Last night was a fantastic Phat Tuesday party. My second one at this establishment. Good times had by all. The staff literally worked their tails off and even the owner Henry wasn't too good to help them out. Serving food, making drinks etc.... Being that it was phat Tuesday you want to get your debauchery on so in turn it was very busy. Some customers got upset but the staff handled it well and did the best they could. read more

This is a great spot to visit! Josh was the BEST server I have ever had in my experience in dining, He was a real OG. I would love to have him serve us again. Josh get 10 stars out of 5. I'll check this spot out again, whenever I'm in town and want a taste of home. I love that the owner is born and raised in new orleans, he brings NOLA to Colorado on a serious tip. The owner was so nice and down to earth. Mr. Henry was very welcoming; he felt like family. My friend and I started with the boudin balls, which tasted more like salmon croquettes, which would have been amazing as croquettes, but as boudin balls, we did not taste rice much at all, and no sauce was served with them. I was desiring some Crawfish ettouffe and they were completely out of that, so i settle for the pasta monica with shrimp, which looked nice, but was way too salty to enjoy. I tried to push through but if I had continue to, it would have burned my tongue. The po boys was great 10/10 the fried catfish was 10/10. fries was 20/10 perfect crisp and softness fillings. hurricane drink was a nice strong & sweetness, a ball was drop when salt was rim vs sugar, but nonetheless it was close to the best. I really want to try that sold out crawfish ettouffe next time i'm here. Thank you Josh for gifting me the blueberry cake that was very sweet!!! I love Mr Henry homemade signature dessert. (Not pictured) Rewards is offered here. military discount is honored here as well. I look forward to returning and exploring the menu; next Colorado visit. read more

Nola Voodoo Tavern - French Fries with Étouffée, Red Beans and Rice. Beautiful to the eyes, and yummy to the tummy! - Cafes Near Me - Denver, Colorado

We were in town for a conference and over hotel chicken... so we ventured out to Nola Voodoo Tavern. Boy were we treated with a culinary experience that was matched by the kindness and efficiency of the waiter, Wes, and the Louisiana hospitality of the owner, Henry Baptiste. Everything we ate had authentic NOLA flavor. The owner showed us how to eat crawfish and even whipped up a batch of beignets! If you are ever in Denver please put this place on your list! read more

4 out of 5 stars "A slice of New Orleans in the heart of Denver--worth the stop!" Stumbling across Nola Voodoo Tavern in Denver was one of those unexpected wins on our foodie adventure. The neighborhood has some real character--yes, it can feel a little rough around the edges with music bumping from cars and locals hanging out--but honestly, it added to the authenticity. We parked safely, crossed the street to a nearby store, and felt completely fine. If anything, it gave us that raw, real NOLA energy we came looking for. Once inside, it's all good vibes. You immediately catch the smell of good Southern cooking and Mardi Gras spirit. The walls, the music, the decor--it screams New Orleans. The vibe lives up to the "Tavern" name in all the best ways. We went in with an appetite and weren't disappointed: * Fried Pickles - crispy, tangy, and fried to perfection * Fried Green Tomatoes - crunchy, fresh, and full of flavor * Fried Chicken Gizzards - definitely a hit with our group (if you know, you know) * Hush Puppies with Blackened Shrimp - bold seasoning and well balanced * Crawfish Étouffée - the crowd favorite! Creamy, flavorful, and comforting--tasted like it came straight out of someone's grandma's pot in Louisiana * Washed it all down with my favorite Abita hazy beer, which always hits the spot when I'm craving that New Orleans feel I do owe y'all an apology though--I was too into the food to snap any pics (rookie move, I know!). But when the owner came over personally to thank us and check in on how we were enjoying everything, that sealed the experience for me. Humble, welcoming, and genuinely proud of what they're serving up. That goes a long way. While I didn't quite have that "I can't live without this" moment, there was definitely enough to write home about. Solid four stars, and I'd absolutely come back again to try a few more dishes and soak in more of that laid-back NOLA flavor. Pro tip: Come with an open mind, a hungry belly, and maybe a little patience with parking--it's worth it. read more

Oh my gosh this place is so goooood!!! Ambiance is great! everyone who works here is super nice and friendly especially deizel. The owner is super welcoming and knows how to make a mean gumbo. The food was spectacular i felt as if i was truly in New Orleans. Highly recommend the muffuletta would come again! read more

