The story
From the owner
West of Orleans brings Cajun cooking to Ventura County with house-made classics run by chef and owner Marcus.
The menu centers on Louisiana staples—jambalaya, seafood gumbo, fried shrimp po'boys, and red beans and rice—alongside house specialties like chardonnay chicken and tri-tip. Their cornbread is a standout, as are the desserts like banana pecan spiced bundt cake. Fresh ingredients and consistent execution keep regulars coming back weekly. The team treats every dish with care, whether you're ordering a holiday dinner for six or stopping in for lunch.
