BON TON
LIKELY
ABOUT
Bon Ton’s menu is what people would probably categorize as Viet-Cajun (I first heard this term on an episode of David Chang’s Ugly Delicious), a fusion of Vietnamese and New Orleans Cajun cuisine. It’s heavily focused on seafood but there are some vegetarian gems like the falafel sandwich and papaya salad that are good alternatives!
Although Bon Ton has a special menu for brunch, I prefer the daily lunch/dinner menu. But you can add an egg to any of the regular dishes to make it brunch. It can be a bit loud at times because they have an in-house DJ, but it’s tolerable.
Don’t forget to take a picture of the neon “Fancy Service” sign or pose outside in front of the building’s pink exterior.
