We had a wonderful dinner at Seaworthy! The oyster selection was top notch. Fresh and perfectly shucked. We also enjoyed the crab dip and crawfish roll. The cocktails were delicious and balanced. We had the Holy Water- presentation was fun, drink is on the sweet side. The place was small, but definitely cozy. Perfect date night..

I was rather ignorant of anything about NewOrleans having never been in these parts before so TruthBeTold the 4-6PM 🦪😊hour clinched the win to go here on 10Jun26 and it was a great decision. I am not so eloquent with descriptions but the 2nd floor rustic architectural atmosphere was like eating in a 1900’s French bistro(?) and the doz WildGulf LA oysters were so fresh - like no smell at all - for anyone who hasn’t had oysters this would be a great first choice! I love 🦪🦪 so these were a real treat! The accompanying homemade crackers were so sturdy and crunchy and like - Can we get three orders to go? The frosty pint of Urban South Paradise Park hit my thirst-slaking button and we also had six gulf shrimp, grilled WildGulf oysters and the okra - that really needs a spoon and some bread to eat up the amazing sauce. Seaworthy is definitely worthy of your next visit into the NOLA foodie universe. So glad we came here! Worthy of lightening any bank account with such great service (Angie was awesome🥰) and food.

Seaworthy was the perfect way to end our culinary trek—we came in craving some great oysters and left very satisfied. Even though we arrived close to the end of their shift, the crew was super cool, welcoming, and accommodating. Most of the oysters were already sold out, but they guided us to some delectable options that definitely hit the spot. Great vibe, great service, and a solid way to wrap up a food-filled adventure.

WOW. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere, food, and service were everything you want from a truly great dining experience. We started with the caviar flight, ceviche, and squid—each one was exceptional and set the tone for the evening. For entrées, we enjoyed the shrimp and grits, halibut, and lobster roll, and every dish was incredible—perfectly prepared, flavorful, and beautifully presented. What truly elevated the experience was our server, Delphenia. She was incredibly knowledgeable, not just about the menu but also about New Orleans history, which added a special and memorable touch to the night. Overall, this was an unforgettable evening and an absolute must-go when visiting New Orleans. We can’t wait to return
