    If you aren't looking you might just pass this place by. Great Gumbo and the Barbecue Shrimp is a must. People claim you have to get the seafood platter if you enjoy fried goodies from the sea.

    Enjoyed my BBQ shrimp! Delicious shrimp cooked to heavenly perfection in butter, garlic, green onion and a potpourri of Cajun spices. Messy but incredible! Would purchase this dinner again! 😍

    Gentlemen, make sure you wear a shirt with sleeves. They won't seat you if you're wearing a tank top. However, if you are, you can run to the Walgreens on Canal and buy a t-shirt for $5.99!

    BBQ shrimp, chargrilled oysters, fried shrimp, oysters and crawfish etouffe were phenomenal. Our waiter, Alex, was spot on too.

    The charbroiled oysters were exceptionally good. The best I had while I was in New Orleans. I also had my first boil crawfish experience.

    Great food. Their speciality is fried seafood, but it's a light cornmeal batter. Unless it's broiled, I have yet to see any one person completely finish the whole fried seafood platter. It's that big!

    Going with a group of four? Gotta try the seafood platter! Easily feeds everyone with a variety of seafood: catfish, shrimp, oysters, crawfish balls, and crab cakes.

    Had blackened Mahi Mahi which was excellent. It's your basic diner type setup with great food. Bar is also pretty large and not far from Bourbon Street.

    Absolutely delicious, better than Acme Oyster. Get some boiled crawfish and the BBQ shrimp, be ready to get your hands dirty and dig in - SO awesome!

    The food here is amazing. We had the oysters, raw and grilled. The bartender was great he was very nice and informative . I wish I remember his name but you know who you are.

    If you order the BBQ shrimp, ask for a second napkin. They are SOOO good, and ENORMOUS! Even the appetizer size is plenty for a meal; 5 full shrimp in the dish.

    Absolutely better than Acme. Can't even compare the two. Crab meat au gratin actually makes my mouth water when I think of it. First place my girlfriend wants to go to when she gets in town.

    The Potatoes they bring out when you when you set down, Like bread, are GREAT. The Oysters were very good, and the signature charbroiled Oysters are to die for.

    If you like Bloody Mary's this is the one! Came with a HUGE boiled shrimp and small potato decoration. The drink itself was delicious.

    The Gumbo was excellent. And the Charbroiled Oysters were to die for and The Barbecued Shrimp is ridiculous! !!

    Favorite dinner I had during our 5 day stay in the French Quarter. All appetizers are delicious and the shrimp dip is a must.

    Be prepared to wait on the weekend, grab a couple drinks while you do. The BBQ Shrimp are legendary, you must get these. Also get boiled crawfish, but they run out fairly quick so don't show up late!

    Great food. BBQ shrimp, crawfish etouffe, Charbroiled oysters are awesone. You can get the etouffe as a side dish, try them all in a sitting!

    Great seafood and charred oysters are delicious. Much better than the Acme. Seafood platters are huge. Half platter serves two easily!!!

    Try to visit on a weekday, much less packed and shorter wait. Seafood is great, but the place clearly has become a tourist stop, so it's pricey. Plates are pretty big, so consider sharing

    If you are looking for good seafood that has local ownership and has been doing it for years and at a fair price, this is your place.

    Crawfish boil was great. BBQ shrimp were good as well, but be warned they boil them live so you have to devein them yourself or you'll be eating poop.

    The barbecue(creole sesonings) shrimp was amazing and you get a warm bread stick with it. The service was great as well.

    One of my favorite lunches! Kristen and I had the crayfish boil, oysters on the half, then a nectar soda float. Awesome. And Kyle is a great waiter!

    Cup of gumbo, half a pound of charbroiled oysters and three pounds of crawfish was just right for two people. Great service, too.

    Overwhelmingly touristy and food quality was only fair - onion rings were the best + bbq shrimp was pretty good once we de-shelled it + crab dip was not good at all... other location might be better!?

    Definitely a place on the must visit list when you come to New Orleans! There isn't anything not good on the menu... The large seafood platter can feed several people!

    The barbecue shrimp is wonderful whether you choose it for an appetizer or entree. You can't go wrong. The full seafood platter is enough for 2-4 people.

    Start with charbroiled oysters. Crawfish etoufé is excellent, BBQ shrimp delicious but very messy and time consuming to peel.

    Cut your wait time in half and sit at the bar. You'll meet so many interesting people with fun stories and tips. The spicy potatoes are good but the bbq shrimp steal the show!

    This place is expensive. We purchased bbq shrimp app, and a half platter to share between two people (without drinks) and it was 50ish dollars before tip!

    Me and the family in town for the All-Star game. Long line out front but it moved quickly. Now the food..... The waiter was pleasant enough but rushed and not very personable.

    The best Charbroiled Oysters I've ever had!!! Just hope you don't get the crazy waiter that doesn't give you what you ask for (we wanted a little more bread).
