Bayou Bar & Grill

The Bayou Bar & Grill was established in 1987, by local Chef Michael Cahal, formally trained under Chef Paul Prudhomme of K-Paul's, New Orleans. Chef Cahal wanted to bring a neighborhood bar & grill from The Big Easy to heart of Overton Square.  In 1994, The Bayou was purchased by current owners Bill & Carla Baker with partners Charlie Miller & Clay Allen. In 2008, The Bayou moved across Madison Ave. to its current location at 2094 Madison, once known as The Mississippi River Company; one of the Square’s first restaurants. Now in a much larger, renovated location, The Bayou Bar & Grill continues to offerNew Orleans style, Cajun specialties like Muffalettas, Po-Boys, Jambalaya, Gumbo, Oysters, Etouffee, Red Beans & Rice, and much more!
