If there were a gold standard for hospitality, it would be JC, our waiter at Mr. B’s Bistro. We brought a group of dear friends along this time—and JC made each of us feel genuinely part of the Mr. B’s family. We’ve been dining here since 1979, and somehow JC has only grown even more remarkable with time.

What a wonderful way to start our trip to New Orleans! Our server was personable and attentive, the atmosphere was gorgeous, and their food was incredible. Their baby iceberg salad was delicious and refreshing, and I adored the zesty dressing. The barbequed shrimp was absolutely amazing, truly a perfect blend of flavors with nice fluffy bread to dip in the sauce. What a treat!
I found Mr. B’s Bistro while searching for places to eat in New Orleans, and their famous BBQ shrimp immediately caught my attention. As a prawn lover, I knew I had to try them!
We made a reservation for a Monday evening, and I was honestly so surprised by how busy it was. The restaurant was packed! There were people on dates, business dinners, and groups, and it was just great to see such a busy and lively atmosphere at the beginning of the week.

Mr. B's Bistro offers a consistent and enjoyable dining experience. Popular dishes include BBQ shrimp, veal Milanese, and shrimp & grits. The shrimp and grits have been highly praised for their taste, while the filet has sometimes been overcooked. The gumbo's roux could be improved. Service is attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable, with servers like Stef and Steven who anticipate guests' needs, making it a great spot for special occasions. The menu is limited but substitutions are allowed, and the ambiance is a highlight. Dress code is not strictly enforced, though many feel a moderate dress code would enhance the elegant atmosphere. Guests also enjoy dishes like bacon-wrapped shrimp with grits and wood-grilled fish with crab, along with desserts such as warm pecan pie and lemon icebox pie with raspberry. The restaurant can get very noisy when busy, but the atmosphere remains lively. Reservations are recommended due to its popularity. Overall, Mr. B's remains a favorite for many visitors seeking a friendly and memorable dining experience.
