New Restaurant Coming to Windsor Center

All signs point to an arrival of cajun and southern cuisine on Broad Street.

Dorothy & Leroy's motto is “If You Ain’t Ate At Dorothy And Leroy’s, You Just Ain’t Ate!”

The Windsor Locks-based restaurant plans to bring its cajun and southern cuisine to Broad Street in the near future, according to signs the eatery has placed in the windows of the old Whistle Stop Cafe location.

The restaurant, which first opened in Springfield, MA in the 1980's, has been in its Windsor Locks location for nearly two years, and features a menu chalk full of southern classics like fried chicken, pulled pork, barbecue ribs, black-eyed peas and candied yams alongside cajun specialties like jumbalaya, etoufee, catfish and a gumbo of the day.
