Rikenjaks’ spacious patio fills up on Sundays for their Zydeco Brunch, but then again any day is a good day for chilling with your friends, family, and pets at this sweet spot. Indulge in Louisiana dishes such as alligator boulettes, a shrimp or catfish poboy, and even boudin! Rikenjaks is a hot spot in all seasons, but there’s nothing like enjoying Louisiana cuisine and brews in the summertime!
