    Lovie BBQ Burger
    Jordan L.

    Knew about this place for a while and heard it was good. Speaking to someone at work who went to the Metairie location finally spurred me to try it. I went to the uptown location. The inside had decent amount of space. Loved all the cartoons on the wall had some Pokémon, ninja turtles, etc which was fun. Ordered one of the weekly special burgers the Lovie BBQ burger. I did the double, which was my coworkers reco and I'm glad I did cause I was as hungry and needed a bit more. Had bbq sauce, bacon, fried onion rings, jalapeños. How could that not be good. Also, split a loaded fry with my SO. Nice and small crispy fries with queso, nerd sauce, and bacon. Food came fast and I think the owner was the one to put our order in. Enjoyed our quick Saturday lunch here.

    Stumbled upon Burger Nerds this weekend and was pleasantly surprised. The vibe is great--laid-back with standard tables up front and a cozy little lounge area tucked in the back. One of the coolest touches? The walls are decked out with colorful characters from a variety of video games--super fun and nostalgic. We were in a bit of a rush, so we only got to try a couple of items: the Chopped Chicken Wrap and a Classic Burger. The chicken wrap was a standout--tender, well-marinated chicken with sautéed bell peppers and onions that packed a lot of flavor. The classic burger was simple but done right--nicely charred on the outside while staying juicy on the inside. If you're looking for a solid spot to grab a quick, satisfying bite, I'd definitely recommend checking this place out.

    I attended one of the soft opening days, so I can't say what this will be like in the long run, but I can tell you about my experience so far. Everyone was super friendly and fun when I walked in. There is a variety of seating - bar, hightop, lower/regular seating, and bench. I was there right as they were opening so I chose a lower (and more comfortable to me) seat with my book. Order at the counter: a can of Pepsi product, a cheeseburger, and the Brussels sprouts. I could give or take the Pepsi. The cheeseburger was flavorful, but not much difference between this any other smash-type burger with cheese. I was most looking forward to the Brussels sprouts, so that's my focus. They are "Flash-fried & tossed in house spicy vinegar, topped with okonomi BBQ sauce, Kewpie mayo, & shizo furikake, and finished with crispy shallots." Overall, the flavor was so delicious, but after eating some, the tartness just got to be too much. I didn't want to take home leftovers because they wouldn't have the crispness left after reheating, but it was hard to finish them because of the pucker power after eating about half. Overall, I'm excited to have them in the neighborhood. I can't wait until they do a full launch!

    Burgers are so so good. Queso burger is a decadent treat but their classic smash is as good as it get, imo!

    I never had such a mouthwatering burger in my life!…read more This 24-hour diner is the perfect spot to get a quick meal at low prices. Between my partner and I, we didn't spend more than $30 in this place. This place is super low-key; no expectations of dressing fancy one bit. It's the kind of spot that you'd go into after a long night of partying, ready to end the night with a juicy burger with crispy fries, topped with ice cold beverages. If you can squeeze in a moment to order from their grill, I promise you won't be disappointed!

    So we have been going to Clover Grill for over 20 years when we visit New Orleans. Each time it has…read morebeen really good food and great service in a spotless old school greasy spoon. This past week we visited and we could both tell right away things were different. The inside of the restaurant was filthy and I mean filthy. You could see the floor under the bar and in the kitchen hadn't been cleaned in months. The fryers hadn't been cleaned in a very long time. Everything just looked dirty and like no effort is put into cleaning and maintenance. We decided to eat anyway which was a mistake. We love their burgers that are cooked and steamed old school. We both ordered one. My wife ordered hers with bacon, which they charge over 3 bucks for. We both ordered our burger dressed with all the fixings. When my wife's burger came out it had no bacon and no fixings. I told the waiter and he said he would handled it. He never did as he started doing other orders. My burger had no flavor and it looked like the person that made it didn't care , which goes along with the restaurant cleanness. One thing that really turned us off was the was other guest were treated by staff. The "cook" was completely pissed off and had a horrible attitude. A group came in looking for a table and there wasn't room. He yelled at them that there wasn't room. They stood in the entrance area for a few moments and then he yelled at them that they needed to get out of the restaurant and wait outside. He told them this isn't a restroom so don't wait in line. The attitude and distain in his voice was overwhelming. A few minutes later a couple came in and found 2 seats at the bar. They decided to order food to go and was talking to the waiter. One of the 2 people ordering was standing behind the empty bar seat while they ordered. The cook yelled at this person that they needed to sit down. Both customers were stunned. The waiter told the cook they were making an order to go and the cook could be heard muttering under his breath. This little guy was nothing but attitude and seemed extremely pissed off the there. Maybe instead of being the restaurant traffic cop and total smart ass he should concentrate on getting orders straight since ours was screwed up and never fixed. Whatever charm this place had is gone along with the any effort to keep it up to clean standards.

