Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"Been here twice and had a great time each time. It's usually $10-$25 a person if you want to catch a band. Tables are also first come first serve. Also it gets packed in there during bands so get there early if you want a table."
"Our family and friends visit Gilligan's very often! You won't find a better business owner with a heart full of love to share with all of their customers. I have personally witnessed this business donate to a number of different organizations and groups supporting the locals. The food is always amazing and delicious! It's BYOB, but if you forget there are always new friends to be made that will more than likely share what they have with you. There is also a liquor store less than a mile down the road. If you go here, you will find something on the menu that you love. From delicious BBQ (those pork ribs and brisket! YUM!!), a hamburger... crabs , boiled shrimp or crawfish! Nothing fried, but the potato salad, cole slaw and beans are all wonderful. The staff is all friendly and will make sure that you are taken care of. We love us some Gilligan's on the bend with the new (a couple of years now) owners!"
"Great place for Crawfish! Always cooked perfectly with a great spice level. Also solid BBQ options but the sleeper here is the smoked burger. Outside of the food the owners are the nicest people around and do absolutely everything to ensure a great experience. Cant speak highly enough and will visit every time I am in town."
"The staff and owners are so friendly. Food is outstanding. Eating here weekend after weekend, every meal was great. Can't say enough about how fun, friendly, this place is. Thank you for everything to the Jennifer and the staff."
"We had a fantastic dinner here the other night. The owner was lovely and set us up with a seafood dinner complete with shrimp, crab, sausage, potatoes, corn AND extra sauces. Don’t forget to BYOB like we did! Highly recommend for authentic Louisiana food and charm."
"Awesome little spot, nothing but good vibes. the crawfish and shrimp were well seasoned, just the right amount of spice, and perfectly cooked. My kiddo loved his burger. Only managed one picture before they were devoured. I don't know what they call the sauce sent out with the crawfish but it was so good."
"I love an open air setting, and this one is excellent!! Food was cooked and seasoned perfectly, and the service was friendly and fast. Definitely recommend."
"Tonight was my third time being at this place. And I find it to be a very lay back. What to get music and fun? People and food is awesome as well. We'll be back again and again. Thank y'all for your service"
