Think of us as Belmar’s Little Bayou serving up some of the best Cajun food on the Jersey Shore! Stop by for customer favorites like Alligator Sausage, Blackened Tuna, Swamp Daddy Pasta, & Seafood Jambalaya. The intimacy of our dining room and open kitchen lets you know the dishes are prepared especially for you. A night at this tiny restaurant is like going to a dinner party with 50 close friends. Everyone is like family.
Cajun-Creole eats such as gumbo, jambalaya & gator sausage in a tiny living-room setting.

One of my favorite restaurants! Their alligator sausage is a personal favorite of mine, and I always grab an extra order or two to go, after my meal. I have been going here for my birthday (on days they’re open) for 7 or 8 years now, and aside from a Winter storm closing (this year), they never disappoint me!!! Ragin Cajun has one of the best “blackened catfish” dishes I have tasted, and although the restaurant was closed on my birthday this year, my craving for the blackened catfish and alligator sausage brought me here a few days later. I have made sure to bring family and friends to this restaurant when I can over the years, and continue to rave about this place. I will definitely be back soon!

The food and experience was SO GOOD!!!! I did the Igloo outside and had the best time with friends. It was a unique dining experience, BYOB, heaters in the Igloo, EXCELLENT food, and a packaged price (app, dinner, and dessert). We also ordered extras on top of what was included. It was a blast! I highly reccomend.

We have been coming here for years. Years – and it remains one of our all time favorites!!! It’s like relaxing in the kitchen of a great friend while they whip you up one of their specialties. We’ve never had a bad time here at Ragin Cajun!!!

I had an amazing experience at Rajun Cajun, and a huge part of that was thanks to Jessie Duerr and Patsy. From the moment we walked in, they made us feel genuinely welcomed and taken care of. Their service was friendly, attentive, and professional without ever feeling rushed.
Jessie was incredibly knowledgeable about the menu and made great recommendations, while Patsy went above and beyond to make sure everything came out perfectly and on time. You can tell they truly care about their guests and take pride in what they do.
The food was fantastic, but the outstanding service from Jessie and Patsy is what really made the night memorable. If you’re heading to Rajun Cajun, you’re in great hands with them. We’ll definitely be back!

The gumbo was okay. I’ve had better tasting gumbo. The rice was too spicy to eat and it was not cooked all the way. I was disappointed as I had read reviews before ordering from this place. I won’t order again.

Absolutely incredible dinner Saturday night! Gator sausage, coconut shrimp, seafood paella, and more. Our apps & entrees were delicious, ingredients were fresh, & outcomes were meals that were cooked to perfection. I can’t wait to comeback!

My favorite restaurant in the area! The tuna steak with dipping mustard is to die for! I also have a VERY picky child, and he swears their mac and cheese is the best he’s ever had – I tried it, and honestly, I’d order it for myself, too. The red beans and rice? Also superb.
I usually order delivery, and I really appreciate that everything is always correct and nothing is ever forgotten. It’s such a relief knowing that every time I order, it’ll be an stress-free, delicious experience. 🙂 Love Ragin Cajun!

Also we had there Blackened Shrimp & Scallops in Angel Hair Pasta in a creole sauce. Thank you for a great meal without heading on a plane to the Big Easy!!!

Ragin Cajun is my go-to spot for a date night with my husband, my first choice for my birthday dinner every year and anytime in between just to get a delicious meal. From the cozy vibes inside to the beautiful sunset view over the marina on the patio, you won’t be disappointed! Extra shout out for always welcoming well behaved dogs on the patio, ours loves the alligator sausage too!

The Ragin Cajun is a decent Cajun restaurant. There are very few Cajun restaurants in our area and you can get some unique dishes here. I don’t much care for the atmosphere inside. The food is decent and the prices are fair. It’s not the place I would choose on my own, but when friends want to go I will go with them.
