Taste Budz Creole Kitchen has never disappointed when it comes to the food -- it's consistently delicious. However, the customer service could definitely use some improvement. Both times I visited, I noticed a lack of professionalism from the staff. The first time, the cashiers (who appeared to be a group of teenage girls) were whispering and laughing, which felt uncomfortable. On my second visit, I saw employees on their phones instead of attending to customers. One cashier even asked my boyfriend why he looked a certain way, and then tried to convince him to work on her sister's car.
Additionally, the music was much too loud during both visits. The first time, there was a DJ, and we could barely hear each other talk. Today, the music was still blaring from the back.
Overall, while the food is fantastic and I would definitely return, the restaurant would benefit greatly from better customer service training and more professional behavior from the staff.
We spent $72 and ordered the Cajun Shrimp Alfredo, along with cornbread, mac and cheese, greens, and yams as sides. The food was absolutely delicious and didn't disappoint--everything was flavorful and well-prepared. Definitely a great place to eat!
