I don't even want to give this restaurant a one. I understand that it's Good Friday and everyone is busy but not only where we forgotten about to get our table outside but once we got outside, we waited 30 minutes for service. Not one waiter or waitress even acknowledged that we were sitting there. We had one drink that was paid for at the bar by a wonderful bartender. Too bad she was the only one paying attention.

Wow, My first and last time I ever dine here. When I first arrived it about 2-3 minutes to be greated , then I was passed off to another hostess. I was asked did I perfer inside or outside , I said outside. We were walked threw the kitchen area/oyster grill I guess to the patio. I wanted to face the water so i sat in that direction. The hostess started to move tables around and ran into me coming and going with a table when she was told that she couldnt seat that many tables together. The oysters came out ok at best, before we could finish the oysters the entree was being placed ontop of the table. The pasta was over cooked and the shrimp were from a plastic shrimp mold at your local grocery store. The beer wasnt too bad just warmed up by the time it got to the table. To note it wasnt busy at all on the second floor, I would estimate half the tables were filled.I didnt have the energy to complain,in my opinion just go to Dragos.
We went here based on a recommendation from a local and OMG it didn't disappoint. The food was top tier, service was spot on and the view was pure perfection.
For the last three times I’ve been here the service has been terrible. When I went today the server in our section kept acting like she didn’t see us, but when a new table got sat next to us, they got seen right away.The food is decent, but because of the terrible service I will not be back.

Disappointed with the experience. We ordered to go food a couple of times during the pandemic so wanted to try it out in person. Service was "challenged" but we see that a lot post-pandemic so don't always blame the restaurant. The gumbo Ya Ya was terrible, the roux was obviously burnt, which no serious Cajun restaurant would serve. We had the fried seafood which was okay but some was a little over cooked so dry. The worst was the 3.5% "administrative fee" added at the end of the bill for a mediocre dining experience. Leave for the tourist I guess.

True New Orleanian here. Came to Felix's for a family get together. Almost Everything was great. The hostess, the food server and the manager. However, our waitress did not even present a smile and gave us a hard time. She warmed up a little bit towards the end. Food server noticed that the shrimp on our po-boys were low. So, he brought some extra on the side. Very nice atmosphere for a Saturday lunch. Raw oyster: 10/10 Char-grilled: 7/10 Shrimp po-boy: 6/10 Blackened chicken Alfredo: 8/10 Shrimp Tacos: 7/10 Bagel n Lox: 7/10

This was one of the highlights of my trip! The chargrilled oysters were SOOO good! I discovered the place on Tik Tok and was excited after hearing there happy hour prices were so affordable! $1 - $1.50 for Oysters and discounted drinks was right up my alley. It was my first time having a chargrilled oysters and I am SOLD! Additionally their crawfish etouffee and trio plate were delicious. Additionally the ambiance is amazing! Its right next to the water! As a person who lives in a big city I don't see water much so I was ecstatic! Eating oysters while overlooking the water is a vibe that is stored in my favorite memories bank. Additionally the service was decent. It was very busy so we experienced a longer wait then excepted after being seated. But the ambiance and food was so satisfying it was worth it! Since it was happy hour our bill for three came up to less then $120 including 2 orders of chargrilled oysters, 2 orders of fresh oysters, 3 drinks, and 3 entrees. I am still shocked at how affordable it was.

We lucked in on a live band playing some oldies soft rock. It's sits on a boat marina and we sat outside on the dock. It was beautiful. Our server was so polite and on point with refills and service.

Our main complaint was that the service was subpar. We probably waited 10 or 15 minutes for a server to come and then she never checked on us or asked how our food was. I had to go to the bar for ketchup and salt/pepper. Food was okay.
Fantastic service fantastic food! Would recommend this place to anybody, and the best oysters in New Orleans if you like them raw!

We ate here Saturday night. The food was really good. The place looks a little old but it wascool! There’s a nice little view of what I think was the Mississippi River (Not Sure). The bottom level they had a live band playing music! It was cool just super loud! We had a party of 10 for the most part everything was really good.
I ordered the lunch special catfish with crawfish topping and side of mixed veg.The catfish was overcooked dry and tough. There was 1 yes just 1 crawfish in the topping. I only had a single bite of the vegetables because it was cold like it had just come out of the refrigerator.Our server was good and there is a good seafood dockside vibe. I guess it would have been better if there were more people and it wasn’t pouring down rain.

As a follow up I had to change my review. The manager/chef reached out personally about my review and was sincere in his apology. Also I will say my meal was amazing. Try the char broiled oysters. BEST EVER!
