Iama Critic Rating - A-Bear's Restaurant - 3 Stars 809 Bayou Black Drive, Houma, LA Overall: I can't really call this a review as I did such a horrible job of documenting our visit to Abear's Cafe. I did not take pictures of most of the food we ordered, and another guest paid the check, which never happens, so I do not even have cost figures. So let's just call this review a "Quick Bite"! The Service - 4 Stars (18%) Service was impeccable, interactive and sociable. Cajun hospitality for sure. I wish all restaurants provided this level of service! We typically provide 20% or more for 5 star service on the pre-tax portion of the bill, 18% for 4, 15% for 3, 12% for 2 and 0% for 1 star service. The Food: Fired Oysters and Red Beans and Rice - 3 Stars - While down in bayou country I had fried oysters numerous times! These were good but not as plump as some I sampled. Nevertheless I would order them again. My party ordered several other entrees and there were none that disappointed, and the prices were very reasonable. Final Thoughts: During our week long foodie vacation to bayou country we ate at some of the finest restaurant, both great and small, and Abear's turned out to be one of the better experiences! I wish I had had the time to try a few more items, and do a better job of documenting my visit, but I have no doubt, Lord willing, Abear's and I will see each other again! I heave little doubt A-Bear's could do better than three stars on a good day.

I have a major problem with this place...they made me fat. The food is just so dang good. The catfish is amazing...I love the Poboys, and the bread pudding...whew!

Great Louisiana cookin'! I would have not found this place had I not been treated to lunch by a few locals. This place is smack dab in the middle of nowhere and the outside doesn't look like a place I would normally choose for lunch. I ordered the sausage and chicken gumbo...and oh man... it was awesome. Normally, the gumbo I get is mostly liquid, but this one is filled with sausage and chicken. Each time I pick up my spoon there is a pile of meat on it. They didn't skimp out! The only slight downside is that it wasn't spicy. Some people like it spicy but it was still good to me. I also heard that their desserts were good but I didn't have any. Maybe I'll come back here next time for some.

The food here, on its best day, is pretty average at best. I've been here quite a few times. However, this was always with vendors. I would never pay my own money to eat here, simply because their are much better places to eat. In fact, Mike's BBQ, which is about a minute down the street from this place, is much, much better. I will say the peach cobbler a la mode was actually pretty darn good. Other than that, though, the food is extremely bland. To be honest, some of it taste as if came straight out of the can.

Good Cajun style restaurant, food is mediocre at best if you are from here! If you are from out of town it's ok place to get some ok Cajun food.

Very good place to eat if you want authentic Cajun food! I got the lunch plate special, red beans & rice, it was great! I was enjoyed how friendly the servers and owner was. It was like eating at home. Amazing peanut butter home made pie!!

Nothing fancy, just good old southern cajun cooking. Try the gumbo.

My wife and I were looking to enjoy some authentic Cajun cuisine before heading out on a swamp boat tour and I can't imagine a place that would fit the bill better than A-Bear's. Whenever I walk into a small restaurant that's built in an old house and I see a bunch of locals enjoying their lunch and chatting it up with the staff, I feel like I'm on the right track. And such was the case with this quaint little spot. I ordered the Catfish A-Bear special (four fried filets topped with a savory butter-crab sauce). Despite how it sounds, the meal wasn't overly heavy. I don't eat fried catfish often, and this definitely met the high expectations I had for ordering it in south Louisiana. My wife had the chicken and sausage gumbo which was also quite good. The catfish special came with two sides, the first one being red beans and rice (which were unfortunately a little bland). The second side (potato salad) reminded us a little of mashed potatoes and was surprisingly delicious. And at $8.95 it made for a fairly good lunch deal. Arguably our favorite part of the A-Bear's experience was the Cajun country atmosphere and friendly service. Just to give you an example of the atmosphere... they had a sign on the wall that said the 52nd customer of the day would receive a free dessert (it appears that the number changes each day). Lo and behold, it was my wife's lucky day, so our waitress gave us the good news and my wife enjoyed a piece of chocolate peanut butter pie on the house (which she told me was rich, creamy, and delicious). All in all, I would highly recommend A-Bear's for anyone who's looking to sample some local Cajun flavor in Houma.

The food is very bland, very disappointing. The sweet potato fries were the only thing that was tasty. The potato salad tasted like Crisco and potatoes, with no seasoning, and the shrimp etouffee and red beans and rice were quite bland. I've had better cajun food in Houston! I've fun thing, they do offer free dessert each day, but I was not a fan of the food.

I have not been to A-Bear's in years but I can't forget their peanut butter pie!

Ate lunch here on my first day in Houma and liked it so much I ate lunch here the other two days in town also. Everything was good. Gumbo, po boys, fried catfish, red beans and rice, white beans and rice- all great. Three meals and not one bad item of food. Tastes like the kind of food my Cajun Grandma would make if I had one, and it was obvious that it was a place where locals went to eat. Even the sweet tea was awesome. Can't say enough good things about it, go here if you can.
(5)Rico C.
Maybe Rico favorite food on the planet. Many time I go here. Catfish a-bear and shrimp pirogue are what I want to die for (alway see yelp people write that. jaja.) I bring city girl there for friday music night with cajun band. One big family in back cook everything.

To be honest, I don't know how A-Bear's does it. One may look at the facade of the place and not trust it (as it is in an old house), and some of the portions and items may look rather generic (by South Louisiana Cajun Country standards), but they go above and beyond all expectations. The shrimp gumbo has small river shrimp and lots of rice--I am not a big fan of excess rice in gumbo and soups, but the seasoning puts the gumbo off the charts! The poboys are also excellent and very well seasoning. I think the seasoning is takes this place, which may look untrustworthy on the outside and rather "bland" with menu choices, and puts it as one of the best seafood joints in the Houma area. There are many seafood places in the Greater Houma area, and A-Bear's, in my opinion, ranks among the best. They also have a great peach cobbler, or so I am told, but I have yet to actually eat it--if it is as good as the rest of the food, then it probably exceeds most expectations.

Went for lunch with a local resident. I would never have found this place because it is off the beaten path. The building does not resemble a typical restaurant. It appears to be a house that was converted into a restaurant. They offer daily specials but I decided to try the Chicken & Sausage Gumbo which came with Potato Salad and fresh bread. I have never had a "real" gumbo prior to today. Each spoonful was loaded with meat. The broth was flavorful but I decided to add a little hot sauce to spice it up. I really enjoyed the potato salad and bread too! My lunch mates savored the bread pudding for dessert. Give this place a try. It will be worth your while!

We love this place! The charm alone was the best. Go on Friday nights when they have a band! Great experience for these transplanted Indiana Hoosiers !! Loved it

A-Bear is that wonderful diamond that you stumble upon and you realize you are in a little slice of heaven. The service is impeccable! We were greeted by Rachael as soon as we walked in. She sat us at a very nice table in the front. Our drinks and food order was taken promptly. Since it was Friday they offer all you can eat catfish! Now, there is this very cool duo playing Zydeco music. The music was hopping, the food kept coming and we had a great time. Since we were stuffed we ordered our desserts to go! All their desserts are made fresh! They offered the following: Bread Pudding with rum sauce Blackberry cobbler Peanut butter pie (oh my) Chocolate Peanut butter pie Coconut cream pie We ordered the bread pudding and coconut cream pie. Our overall experience was very positive and we loved that slice of heaven!
