Cork's Cajun Fried Fish & Shrimp was founded by brothers Paul and Michael Mladenka, Louisiana natives who grew up fishing, hunting, cooking, and spending time outdoors with their family. Surrounded by strong culinary influences on both sides of the family, some of their earliest food memories were built around fresh seafood and meals shared with the people they loved.
FAMILY RECIPES, DECADES OF EXPERIENCE
Paul and Michael combined those family traditions with nearly 50 years of restaurant experience to create Cork's. The result is a fast-casual restaurant where authentic Cajun flavor, quality ingredients, quick service, and friendly hospitality all come together under one roof.
CAJUN COMFORT FOOD DONE RIGHT
Our menu celebrates the foods South Louisiana does best. Guests can enjoy Cajun fried fish, jumbo Gulf shrimp, po'boys served on Gambino's French bread, Louisiana crawfish étouffée, stuffed baked potatoes, fried pork chops, hushpuppies, beignet bites, and plenty of Southern sides.
FAST SERVICE, SOUTHERN HOSPITALITY
Cork's was built around a simple belief: good food brings people together. We take our food seriously without taking ourselves too seriously, creating a casual neighborhood setting where families, friends, coworkers, and seafood lovers can enjoy a satisfying meal without the long wait.
PROUD TO SERVE BATON ROUGE
Located on Government Street, Cork's is proud to serve the Greater Baton Rouge community with Cajun seafood, friendly service, and a culture of Southern hospitality. Whether you dine in, order online, or let us cater the whole crew, we want every visit to feel like a taste of South Louisiana.
