Dodie's Cajun Allen (formerly The Cajun Place)

The crawfish was amazing. We went to the Cajun restaurant in Mckinney first and the crawfish was nasty. We paid our bill, left and went straight to Dodie’s. A huge difference in taste and quality!

Best Atmosphere in Allen. Dj on weekends only place in suburbs that you can actually get up and dance. Really good happy hour specials and $5 food, you cant beat that anywhere. Overall good service will defiantly be back,

The reviews aren't good but my experence was. I had the Charlie's tacos recomended by my server Amanda who was very helpful. They took a little long to come out which was my only negative. Nice outgoing staff, good drinks, and my meal was good. No complaints here

Fish Tacos Love at first Bite. I wish I could say that everything on the menu is great, but the truth is I'm stuck in 2nd gear I keep ordering the same two items every time I go the Grilled Fish Tacos with a starter of onion rings. You best be hungry because what they call fish tacos are more like Fish Fajitas. This huge filet of grilled fish (plain grilled or blackened seasoned) comes to the table atop a bed of grilled sliced onions and poblano peppers in a sizzling cast iron fajita skillet with a side of red beans and rice along with another plate filled with pico de gallo, sour cream, guacamole and shredded lettuce. You can select one type of the 3 wraps: flour tortillas, corn tortillas or crisp iceberg lettuce. For an appetizer, I always order the onion rings; they are simply the best in town honestly. Sweet onions deep friend in a light cornmeal coating. The only drawbacks that I see is that inside, the noise level can get pretty loud during busy times making it hard to carry on a conversation with others at your table. They do have ample outdoor covered seating with an industrial size fan to keep the air cool. also, they offer a private room for small parties. Despite the noise level, the quality and great taste of the fish tacos keep my husband and I coming back on a weekly basis. And one last note: Look for the fish tacos on the very back of the menu towards the bottom. You would think that they would put them on the first page!

The Super Bowl was starting and this was close by. I would not have chosen it for the menu, but it was a good place to watch the game. Lots of tvs and very loud. We had the wings good, the red beans rice (had to kick it up with hot sauce) and the fried brownie yum. Good service even during a busy game.
