I don't have anything to offer on recommendations... it's been many years since we've explored restaurants there, but I was going to ask before you posted that if they knew the difference between New Orleans cuisine and Cajun food.
I live in GA and when I tell someone that my wife is Cajun and we enjoy the food, the first thing they usually say is something like "we love the Cajun food in New Orleans."
So maybe what they are seeking is a New Orleans food experience???
If I'm visiting New Orleans, I would rather have an excellent example of the city's food than an average example of Cajun food if that is what it comes down to.
Just a thought.

I don't know of a restaurant where you can get what you describe in your original post. You can certainly take them to a number of places with gumbo if that will serve the purpose, but otherwise, you should tell them that New Orleans doesn't have pure Cajun restaurants, but there's plenty of good food native to New Orleans and Louisiana. Otherwise, just lie and tell them they are eating Cajun food.
ETA: You could try Royal House which serves gumbo, jambalaya and etouffee. I haven't had any of those dishes there, so I can't vouch for the food. I've had the chargrilled oysters which are good.
