This restaurant is a must go-to in Oceanside. It is nestled in a beautiful boutique hotel. The food is unique and exquisite- a taste of New Orleans with a classic New American twist. Their happy hours are unbeatable. Make sure not to miss out on the raw oysters in Wednesdays. Amy was the most wonderful host and shared with us her favorites. She is the sweetest and her service and attention is five stars! This is a neighborhood spot and an industry favorite and you could really feel the right-knit locals Oceanside spirit.

Cody was great!
We were not greeted by anyone once we arrived. It's more like a Bar with a few tables to sit and eat. The drinks were good, but the food was not so much. We ordered the gulf charbroiled oysters they were overcooked. The thin sliced catfish were salty and you could taste the old oil that needed to be changed. And the Crawfish garlic chicken wings, the wings were under seasoned and tasted old. I don't think we're going to come back here unless it's just for the drinks.

We ate there yesterday with friends and everything we had (catfish, chicken & biscuits, oysters, steak sandwich, O'side Burger and Beignets) was absolutely delicious! We will definitely be going back, probably soon! It was that good! We loved this restaurant!!! Yum!

The food is very good, had the chicken and biscuits. Flakey biscuit was wonderful. Nice presentation, nice dishes, friendly staff, timely delivery. Music is upbeat and chill at the same time. Make it to happy hour, great deal!

The staff could not have been friendlier and worked really well as a team. Food was solid with highlights of Jerk chicken salad / Mac-n-cheese/ crawfish linguine. Well be back for sure

Service could have been better. Had to ask twice for our order of raw oysters. Pasta was warm but not hot (tasted excellent despite that) Oysters (grilled n raw) were really good Mac n cheese is outstanding

Wow! What an amazing evening! Celebrated my birthday at Q&A with a group of friends for dinner. Then we went upstairs for drinks at CocoCabana. Cannot say enough about the amazing food, service and ambiance. The Retro Ski theme and atmosphere upstairs was so much fun. Thanks you for a great night!

Sydney was the greatest server I have ever had! She was so helpful and offered great recommendations! She definitely deserves a raise!

It was OK. The food was OK. I tried the NOLA grub (char-broiled oysters and gumbo). I will never try New Orleans grub outside of NOLA. I tried the Hot Chicken Biscuit. Stick with Popeyes.The restaurant ambiance suggests fine dining until you read the misspellings in the menu. The service was subpar. The menu and extra plates remained on my table during the entire meal. The waitress never checked on me once. I had to flag her down when I needed anything.
My boyfriend and I went here for date night this past weekend and we have nothing but good things to say! Cocktails were on point and our server made the best food suggestions. We were stoked on everything. Treated ourselves to a couple oyster shooters and shared the fried catfish and hot chicken biscuit. Everything was DELICIOUS. We hear they have bottomless espresso martinis for brunch... We will definitely be back!

I rated the service as fair because there was a long delay in between serving the dishes. One of my friends got a very cold coffee, another friend got only part of her dish delivered. There was just one bathroom that was not very clean. The food was average.

My husband and I saw a flier for Q & A's Mardi Gras party yesterday and went for it! We were not disappointed at all and had an amazing time. The food was very flavorful and the drinks were delicious. I had the gumbo bowl and will be back for more! I am so thankful the Hurricane I had to drink was not overly sweet and was so good I had another one! The staff was very attentive and very nice, and the music was wonderful too. We had such a great time and will be bringing our friends here from now on. Thank you for a wonderful time! ?

This place has the best Cajun noodle dish ever. Totally amazing. The steak was also great. The lady who helped us was super cool and had a great sense of humor. Great staff!!! Thanks for a great dinner.

I'm sometimes too patient, we waited an awkward 10 minutes to be approached by the server/busser where there was only 1 table out of 6 with guests (2). There were 3 other people at the bar. We were sat, given menus and waited another 5 minutes with no service, before we left.
