I'll never go back. The wine was well chilled, but I had really hoped for a beer and they had none. I've had Creole cuisine in various parts of the Creole community and this just doesn't justify the price tag. Ambience is nice, but the waitress was standoffish when we voiced our concerns and I was left with little choice but to forego a tip. I hope they up their game, since the concept, venue and atmosphere remain compelling.. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $30–50 Food: 1 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 3
