Our story

Built for the table.

The Backyard is a Cajun-Filipino seafood restaurant that brings people together over a hands-on, messy, shared meal. Everything starts with the table: the food, the way it's served, and the people gathered around it.

Cajun spice, Filipino flavor

Our menu brings Cajun and Filipino flavors together: seafood boils with sauces from Ragin' Cajun to Adobo Butter and Bicol Blaze.

Boils, sides and sharing plates land in the middle of the table, and everyone helps themselves.

A little mess is part of it

The bucket comes out. The boil hits the table. Everyone gets involved.

It's hands-on, relaxed and social. Nobody stays tidy for long.

03

The space was built around it

The restaurant follows the same thinking. Communal tables, benches and open, casual seating.

The room is laid out so the food lands in the middle and everyone can reach it.

The table brings it together

Friends, families, travelers, big groups and small ones.

Great food, attentive service and a relaxed, welcoming room, every visit. One table, everyone reaching for the same pile. That's the whole idea.
