Papa Dubi's - Albertville

Full disclaimer, I 'm from New Orleans so my 'bar ' is higher than someone not as familiar with good Cajun food. Papa Dubis is very popular with the locals. They seem to focus on a variety of sauces (Imperial Sauce, Lobster Sauce etc that you can pair with rice. Being from New Orleans I was not familiar with either sauce, as crawfish and shrimp are more common than lobster, which is something you might find on menus in a restaurant up North (Maine . They do order in authentic french bread from New Orleans (great! , but the two times I ordered a poboy the bread was stale and the restaurant was not overly generous on the fried shrimp. They also pressed the sandwich, which most in Louisiana would not do as it just made the stale bread even crunchier (I ate the shrimp and left the bread on the plate . Same when I ordered their special of the day, crawfish pasta. Maybe 10 tiny crawfish tails with it mostly being pasta and sauce. Their gumbo is popular, but my cup of gumbo tasted like rice and brown gravy (something you would eat with pot roast , and I didn 't see any shrimp or sausage. All this to say.. if you like food with flavor/spices, and you are not super picky on it being 100% authentic, give them a try and see if it 's for you. In my opinion, the best thing there are the onion rings, live music some nights, and the dessert specials (bread pudding etc Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $20–30 Food: 3 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 4
