If you can't find something you like in this menu then either you're doing it wrong or you just don't like cajun food at all. Everything is delicious! The staff is always friendly! I LOVE the papa!
Try the new hand-crafted sodas, made with real cane sugar... not that high-fructose corn syrup crap! My personal favorites are the ginger beer, root beer, red creme, cherry vanilla.... oh, all of 'em
Ashton KleemannOctober 7, 2014Unlimited sides include garlic stew, etoufee, bread pudding, cole slaw, cornbread, red beans, white rice, French bread, applesauce... Wow
Everything is good here. Cheezburger PoBoys. Catfish. Oyster. The étouffée.
- Ashton KleemannDecember 2, 2014Catfish. Po. Boy. Boiiiiiiii. Don't fuck up and order something else! The wait staff is amazing! Forever a fan.
Amber FoddrillApril 2, 2013Everything here is so good. You can't go wrong with whatever you order. Free unlimited sides and iced tea if you dine in!

JeannieJuly 9, 2013Loved it! Got the sausage po boy. Should have shared sandwich. Red beans and rice were great. Bread pudding was outstanding!
Rhonda ClarkMarch 4, 2013This place and those who work here are always amazing! Love the food the service and atmosphere! Great job Papa!
SarahNovember 28, 2014Unlimited sides - the etouffee is amazing! Smoked sausage po boy on soft bread was phenom.
This just in: they now make their own smoky hot sauce AND serve up locally brewed fountain sodas! Eat here. Trust me.
You can get French bread with voodoo sauce as a side! I want a gallon of voodoo sauce to put on everything.
Jeffrey LeForsMay 17, 2012Po Boys Po Boys Po Boys...can't get enough...and the City Market locale makes this great food even closer to my door.
Shibari QueteeApril 25, 2015Food is great. Always packed and busy when I have been there so the wait can be long.
Michel BishopOctober 30, 2015Everything is great, staff is wonderful and the owner is very engaging with patrons.
Kyle HamiltonApril 1, 2018Unlimited sides now cost 3$ when you dine in. What came with mine was enough food though.
Order the poboy. You will be completely happy, especially if you have a big appetite. Also, you get all the sides you want for free! They're all really good.
Get the Breakfast Po-Boy with Bacon. It'll change your life!
Love all the poboys but the sausage is the best! Go hungry nom nom!
Love the po-boys and cajun stew, red beans and rice, muffalettas, creole, and more. A hole-in-the-wall restaurant on Indy's east side that will leave you smilin'. Read more
Po boys for days, best bread pudding in the city, and the coolest croux
Jodi KrumelMay 24, 2012Hands down the best service I've had in Indy. Prompt, friendly and always correct.
Get any po'boy as entree, free unlimited sides include the stews.- Be sure and show up on Friday nights for Zeafood Friday! You may want to plan on getting there early though. The fresh stuff goes quick and they only serve fresh! Read more
- CBC! I usually get the chicken bacon cheddar with extra voodoo and sweet baby roux.
Ron BrockJune 8, 2012This place has the best bread pudding I've ever had. I eat here whenever I can.
Try an egg po-boy with your choice of meat. Awesome lunch.
Ray MillsMarch 11, 2011WOW...the chicken creole is so awesomely spicy...get lots of their amazing cornbread too.
Amazing food....truly amazing. Yes, the bread pudding is to die for...he wasn't kidding. Yum!!!!
Garlic(k) stew recently added. It's spicy and delightful.
You have to try Papa's special Poboys. The Cheezburger Poboy is great! Just had a Jockamo meatball Poboy!
If you want it extra spicy ask to make your poboy pissed off!

"Chicken creole, red beans & rice. Go early for jambalaya or its gone (hint: make MORE!). Hubby loves the crawfish etoufeé. As previous residents of Nawlins, Yat's is definitely authentic!"
