Kelly’s Diner has been family-owned and operated by Kelly and Elaine Cormier for thirty-three years. All of the recipes have been developed by Elaine Cormier and Cindy Leger, who manages the diner. The menu consists of classic Cajun cuisine with a focus on creating home-cooked meals using specialty meats provided by the Meat Market attached to the diner. This ”hole in the wall” is a staple of Louisiana’s former capital city as many of the guests return day after day to sit and enjoy home-cooked Cajun meals such as red beans and sausage, smothered steak, crawfish fettuccini, crawfish étouffée, fried pork chops, corn and crab soup, gumbo, various po’ boys (e.g. fried shrimp, fried oysters, roast beef, etc.), and our ultra popular barbecue plate lunches consisting of chicken, beef brisket, pork-steak and pork ribs that are all marinated in Mrs. Elaine’s homemade barbecue sauce. The friendly atmosphere and soulful Cajun food provide guests with a diner to walk in and feel right at home.
