Eater: For decor, local renown, and general deliciousness, Casamento's is hard to beat. You can’t go wrong with the chargrilled or raw oysters or the legendary oyster loaf. [Eater 38 Member]
Ben K.: Perfect spot for raw and charbroiled oysters. Also order the fried oyster or shrimp loaf dressed, and a cup of gumbo.

Kate Ciurej: Love the crab claws, oysters, and Parish IPA. Lots of beers (bottles, cans, taps) to choose from.
Erik Michielsen: For drinks, the Morris Day (and the Thyme) kills. The smoked drum and cauliflower salad was epic. Oysters top notch. Hush puppies and fish sticks unique and incredible. Seafood salad & gumbo...bravo.
Marigny9: This Beard award-winner is one of the few places where you can sample local off-bottom oysters from the likes of Caminada & Champagne Bays. Their daily whole-fish platter never disappoints.

Allen Duhe: The bar-b-qued oysters and the chocolate bread pudding are worth the calories! Make a reservation - especially on a weekend - to avoid a lengthy wait.
