4.4 / 5.0(6,616 reviews)
I ordered the fried fish meal with greens and finished with their bread pudding, and let me tell you everything was really good. The fish was perfectly seasoned and fried to golden perfection, the greens were flavorful and tender, and that bread pudding……. Out of this world. Sweet and rich. The staff were incredibly kind and attentive, making the whole experience even better. You could feel the southern hospitality in every interaction. If you’re in New Orleans and want an authentic taste of the city paired with great service and a fun Bourbon Street vibe, this is the spot This was such a wonderful find! It is a simple atmosphere with friendly staff and a quaint atmosphere. The food was really, really delicious! The jambalaya was by far the best I've ever had. Super flavorful and not overly spicy. The gumbo and the etouffee we're both good as well. We will certainly be back! *12 October 2025* Visiting from Atlanta. My Shrimp Creole was sooooo good! My oh my. Seasoned to perfection. It hit the spot. It was warm and savory and made me ready for the bed! Lol. The bread that came with it was soft and warm, too. I would totally come here again next time I'm in NOLA. Our server was kind. But I will say that when we were ready to pay, it took a good while to flag her down. I didn't order any cocktails, but next time I will.

We had 2 servers, thinking we would get great service. No ma’am. Service was slow and staff wasn’t on point. The suggested items was not to my liking. I asked for an alternative. Management asked if I put some seasoning on it offered before granting my request. Absurd. They reused the happy birthday decor for the bread pudding while celebrating birthdays. Don’t get me wrong the bread pudding was good. I wasn’t really impressed by the service to make me want to come back. My friends enjoyed their food. We asked for separate checks and that was an ordeal. I wouldn’t suggest this restaurant unless you get different service.

Right on Bourbon Street, service was fairly quick for a holiday weekend. We ordered the crab cakes, taste of New Orleans trio and the bread pudding. The bread pudding so yummy we cam back a different night to just get bread pudding for dessert!
