Amazing place to enjoy dinner and take in the sights and sounds of Bourbon Street. The evening i was there, they allowed me to eat upstairs on the Balcony. It was fabulous. Haun the manager on duty was great. He went well above to ensure my last evening in the French Quarter was one i wouldn't forget. I ordered the Catfish Platter was good and the Pecan Pie for dessert was delicious. If I'm ever back in the area, im definitely going back. Super big thanks to Haun for making a good experience to great.
I can’t even begin to explain how incredible the food here is. I got the crab claw appetizer and it is probably THE MOST delicious food I have ever had. The creole sauce is absolute perfection. The claws were cooked perfectly and just completely melted in your mouth. I also got the stuffed shrimp and substituted the fries for white rice. You’re going to want to do the same. Lay down some rice, cut up the stuffed shrimp, and pour the creole sauce over. Just trust me. Our server, Avis (so sweet!), and the new manager were so nice! They made sure we were taken care of and our service was exceedingly superb from the host to the end.
Great location outdoor eating on balcony. Food was great! We met a friendly hostess, did her job convincing us to come in. We ordered alligator bites DELICIOUS. I got 2lbs of crawfish, husband got alligator poboy. Food was hot n fresh. Husband's sandwich was dry, needed more sauce, asked server took so long to bring up he went downstairs to get it himself, of course sandwich got cold by the time he got the sauce. Needed refills on sweet tea (delicious btw) again had to go downstairs to find our server. Finally a manager came to our table wanted to know why he kept coming downstairs, explained the situation. He took care of our appetizer and drinks ($30). Which was great considering the lack of service. Would recommend this establishment just not upstairs. You'll be forgotten about. Would definitely try them again!
Food was subpar. First time in New Orleans and definitely wanted to try a seafood boil. It was decent at best. Underwhelming for my expectations for a boil in NOLA. Pretty dry. Barely any seasoning to soak up. The chicken sandwich was entirely too dry. Our server apparently was attempting to run the bar and the floor. The floor definitely got overlooked. My drink ran dry for 15 minutes and as a server, that is unacceptable. Also, there were other servers walking by but they definitely were not aware of their surroundings or they just don't help each other out.
Sandy & Johann, thank you for making my last meal in Nola extra special. The food was exquisite, i’m glad I tried the real staples aside from Popeye’s lol! My taste buds will surely miss the taste of your Jambalaya and Crawfish Etouffee. I’m glad I stumbled upon your place, what a treat ☻ Oh and the Pecan pie (ala mode) was to live for ♡︎
