“Bf has been raving about this place for years about the Shrimp Ducky. My First time and Came alway from Texas. The food was amazing. I am disappointed in the person at the hostess stand. She was a little rude and not hospitable. We had a togo order due to our dog in the car. We don’t know where to go to pick up the order and it left us wandering the restaurant.“

“I stayed here for a night last week, it’s near the airport so it’s very convenient. I went down the bar to get some late night food To-Go, my bartender was super sweet and the restaurant luckily takes Apple Pay! I ordered a burger and fries and it was so good. I wish I got the bartender’s name, he’s an older Caucasian male, so nice you’ll have great service with him!“

“So amazing!! Elevated twists on the dishes!! Great atmosphere, and an incredible experience!! Never disappoints!!“

“Delicious and charming! Go!!“

“I visited the location on Ponchatrain in Nola last night _ I will NEVER dine in late at night - The host was outside playing with the managers dog in the parking lot - She walked in the side door and greeted me picked up the menu and NEVER sanitized or washed her hands. The server complained about it being slow- My food came out cold- The manager on duty last didn't care- They put my side dishes in the microwave They served me the same cold chicken I sent back and just put it on the grill for a few minutes. Horrible customer service experience and the quality of the food was worse.“

“Very nice and cozy bar😉 we loved it!“

“Wonderful food in a beautiful setting with great service!“

“I was looking for a lowkey place for dinner after working all day and this was the perfect choice! The ambiance was great, food was top tier and the service was exceptional. Mason was my server and he made amazing recommendations. I had the gumbo, brisket, and a desert to go. All were amazing! Even other servers were kind and welcoming (hi Jimmy!). I can’t recommend this place more, and I will definitely be back!“

“Absolutely delicious dinner, dessert, and a lovely conversation with Kelly Bopp, Granne Guice, and WJK4 at the newly reopened Gautreau’s Restaurant. Make your reservations early! 🦃 🧡🎁❤️🎄💚“

“My friends and I stopped into Cure for drinks and apps before dinner, and it was such a great spot to kick off the night. The drinks were tasty and well-crafted, and the apps were light and flavorful. Just note that they’re definitely small plates—perfect for sharing, but I’d say 4 people max per dish if you’re splitting.

Chill vibe, great drinks, and a nice way to start the evening!“

“Really good food and fantastic, friendly service. Great happy hour deals (1/2 price) on wine and apps. Definitely recommend.“

“Really nice clean atmosphere Lots of pool tables delicious bar foods and they sell lived and boiled crawfish 😋“

“Food and service five stars all the way. The ladies bathroom ... well that leaves a lot to be desired. Wash your hands and go the bathroom before you get there. The servers in bartenders were very kind. The hamburger was fantastic! We split a meal and they were kind enough to split it and put it on the plate for us and everything. Very few places are happy to split a meal. Great happy hours every day. Can't beat happy hour beer & wine prices.“

“Delicious dog! 🤤 And the chicken tenders for my daughter were fresh.“

“Always love it,great food and awesome service!......“

“The best on the water an great dining“

“The best in town! The roast beef is out of this world.“

“Great atmosphere along with great great service. The food is delicious and the drinks are tasty.“

“I have been coming here for 20 years or close to it. I love the hamburgers, garbage can nachos, spaghetti and meatballs, lasagna, spinach and shrimp quesadillas, ribs, and recently discovered the Baja taco with salmon this summer. That’s my favorite go to meal now!!! I usually got a margarita on the rocks with dinner. But changed it up with a watermelon daiquiri with tajin on the rim. Delicious! This was one of my mom’s favorite places too. I sure miss going there with her sharing a hamburger together and having margaritas. Great neighborhood restaurant.“

“Best place in the world. I love this place. Inside info… (if you want to be an instant insider, play Prince on the juke. Then go smoke on the back porch. Share your smoke if anyone is around to share with. Good things will happen.). Funnest all nighter in the world.“

“Great crawfish on Friday nights.“

“Zea Rotisserie & Cafe on Hickory Avenue in Harahan (just a stone’s throw from Elmwood) offers a solid dining experience that’s hard not to appreciate—even if it doesn’t quite knock your socks off. The rotisserie chicken is reliably juicy, the Thai ribs have a nice kick, and the roasted corn grits are a comforting side that rarely disappoints. I recently had the Honey Island chicken sandwich and it was delicious. Absolutely recommend the hummus.

The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming, perfect for a casual lunch or low-key dinner. Service is generally attentive without being overbearing. While some menu items might not dazzle every time, the overall consistency and friendly vibe make it a dependable go-to when you're in the area.

It’s not revolutionary—but it doesn’t need to be. Zea delivers exactly what it promises: good food, good service, and in a welcoming environment. Sometimes, that’s more than enough.“

“Best Burger in Metairie ....bunch of TVs to watch all the sports you could want“

“I forgot about this place, but now I'm back. Grabbed the Wednesday special, which was pretty good, I asked the waitress if it was white or dark meat. She informed me it was white, she was wrong. My mechanic scored from that. We did go back Thursday, I got the hotdog on french with homemade chili. Food is good, and the seasoning was good. We will be regulars!“

“Junior's is an absolutely wonderful spot. I took my family of 8 and the experience could not have been better.

We walked right in, grabbed our table and started with drinks (all delicious) and the appetizers were lovely (especially the brussel sprouts).

Everyone enjoyed his/her individual entrees and our wonderful server was efficient and personable. We had to skip dessert, but the options looked tasty.

Junior's is certainly a place I'll return to.“

“Food and drinks are amazing! Service is phenomenal! Was having a tough night. Devin and Deon (the host???) are absolute sweethearts! Thanks for your kindness; I think this was the first time I've ever taken myself out for a drink!“
