Let me start with this... I am a New Orleans native and one thing I've learned to understand that everyone from New Orleans cannot cook and definitely don't understand that timeliness is imperative. We visited this food truck on our way from Austin back to Dallas and it was an experience that did not meet my expectations of a NOLA distinction. We were excited to get some NOLA flavors for our road trip, but it didn't work out the way we expected.
While the owner and the young lady on the register had pleasant attitudes... The prices and food quality did not impress me! We ordered Voodoo Wings, Fried Shrimp platter, soft shell crab and a boudin link. Our total came up to $49. Being a business owner of a Cajun Catering company I understand food prices has increased, but the food quality and service should be top notch to balance the price increases. Soooo the wings were not seasoned but just fried and covered in sauce, the shrimp and soft shell crab was saturated in oil. While the flavor was there, the saturation of grease killed it all. To add, I paid $8 for a small soft shell crab without all the legs and connected parts. Lastly, The Boudin taste like breading dressing in the casting.
In addition to that experience the food took over 40 min to prepare ! I'm sure this particular feedback should not be a shock to the owner as several patrons have already made mention of this. Yelp is a platform that any owner should value because this is where the customer gives feedback that can either hurt or help your business.
I hope Da Boot make the necessary changes necessary to keep their customers happy!
