Napoli's is located at Jones Road and Grant Road. It is more on Jones set back a bit from Grant on the northern side.
It is a family Italian restaurant. They also have a mighty fine pizza. What I normally get though is the Manicotti. The cheese inside this tube of delightful taste is so creamy it melts in your mouth.
However before you even get to that part you are given the choice of house or caeser salad. My friends do not choose either of these. While they may be good you would be doing yourself a disservice. Ask for the small greek salad instead and prepare to have your taste buds tantalized. With the capers, feta cheese, calamata olives, homemade greek dressing, and the most amazingly sweet red onions. Seriously I would eat that onion like an apple, and I am here to tell you friends I do have an onion threshold. These are unlike any I've had before. Love the salad, can you tell? They also serve Italian bread with butter. I like to sprinkle a little sea salt on the situation. So good.
Back to the Manicotti. It is served bathed in sauce and covered with mozarella cheese. If you ever see me there and are seating near me forgive the noises you hear coming from my table. I am in heaven for those six to seven bites. I always have leftovers, because after bread, salad, and one Manicotti I am completely satisfied.
I am very lucky as well, because they deliver to my house. I can not tell you how awesome it is to be able to eat that entree when I do not feel so well.
I would definitely recommend going to Napoli's and enjoying some down home Italian food.

Hanks Cajun Grill
A good friend of mine took me to Hanks Cajun Grill. She said that it is her favorite place to get crawfish, and not only when in season, but all year long.
It was me, my friend, and my husband and we set off on a dreary Sunday afternoon headed to put in our bellies some delicious cajun food. Hank's is located off of Highway 6 near Clay Road.
First I ordered a few boudin balls, and they hit the spot for my constant boudin craving. The breading was tasty; the only thing I felt was lacking was in the spice department. They were served with ranch a simple sprinkle of cajun seasoning in it would have solved the issue. The crawfish I ordered tasted so good, but I would have ordered the medium spice, because I do enjoy a bit more burn. My friend had scared me into ordering the mild, because she said that sometimes the mild is even pretty spicy. Luckily I got to polish off my husband's rest of his medium spice. My husband also ordered garlic on his, and I am really thinking that is the way to go.
If you order two pounds you should be good, but if you usually put away a lot of crawfish like my friend she ordered four pounds and ate every last bit of it. She also ordered the Mardi Gras Oysters and let me have one. Heaven on a half shell I tell ya!
My husband also ordered some fried crab claws, which were yummy, I would like to tried the grilled version. After we had put back a decent amount of crawfish my husband ordered some fried aligator which was pretty good too. It kind of reminded me of chicken fried steak to be honest, maybe a bit chewier.
Overall I thoroughly enjoyed Hank's and will return often.
