Wentfor a birthday dinner, and service was fantastic, drinks were great, and the food was delicious. One of my favorite restaurants to go to. Oysters were fresh, pontchartrain was great and the shrimp appetizer was a good start.

First time coming here. I was excited there was a location in Houston since I missed it in New Orleans. I tried the chagrilled oysters. I thought it was kind of salty. Nothing memorable. My entree was the New Orleans medley. It contained gumbo, jambalaya, red beans and rice and grilled smoked sausage. On paper it sounds great but in reality it was just average. I’ve been to New Orleans so I was kind of hoping for the same flavor and quality. Service was okay. Overall it was a very mid experience. About a 2.5/5.

Went in for a job interview. Hopefully I get the job. Upon walking in I was asked if I had been helped. The establishment was clean. The environment was welcoming. There is lots of room and tables for guest. Didn't get the opportunity to try any menu item's. Hopefully next time.

I went for the oysters, because I had heard so much about them. I ordered both fried and chargrilled oysters. They were just ok... lots of butter and lacking in flavor.I would caution anyone dining here to check your bill carefully. Our server included a 20% tip to our bill and claimed it's automatic for parties of 5 or more. However, the menu clearly states in bold letters that the tip is automatic for parties of 6 or more. There were 5 people in our party. When I called it to his attention, he immediately corrected the bill and removed the tip. I normally give a minumum 20% tip when dining out, so it wasn't a big deal, but the problem I had was the fact that he was not honest from the onset.

I usually come here for the chargrilled oysters which has me in a chokehold lol. In other words, its delicious. Definitely not better than the acme in new Orleans, however, i can settle for this. Have tried their boudin egg rolls which were good. Their gumbo isn't that good as it taste like its from a can. The red beans and rice with sausage was ok. I wouldn't get it again though. And the fried catfish was good, perfectly fried. The boom boom shrimp were good although i though the shrimp were bigger. But that's fine, still was appetizing.

Love this place! They have the sweetest, freshest oysters I've had. Also, the chargrilled oysters are amazing!! The guy shucking the oysters was great. Our waitress was great! The fried fish Pontchartrain was very good! Fried soft shell crab was good, too. Will definitely be back.

The worst seafood experience in a long time. I saw a nice review about them, so my husband and I decided to try them since we were in Houston on an assignment. It was shameful for them to claim New Orleans. We live on Galveston Bay and buy fresh seafood weekly. Not sure where their seafood is from, but it is not from the Texas or Louisiana Gulf Coast!

I went thinking of the nostalgia of my past trips to New Orleans. It's reminiscent of the original. Shrimp was good.
