We came here for beers after Acme. Decided to grab a few oysters while sitting at the bar. To my surprise, the oysters here were awesome and better than Acme. The cocktail sauce was on point!

In house brewery, I liked their Red Stallion beer, and the food was excellent. Great service by our waitress, and it was a pleasant surprise to have live Jazz music during dinner.

Preferred the German sausage over the Gator one. Note that beer flights are preset, so order the six sampler to try them all. My personal faves were the IPA and Winter Seasonal (Amber) 🍺

This place can get a bit busy, but if there's room grab yourself a space at the bar and try some good beers
Jake AycockMay 4, 2014
Best of both worlds, mix the Black Forest and the red stallion. They are both great on there own as well! Great place, great brews!
MaeJune 22, 2013
The gris here are not southern grits. They are like crispy fried rectangles. Totally disappointed in shrimp & grits. The softshell Po'Boy is my suggestion.

Best raw oysters in the city. Big, sweet, and expertly shucked. Lorenzo is a master!

I have been eating here for 15 plus years. On this trip had 10 people that ate 8 apps, 10 dinners, lots of beer and mixed drinks total bill $550 including tip. Great value in the quarter.

All of the beers are great, but for a real treat, get them to mix the Red Stallion and the Black Forest beers. That is my fave. Also, splurge and get the baked brie AND the Southern Crispy Duck. Read more

The oysters here are excellent. Everything else, including their beers, are meh. Stop in for dozen or so oysters.
Erin CNovember 2, 2011
This is one of my fam's fav dining spots in NOLA. Amazing ribs and outstanding bread pudding. Tuna & seafood noodles good too. Doesn't disappoint.
Joshua TannehillJuly 14, 2011
The calimari was different then any other (whole pieces) but really good. The jambalaya had chicken on the bone and fried shrimp with the tail. (not a fan). The Weiss brew was decent.
Melinda NallJuly 16, 2016
The food is bland&terrible! I used to go for the raspberry wheat ale, but they shortened it by 2ounces&charging the same, which is Crazy. Cuz it's already expensive, so I'm not going back.
Stefan BabichMarch 18, 2013
The Black and Red beer blend is the way to go. The Brie app is a must and the stuffed shrimp is good.
Ashley RobbinsDecember 31, 2012
Food is great, as are the drinks, and truly fantastic service, which is rare in the touristy areas of the city.
Franklin WallbrownMarch 8, 2013
Try the 5 Beer Sampler - Pilsner, Weiss, Spring Bock (special), Red Stallion, Black Forest (from lightest to darkest)
eric bornemannDecember 4, 2020
Decent beer and a great balcony with a nice view over the city.
Stew PrestonMarch 30, 2013
Great spot for jazz and fresh brew right across from the river.

My oysters were as big as 3"x2" - no joke! With that sweet flavor you only find in New Orleans.
Franklin WallbrownMarch 8, 2013
Try the Crawfish Etouffee - A little spicy for me, but I don't like spicy things. Still very good.
Michelle HarrisMarch 22, 2014
Very good hamburger. Nice atmosphere with awesome Bloody Mary's.
BlakeAugust 12, 2012
Try the Oyster Club - You wouldn't think it, buy fried #oysters pair WELL with avocado, sauerkraut and bacon!
Jeremy SchaeferJune 10, 2013
The pasta jambalaya is awesome! Great take on a classic New Orleans dish
Todd L.December 3, 2013
IPA was just okay but the Seafood Cheesecake appetizer was very good. And a jazz band!
cnelson ︻╦╤─November 5, 2016
Try the IPA. Hoppy without losing the Malt flavor.
Matthew GoodellAugust 8, 2011
The black forest is great by itself, sweet and stellar when mixed with the stallion. Ahi salad was amazing.
hooeyspewer .February 10, 2015
Worth a stop at the bar for a beer. They brew their beers in-house in small batches.
Jeff ShewanDecember 1, 2012
Mix the black and red beer. Oyster club and seafood cheesecake are good.
Christopher SprauJune 21, 2017
I tried the Red Stallion Black Forest mix. That was a great decision! Thanks for the tip!
Taylor BlackburnMarch 1, 2017
French Quarter Brewery with largely German style beers.
Tina BrownJanuary 25, 2018
Awesome beers, great food and our waiter was excellent!

Bar upstairs is a bit quieter during the day
JakeJanuary 26, 2016
Had their IPA, not bad at all. Got their pub glass too for a deal.
Marta SmithJune 2, 2013
OMG! Get the "Seafood Cheesecake." Unbelievable!
Jessica FloresMay 22, 2012
The ribs are delicious but they no longer serve them with Mac n Cheese. Bring them back!
ESTHERJuly 13, 2016
Craft beer on tap. Friendly employees but some look lazy.
Marvin CamachoMarch 10, 2012
Awesome appetizers! The baked brie with apple was delicious.
David SmagulaApril 14, 2011
Count me in on the mix of Red Stallion & Black Forest. It is absolutely incredible. Add in a dozen oysters = instant heaven.
Gary MorrillFebruary 3, 2016
Pretty good basic beer, not fancy but serviceable! Foods pretty good too.
Social News NetworkJune 21, 2012
The waiter may or may not get you to try the sampler, try it anyway.
John PaciniJune 12, 2010
If you ge the 4-beer sampler (5 oz each), you can add the seasonal beer to it (five 5 oz. glasses total) for just a dollar more.
Jerry DiceJuly 6, 2015
Decent brews in a cool saloon-like building in NoLa.
Floriane SiegelJuly 18, 2012
Make a reservation. They are on Open Table. Very fast service!
Hoppy's It's All BullshitMay 29, 2013
The black forest is out of the park good overall great place
Charmaine ReynaDecember 19, 2016
Read half the reviews then decided to stop by after shopping. The food and drinks were subpara to say the least. Only good thing about the evening was our waiter. Step up and better rep the Nola!
Urban MalagarieMarch 16, 2013
Best food and views along the riverwalk!
Robert Peterson-WakemanJanuary 20, 2012
The Weiss beer is nice, nothin too crazy, but smooth and easy to drink on a hot day.
Scott PJune 21, 2012
The burger is pretty good but you may want to bring your own ketchup. Only Hunt's is served here.
Michelle PrattMarch 29, 2014
Jack was the best waiter I've ever had. Hands down.
