The menu at Cypress Grill combines tradition with innovation while staying true to the soulful essence of Cajun cuisine. Each dish promises a culinary adventure, beckoning all to explore the vibrant flavors of Louisiana. 

With a broad menu that includes brunch, there are too many options to highlight. Instead, we'll focus on top dinner options.  

Among the must-try dishes, the Atchafalaya Catfish is a winner, with fresh catfish filet fried or blackened and smothered with Crawfish Etouffée. Served over dirty rice with a choice of one side, Atchafalaya Catfish will whisk you to the French Quarter in no time!

Another crowd favorite, and a Southern staple, is the Shrimp & Grits. Picture fresh Gulf shrimp sauteed in a low-country gravy with andouille sausage and served over creamy cheese grits. It's comfort food heaven!

Handhelds like Po'Boys and Muffulettas come in various tasty combinations, while the salad and pasta options are equally impressive. In short, there's something for every palate at Cypress Grill.

No dining experience at Cypress Grill is complete without indulging in their specialty drinks. The Infused Bloody Mary stands out with vodka house-infused with jalapenos, serranos, anchos, poblanos, garlic, and shallots. This is combined with the spicy house-made bloody mix, pickled okra, and olive for a fiery concoction rich with flavors.

The Hurricane Cocktail will do the trick for those seeking something sweet with a kick. Its blend of rum and tropical juices transports you straight to Bourbon Street. 

Non-alcoholic options ensure every guest finds their perfect sip, like the homemade lemonade infused with fresh mint or the iced tea sweetened with Louisiana cane sugar.
