Standout dish:

At $14.95, the Seafood Gumbo is one of Cajun Steamer's best-selling dishes. This meal is a hearty, comforting stew that combines the fresh flavor of the Gulf with the rich, deep tastes of a dark roux. The gumbo, which is heaped with sausage, shrimp, and crab, is served over white rice, which soaks up all the flavorful broth. It has the ideal amount of seasoning, a wonderful balance of heat and flavor without overpowering the delicate fish. Because of the large portion size, this dish is filling even when eaten by itself. This dish at Cajun Steamer is a must-try, regardless of your level of gumbo expertise.
