What to Know Before Visiting Cajun Jimmy's
Louisiana-style cooking, a bar, and a seafood counter sensibility on Ocala's east side.
Fish From the Restaurant's Own Boats
The restaurant's website states that its fish is fresh daily and comes straight off the owners' own boats. The Crystal River location sits on Florida's Gulf coast, which puts the Ocala dining room about an hour's drive from the water the seafood comes from.
A Cajun Menu, Not a Boil Bag
Unlike Ocala's build-your-own boil restaurants, Cajun Jimmy's runs a plated Louisiana menu: seafood gumbo, po'boys, jambalaya, crawfish etouffee, stuffed shrimp and Sue's Famous Crab Cakes, plus raw oysters by the dozen, seasonal boiled crawfish and a Low Country Boil Platter for one or two. The posted menu also lists burgers and sandwiches made with local beef, salads, a kids menu and a separate gluten-free menu.
Beer, Wine and a Full Liquor Bar
The restaurant serves beer and wine and has a full liquor bar, per its website. Dine-in and takeout are offered, and the posted menu puts most seafood entrees between $23 and $36 with two sides.
Waitlist and a Small Private Room
The website offers a Toast waitlist link for the Ocala location. The restaurant also mentions a small private room for parties of up to 8 people, and the menu notes an 18 percent gratuity on parties of 8 or more; call ahead to ask about the room.
The Menu at Cajun Jimmy's Seafood Seller & Cafe
The 2025 menu posted on seafoodsellerandcafe.net is divided into starters; gumbos, soups and salads; po'boys; burgers and sandwiches; raw and steamed shellfish; entrees; sides; a kids menu; and a separate gluten-free menu with its own shellfish and entree lists. Prices are printed on the menu: seafood gumbo is $10 a cup or $13 a bowl, po'boys run $15 to $19, and most entrees with two sides fall between $23 and $36, with oysters at $22 per dozen and crawfish, crab legs and scallops at market price. Prices can change, so the current menu is best confirmed on the site or by phone.
The dishes the menu marks as Seafood Seller signature items, together with its Cajun staples, read like a Louisiana greatest-hits list:
