Did the walk-in option at Blue Bayou on 3/27/26 with my husband, both of our first times (a dream come true!). It was interesting walking-in. The hostess at the front sort of seemed reluctant to give us a table, but anyway, we got in around 6:00pm after asking twice within 5 minutes. (We were told it would be a 30-40 minute wait, but ended up getting seated right away.) We shared the 70th Celebration Prix Fixe meal which included an appetizer, entree, and dessert. The appetizer was a Vegetable Hearts Salad which was just okay! I didn’t really like how all the dressing was at the bottom of the bowl, so we were confused but ended up figuring it out and mixing it ourselves. Would rate that a 6.5 or 7/10. The entree was the Ribeye Steak and Prawns with Western Style Butter. Okay this dish was 10/10!!! We asked for the steak to be cooked medium rare. It did come out more in the rare side, but it tasted SO good. The butter flavor reminded me of movie-theater-butter. The prawns tasted good. The baked potato came with cheese, bacon bits, green onion, and sour cream on the side; it was good too. The asparagus was soft and had a plain flavor but I didn’t mind that. We really enjoyed the entree as a whole. The dessert was a Chocolate-Pistachio Cheesecake which my husband had since I am gluten intolerant. He rated it 8/10. For myself, I got a separate dessert order, the Petite Sundae, which just came with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, Oreos as Mickey ears, sprinkles, and chocolate syrup. Can’t go wrong with the vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, and chocolate syrup! I didn’t eat the Oreos, and felt like the sprinkles were way too hard. I’d give that a 8/10. Our total came out to $111.25 with an order of Coke (which was refillable). The service was generally good, it seemed to vary by table. The ambience was nice even though we sat furthest from the Pirates ride. Overall, we were really glad to have had dinner there as it was our goal for the trip. I’m not exactly sure if I would come again. Maybe! Definitely great to try at least once.
