I adore this place. Free comedy show on Wednesday nights (they don't even bug you for tips, I'm sure buying a round is welcome). The food is incredible. Great Happy Hour from 5-8 with $5 drink and food specials. Go, you will not be disappointed. Unless you hate Cajun food, but why are you even looking at this place then?

The atmosphere of this bar/restaurant is unique on its own. It feels like a little piece of Louisiana in South Philadelphia. Definitely a great spot for casual dining or a place to bring your friends from out of town. The food is delicious! Where else can you find gumbo, jambalaya, or fresh seafood boils, which is literally steamy seafood in a bag with an assortment of sides?! Enjoy a beer and maybe even catch a live band while you're there.

Great atmosphere! On Saturday night they have a live jazz band and a fire in the fire place. Comedy is on Wednesday nights. The food was delicious. This is an awesome neighborhood gem. Such a warm inviting atmosphere. It was the perfect spot for catching up with friends over a few drinks and some shared appetizers.

Bringing Louisiana Cuisine and Brews to Philly!! The Shrimp Etouffee and the Acadia Breakfast Poutine were delicious; both dishes married the cajun and creole tastes of New Orleans with a slow tasty heat. The Bloody Mary was very tasty!

I recently visit this place because I heard they have the best New Orleans cuisine around and boy was I impressed!! I had the blackened catfish and it was very tasty yummy!!! Plus the decor brings you back to New Orleans without the plane ride also I'm a neat freak and I check everything I love how the dishes sparkled and the silver wear was clean enough that I can see my reflection that was a plus!!! Will be coming back soon!!!

Loved the drink selection and staff was very friendly. During our visit I had blackened catfish for the first time. Delicious but note to all: very spicy! The restaurant has put a lot of effort into creating an authentic NoLa vibe, would love to continue seeing more decorations and New Orleans themed events throughout the year

My cousin and her husband treated me to dinner at Arcadia. My cousin loves New Orleans and the food. We were greeted by the bartender and seated our selves. Very friendly neighborhood feel. I loved the place mats so I took pics of them. We loved our food. We had the fried chicken, corn bread, shrimp po boy, French fries, jumbalya, potatoe salad(yellow) and gumbo. Desert to go was benies (spelled that wrong). We ate everything! The chef/owner came out and chatted with us. It was a nice time. If you don’t like Cajun creole food just go to the nice bar they have. Everything is cooked and seasoned and particularly specific to the south Louisiana cooking. It was delicious. Bravo. Many Blessings.
