Guys, it was THE BEST CHICKEN SANDWICH I'D EVER HAD. It was lava hot, juicy, and greasy. It was also absolutely delicious. I was concerned that the thigh meat was going to taste different. But I could not tell.The fries were crinkle cut, but were seasoned well. Didn't even need ketchup for them. The place is very clean and they had 80s music playing in the background, my favorite decade of music. Not surprising, being an 80s kid. The damage all told, including a tip, was $25. Is it expensive? Yes. Is the quality and quantity of the food commensurate to the price? Also yes. Is it worth the hype? ABSOLUTELY YES. I was also informed there's a Hammond location. I will definitely bring my family there, as it's closer, to try them out as well.

With its humble beginnings from a food truck to several locations around southern Louisiana. Please…read morerefer to the website for locations. We went to the restaurant in New Orleans (Metairie). It is off Veterans Blvd. It is on the right side as you are driving east. Please be on the lookout. Otherwise, you might pass it by. Tends to spring up and drive by. We almost missed it. This is a fantastic location! Kinda tight and almost missed it. Parking is very limited. If you get discouraged you cannot find a good parking spot. I believe you may park on back street? Do not hold me to that. Worst case, you can always get your order to go. It was our first time. We were curious about and not many restaurants offer fresh made pork cracklings. Usually you have to buy it at a local market or know someone. The staff is very friendly and helpful. They briefly went over a few recommendations. We started with of course, order of adobo fresh pork cracklings. Adobo or traditional** crispy pork belly, adobo sauce, topped with garlic peanut rub Southerns Queso burger - 6 oz. beef patty*, pickled jalapeño, queso, beer battered onion ring with order of fries. Tender meal - Choose your spice level. 3 jumbo chicken tenders, fries, and tender sauce. (Mild) Southerns Original Chicken Sandwich - Choose your spice level. Boneless chicken thigh, Yuzu aioli, slaw, housemade pickle. (Mild) I was curious about the Phuket Sauce. So I got an order too. This tastes great! Not spicy at all. Do not let the pepper fool you. It has a little kick but not spicy at all. All are well seasoned. Few of them you can choose your spice level. We all washed down with fountain drinks. They do offer catering services and possibly call ahead ordering. Please reach out to them for options. If you are in the mood for something different but great food. Give them a try if in the area.

So first let me start off with the food isn't necessarily bad, but it tastes like the absolute bare…read moreminimum of how seafood should taste, not good at all.. just edible. I was on DoorDash and I spent about $26 on a seafood platter. For the amount of food given I could have went to a gas station by my house and gotten all of that for $13. Now does this place taste 2x better? I think they actually tasted 2x worse. There was nothing appealing about the food and the portions were UNBELIEVABLY SMALL. The only good thing on the entire platter was the ONE SINGULAR crab cake. Everything else was either overcooked, had a burnt oil flavor, and had ZERO SALT or seasoning. The fish was god awful as-well. I want to give this place 1.5/5 stars but I'm just gonna round up to 2 stars. I will NEVER come back here again, very overpriced for mediocre tasting food.

Great meal! Another bookmark checked off!…read more I stopped in for a quick solo lunch while in NOLA. It was pretty busy for a weekday lunch and it seemed the bartender was the only one serving the restaurant full of folks. I posted up at the bar thinking it would be my fastest option. He was damn efficient I have to say. He got me taken care of and in and out in no time. He even took time to answer some of my questions about the menu. It's your typical New Orleans place on the inside. Lots of random art, some awards for Ron, and a bunch of signed dollar bills pasted on the wall. I got the Yumbo Mumbo Gumbo, that's the Gumbo with fried shrimp added. Holy hell it was good! I realize that blasphemous, and kind of an oxymoron as well. I don't care, it was fucking fantastic!!! I cannot wait to come back here again! It will be a regular stop from here on out when I am down in the land before time. Come and get you some! If you don't like it, get out of the city now, you don't deserve to be here anyway. '26 - 93

What a waste of money! When I first arrived, I looked around to see if there was a designated area…read morefor to-go orders. I saw a waitress behind the bar area and told her I was there to pick up a to-go order. She just said, "Okay," and walked away to seat another couple. She didn't try to help me, check on my order, or even tell anyone that I was there. I finally asked her if I was standing in the right place, and she said yes. A little later, another waiter came to the hostess station, looked at me, and then she finally told him I was there for a to-go order. The service was bad, but unfortunately, the food was even worse. My gumbo had been sitting under the hostess station, and when I got it, it was COLD and extremely bland. It had more celery than anything else. I honestly don't understand these reviews because either they haven't had good gumbo before or we definitely have very different standards. This was hands down one of the worst gumbos I've ever eaten. I make gumbo waaaaay better than this myself! Definitely a waste of money, and I would not visit here again.

