What People Are Saying About Stevie's Creole Cafe & Bar

In Short – Stevie's--adorned with vintage posters of African-American legends in music, movies and sports--is packed with suburbanites starving for a cool place to kick it. Down-home cooking spotlights starters like catfish nuggets and fried Cajun shrimp, which are sized like entrees. Jambalaya comes in a Creole sauce with shrimp, chicken and spicy sausage. Ladled over rice, seafood gumbo includes crab legs, chicken, sausage and shrimp. Leftover room is filled by bread pudding with rum sauce and candied pecans. –

This place steals from its customers. The menu reads (at the bottom of page one) $25 minimum per person on show nights or subject to a cover charge. Well my party and I spent well over $25 per person and we were still charger a cover charge. When I spoke to the manager I was told, the menus are old and it’s too expensive to purchase new ones. Give me a break, the real deal is you like stealing from your customers and last time I checked that was illegal.
- Pros: none
- Cons: steals from its customers

Stevie's is lucky a rating is required...I never write reviews! Since I'm not a food critic I feel like "who am I to say what's good or bad" However my experience (or should I say my non experience) at Stevie's yesterday left me no choice. I have to speak up! This place is horrible! No really...it's bad! Don't ask me how the food was because I couldn't eat. The complete lack of customer service and the foul smell ( a mix of B.O. ,mold, and pork product) made me loose my appetite. And I was starving when I went in! As were the 3 other people I came with. We walked in, waited for what felt like an eternity for someone to greet us, and when they never did we walked to the bar looked around, and walked out. Oh yea but on our way out a waiter walked by to drop off "food" to a patron. A plate of gravy with a side of chicken. If we weren't already in Encino and came from weho just to eat here we would've been pi**ed! I was ashamed that I had suggested it after seeing the sign creole cafe. So to wrap this up... just don't go there. Don't spend hard earned money on cr*p! Save the money & plan a trip to New Orleans. And by the way chicken & waffles is not creole! And another thing if they have an A someone paid someone off!!!!!!!
- Pros: it's next door 2 Johnny Rockets where u can actually eat
- Cons: everything
