never been but everyone says it's great. let us know.
Fried Alligator is outstanding at The Cabin!
I can't get past ordering the Crab AuGratin everytime I go.
Try the red beans and rice as a side order.
It's all good!
Man, now I'm getting hungry
Lots of history there too...

I'm gonna have to ruin that streak. I know way too many people that have gotten sick after eating there. The food may be good but I stopped taking my chances after a large group from work got sick. YMMV
I've eaten there once. Food was alright. An ex-girlfriend of mine used to cook there, and she knew how to cook a good meal, so I have no big complaints about it.
Would I eat there again? Probably not. I don't like being in that area too much, and it isn't by anything. Only time I'd go is if it were for another rehearsal dinner (which was the only reason I went the first time).

We have eaten at The Cabin for years; it is a favorite stop on our way from Texas or Lafayette back to N.O.
The "Jumbo Fried Shrimp" is always wonderful. We have tried almost everything on the menu and have NO complaints !
We frequently meet family members from Baton Rouge, Crowley, or Lafayette there for a late Sunday lunch get-together.
We are in the neighborhood frequently, as our airplane is hangared at L38 Airport, less than a mile away; and, my cousin has a business just down the road.
Despite the naysayers above, this is a first-rate place and should be tried.

We used to go there for lunch from work occasionally and I was never that impressed enough to drive past Hymel's to go there.
It's a matter of taste, but several people did get sick after eating there and this was 20y+ ago.

Mmm, Hymel's fried shrimp. I love their King of England goblets they serve their drinks in. Bring me more mead, wench!
Tell me more about Hymels...
We used to go to the cabin occasionally when we lived in Laplace. It was OK. Nice atmosphere. Nice ride. Personally, I'd rather go to Catfish Charlie's in Hammond though.
Or Drago's in Metairie.
We went to Houston's for the first time in years a few weeks ago. That was incredible... much better than it used to be. Bit on the pricey side though. Not someplace for every weekend.

Hymel's is a bar, restaurant, and filling station about four miles south of the Sunshine Bridge on LA-44 in St. James Parish.
It had been there a while when I moved down here in 1967. Beer was thirty cents a can then.
They used to have the tables covered with newspapers, removing the soiled ones in between customers, but the food cops put a stop to that and they used butcher paper.
The plant I worked at was three miles past Hymel's and it was the only place we could practically eat at away from the plant. Hymel is the family name. The current owner's grandfather opened it.
Really good food at reasonable prices. Typical Louisiana seafood restaurant. They serve draft beer and iced tea, separately of course, in frozen, 24oz mugs. They may serve Cokes that way, too, but that's a lot of Coke.
They are open daily from about 1100 until 2100.
