Evangeline Cafe brings the warmth and spice of Louisiana to an unpretentious South Austin dining room. Family recipes guide the gumbo, étouffée, jambalaya, fried oyster po'boys, boudin, Gulf seafood, and other Cajun comforts, with bread from a Lafayette bakery. Abita beer and occasional live music complete the bayou mood. Prices stay approachable, portions satisfy, and the hospitality makes first-time guests feel like regulars.
