It was our first time here, and we're already planning our return! Walking in, the decor instantly transports you to the New Orleans French Quarter.... it's elegant, but welcoming. The host and server were extremely polite and helpful with suggestions. We had the lunch specials and were very happy with the taste, portion size and selection. We had the Linguini Mardi Gras & the Cajun Combo, which I washed down with a nice beer in a chilled mug! We were extremely satisfied with both dishes. The crab cakes, however, lacked a little something, but we're OK. We finished off with some creamy creme brulee which hit the spot! All in all we had a great lunch and already have our eyes set on tasting different menu items. Stop by!

Almost sent to a dirty table but was caught and cleaned on the way. Server was nice and sweet. Bar was slow, took a long time to get an old fashion. When dinner was ordered so was 1 glass of wine. After dinner arrived our server was then reminded that wine was never received and still a wait before it arrived. Both fish dishes were very good. The lighter of the 2 pictures was the Diablo, which was because there was jalapeños in the dish which you can see no other heat was tasted. The darker dish is the Mississippi which got 2 filets both dishes by personal preference should get more shrimp, (all restaurants can be stingy with shrimp & we really like it ). Ordered shrimp & grits to go more grits was the only feedback other than they were good.
This place has amazing seafood. I went out with my mother and my SIL as a treat and a thank you for her hosting us. We all like seafood and I was happy to have found this place from a Google search. We got the alligator to start and it was cooked perfectly with a crispy light breading. I don't know what is in the sauce but it's the right combination of sweet and heat. The herb crusted salmon was cooked perfectly and paired with sautéed spinach. The New Orleans Mahi Mahi took what could be a plain fish to a different level of flavor. And I cannot put into words how good the ponchartrain redfish is. The sauce paired perfectly well and the portion sizes of all dishes was excellent. Alex offered us friendly and efficient service. He knew the menu well and was helpful in figuring out what to order. The food came out much faster than I would have thought given all of the components of the dishes ordered. I would go back to this restaurant again and again. And will certainly return should I be in the area again.
This is always a go to place for my husband and I that is only a couple of miles from our neighborhood and it always offers good food. The Mississippi catfish is simply delicious as is the bread and pesto oil appetizer that's brought out to each table. My husband had the jambalaya, as he usually does, and was very satisfied with it. The service was great. Our waitress was friendly and outgoing and the ambiance was spot on, too. We ordered ice tea and it was pretty good with prompt refills as needed. We never need a reservation and always get seated promptly.
The place is nice and the service is good. I enjoyed the selection on the menu, but after settling on chicken piccata. I will think of it next time I make noodles and butter, as the sauce was broken and more like butter with capers thrown in. I’ll still go back, but I’m not expecting much.
I called Bourbon Street Seafood to make a reservation and ended up calling a couple of times afterward to update the number of people in our party. Unfortunately, today I had to cancel the reservation altogether, so I didn’t get a chance to try the food. However, I still wanted to leave a review because of the excellent customer service. Each time I called, it sounded like the same gentleman answered the phone. I didn’t catch his name, but he was pleasant, kind, and professional every single time. Even when I had to cancel a large reservation for 26 people, he was incredibly sweet and understanding. Thank you for the great service—I look forward to trying the food in the future.
Enjoyed the atmosphere and look of the place. The food tastes great and they'll even bag up the leftovers for you!
Had the ponchatrain red fish and a Boudin Sausage. Both had good flavor and came out hot. The ambiance is pleasant and staff kept drinks full.
