Waited well over an hour for our food. Went in and were told to sit down to look over the menu. We ordered two plates to go and two drinks to enjoy while the food was prepared. Went waited about 20-30 minutes before we got our drinks and an hour and a half before we got our food. With tip included we paid $102 for a salmon plate and a pork plate. The food is good but not worth the price and the wait. By the time we got our food I wasn’t hungry anymore and it went to waste anyways. Restaurants know when food is going to take a long time. We were never updated about our wait time and will never go back.

The food is off the chain!! And they give you such a large portion. 😋 the restaurant is small. But there is seating available. Parking is extremely limited.

🌟 **A Flavor Explosion at Afrodisiac New Orleans!** 🇯🇲✨
If you’re on the hunt for authentic Jamaican cuisine that will tantalize your taste buds, look no further than Afrodisiac New Orleans! My recent visit was nothing short of spectacular, and I can’t wait to share the deliciousness with you!
From the moment you enter, the vibrant atmosphere and welcoming staff make you feel right at home. The menu is a delightful journey through Jamaican flavors, and every dish is crafted with passion and authenticity.
Start your culinary adventure with the **jerk chicken wings**—smoky, spicy, and utterly addictive! The **curry shrimp plate** is a must-try, featuring succulent shrimp in a rich, flavorful sauce that will leave you wanting more. And for seafood lovers, the **Jamaican fried fish** is perfectly crispy and pairs beautifully with fresh avocado and juicy pineapple.
One of my all-time favorites has to be the **oxtail**—tender, savory, and bursting with flavor. And don’t miss the **jerk chicken sandwich**, which is a delightful twist on a classic, packed with bold spices and served on a soft bun.
For a unique treat, try the **jerk barbecue shrimp**—a mouthwatering combination of sweet and spicy that’s simply unforgettable. And if you’re in the mood for something a little different, the **crawfish étouffée fries** are a creative fusion that will blow your mind!
To round off your meal, indulge in the creamy **Rasta pasta with chicken**, a colorful and flavorful dish that’s a feast for both the eyes and the palate. And don’t forget to sip on the refreshing **Jungle Bird drink**—it’s the perfect complement to your meal!
Afrodisiac New Orleans is more than just a restaurant; it’s a celebration of Jamaican culture and flavors that will leave you craving more. Gather your friends and family, and treat yourselves to a dining experience that’s truly unforgettable!
Make your way to Afrodisiac and dive into a world of flavor that you won’t want to miss! 🌴🍽️🎉
Oxtails weren’t seasoned. I spent over $90 for poorly unseasoned food.

I walked in, and it felt like home. I'm Haitian, so it felt like a piece of me there. The husband and wife are amazing, and the food had the same passion as them. We ate there 2 days in a row. We will be going back when we visit New Orleans again.
