Tad's Louisiana Cooking | Our Story

From Eunice, Louisiana to Your Table

Tad's Louisiana Cooking started with 25 years of secret family recipes and one big idea — that Texas needed real Cajun food. Here's how it happened.
25 Years in Eunice

25 Years in Eunice

Before Tad's existed, the family spent more than 25 years running DC's Sportsbar and Steakhouse in Eunice, Louisiana — perfecting recipes that never left the kitchen. Those recipes became the foundation for everything that followed.

In February 2014, the family headed west to Katy, Texas. When crawfish season hit and the mudbugs came straight from Louisiana ponds, word spread fast.
A Real Gathering Place

Tad's Louisiana Cooking grew into what it was always meant to be — a bar, a patio, a game room, a place where strangers become regulars and every night has a reason to show up. Always a TaD better.
The Food Says It All

The Food Says It All

Crawfish étouffée, fried alligator, boudin balls, all-you-can-eat catfish, and the homemade tartar sauce that regulars insist every first-timer has to try — this is Cajun cooking rooted in family tradition, not a recipe card.

From Katy to College Station, Lake Charles to Youngsville, every Tad's location carries the same Eunice DNA — homemade food, cold drinks, and a community that keeps coming back. Le bon temps roule.
