"Let me tell you something! If you’re looking for a true Cajun breakfast with a great atmosphere, this is the place to be. I met two of my friends for brunch on Sunday, and we thoroughly enjoyed every bite of the food. We started with some flavorful crab claws, though I wish there was more butter in the sauce to dip them in. Overall, I’d give them an eight out of ten. One of my friends had the shrimp bowl, which was delicious. The tomatoes, mushrooms, and other ingredients were all in season and very flavorful. I initially had the soft crab, but it was a bit too oily for me, so I returned it and got the shrimp bowl instead. My other friend had scallops and grits, which were cooked to perfection. We also enjoyed some French 75s and mimosas during a great time. The staff was incredibly attentive and accommodating. Although there was a slight wait, it was definitely worth it. I’ll definitely be returning when I come back. I highly recommend this place."

"Bearcat (CBD) location is busy & worth your visit! The breakfast menu is extensive and filled with flavor. I ordered the steak and eggs - I requested soft scrambled and received well done, but the flavor was good. The steak was just OK but not disappointing. The side of home fries were a bit spicier than I prefer. My boyfriend ordered the scallop & grits, which was a highlight. I was stopping myself from eating off his plate every couple of minutes. I don’t think the drinks were worth it (we tried two different ones - a coffee cocktail and another). Both left much to be desired."

"We’re from Florida and found this restaurant on TikTok, so we decided to give it a try. The first thing we ordered was the boudin egg rolls, and they were absolutely amazing — definitely a highlight. For drinks, I ordered an espresso martini. It was good, but it could’ve used some Baileys. My parents ordered Irish coffees, but unfortunately they weren’t hot at all — more like room temperature. When my dad mentioned he didn’t like his because of that, our server seemed irritated. We arrived and checked in at 10:20 and didn’t get seated until around 11:25, which was a long wait. After ordering our food, it took about 35–40 minutes to come out. Food-wise, shoutout to the cooks because most of it was delicious. I ordered the hot chicken plate — no major complaints, though the potatoes were cold (still flavorful). My dad ordered the lobster meal and really enjoyed it. My mom got the crab scramble, which I personally wouldn’t recommend. It was very fishy, and when I tried a bite, there was actually a shell in it. When we mentioned this to the waitress (about 10 minutes after our food arrived), she seemed visibly fed up with us, which was disappointing. Overall, the food is definitely good, but the service could use improvement. They also charge a 20% service fee for parties over two, plus a 3% health fee, totaling 23%. Personally, I feel like when restaurants do this, some servers may not be as attentive since the tip is automatic. The experience was okay — great food, but the service really affected the overall vibe."

"Bearcat CBD serves absolutely delicious food — I genuinely didn’t have a single complaint about any of the dishes I tried. It was one of the better brunches I’ve had in my life. That said, the atmosphere and service left a bit to be desired. The restaurant is very casual, bright, and energetic, but it can feel cramped and extremely loud, especially as it gets busy. The service wasn’t particularly attentive; for example, napkins had to be requested more than once, and our latte took a long time to arrive. We arrived around 8:45 a.m. on a Sunday and were lucky to get a table immediately. Shortly after, a line formed out the door. If we had had to wait, I might have found the experience frustrating. Overall, the food is excellent, but the combination of slow service, limited space, and the potential wait makes it a spot I probably wouldn’t return to regularly. Still, for a brunch lover who gets there early, it’s definitely worth trying."

"12/10 experience. Could not sing higher praise for Bearcat. Wait staff was extremely nice, helping us with recommendations, food selection and drink selection was perfect, and the food itself was phenomenal. Their attention to detail was outstanding - each of the mugs were handmade with a little bearcat on each of them. The plates also looked handmade and matched the aesthetic. Also, just a cute design all around. Recommend sitting outside on a nice day - we wish we did!!"
