Really cool atmosphere, with seating and a bar area. They also have a great selection of Cajun menu.

We ordered the fried calamari, jambalaya and crawfish étouffée.

They were delicious and. Great portion size too. The GM came by to ask how was everything and we got talking and found the owner is from Louisiana.

Parking on the side is a bit tight so don’t try if you are driving a huge truck.

My wife and I stumbled upon Bayou Jack’s today while we were in the area and were thoroughly impressed! From the strong Cajun flavors, quaint building, and great service; these two Louisiana natives really enjoyed it. Logan our waiter was awesome and we will definitely be back!

If you are not visiting this hidden gem you are really missing out on some amazing food. I have eaten at many Cajun restaurants from Houston to Louisiana and by far this is one of the best Cajun restaurants around. I had the redfish – it was cooked perfectly – the grilled Oysters were out of this world delicious. When I visit again this will be the first on my list to enjoy an amazing dinner.

We came here for happy hour/early dinner, around 4 p.m. on a weekday. Loved our experience! We got appetizers, drinks, and mains.

We got the dirty balls and fried okra as appetizers. I would order both of those again, as both were out of this world! The dirty balls are large balls of deep fried dirty rice with queso and a spicy red sauce coating them. The fried okra was super fresh, and the breading had Cajun spice in it. The okra was served with some kind of herbed aioli that was also amazing.

My friend got the Po Boy as her main dish, and she substituted fried gator for fried shrimp. They were more than happy to accommodate that request and it was amazing. Highly recommend.

I got the Oysters on the Half Shell (raw) and the Ménage a Trois for my main course. Oysters were fresh and HUGE, and they came with plenty of lemons, cocktail sauce, horseradish, and saltines. A couple of the oysters still had some grit in them, but you always run that risk when ordering gulf oysters, so it’s not a huge complaint.

The Ménage a Trois was a great way to sample all of the Cajun staples on the menu. The crawfish etoufee could have used more acid, but was pretty decent once I squeezed some lemon in it. The red beans and rice aren’t something I’d necessarily have again. They were fine, but they looked and tasted like pinto beans, not traditional red beans. I LOVED the gumbo, however. If coming back, I would order the large gumbo over getting the Ménage a Trois again.

For drinks, we got Abita Amber on draft, the house margarita on the rocks, the swamp juice, and the blueberry lemonade. All were amazing.

We definitely plan to return in the near future. We are very intrigued by the brunch menu, and plan to make that our next adventure here!

Went there for oysters, waitress assured me they were large full oysters. They were not. Got one order on the halfshell (cook did not loosen them from the muscle) 2/6 had a noticeably *dead* flavor to them 4 were fresh.

One order of some cooked Cajun/cheese ish oysters, they were severely undersized, but flavor was ok.

Overall experience, would not go back. Overpriced and underwhelmed, still tipped 25% out of habit.

Being from Louisiana, I can honestly say this place made me feel at home. Great cajun music, sweet host Crystal. Food was superb. The Dirty Balls are excellent. The meat pies and the sides made me proud.

Great experience. Being a resident of Roanoke, you just can’t stay away from the charm of main Oak Street. However, this was our first time at Bayou Jack’s and it was an awesome experience.

The ambience and the setup were really good. We opted for the patio seating and pretty expectedly that was good too. Our hostess Emma was great in her service. 5 stars to her too.

Coming to the food, it was equally good. The pastas were my favorite. The taste, the portion, the taste – everything was top notch and delicious. All of them were reasonably priced and the service was done as per our requirement with the appetizers coming first followed by the entrees. We ordered the following:

Rita Frozen – $10.00
Bayou Lemonade – $6.50
Louisiana BBQ Chicken Wings – $9.00
Fresh Fried Calamari – $12.50
Crawfish Monica (the best in the list) – $14.00
Big Easy Shrimp Pasta – $15.00

We will definitely come back soon.

The chortled oysters are amazing, the crawfish is perfect, there are so many things on the menu and so many things rotating that your biggest decision will be whether or not you want to bring five of them home with you. The people are wonderful they remember you and by name. It’s really a family atmosphere with lots of friendly people and great food!

I came on a Wednesday and it wasn’t too busy so I was able to talk to my friend without having to be loud. We got the crawfish and it was very good. Jules was our server and she did very good. I recommend this place for casual dining and good crawfish
