Monkhouse Soul And Seafood

I had to go to shrevework on a business trip. And ultimately I did not have a very good experience overall. Initially I went 21 restaurant it was treated so rudely that I just left. I was told by a local that there was another restaurant that I should try out. And it was monk house seafood. I put it in the g p s and I made it. Kind of disappointed in my whole experience in Shreveport. Up to this point I was greeted by a friendly gentleman behind the desk. Who could obviously tell that I wasn't in the best of spirits. He imparted some very kind words to me and assured me that while I was there , I would be treat it like family. The menu wasn't exactly what I expected. It to be but I had traveled so far , that I decided that I would get something. I got a bowl of gumbo which was served with rice and he brought it to my table. The gumbo was okay. And I wasn't disappointed with it. However , the gentleman that was at the front desk was very kind to me and probably the most kind and positive person that I met in my entire time in shreveport. He really made my day. I don't remember the gentleman's name but I do remember that he was haitian. I told him that if I was ever back that way again , that I would definitely come back just because of the experience that I had.

Food located near airport. Catfish was tasty, oysters okay, coleslaw always open to new flavors had raisins in it. Tartar sauce was really good (homemade?). I thought oysters would have tasted better if right out of the fryer. Cashier a little absent. I had to remind her of condiments, dessert ordered and ice, although paid in advance. Looking at my ticket when filling bag may have helped her. Not a fancy place..you could miss if wasn't for large logo on front.

Tried this place for dinner last night and omggggggg the food was so good. I highly recommend this restaurant if you’re in the area!

Whole Catfish Dinner was Delicious!

Having grown up in the south this is exactly what reminds me of my grandmas home cooking. The restaurant looks like a hole in the wall joint leaving the airport. I saw it and had to try. I was not disappointed at all! The food is excellent! Everything tastes like it was made to order. I didn’t ask but I’m pretty sure it was. This is legit home cooking southern food. The staff was super friendly and the price was more than reasonable. Highly recommend if in the area.

Don't let the outside sway you. Great food and service.

Don't let the look or area deceive you. This is the source of some very fine, genuine southern cooking. Fish was delicious, as was the coleslaw and ettoufee. Service was excellent. Plenty for the money and very good. They seemed to do a booming take-out business.

Amazing fried alligator po boy customer service was excellent next time I'm in Louisiana imma get it again
