Good blues and jazz on the house music. Great ribs and the sweet potato fries were light and fluffy. The cole slaw wasn't a mayonaise type, I think it was made with vinegar. Very refreshing. They had a number of beers I had never heard of and they all were good.

From the outside the restaurant is not very impressive but the staff are friendly and the food was exceptional. We had the Blackened Catfish, Ribs, Sweet Potatoe Fries etc and everything was really good.

Look behind the Shell station. It is order at the counter but staff checked to see if we had been there before and explain the process. Ordered full rack of ribs, blackened catfish poor boy and blackened shrimp poor boy. There wasn't a scrap left. Enjoyed the smoked beans and cole slaw for sides.

This is THE BEST cajun food we had on our trip to Grand Canyon and Sedona last week. We had shrimp po-boy, catfish po-boy and blackened catfish and each of these was excellent with perfect spice and sauces, All their sauces are home made and it is evident in the taste. The prices are super reasonable and the staff and... More

Had the burnt ends with the smoked beans. The smoked beans are out of this world, and the burnt ends were seasoned perfectly. The only drawback is I would have liked a larger portion, then again this plate was only 10 bucks.

Cajun in Flagstaff? You betcha! Satchmo's is located at the end of an unassuming strip mall off the main drag and fourth street. The food is out of this world, enjoyed to the sounds of Louis Armstrong Junior, Americas own "Satchmo". Catfish or shrimp po' boys, pulled pork, etc. All delicious and quickly prepared. Order at the counter then sit... More

This is #9. I would probably choose from 1-10. Mostly fast food quality choices otherwise. Had an ok meal. At least no MSG! Jambalaya has nice spicey flavor. Catfish was a little undercooked. Overall good for passing through. Great music and staff.

I read about Sachmo's on yelp and wanted to try it. My husband and I have lived in the area for many years and had never heard of the place. I am so glad we found it!! The ribs were fantastic, as was the fried catfish po boy. The cole slaw was very tasty, vinegary,a little spicy, and a little... More

I am from Georgia, and we have fantastic BBQ there for much lower prices, so I guess I am spoiled. I enjoyed Satchmo's, though. I had a pulled pork sandwich plate. The sandwich was a nice size, and the sauces were good. The pork had a nice flavor but was a little dry. My husband had the brisket which was... More
