“Visited today for the first time. Upon arrival we were welcomed by Greg at the front door offering High 5's, and were promptly walked through the process of how to order and what to expect. Appetizers came out quickly, (which the fried pickles were perfect), and the entrees came out quickly after that and were also incredible. Customer service was phenomenal all around. From the beginning to the end, staff were attentive and engaging. Greg even showed us the wall of hot sauce that is available for customer use. After our meals we opted to purchase some of their sweet goodies that were near the register, which turns out are crafted by someone who works there and were out of this world! Overall, the experience was one of the absolute best we have had at a restaurant. We will definitely be back next time we are in the area.“

“We’ve made so many great memories at The Southern Hotel over the years. Our son’s wedding was held here, and it could not have been a more beautiful or special experience for our family. From the atmosphere to the service, everything was handled with such care and professionalism. My wife and I have also enjoyed several staycations here in downtown Covington — relaxing by the pool, enjoying the charm of the property, and taking in everything this historic hotel has to offer. Our business has even had the opportunity to paint different interior areas within the hotel, including portions of the ballroom — which makes it especially meaningful for us to see guests celebrating their own special moments in such a beautiful space. We’re incredibly grateful to have such a wonderful venue right here in our community. Whether you're celebrating a major life event or just looking for a relaxing getaway, The Southern Hotel is truly something special. Highly recommend! — Southern Dropcloth Painting“

“Planned a big family gathering for Easter was very disappointed in there customer service. Called prior to picking up crawfish to make sure all my ducks were in a row for our big day. I asked what time they would be open and if they were selling boiled. I was told with an attitude they would be boiling, they open at 8am and it's first come first serve no reservations. I show up at 8am to be sure I get them and I asked for 90lbs of boiled only get told they aren't selling boiled till 10am. I sit there til 10am waiting finally get back to the window.... third time now speaking with someone now and then get told that I would be limited to 50lbs. After all that no one bothered to mention a 50lb limit after mentioned multiple times I needed 90lbs. I asked if I could have family pick up the other 40lbs and was told no it's not fair. Im fine that people make limits to please all there customers but you could at least advertise that there's a limit and what time boiled would be served. A family member of mine did reserve so that only applies to some people by the way. Ive been going there faithfully for the last 3 years and boil at least twice a month during season so for this to happen the way it did is very disappointing. I felt like I was treated poorly afterwards. My family member stopped in to buy the additional 40 lbs and was asked if she was related to me before buying. So be sure ask and check with all your family and friends before going there because if anyone ether you know has already bought boiled crawfish there that day you may be limited to how much your allowed to buy. Thats completely ridiculous! First come first serve only applies to some! Needless to say I now go elsewhere. In fact today I bought 90lbs from a new place with no problem. 😘 They are simply a drive thru for only a pound or two nothing more. Sad after all these years.“

“Always Great Service and Awesome Food!!!“

“We scrambled into this place out of the pouring rain and it was a nice surprise. We were offered towels and something warm to drink. Instead we had raw oysters, fried pickles, and bloody marys. All of it was fantastic! The service and ambiance was perfect. A great experience….“

“We had a party of 20 with prior reservation. The service, food, atmosphere, and everything about the experience was PERFECT! This is the best restaurant option for parties or a simple date night. The new drink options are also a plus!“

“Pat’s Seafood provided the food for my daughter’s baby shower/crawfish boil out at the Bogue Falaya Wayside Park Pavilion in Covington! The food was amazing and their service was amazing! Lisa, the owner, and her two sons came. They brought EVERYTHING! The nicest people I could ever hope to work with. They also helped clean up and pick up tables and chairs. Honestly I can’t say enough good things. Everyone raved about the crawfish, mini muffulettas, jambalaya, berry salad, and the CHEESECAKE from Mauthe’s Farm. This was the best choice we could have made. So happy! Thank you to Colin and everyone at Pat’s! From Erin Naquin and Paula Haefner“

“Palmisano’s Catering was absolutely amazing! From the first conversation to the final bite, everything was smooth, generous, and delicious. Dustin was incredibly easy to work with responsive, flexible, and kind throughout the planning process. The food was out of this world. Every dish was packed with flavor and beautifully prepared. Guests couldn’t stop talking about how good it was! And the portions….wow. They didn’t just feed us, they abundantly fed us. No one left hungry, and we had plenty to enjoy afterward. It felt like they truly cared about making our event special. Highly recommend Palmisano’s for anyone looking for top-notch catering with heart, flavor, and fantastic service!“
