Service is terrible and tiny portions, meh, are not worth the OUTRAGEOUS prices!

The catfish was like mush. Wasn’t fried at all. The fried chicken poboy was mid at best. Not worth the price at all. Better food could’ve been had at McDonalds.

We have heard nothing but good things about this place!! We finally made our way to try it this afternoon and it was so worth it. Huge poboys and the fries/hushpuppies are very yummy!! The customer service is also top notch! We will definitely be back soon.

I ordered catfish and fries. How hard is it to mess up something so simple? The Rougaroux brought me out HARD, overly CRISPY burnt pieces of fish. I sent it back for them to remake it. I should have sent back the french fries as well. For $26 a plate- I absolutely expect better quality. I should have gone to Pappadeaux. Also, I noticed, the pieces of fish are small, and they load it up with tons of batter to give the illusion of a big piece of fish. How do you overfry french fries? The oil was clearly too hot ,and they were rushing in the kitchen. French fries were like little potato chips. Won't ever go back to this establishent.

We got the recommendation from a local couple while at Leon Bridges show last night..

Great spot and we enjoyed our Blackened shrimp poboy, fried shrimp poboy & shrimp and andouille gumbo… The boudin was just ok for me, in comparison.. I like a bit more seasoning in my rice, but it was still good and It still didn’t have a chance..

That being said, I also have family in New Orleans and visit 20+ times a year! Keep up the great work! I know why we got the recommendations!!

The food was fantastic. The decorations are cool. I had the surf n turf and a boudin link. Both were very good. The roast beef was tender, and the Shrimp was fried well, and crispy. The sauce on the surface n turf po boy was delicious as well. Some coworkers said their gumbo was the best they had ever eaten.

The pecan bread pudding for dessert was an excellent dish! Cool vibe, great food, go out of your way to eat here.
