Stepping into this small restaurant feels like walking straight into a somebody else's home. But unlike the awkwardness that would arise on such an occasion, the staff at Ragin Cajun is welcoming and ready to serve. The dishes are tasty, spicy Cajun specialties at their best, and the intimacy of the dining area makes it more credible the dishes were prepared especially for you. Another bonus is the view of the Shark River right across the way -- just one more feature to add to the sensation of not being too far from the bayou.
