Orlandeaux's has become one of the most frustrating, poorly run restaurants I have ever visited…read more What was once a respected name now feels like a masterclass in how to drive customers away. The parking lot is a mess. The employees are rude. But the most unbelievable part is that they somehow make it difficult to order food that is actually listed on their own menu. If I want 12 stuffed shrimp, I should be able to order 12 stuffed shrimp. Simple. Instead, I am told to buy the 3-shrimp plate four times because management refuses to sell customers the quantity they want. That is not customer service. That is nonsense. When I asked for half a dozen stuffed shrimp, I was told I would need to purchase two separate $20 meals for a total of $40. Yet the menu clearly lists a half-dozen order for $32. Why should I pay an extra $8 for food I never asked for and do not want? The entire situation is ridiculous. I am sick and tired of excuses, confusion, and incompetence. This establishment has fallen so far from the reputation built by F&H and Pete Harris that it is almost unrecognizable. I am done with this place permanently. Until they fix their customer service, their ordering process, and their overall attitude toward customers, people should spend their money elsewhere. This restaurant should be embarrassed by what it has become.

I've tried…read morealmost every crawfish dealer in the city and this is the only one where I find the crawfish perfectly seasoned to my liking! I always order it to go and it's always smoking hot when I get home. Ordering is very simple. You order at the register, pay and then they pack up your food. I always get their sauce on top of my crawfish and butter on the side with corn and potatoes. Customer service always feels like you walked straight through the bayou. The accents was all I needed to hear to know I was at home lol They do charge a little bit more using a card but it's literally only a few cents more so nothing to worry about.

I paid with cash which ended up taking 10% off AND he even gave me an extra half pound of crawfish! I personally like my crawfish super spicy and theirs wasn't too hot but thats nothing a little cayenne pepper couldn't fix. So if you dont like your crawfish too hot this is the perfect spot. I enjoyed my meal and the service was quick and enjoyable. Will definitely be back! Also I tried to get a turkey neck but he said they usually sell out around 5. Thats gonna be my next adventure for sure because it smelled soooo good in there!

The catfish basket had two filets and was $17, which also felt overpriced for the portion. The service was also extremely slow. Looking around the restaurant, we noticed that nearly every table was waiting on drink refills, so it wasn't just our table experiencing the issue. Maybe the weekday specials are what earn the great reviews, but they aren't available on Saturdays. Based on our experience, we'd choose somewhere else next time.

Shrimp really good and sides and gumbo are just right. Parking looked full but plenty of table space still available inside. They are known for very prompt service and food, so they apologized when it was going to take 10 minutes as they had just turned in orders for 2 parties of a dozen. Prices are quite reasonable, getting homemade quality for just about a dollar over commercial chains, with plenty of food on the plate. Unsweet tea was just brewed and better taste than you would expect... Worth the extra short drive around town to get there, and quite fine staff as well. Try it, you'll like it.

We also tried the soft-shell crab--it was beautifully presented and tasted incredibly fresh. One guest ordered the seafood combination dinner and said everything was well-cooked, fresh, and perfectly seasoned. The fried rice that came with the seafood dinner was cooked very nicely with egg and great texture. Another had the orange chicken, and although there were several chili peppers in the sauce, it wasn't too spicy--just right. The orange flavor really came through, and everything was fried crisp, not soggy. I ordered the Dragon and Phoenix dinner (General Tso's chicken and shrimp with onion and ginger slices), and it was hands down the best General Tso's I've ever had. The shrimp were beautifully cooked, and I opted for lo mein instead of rice--it was fresh, lightly sauced, and not oily at all. This is not a buffet, and honestly, it felt like stepping back 40 years to when Chinese restaurants were more intimate, authentic, and personal. The staff was friendly and courteous, and the time from ordering to receiving our food was impressively quick. I highly recommend this hidden gem. They also offer sushi and a variety of lunch specials (we visited outside of lunch hours), and everything looked so good that I'll definitely be back to try more dishes.
