“Came down from Austin with my wife to celebrate her sisters wedding. Our hotel concierge recommended this place and at first impressions it didn't seem too great. But after we sat down at the bar and met the brunette bartender, Jessica, our visit here turned out amazing. Best Old fashioned I've ever had! We will be back“

“Wow! Wow! Chef Jason Seither hit the flavors out of the park. So much food goodness. Our meal for 5 of us started with the Kung Fu Tuna, which is a Hooked up salad of seared tuna, avocado,snow crab salad with sriracha & Asian sauce, served with tortillas, so freaking good. I crave this now that I am back home in North Dakota. I have had crawfish in étouffée. I have also had a shrimp boil but learned hot to eat boiled crawfish here. Dari our server is helpful in showing how to eat the crawfish along with our Louisiana host, Charlene. You twist the head, squeeze and suck the fat and juice out. You can also squeeze this on the potatoes. I dipped my crawfish body in melted butter, because why not? They are like tiny lobsters. We were not done we also shared the Monster, a fried oyster po boy. Oh my it is so yummy, crispy breading with a tender oyster wrapped inside. The bun that encased this good is warm and taste’s like mom’s homemade bread. Because we were not stuffed full enough, we shared the deep fried Mardi Gras bread pudding, a sweet delight. Fantastic fun atmosphere, custom crawfish wall paper by Jon Sherman of Flavor paper. I loved it. The staff is so friendly, fun and attentive. Such a great dining experience. They have also been featured on Guy Fieri’s Triple D show“

“best crawfish I've ever had!“

“my absolute favorite place for boiled crawfish and mushrooms. Their burgers are fantastic as well. The service can be slow at times, but I enjoy sitting on the patio anyways, so I don't mind the wait. Love the outdoor hand washing station too- it is so convenient“

“The best Gumbo in the metro area. Order the soft shell crab and gumbo and a cold beer. Get the crab on french bread. The buns are sweet snd take away from the sogt shell crab 🦀.“

“Outstanding! From the moment we entered until we left (party of 6 celebrating a birthday), everything from the food to the drinks to the ambience were topnotch. I'll return again and again. Our server was attentive and we enjoyed her recommendations and service. Kudos to the chef.“

“Probably the best dining experience we’ve had in years. Service was on point and their massive crawfish with the boil house seasoning were cooked perfectly! So juicy, claws and all easily came out the shell intact. Flavor not just heat. Those Parmesan truffle fries are worth mentioning too. So good! Already planning our next dinner there.“

“The most kind and attentive staff! We called ahead to see if it was hard to get a table of six and they told us it was not and to come on in. We showed up an hour later and they saved us a table. The food was authentic, fresh, hot and delicious. Our table had the lasagne, spaghetti and meatballs, Mr Ed’s special poboy and the stuffed seafood bell pepper. This was the most amazing food we’ve ever had. The hospitality was unmatched. Absolutely perfect! Come here for a good time, great food and exceptional service. Catherine was the most precious person and we wanted to take her to the Taylor Swift with us!“

“I had a great experience at Fiery Crab Seafood Restaurant. The seafood was fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. The seasoning had just the right balance of spice and buttery flavor, making every bite delicious. The portions were generous, and everything arrived hot and fresh. If you're looking for a place with tasty seafood, excellent service, and a relaxed environment, I definitely recommend Fiery Crab Seafood Restaurant. I'll be coming back again!“

“Great food and friendly people“

“Can you give me Brandon LeFort‘s email address?“

“local crawfish and shrimp, great service“

“My brother loves what I call "Bougie" restaurants so when he made a reservation for six of us this past Saturday (French Quarter Festival weekend), I was sure the cuisine would be a hard no for me as I usually stick to the basics. However, I am so glad I was wrong! Walking up to restaurant does not prepare you for the cool nautical vibe you experience upon entry. It's not what I call "themey" but rather low key with subtle hints directed at the name and menu. The food was inventive, visually appealing and bursting with intentional flavors. We ordered various appetizers including the Charbroiled Mussels, Taramasalata, Ishmael Fries, Miso Blue Crab Salad, Eggplant Doughnuts as well as Bread Service (do not pass it up). Our entrees included Swordfish Schnitzel, Lobster Roll and several Squid Ink Pastas. We were stuffed but we weren't about to pass up the lemon cheesecake dessert. To say that the lemons looked too real to eat is an understatement, but we overcame and devoured all six. The whole experience was "Chef's Kiss" for all six of our party. We will be back as some of us live in NOLA and some visit often. Just an FYI, we were unaware that seating in the bar area meant literally sitting at the bar so make sure you request a table when making reservations.“

“Had a great lunch with 14 women today. Tiffany was our waitress and she was great she was very attentive and on top with the food and drinks . The food was delicious and served piping hot....just the way we like it! We will be back.“

“For the past 17 years, I’ve been a loyal customer of this amazing restaurant through both their original and new locations and I always take my food to go. Whether I’m grabbing a quick dinner after a long day or picking up something special for a cozy night in, they never disappoint. The steak is phenomenal. Even in a takeout container, it arrives perfectly cooked, juicy, and full of flavor. You can taste the care in every bite seasoned just right and always tender. It’s the kind of steak that makes you look forward to your next meal before you’ve even finished the first. And the pasta? Absolutely comforting. Rich sauces, fresh ingredients, and pasta cooked to perfection every dish travels well and tastes just as good at home as it does in the restaurant. Whether it’s creamy Alfredo or a bold marinara, it’s always satisfying. The move to the new location didn’t change a thing about the quality they’ve only gotten better. The consistency, the flavor, and the service have remained top-tier, making this my go-to spot for takeout meals that feel like a treat. Here’s to 17 years of delicious memories and many more to come. If you haven’t tried their steak and pasta to go, you’re missing out on a takeout experience that truly stands out.

“I ordered the pulled pork Poboy They should put the bread in a separate plate because when you go to pick that thing up, it’s so full half of it slides out it is that delicious“

“First time eating here. In town visiting fellow veterans. Will definitely make this a go to when on town!!“

“Bought two sacks for Easter Sunday. First the sacks were over 40 lbs each which not something you find with other places. Next the size of these mini lobsters were huge. Lastly they were the cleanest I have ever gotten or seen. Will be doing business with Johnny’s again.“

“Great music and excellent food!!!“

“My fiancé and a friend went to happy hour, it was phenomenal! We got the $1 raw oysters & the grand tour oysters! Soo good!

“I love this place!!! I visit at least once a year when I'm in town visiting family. Tessie's in a quite location/ neighborhood with friendly servers, cozy atmosphere. High recommended for those looking to leave the tourist traps in the city:)IYKYK;).“

“Yesterday, I went to this quaint cafe in Westwego. I ordered grilled fish-tilapia with sides(potato salad and green beans). Everything was cooked to perfection and tasted great. Ms. Estralita (owner) was very nice while taking my order. She gave me a nice serving (sample of her bread pudding) which was fabulous as well.
This place was recommended to me so I am so glad I tried it out! I will definitely be back.
C. Allison 😇“

“Great food reasonably priced. Much better than some of the better known and prettier places we’ve eaten at in Nola. We had the super dome and Benson Boogie. We will be back!“
