Bobby Hebert's Cajun Cannon, Sports-themed American restaurant in Jefferson Parish, United States.
Bobby Hebert's Cajun Cannon is an American restaurant in Jefferson Parish, Louisiana, where regional Cajun and Creole dishes are served in rooms lined with sports memorabilia. The menu covers local seafood, crab cakes, alligator dishes, and po'boy sandwiches, all of which are staples of Louisiana cooking.
The restaurant was opened by Bobby Hebert after he retired from professional football and chose to stay in Louisiana, where he had built his career with the Saints. The place grew out of his desire to bring people together around two things deeply tied to the region: food and football.
The name "Cajun Cannon" was the nickname given to Bobby Hebert during his playing years with the New Orleans Saints, a reference to both his powerful arm and his Louisiana roots. Sports photos and jerseys cover the walls, making the connection between local football culture and Cajun food very visible.
The restaurant has several dining rooms and a dedicated event space, so it works for both small groups and larger gatherings. Booking ahead is a good idea, especially on weekends or when a Saints game is on, as the place tends to fill up fast.
Bobby Hebert grew up in Cut Off, a small town deep in Cajun Louisiana, and spoke Cajun French at home as a child, which was unusual even for someone from that region. That background runs through the menu, which leans toward home-style Cajun cooking rather than the more polished Creole dishes found in the city.
