Bayou

240 The name Bayou implies Louisiana, but the music and decor here have none of the trappings; no blaring Zydeco music, no Mardi Gras beads and no unnecessary clutter. The menu does focus on Cajun food, but adds creative twists to Southern ingredients. The gumbo, which appears as an entre with the name Les Betes De La Mer gumbo ($24), is a medley of seafood with green lip mussels, shelled shrimp, scallions and okra, which is used as a thickener rather than roux. The jambalaya is spicy and imaginative and, like all entrees, is beautifully plated. The restaurant overlooks the river, and in warmer weather opens an outdoor deck with views of the wooded hillside.
