Mr. B's Bistro Reviews
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 great birthday dinner! My two sisters and I were celebrating our birthdays in New Orleans. I am so glad we went to Mr B's. The food was outstanding. We got the wood grilled fish, barbequed shrimp and the pasta jambalaya. Our server Brett was top notch and the birthday recognition was great! It is a beautiful restaurant! I'll be back!
Mr. B's is my favorite restaurant in New Orleans. The food is amazing. The wait staff is attentive. The atmosphere is buzzy but not rushed. This visit we got to sit near the kitchen and the bar so we could see what a well-oiled machine looks like. I had BBQ shrimp wth fresh French bread, crab cake appetizer, pecan pie with ice cream for dessert. My husband had the filet with sautéed spinach and potatoes and molten chocolate cupcake for dessert. Every bite was delicious.

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.
