“Customer Service leaves a lot to be desired. Our waitress barely stopped by to check on us. The food was fantastic. The charbroiled oysters were plump and meaty. The gumbo and coleslaw were both very flavorful. And the fried fish dinner was also fantastic. Is the service was anywhere near the quality of the food I would recommend 100%.“

“0n a recommendation from our small haunted hotel we hit MRB for lunch. The catfish po boy was outstanding. Their drink specials were just right and reasonably priced. Two days later, we went back to try the alligator sandwich and some charbroiled oysters also spot Definitely would not call this a tourist trap. It’s like most of Nola, funky, functional and fun. Don’t confuse with Mr bs“

“By Far the best food we have eaten here in New Orleans so far!! Highly recommend! There were 6 of us and every one of us loved our plates.

“The Friday special was Trout alondine that had no almonds. The waiter brought out some raw almond slices to make it right. He tried. The fish was fresh, however. They also have a housefly problem.“

“The staff at Lula were wonderful! Went to look at the accommodations for a rehearsal dinner. The staff showed us the Barrel Room and explained the setup for the amount of guest expected. They are very accommodating for your needs. Lunch was delicious! Shrimp and grits and Fried pickled mirlitons with a poblano dipping sauce were a hit. Our server, Jalen was the best! Definitely a place to visit in NOLA.“

“My wife and I ate there yesterday. It was impossible to enjoy our food. What we assume ro be the managers (a man and lady) were having a verbal altercation on the phone... screaming profusely, slinging racial slurs, cursing and would not stop. This went on for at least 20 minutes. Seriously, this could not have been taken to another area--like outside? ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING AND EMBARRASSING behavior coming from those 2 "adults" We will NEVER eat there again...plus it was sub-par anyway. All we wanted was a peaceful meal after having tragic news. Joke was on us. "0" stars and NEVER AGAIN. And as far as the workers involved--YOU NEED TO GO. Thanks for such a horrible experience and a waist of money and time.“

“Pescado y las pastas el ambiente“

“My husband and I went on Friday night for dinner. Could not wait to try the new menu and it was simply awesome. To start with, our sever team was Isaac and Cheyanne and they were great. We never waited for anything. The Hot Crab Claws and Foie Gras Torte for appetizers were divine. I ordered the Duck Cassoulet and my husband had the visiting fish, Sea Bass over Yakamein. While the fish was excellent, the Duck ruled the table. Thanks to the Servers and Kitchen for a wonderful meal. We'll be back.“

“seafood platter was excellent, everything was battered and tried perfectly. boiled seafood was perfectly seasoned the shrimp were easy to peel“

“Parkway will ALWAYS be a favorite for me and my family. We absolutely love their poboy’s. This place is #1 in our opinion ❤️“

“JUST RECENTLY I VISITED BLUE BAYOU RESTAURANT THE ATMOSPHERE WAS BEAUTIFUL. I ORDERED THE CAJUN STUFFED RED FISH AND IT WAS AMAZING. I ASKED WHO PREPARED MY DISH AND I WAS TOLD MS.TISH. SHE CAME OUT TO GREET ME AND I LOVED HER PERSONALITY BIG UPS TO MS.TISH THANK YOU FOR THIS AMAZING EXPERIENCE“

“It was great until... and lady behind the counter was completely rude when I asked for a to-go box. SHAME on you! Your nastiness ruined a fantastic mood and experience.“

“Great service great food will definitely be back“

“Great food, great service and a friendly staff. We had marked Basin Seafood on Google maps because it looked and sounded good, and it certainly was.

We had Blue Crab Beignets (wonderful), Crawfish Queso (very good but could use more crawfish) and a couple drinks.