In a large shopping center. So parking is not an issue. They have plenty of parking that surrounds them. They have bunch of handicapped parking spots in the front with ramp on the right side. They do have a few steps in front for easy access. As you walk in, you are greeted by the staff. They mention that someone will be with us shortly. We went on a Sunday before it got crowded. They said we lucked out. They usually get busy when local churches get out. We quickly paid for our table and advised us we welcome to sit anywhere we like. They said they offer many discounts available. Please ask before paying. We sat at a table near the front of the restaurant and easy access to the buffet. They mainly have large tables with hard wood seats and no padding. The waitress quickly took our drink order. Started out with an Arnold Palmer. Rare that they offer that. I don't know so far that another restaurant that offers this. And an ice water. She mentioned that they offer a small selection of beer? We declined. (Drink responsibly) The first plate was sample plate to get my lay of the land. Unfortunately my first plate was full. I noticed that they offer gumbo. So I had to come back for another plate. No offense, the cup was not enough. I was surprised that they served fried swai not catfish. The cornbread was delicious! Usually they are dry at most places. Maybe they been sitting out so long they dry out. This is not the case with them. The gumbo was seasoned just right. It is only chicken and sausage gumbo. Not seafood. Usually you can tell when it is freshly made. To me, it not only look good but taste great! Unfortunately they did not have ice box cake available. Few of the reviews mentioned to definitely grab a piece. However, they did have freshly made bread pudding and chocolate delight. Both were delicious! I could go on about the food. I digress. They offer free Wi-Fi but is password protected. If you are in the area and want some good food. This place does not disappoint. In my opinion.

It's quaint and easy to miss--there's very little signage--so keep your eyes open. Trust me, it's worth finding! I had the stuffed bell pepper , and when I say stuffed, I mean STUFFED! It was packed with ground beef and shrimp and had fantastic flavor. The cabbage was absolutely amazing, and the yams were so good and naturally sweet that they basically became my dessert. I also added a cup of gumbo, which was perfectly seasoned and had a generous amount of sausage and shrimp. More than anything, you could taste the care and love that went into the food. There's something special about supporting a local business where the food feels homemade and the people genuinely appreciate you being there. Thank you, 3 Southern Girls, for a great first experience. I'm grateful to have discovered you and look forward to coming back! Great food. Friendly staff. Local ownership.

Like a shotgun house, the hallway leads past a long bar, then you can see the entire kitchen where the magic happens. Next, there's a big dining room to the side and finally a big room below at the end. The music is loud and the energy is off the charts. Shrimp & Alligator Sausage Cheesecake: Is it an appetizer or a dessert or maybe both? Like a cheesecake, this is rich, sweet, and creamy. And then the chef's imagination goes wild and takes a savory turn. The cake is loaded with chunks of gator sausage, which of course tastes like tender chicken. Bits of shrimp and scallions are strewn across the sweet mustard sauce. Blackened Redfish: The fish is meaty like a thick pork chop. Firm and tender, and super juicy with a sweet and nutty flavor, this is now my favorite fish. Spices such as paprika, cayenne, and thyme add a subtle blackened crust. Swabbing the fish in the silky creamy hollandaise mixed with chili, garlic, and crab is a decadent treat. Shrimp Étouffée: They start with a blond roux, add the holy trinity, garlic, seasonings, and stock to create the flavorful sauce. The gravy smothers the rice. The Louisiana shrimp are incredibly plump and sweet. They start the meal by bringing out a plate of cornbread muffins. There's no need to worry about muffin tops, the entire thing is crispy and sweet. The garlic butter is a game changer.
