Do NOT be steered away from this place! It may not be the fanciest restaurant in New Orleans, but…read morethe seafood was amazing and the service was spectacular. We came in Saturday night without a reservation and only had to wait a few minutes. Our waitress was amazing from the second we sat down. I really wish I remembered her name because she was super attentive, funny, patient, and honestly made the whole experience even better. My boyfriend and I started with the Creole oysters and OMG... probably some of the best oysters I've ever had. They were incredibly flavorful, and dipping the bread into all that sauce afterward was SO good. My mother-in-law had the fried calamari, which came with remoulade, and she really enjoyed it. For my entrée, I had the jambalaya with chicken and andouille sausage. It was definitely spicy, but really, really good. My boyfriend and mother-in-law both had the grilled red snapper topped with their creamy crawfish sauce, and they loved it. My father-in-law had one of the oyster specials with shrimp and crawfish, which was also excellent. We finished with dessert... boyfriend and I had a chocolate mousse/cake dessert and my in-laws had the bread pudding. Everything was delicious. The atmosphere was casual and fun, they had the football games playing on the TVs, and our waitress was fantastic the entire night. Just an overall great experience. If you love seafood and oysters, definitely give this place a try. I would 100% come back!

ACME Oyster House was one of the first restaurants we ate at on our trip to New Orleans and man was…read moreit such a great start to our foodie adventure. There was a little bit of a wait but it was totally worth it, our server was Mike he was so attentive and really friendly. I'm not a oyster girly, my husband likes them and I told him I'd try them out, so we ordered half a dozen chargrilled oysters, boom boom shrimp, Boudin eggrolls, the New Orleans Medley that has your choice of gumbo, jambalaya, red beans and rice and grilled sausage, we also got a side of hush puppies. Can I just say that I am now a chargrilled oyster girl, ACME's oysters were so good, so flavorful and juicy and man, I am salivating just thinking of it. I made sure to save some of my bread to dip the sauce and I really wish we ordered the full dozen. The Medley was really good too, I opted for the seafood gumbo and wow, it was so tasty, I think the only gumbo experience I had was from Disneyland. Also the red beans and rice was so one of my favorites, Bryans favorite was the jambalaya as well as the oysters and boudin rolls. Boudin is like a blood sausage and his friends had said that because we were visiting we had to try it, we did and tasted fine to me. I wish we came back on our last night to get another round of oysters it was that impactful. Really affordable foods, fast service and such a great fun environment!

Five stars, but can we give Sam a few extra?!…read more We spent the evening watching Sam run the show as the expediter, and let me tell you, this man is a MACHINE! He never stopped moving, kept everything running like a well oiled machine, and absolutely kicked ass all night. Honestly, at some point we were more entertained watching Sam work than anything else going on in the restaurant! By the end of dinner, we had officially become Sam fans and asked our server to send him over so we could meet the legend himself. A few fist bumps and a little conversation later, he did not disappoint! Funny, humble, hardworking, and just an all around great guy. Sam, we see you! Whatever they're paying you, it's probably not enough. Give this man a raise, a cape, or at least a standing ovation! Great food and great experience, but Sam stole the show!

