The services were great and the food was absolutely amazing!! The atmosphere was delightfully quaint. I would give it more stars if it were possible.

Curry goat
Brian H.

Portions were massive, and super flavorful! Would definitely recommend the curry goat, the worker said it had been marinating for a few hours. Service was super fast, they had my food ready for takeout within three minutes! Parking was super easy on the street. Paid about $17

Spicy jerk salmon plate with pesto sauce
Creme C.

Taste is always consistent , my favorite restaurant in New Orleans. My daggter and I can't get enough of this salmon.

Jerk chicken plate
Jasmine S.

So freakin good! When they say spicy, they mean SPICY, but so flavorful & worth it. I don't normally like jerk flavor but the jerk chicken plate with plantains, rice, veggies was so yummy. Beef patty was also amazing! Husband said it reminds him of childhood, lol. Best, these ladies working there were sweet & gave us assurance they were halal + let us know a mosque was nearby for Friday prayer. This lil hole in the wall is the real deal- Support local! Note* they are cash or venmo & don't have inside seating but did have a couple tables outside!

My lunch was amazing! Fresh off the grill and worth the wait. The fried plantain was (chef's kiss) perfect.

Jerk shrimp
Camly T.

When they say spicy, they mean spicy! I got the Jerk shrimp and it had a lot of flavors going on, and mind the spicy. They had a mild choice as well. Heads up, when I went on 10/13 they were cash only right now

Whole red fish. This is life changing, my goodness.
Alia T.

So much YES. First of all, who doesn't love a good hole in the wall? Second of all, this is some of the best food I've ever had. We ordered a whole red fish with rice and veggies (and of course plántanos) The fish was scaled fresh to order, need I say more? Treat yourself and your tummy and check this awesome spot.

Jerk chicken plate
Shanita F.

I ordered the spicy jerk chicken and it was EXACTLY that--SPISAYYYYY (spicy). The plate come with a salad and Spanish rice. Both are really good, but I'm here to tell y'all about the spicy jerk! The meat was so tender. Fall-off-the-bone, melt-in-your-mouth, perfectly seasoned, tender chicken! Although I highly recommend the chicken, the cashier told me that the jerk salmon was the best thing on the menu. I can't imagine anything would top the jerk chicken, so I will be back to see for myself. They have one outside table to sit at, and maybe 3 or 4 tables on the inside. It's a tiny/tight spot, that could use some updated design. The owner is behind the counter cooking as you order, and you can see the magic happening! I dined in with a friend, and we waited less than 20 minutes on the food. Bonus: order the hibiscus juice! the juice is freshly made and garnished with a mint! Very refreshing!

Half of jerk chicken poboy. Delicious.

Decided to try some chicken from this place at the Cluck Fest. My cousin said he's had food from…read morethem before and that he really enjoys it. The menu had Jerk chicken, curry chicken, and brown stew chicken. I wish they would have listed the sides on the menu as well, so it wouldn't leave potential customers wondering what comes with the chicken. I planned to get the jerk chicken and my mom was going to get the brown stew chicken. My mother and I aren't eating rice right now, so we asked if we could get a plate without rice and peas and just double the veggies/ greens. He said he did not have enough veggies to do it for two plates. I said okay well if we get one plate can you do it on that one and he said ok. So instead of purchasing two plates we just purchased one jerk chicken plate. The chicken was good and the greens were flavorful. I wish there could've been another veggie offered like cabbage so I could've had cabbage and then greens, but overall I enjoyed the food. Only other tip besides adding the sides to the menu, is that I think they would've benefited from having another staff member. It was only one guy plating the food and taking the money/ orders. There was someone else who would come to refill the food but they didn't help serve.

The portions were good and the food was delicious. It's designed for takeout vs diningread more

I was in town for a work conference when a colleague highly recommended this restaurant. Another…read morecolleague and I were lucky enough to secure dinner reservations one evening, and it truly exceeded expectations. We were staying at the Hilton, so it was an easy walk from our hotel. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly greeted and promptly seated by the hostess. Our server was knowledgeable, attentive, and offered excellent recommendations that made ordering effortless. I started with the pig ears and had the fried chicken as my entrée, while my colleague chose the vegetarian option. You can find pig ears in Honolulu, but not prepared in this culinary style -- it was a creative and flavorful starter. The fried chicken was perfectly juicy and well-seasoned, and the honey butter added a delightful balance of savory and tangy sweetness. The ambiance was classy yet calm, making it ideal for both conversation and a relaxed dining experience. We also enjoyed lemon drop martinis with dinner -- crisp, refreshing, and the perfect complement to our meals. Overall, I would highly recommend this spot if you're looking to enjoy a refined and memorable dinner in New Orleans.

We got the buttermilk biscuits with whipped ricotta and berries. Berry good! My beau got the crawfish pot pie. It was rich and the pastry was awesome. I got the spicy black beans. I assumed that it would come with more pork belly, but the order of the items and the price was should've probably tipped me off that the beans were the star of the dish. The texture of the beans, crispy rice cake and egg white, and runny yolk were so harmonious with the welcome bite and spice of the jalapeño. I loved the flavor of my Hurricane Buster. It was strong, but balanced. Our servers were good. The water and table runners were especially warm!

I was really looking forward to trying this place but unfortunately the menu was so limited. No jerk boudin balls, no crawfish Etoufee, fried fish, no oxtails, no Mac and cheese, only 1 order of Brussels sprouts. Still decided to try what they had available. We were told that there would be a 45 min wait for Mac and cheese. Waited over an hour and a half on food and still no Mac and cheese. Service to and from the table was extremely slow! Brussels sprouts came out over cooked. Mushrooms were great! Cooked well still had texture and moisture. Delicious. Jerk chicken was okay. Nothing special really with the flavoring, was cooked well though. Plantains were really good and cooked well. Coco curry shrimp was bussin! Great flavoring and this shrimp was fried to perfection. Pretty spicy but that wasn't a problem for me. Best dish I tasted from the establishment. Lamb chops were good. They were small I think for the price honestly. But no complains about them. The service is what would keep me from coming back here. For it not to be packed I felt like they were way too slow. We spent 2 hours just sitting there waiting. As far as the ambiance is concerned it's NOLA don't expect white table cloth dining at a local spot.

Pina Coladas aren't usually my brand, but damn Gina...these are good! Hand blended and elevated to creamy perfection (hafta recommend the extra rum floater on top). We tried a Toffee & Tequila drink because the flavor combination won our curiosity (it tasted like an espresso drink which I don't enjoy) but we sure liked the thought. She switched to an off-menu drink the server recommended called a Saturn which was quickly emptied. I had a few bourbon & rum cocktails called the Fancy Bombo - and those got me right. We only wanted a couple of shareable small plates to hold us over so we tried the Crab Croquetas and corn tamal. The croquetas were had a crunchy fried exterior and cheesey crab goodness within. I could've eaten about 82 of them if we didn't have dinner reservations elsewhere a few hours later. The corn tamal was a polenta disc topped with so much deliciousness that had me considering cancelling my other reservations. As good as the food & drink are - the service really seals the deal. Everyone in the place is a foodie and exudes a level of sophistication when you inquire about anything. The staff is quick to engage, explain and recommend when called upon. There is a vibe here that will keep me coming back for more. I will just put this out there for those that may need it (and you know who you are) - if you are intolerant of different lifestyles, sexualities and flamboyance...this IS NOT a place you may care for. Many of the staff is diverse and LGBQT adjacent/forward. Don't misunderstand, this is not a place advertised as anything for a certain type of person or group, but if these things make you uncomfortable - don't ruin it for those of us that support all diversity.