    Turtle Bay -- 4…read more Listen... this is MY spot. One of my favorite places and honestly one of the only places I'll sit down and eat in the French Quarter. I've been coming here for about 6 or 7 years now, and they are easily in my top three. The vibe? Dive bar, laid back, no fuss... but the FOOD? Don't sleep on it. Their menu is solid and I still haven't made it through everything yet. I've had the wings, which we actually got this visit but ate them so fast we didn't even get a picture. That should tell you enough right there. I've had the pizza, and my husband usually goes for a burger. Never any complaints. They've got plenty on tap and the drinks hit too. I love a good Electric Lemonade, but this time I kept it simple with an Angry Orchard. Now let's talk about what keeps me coming back... The steak. We got our old faithful, one of their signature steaks, the 10oz petite ribeye. This is exactly what made me fall in love with Turtle Bay in the first place. Normally it's around $13.95, comes with a twice stuffed potato and a slice of garlic bread. A DEAL. This time it was a little higher, but still under $15, which honestly is still more than fair with how prices are these days. And when I say it be hitting... it be hitting. Only reason this visit didn't get a full 5 stars? My steak was cooked a little over my liking. I usually go for medium, and this one leaned more done than I prefer. Not horrible, just not my usual perfection. But everything else? Still solid. The staff is always nice, always welcoming. I've never had a bad experience with them, and that matters. And I already know I'm coming back because I keep hearing the crawfish is FIRE. Yeah... I need to see that for myself. This is my happy place. Open 24/7, consistent, affordable, and just a real gem in the French Quarter. The Bay is Babe. Period.

The staff was a big rough around the edges. I inquired about their buffalo burger by asking if their buffalo sauce was traditional (buttery) or just hot (like Texas Pete). Our server/bartender proceeded to go off that it wasn't fancy, that this was a dive bar, and it's hot buffalo sauce, etc. All I asked for was clarification and trust me- I wasn't expecting something fancy by the look of the place. Again, it's a dive. I ordered the burger anyways. When asked what temp I said medium rare. The burger came out well done (pictured) but at that point I didn't even care and just ate it because I didn't want to deal with the attitude the staff had. Prices were reasonable. The rest of the table had mixed reviews about the food. The pork bbq sandwich my friend got (the sub looking photograph) was VERY good and probably best thing any of us ordered.

My food was hot n ready within 10 minutes. What I got: crawfish pie (10/5) -- $2.99 for this masterpiece. it is basically crawfish etouffee mixed with some rice stuffed into pie dough. savory, got a nice kick of heat, and love how pronounced the bell pepper flavor is shrimp po boy (10/5) -- everything is just so balanced and went down like nothing because it is so effortlessly addictive. Shrimp are seasoned and fried perfectly. came out to ~$10 and the 6" is HUGE, also easily customizable chicken sausage gumbo (5/5) -- literally feels/tastes like it is made with love. perfectly seasoned, hearty, savory, nice chunks of smoked sausage, good portion of rice It will be on my list to return to whenever I come to New Orleans.

    Hidden gem ALERT!!!!!…read more I explored the French Quarter for more authentic eats, and escaped Burbon St...mission complete. New Orleans version of a NY bodega is where I found one of the best and most adorable shrimp po'boys. You'll have to put these directions into your phone, because the location is in the depths of the neighborhood district. It's walkable to and from the popular Canal Street, just much quieter and secluded. You won't be able to park on this particular street, but near by areas would allow for street parking. This is in fact a grocery store with a hot food market setup in the back. I was pleasantly greeted immediately as I entered by a gentleman stocking, and a nice lady behind the register. I immediately darted to the back of the store and saw the setup, simple with a bit of updated technology. You can order and pay at a tablet style screen, and wait for the magic to be made on the other side. It took about 5 minutes and I got a text my order was ready, the same gentleman who was stocking called out my name from the back and handed me a 12 inch shrimp po'boy for 12.00. This sandwich was incredible, loaded with crispy fried shrimp and fresh lettuce. The bun was soft and very fresh, I added extra pickles for an acidic flavor breakup to the fried fish and dough. The flavors were on point, very seasoned and perfectly cooked shrimp. I was very impressed by the price and quality....not to mention customer service. Pro Tip: My van driver mentioned to me before dropping me off at the hotel, a lot of people walk Burbon Street and turn around when it becomes residential. But there is actually a ton of life and experiences to be had off the beaten path, both local and authentic.
