The restrooms are not air conditioned and it was just what you would expect from a seafood "buffet" in Bush would be like. A church retreat center in Loranger does a better job serving saltines. What really gets me the most is that it is a copycat of a casino buffet, without the casino revenue. And the location setting with a "disproportionate amount of frogs " makes you wonder where they are sourced from. So please Mr. Fugazi, name another buffet within a 3 hour radius where everything is "frog wafers" and "frog deviled eggs"? The gulf shrimp are 16/20's and you must be posting photos from the Westwego seafood market. Just look at the CUSTOMER posted photos. Food is unknown looking, service is "serve yourself", and the ambiance is 70's with a scent of mildew. It really needs to be emptied and sprayed down with bleach. You have to wait for food to be replenished, and when it shows up you take one. If there was lodging I would highly recommend it to anybody on the FBI most wanted list. It is gauche at best...

Po'Boys, chicken , and salads are also available, with food being served fresh and prodigiously portioned. Today we had catfish platters and they were very good. Catfish was hot, fresh, tender, and crispy. Seasoning was moderate. While most orders seemed to be pick-up, and a lot of the business is live crawfish, bulk shrimp, etc., a small area is available for dining-in and outside. Service is friendly and efficient, and prices are competitive. If you're looking for fancy, you'll be disappointed, but if you're looking for the real thing you will enjoy Columbia Street Seafood in Covington.

Was able to grab some crawfish today, and although I ordered to-go, I was impressed with the service. The crawfish were hot in temperature with a good flavor. For those who want just a light kick with nothing too spicy, this will satisfy that. There's indoor and outdoor seating to enjoy your meal. I'll return to try other menu items.

The location is an older one with strong rural flavor and the decor pretty much shouts small town southern Louisiana. If you're looking for fancy you might be disappointed, but if you're looking for copious amounts of stick-to-your-ribs Louisiana food at reasonable prices you will enjoy Orlando's.

I wanted to order gumbo but they were out. My server, she was by herself today, jokingly said they were out of everything. Besides no gumbo, they were out of potato salad, lemonade and some other stuff. So I went with the All You Can Eat Shrimp and Catfish for $14.95 from the specials board. She brought out a large plate heaping with fried shrimp and catfish on top of fries with a slice of French bread. I didn't think I would be able to eat it all let alone get more, but I managed to eat all the shrimp and catfish by avoiding the fries all together. My meal was very flavorful and I enjoyed it immensely.

Let me live - Better late than never lol] And please notice the quotation marks around "New Orleans," because yeah, I was bamboozled. My company really had me thinking I'd be IN THE CITY eating real Cajun food, soaking up that seasoning, that spice, that Louisiana magic -- and then they drove us all the way across the river to ... Covington, Louisiana. Covington. Be serious. Anyway, once we arrived, before I even attempted a nap, my mission was crystal clear: secure Cajun food immediately. I found New Orleans Style Seafood Restaurant & Market on one of the delivery apps and decided to give them a try. Best choice. Pleasant surprise. I started with the Cajun Crawfish Bread -- that creamy crawfish mix toasted with cheese? Delicious. Like comfort food with a little attitude. Then I had the Bayou Redfish -- grilled, sitting on linguine, all covered in this creamy crawfish sauce? Chef's kiss. Everything blended perfectly. Cajun flavors doing exactly what they're supposed to do. And because I cannot see the word "beignet" and leave it alone, I ordered the beignet sticks for dessert. I'll be honest -- they were good when they were piping hot, but once they cooled down I wasn't as crazy about them. For a layover that had me on the wrong side of the river, this food absolutely came through Would definitely order from them again!
