The chef behind Roswell cajun restaurant Adele’s, which closed at the end of last year after a decade, is back in the same space with a similar concept.

Owner-chef Marc Wegman opened Wegman’s Bayou Louisiana Kitchen earlier this month at 1169 Canton St., offering a menu similar to Adele’s, which shuttered in November 2021. Adele’s originally opened on Holcomb Bridge Road in 2011 and moved to its Canton Street location in 2017.

Look for a variety of po’boys and dishes like red beans and rice, crawfish etouffee, gumbo, seafood served grilled, fried or blackened and beginets.

The original bar was extended, and the full bar also offers drinks from a frozen daiquiri machine and a selection of zero-proof cocktails. Wegman’s has a heated portico, and a patio that will open in the coming weeks.

“It will feel familiar, like a decade-old neighborhood favorite but there’s a renewed energy in here that I think everybody will feel as soon as they walk in,” Wegman said in a prepared statement.

Wegman’s is open from 11 a.m.-9 p.m. Tuesdays-Thursdays, 11 a.m.-10 p.m. Fridays, 9 a.m.-10 p.m. Saturdays and 9 a.m.-9 p.m. Sundays. On Feb. 1, Wegman’s will begin opening Mondays from 11 a.m.-9 p.m.

In addition to dine-in service, the restaurant offers takeout via its website and delivery through DoorDash.