We went for a few items on the Happy Hour menu since we had a dinner planned elsewhere later. If we had more days in town, it would be great to have dinner here.“

“This place really left a lasting impression. From the hostess, our server, the bathrooms, food, price point, time we spent. Everything was on point. We had oysters, gumbo, bisque, redfish, and house salad. Everything was divine!!! Keep up the good work! Also loved that it was so very clean.“

“My wife and I chose Seawitch for our first anniversary dinner. We made a reservation for 6 PM and arrived on-time and were promptly seated. Out server was a very nice gentleman and answered all of our questions regarding food and drink. My wife went with the Prosecco and oysters to start. I chose a gumbo and Woodford Reserve. The oysters were perfectly chilled and plump. My gumbo had a perfect dark roux color and was perfectly flavored. My wife then ordered the Redfish entree while I went with the scallops. The Redfish was so delicious. My wife and I loved it. The scallops were perfectly cooked with a lovely sear outside and a perfect cook inside. They were massive scallops so we shared. Too full for desert but happily replete, we wrapped up the evening and now have a lovely memory of our first anniversary and will always come back to Seawitch.

The restaurant is located right on St. Charles so you can get there easily by Uber, car, or trolly. The building is very well kept and we had a great seat on the upstairs balcony overlooking the avenue. We really couldn't have asked for more. The service is top notch and my wife and I will always sing the establishment's praises.

Weird addendum....

The musical list was very smooth and great for the overall experience. My compliments to the DJ that put together the set list“

“The most kind and attentive staff! We called ahead to see if it was hard to get a table of six and they told us it was not and to come on in. We showed up an hour later and they saved us a table. The food was authentic, fresh, hot and delicious. Our table had the lasagne, spaghetti and meatballs, Mr Ed’s special poboy and the stuffed seafood bell pepper. This was the most amazing food we’ve ever had. The hospitality was unmatched. Absolutely perfect! Come here for a good time, great food and exceptional service. Catherine was the most precious person and we wanted to take her to the Taylor Swift with us!“

“We are not hotel guests, but found the restaurant online. Our waiter was great! The bouillabaise and Caesar salad were outstanding. My daughter had cannelloni with shrimp—yummy! We really enjoyed this restaurant. One of our top restaurants on our trip.“

“Antoine was a fantastic server ...polite, courteous, attentive, and extremely handsome. oh and the food was good too. I ordered the soup of the day which was the crab chowder - really decadent but not too rich. Dinner was a coffee rubbed filet cooked to perfection. I was dining alone but seated close to two different couples who did not know each other but struck up a conversation due to their proximity and I enjoyed their conversation as one couple was Swedish and the other was from AL but had Swedish roots. it was a really cool place to eat since I would call it fine dining but a comfortable feel. 10/10. Ask for Antoine.“

“local crawfish and shrimp, great service“

“The food and the service!“

“best crawfish I've ever had!“

“good service love the atmosphere pleasant service“

“This place always has got food for a low price. And is always packed everyday with loyal customers. Everyone around here enjoys the meals they make. They open at 9:30am-7 but sometimes the owner has to leave early because he sells out to quick“

“Chargrilled Oysters & the Bleu Cheese Wedge Salad.“

“Seafood nachos are Devine! Shrimp,crayfish, cheese and jalapeños combination. Get sauce on the side and eat it like a dip.Crackers,veggies, chips,even shoe leather would be good dipped in this elixer.Highly recommend.“

“I just love this place. Been many times on multiple trips. Bartenders are always so engaging and very much about keeping you company and telling you about their drinks and oysters. On this trip, a bartender with pig tails and a cap made my time so special by telling me the back story on the gin and the oysters. Fun, smiley, knowledgeable, and just welcoming. This will always be a stop for me on my New Orleans trips. And happy hour on Mon-Thu 3-6pm has great prices and fun stuff.“

“Delicious grilled or fried seafood. The BEST fried shrimp on the Westbank! The grilled chicken and grilled shrimp salads are a real treat. The poboy sandwiches are large and over stuffed. You will not regret a visit to this home cooking cajun style restaurant.“