I genuinely do NOT understand the hype around Pêche. We came in with pretty high expectations given…read morethe Michelin Guide recognition and this was easily one of the most disappointing meals we had in New Orleans. We got there about 20 minutes early and they were nice enough to seat us early, which I appreciated. We did ask the host if the AC was working because it was HOT and he looked at us like we had just offended his mother. Weird start. Our waiter Jason came over to explain the menu and immediately seemed flustered/annoyed that we had questions. It was our first time there?? Of course we had questions lol. I told him I have a crustacean allergy. He mentioned shellfish and I clarified that it was specifically crustaceans because I can eat other shellfish. No big deal and I WILL give them credit because they did accommodate my allergy. Before the food even came my father-in-law ordered an Old Fashioned with one large cube. Jason seemed annoyed by that request too, said it was fine, and then the drink comes out with a bunch of regular ice cubes anyway. Had to be redone. Small thing but this basically became the theme of the night. Then the food. I wanted the kale salad and asked if they could leave off the peanuts. Absolutely not because apparently it's the chef's grandmother's recipe and there are NO modifications. Okay grandma. We won't disrespect the recipe. For my hanger steak they offered to cook it separately in a pan because of my allergy which I genuinely appreciated. I also asked if I could ORDER the creamed corn on the side and was told he could ask but couldn't guarantee what the kitchen would do. What?? It's literally on the menu and I'm paying for it lol. They did bring it and it was basically corn kernels sitting in watery liquid. Underwhelming is being generous. The crab claws were good but nothing memorable. My boyfriend ordered the steak tartare and somehow that took longer than everything else because apparently raw steak on bread needed extra time. Then the Royal Red shrimp...THIS was insane. My boyfriend was almost finished when he got to one that was undercooked and SLIMY. At a seafood restaurant with this kind of reputation??? We told Jason and basically got a "thank you for letting me know." Sir. You just served someone slimy undercooked shrimp. Maybe show a LITTLE concern??? For entrées my boyfriend and his mom got the grilled cobia. Tiny piece of fish with a bland corn situation. Mediocre at best. My father-in-law and I got the hanger steak. Mine was closer to rare than medium rare and kind of cold. Again...mediocre. Because of my allergy my potatoes came separately which I appreciated. Mine had aioli underneath them while my father-in-law's SAME potatoes had no aioli whatsoever. We asked someone why and he literally just smiled at us like... No explanation. My father-in-law ended up eating some of mine. Then Jason realized he completely forgot my mother-in-law's Brussels sprouts AFTER our entrées were already out. He offered to put them in but couldn't guarantee they would arrive before we finished eating. LOL okay never mind then?? By this point Jason seemed to be actively avoiding our table and honestly the entire staff looked MISERABLE. That was probably the weirdest part of the whole experience. Everyone looked annoyed. Nobody seemed like they wanted to be there. People kept walking behind us hitting my chair and my mother-in-law's chair. It was hot, cramped and just had a shitty vibe. The saving grace was dessert. The sticky toffee pudding and caramel cake were REALLY good and easily the best part of the entire meal. But two good desserts cannot save an entire dinner. Between the mediocre food, inconsistent service, forgotten order, weird attitude over basic questions and an UNDERCOOKED SHRIMP at a seafood restaurant...I truly do not understand the reputation. Maybe we caught them on a terrible night but New Orleans has way too many incredible restaurants for me to ever waste another meal here.

Enjoyed an Incredible dinner of Cochon at Cochon Restaurant New Orleans!…read more Now THIS is how I love to experience a city! Cochon has earned Michelin Bib Gourmand recognition, and dinner gave us plenty to get excited about! The cochon had that beautiful crisp exterior and tender pork inside, with crunchy cracklings adding even more texture! Those little crispies are the bomb! And the vegetables underneath were every bit as good as the meat. So much flavor in one plate! The wood-fired oysters with chili garlic butter were absolutely delicious. And that bread was perfect for mopping up all those buttery juices. Too good to leave a drop behind! We also had fried livers with pepper jelly on buttered toast points, fried alligator with chili garlic mayonnaise, and boudin balls. Crispy, rich, sweet, spicy... this was a fun table to eat your way around! Exposed brick, warm wood, a glowing wood-burning oven and great service. Add amazing people around the table, and we had an absolutely wonderful night

We had Boris as our server, and he stood out from the very beginning. He was not only pleasant and attentive, but also extremely knowledgeable and made excellent recommendations. What really impressed us was that he took our very specific order without a pen or paper--he memorized everything perfectly! The food came out quickly, and the entire staff worked together seamlessly. It was truly a great dining experience from start to finish. And the desserts were to die for! I highly recommend trying the gumbo, shrimp platter, bread pudding, and chocolate mousse. Everything was delicious. The only downside is the parking. Street parking is available, as well as paid parking options, but it can be a little challenging. Overall, a wonderful experience with great food, excellent service, and a fantastic team. Highly recommended!

Was greeted by the host who had to clean out the table in order to be seated. Restaurant was relatively busy so noise level was intense. Server greeted us asked if we would like water to place an appetizer. We ordered a half dozen of oysters. The server asked if we would like them charred. We told the server we would like them raw. When oysters arrived, they were the size of half dollars (had no taste), there was no horseradish, nor serving forks, or lemons. Told server about our concerns. He brought back one fork, and a saucer of lemons. Tables were pretty close, so when the table behind us ordered oysters, they came out the size of the palm of your hand. Asked server if we could speak to the manager, which he informed me that he would take care of the concern. He bought back another half dozen which were a more reasonable size (had a better flavor). When the server took our entrée order, I ordered the crawfish étouffée, and my friend ordered the shrimp pasta. When the order came out, I could feel the the serving plates were very hot, which let me know that the plates had been in a microwave, my rice was old and hard, I thought I was being pranked, I asked the server for the manger. Manger came to our table to address my concerns, she asked how was the flavor of the étouffée and that she would bring out just a bowl of the étouffée, I told her I couldn't get past the rice in order to taste the rest of the dish, she's still insisted that I should try the étouffée. I told her that once I send food back twice, I could not trust what would come out of the kitchen. She told me she would take my food off the ticket. Server did try to apologize for the service of the food, but the moment was lost.
