Reviews for The Cajun Connoisseur Food Truck and Catering in Chicago, IL

Although the customer service is excellent, perhaps I just happened to arrive on a bad day. My food lacked flavor. I ordered... jambalaya, but the sausage and shrimp were charred and appeared to have been reheated. Personally, the rice did not complementthe weird flavor of the chicken. In contrast, I would look into other options from this business but I would not order thisagain. Read more

Their food is so good on the food truck. I had the jambalaya, crab balls and the fried lobster and crab Po'boy. The people on... the food truck are very friendly. Everyone needs to find out where the food truck is and try them. Read more

I had the pleasure of meeting the owners of the Cajun Connoisseur. They are not only an amazing couple, their food is... everything. On Wednesday, July 13, 2022, I ordered shrimp and grits from their food truck. I didn't eat it right away. Iwarmed it up when I got home expecting the grits to be dry and lumpy. To my surprise the grits were super creamy and delicious. The portion was so large, I was not able to finish it. I warmed it again on Thursday and Friday. I just finished it today. Three days later the shrimp and grits were as delicious as they were on day one. Do yourself a FLAVOR and visit the CajunConnoisseur. Read more

I visited The Cajun Connoisseur for the first time Wednesday night and I fell in love! My date and I got the cajun shrimp &... grits and we both were beyond satisfied with our meal! The food was delicious and you an just tell that it was made with all thelove and care in the world. The service was also beyond "high-quality" it was cozy and welcoming. We were welcomed and thankedfor choosing to eat there, we were checked on just enough times to know we were being taken care off, and on our way out we weretold to have a great night and to come back soon! I most certainly will be back! 5-stars isn't enough to properly rate The CajunConnoisseur! Read more

Their dishes are very nice. Food is so delicious

I loved this place when it first opened up. The food was great. The last few times I went the resturant was closed when the sign... said it should be opened. I ordered the Jambalaya and Jumbo. I had to take both things back. The Jambalaya appeared to bereheated and was cold in the middle. It had clumps of chicken and seasoning on top of my food. The recipe is not the same. Iwill not being going back to this place because its like playing Russian roulette with my food. Read more

Ordered takeout with coworkers and wasn?t thrilled with the taste of the chicken baked potato. Cajun Connoisseur offers a garlic... and herb or Cajun option for the seasoning choice when ordering the potatoes. I selected the Cajun seasoning. All I could tastewas rosemary and the seasoning overpowered everything. It didn?t add to the potato but made it inedible as it was too much. HadI known I would?ve requested no seasoning be added. My coworker and I both had the same reactions. My other coworker orderedlobster macaroni and it was like finding a needle in a haystack for her, the lobster was M.I.A. I recommend requesting a samplebefore wasting money if the restaurant allows. Read more

The food is good. However it is not prepared fresh and they just reheat it. The first time I had the jambalaya, the rice and... chicken tasted like yesterday and looked like my food when I reheat leftovers in the microwave. Decided to give them a secondchance. My shrimp and grits had lumps in it. Sadly won?t be returning. Read more
