I am at a conference and CCC is just around the corner from the Hyatt. It’s my first time here and I would recommend this place for lunch every time. The Cajun chicken was fantastic and the rest of the comfort food was delicious. The cost for 2 was only 23$

I love this place. The grits are always the best consistency and the eggs are always right. I love the meatloaf, chicken, biscuits, and the sweet potatoes. YUM YUM! NOW lets talk about this GUMBO! The best chicken and sausage gumbo in the city and trust me I know gumbo. IT is always seasoned very good with plenty of meat. Get the large, thank me later. The staff is always patient and greet you when you come in. Please tip these ladies, they work hard.

I had an amazing dining experience at Catty Car Corner Restaurant! The spicy Cajun chicken was perfectly cooked, accompanied by flavorful green beans and scrumptious southern-style mac & cheese. The sweet potato added a delightful touch to the Cajun southern comfort food. The sweet tea was a great match, blending perfectly with the meal. A must-visit spot for delicious comfort food!

Love this place for breakfast or lunch. Everything bagel sandwiches, life changing. Also you’ve been warned if you get the spicy chicken, be PREPARED. It’s HOT!!! Everything is always so good here. Sandwiches are always stuffed. Gumbo is always delicious. Also don’t forget to grab a brownie. To die for!

I ordered over the phone and the Customerservice was really good. I had there fried pork lunch special because I wanted to try it from “the south” and trust me it was worth it. I picked up my food and that place definitely was packed without a doubt. Once I got back to my room and tried my food, I fell in love. I’m going back today lol …. I may try the fried shrimp.
