Reviews for Fire on the Bayou in Orange City, FL
First time eating here. I have to say that the food was great! Had the little sausage bites..they had a little sweet with each... bite. Husband got the shrimp and grits, he said the grits were great! I had the Vader burger, I give that burger a 10/10 ! Overall, definitely will be back! Read more
Fire on the Bayou is a hidden treasure! Who would have thought that someone would have carved out a delicious slice of New... Orleans and dropped it into an office park in Orange City, FL?! My lunch companion spent decades in The Big Easy; her seal ofapproval was all I needed to whet my appetite for some Cajun cuisine. Amber was our friendly and attentive server who deliveredour wonderful meal and checked back on us just the right amount. My friend had the fish and chips - there was enough for two. Iopted for the steak and shrimp tacos with voodoo sauce. We finished with a generous piece of key lime pie and two spoons.Absolutely perfect! The decor is so entertaining. The ambience is casual and welcoming. I will be back on a mission toexperience the gumbo (and virtually everything else on the menu) over the coming year! Read more
One of the better meals I've had in the area. I'm Louisiana born and lived in Charleston SC all summer 2021-i developed an... incredible craving for Cajun seafood boil- until 2021 I didn't like seafood minus the odd tuna sandwich. I came intending to geta boil bucket of shrimp and ended up getting the fish and chips and wow I'll be back. Fries were thick and crispy and the fishwas fresh hot crispy light- not greasy- and 3 MASSIVE pieces. So much I had to take 2 pieces home. My friend got the chickenenvie and oh boy that lemon sauce.. they need to sell it as a side and to go over the fish. I was literally scraping the sauceoff the plate to go with my fried fish! The rice was spicy and well seasoned in a good way- I'm a spice wimp. Nothing was overlysalty and our server Amber C I think was delightful. Restaurant was clean bathrooms were clean everyone was wonderful. I'll bereturning to try the rest of the menu for sure! Read more
If you?re looking for great New Orleans food this is the place. All their food is delicious, but they?re crab buckets are... outstanding. They are actually better than the seafood restaurants that only do those bucket style of meals as well. Always lovecoming here. Read more
This was one of the better dinners we have had lately. The location is kind of tucked away in a plaza but that means they have... plenty of parking. The plaza has businesses at different levels, however the restaurant is on the first floor. We wereimmediately greeted when we walked in and the service continued to be amazing. We ordered the sausage bites appetizer. I'm notusually a sausage fan but I absolutely loved that appetizer. I ordered the Jilly Bucket with Bayou Love Seasoning at Medium (notsuper spicy at medium). The bucket was amazing. The dish is swimming in butter, which gave the bucket a ton of flavor. But don'tworry, they have bibs available lol We ordered the tacos and those were impressive in both size and taste. I was alsopleasantly surprised with their Cabernet. We wrapped it up with their chocolate cake. Split three ways it was still plenty forus. I would definitely recommend checking them out. Read more
Excellent and fast service even though the restaurant was 100% full. All the staff were friendly and stopped ny often.. Fried... green tomatoes with fried crayfish and cream sauce was fantastic and a joy to eat. The boil with medium spicy Bayou sauce withgarlic butter was one of the best I've ever had...and thank you for the bib! Everything in the boil was perfect from the corninfused with the sauce, easy to peel huge shrimp, snow crab that pulled right out of the shell, sausage and potatoes....and thebread I stole from my wives jambalaya to soak up the garlic butter. The jambalaya had the same large shrimp and medium spicysauce. Nice selection of beer and wine....and thank you for the large number of wet naps! Read more
Awesome local spot. Easy to get to. Ample parking. Service was amazing. Clean and friendly environment offering an array of... southern comfort and seafood. Our server was great. She knew the menu and gave us her honest opinion when we could not decide.Tried the voodoo shrimp tacos. Flavor and heat! Appetizer was BBQ shrimp. The garlic is strong, just the way it should be whenpairing shrimp and bbq! Every thing was fresh from start to finish. It has become a favorite place to go in just 1 visit. Read more
Delicious place to eat!!! As you can see big portions and New Orleans atmosphere. If your a person that likes gator tail don't... skip it here, it's so tender and the sauce they serve with it really makes it. Read more
