Crescent City Grill

Crescent City Grill

3810 Hardy Street

Hattiesburg, Mississippi 39402

Crescent City Grill is also from the same family of restaurants as Branch and Purple Parrot Cafe which, after a little Google revealed, are owned by Robert St. John. Having my aunt and uncle swearing by his chain of restaurants, I have visited almost all of them in my one month or so trip here in Hattiesburg. So here is the restaurant which focuses on grill and a little more casual dining compared to Purple Parrot Cafe.

Got some nachos for appetizers. I can't stop snacking at it cause the cheese is so good. It's actually optional to add beef into it but we went for it anyway and it tastes so good. I personally hate jalapenos but my aunt and uncle are in love with them.

Crescent City Nachos Au Gratin: Spicy Cajun cheese, fresh salsa, bacon served au gratin with our sour cream, fried jalapenos, green onions, and homemade tortilla chips with seasoned beef.

A salad that comes with my entree.

House Salad: Mixed greens, cheddar and jack cheeses, roma tomatoes, peppers and Cajun croutons.

Crawfish Calzone: Stuffed with Louisiana Crawfish tails, blackened shrimp, caramelized onions, jalapeños and cheese; with creamy Parmesan spinach.

Here comes my entree. Don't be fooled. This is really a damn big plate with rice, bread and SO MANY SHRIMPS. My aunt figured that I would love it based on how much I love shrimps/prawns/ebi, and I did.

Shrimp Carnival: Generous portions of Shrimp Etouffee, Shrimp Creole, and Jumbo Fried Shrimp.

When I was asking for desserts, my aunt and uncle were shocked by how I still have space for desserts. I always have space for desserts!

I got myself a New Orleans Bread Pudding. It's so good. You can taste the Cinnamon and Vanilla. Sweet but not too sweet for me. With Raisins as it's base. Ohhh so good. So sinful.

So yeah. Another great place to eat at here. Completely justifiable as to why my uncle and aunt are so obsessed with their chain of restaurants cause it so good!
