Papion's Creole Bistreaux

The food! Was! Amazing! The people working here are fun and friendly- it was worth every penny. My fried shrimp had a light flavorful batter and the fries tasted perfectly crispy. I had a bite of the catfish and also delicious. The beignets were light and crispy on the outside and flaky on the inside. Love that!

We stopped into Papion’s for a late lunch and couldn’t have been more pleased with our choice. The shrimp poboy, gumbo and sweet tea were all great. However, the crawfish étouffée and bread pudding were outstanding! It’s a laid back casual setting with helpful staff.

Found this amazing restaurant on a whim. Food was top tier! Service was quick. Bobby provided us great customer service even when we arrived a hour before closing. The Mardi Gras nachos were my favorite. I am looking forward to trying other dishes from their menu.

Staying over at the downtown hotel I found this place as I was searching out shrimp Poboy while passing through for work. It was delicious and fresh and hot! The shrimp were large, lightly breaded and fried perfectly. They did a wonderful job and the quality shown through. There was a little bit of a wait for The to go order as I think that they were so busy they forgot about it, but I’m not gonna fault them for it. They were working hard. Their hospitality was wonderful and they were truly working hard for a lovely experience. Next time I stay in Shreveport on work, I’m definitely coming back and hopefully be able to eat-in this time! Thank you guys!

Decided to go here for date night. Easy street side parking. The outside could use a little bit more lighting. Once we entered we were greeted quickly. Like the way the tables were set up for two top on the left and four or more on the right. They didn't have any appetizers on the menu so we decided to get the Crawfish cheese bread as a side item first. It was tasty but it wasn't really hot enough. We got the Orleans pasta and gumbo as our entree. Both dishes were amazing extremely tasty, well seasoned, and served hot. We even found out if we can find the two sauces together it was an amazing mix. The owner just might make a new dish out of that. The interior was a classic black and white with just enough colored decor to make it charming. The music was awesome and thoroughly enjoyable.
