North Of The Bayou Restaurant & Brewery

Pretty good. Very tasty food, very agreeable price, cool aesthetic, and good beignets. Has a proper sit down restaurant, bar, and lounge area.

Nice outdoor place to eat. My kids loved the water fountain.

I’ve seen this place so many times on my commute and finally wanted to give it a try on a Friday fish fry. The hostess was quite friendly, the server was ok… the food was awful. We ordered the fried okra, fried tilapia with sweet potato fries -all were so incredibly bland. Without the sauces it was have been inedible. We won’t be going back here- big disappointment.

My wife and I have been wanting to try this place for a long time. Unfortunately, we did tonight. We arrived to no host, flagged down the bartender who told us to sit wherever. Raw oysters were huge (in a bad way), no briny/fresh flavor, tough and meaty parts. Couldn't eat them all because they were off. No lemon served, weak horseradish. Got a small portions of etoufee and gumbo. Fine but gumbo was flavorless. Got crab cakes that were mostly tasting of the bread crumb, and they were on top of lettuce and black beans? My beer was actually good, but my wife's margarita was bad, no tequila taste. Overall, not good. Won't come back. The fountain was nice! Oh also someone parked us in? Like parked in front of bus in a totally open parking lot when we pulled through our spot there was no real parking spot in front of us? Weird vibes!

We had a dozen oysters on the half shell w/ cheese curds, salad and catfish poboy. It was all incredible! 2nd time we've been here and this place is a hidden gem!

Came here to Madison to celebrate our 25th anniversary and had to check this place out, it definitely did not disappoint. The brews here were great, the staff friendly, and the food was outstanding! Had the jambalaya pasta and it was so flavorful with a bit of a kick to it...just as Cajun food should. Will definitely return when we can

Moses is the man. My first experience with this place was awesome.

We have dined at this restaurant, four times in the past 2 1/2 years. There are so many excellent restaurants in Madison. It’s hard to get back. I guarantee you the food here is fabulous and I know it’s a hard location to get to, but it’s more than worth it. If you love New Orleans style, and Cajun meets French, you’re in for a treat.

100% horrible service

Love! The food quality and freshness is there! The burgers were amazing as well as the light battered cheese curds and nachos! How are they not in the running for best curds?? Amazing!! Thank you Brandon and Moses for an amazing bar experience! (The drinks and prices were very good and not overpriced!!)

I had driven by this place everyday on my commute and finally decided to give it a try when my parents were in town last Friday. They have a sign out front saying live music at 5:30 on Fridays so we were excited to sit outside and enjoy. There was no music. We all ordered some of the Southern specialty cocktails. My cocktail was absolutely undrinkable. The bartender was very nice and made me a second one but this was also not good. Two of us ordered Po-Boys and two of us ordered the fish fry. A few issues that I had: there was no lemon served with the fish fry, the bread was like those little rolls that you sometimes get with an airplane meal. And the side salad that they charged extra for was very sad in the dressing was not good. We will not be returning.

Food was wrong, cold and broke my tooth. We will not be eating here anymore!

Only had a bowl of gumbo
but I thought it was pretty tasty. Batmr5ender was very attentive and friendly.

Little pricey, two drinks and a bowl of gumbo with tip was over $31....
Ouch ?

Best bar in the area. Miya and her staff are wonderful, genuine, kind and caring people who have made me feel like one of the family every time I visit. Saturday nights are popping with the Latin clan downstairs at Club Voodoo. Strongly recommend this bar to anyone and everyone.

Go here every chance I get. The food and beer is excellent and the wait staff is even better than. In fact, I'm here now.