We came here on a recommendation and it lived up to its reputation. The tavern has a Mardi Gras festive feel, with a bar, few tables, and a pool table. Our waitress was so friendly and professional. We ordered an IPA, jambalaya ($17) and the trio sampler ($17) that has a sample of the gumbo, crawfish étouffee, and rice and beans. The spice was really good! read more

Loved the food. Service was fast and friendly. Would go back to again. I'm not sure what else to put

Food was amazing! Drinks had a bit of a heavy pour (I just added hot sauce to even it out), and I wish my bloody Maria came with a celery stick. The food was delicious! The etouffee, gumbo, and hush puppies were amazing. read more

The food was good, but the service was subpar. The kitchen was backed up, took well over an hour to get our food. I would try it again, but gotta do a little better. They did take a little off the bill. read more

Only went for drinks and the service was excellent. I grew up a block away and it was nice to see the neighborhood, holding up read more

Nola Voodoo is new & improved too, they've upgraded to a larger spot directly across the street :) the new spot is 3x bigger so it has way more tables & more seats at the bar... and it has more TVs plus two pool tables!! The pool table is nice & the TVs give it more of a sports bar or dive bar feel... and the food is even better bc they expanded their menu a little! Oh & I think a few more taps for beer too, and an expanded liquor selection. Love the new vibe. Great job to the Nola Voodoo team, and thank you for bringing us family recipes straight from New Orleans - the gumbo, jambalaya, & shrimp po'boy are just to die for!! read more

The food (blackened catfish and jambalaya) was excellent on my first visit and I'll definitely be back!

That really solid food was a lot like I had in New Orleans they were pretty spot on prices were reasonable crawfish was amazing.

We went to the Nola on a Wednesday for lunch. The staff is very friendly and upbeat especially Steve. I love the ambiance. Definitely a 70's vintage Creole vibe. We felt right at home. We had the Nola Sampler 3 + jumbalya. It has red beans and rice, gumbo and étouffée . We also had a shrimp po' boy that is out of this world. If I didn't know any better, I would think I was in the big easy. Come for the food, stay for the fun. read more

Yes, I did and yes, I do! I love this place. I went here as a celebratory dinner and will absolutely be back. They have bowl crawfish on the weekends for $20 a pound. I am blown away and amazed by this authentic Cajun Creole Denver gem. The moment I walked in I felt like I was back home in Louisiana. The vibe here is family and laid-back good times. Henry, the owner was very welcoming and his staff was genuinely interested in our experience. I absolutely loved the decor and the family style touches around the restaurant, including Henry's mother's gumbo recipe. We decided not to order an appetizer, but just jump right in and I got the trio of étouffée, gumbo and red beans and rice. For a little bit more I was able to add some jambalaya, which is the whole reason I wanted to go in the first place. Cory had the fried shrimp Poboy with french fries on the side. They have authentic sauces from Louisiana to go with Your meal. That was a super nice touch. Nothing was too spicy, but everything had perfect flavor. You could spice it up more with the sauces on the table if you'd like. And then we found out that it was one dollar wings night on Thursdays. The bartender gave us a great sampling of different sauces that they have to come with the wings. I love their barbecue sauce and their wing sauce. Everything was amazing and tasted like home. However, the gumbo was definitely my favorite. It had this rich smoky flavor and the sausage and the chicken was tender and not falling apart. It was amazing in every aspect. My second favorite would've had to have been the Poboy. The shrimp was perfectly fried and crispy on the outside and tender, plump shrimp on the inside with the perfect crispiness on the French bread. That bread is too live for! So yes, I highly recommend this spot. And you will probably see me there. Let the good times roll! read more

My oyster po-boy was great and a pound of bugs to go was awesome; the people super friendly; and, the room has a very nice vibe. They may have been a bit understaffed Saturday so it was a scosh slow but well worth the wait! read more

Food & drinks were great, fun atmosphere but service was bad. They only had 1 person working and she was bartending and waiting tables in the entire restaurant. By the time we left every table was taken and every seat at the bar and she was the only person working in the front and only 1 cook. read more

At first, because it was so busy and to go orders were flying out the door, we felt a little ignored. But then the food came and everything was delicious. The owner personally came to our table and ensured that our order was perfect. He added a complimentary dessert, just because. He turned an average experience into a wonderful one. read more

The service here was great! Our server, Josh, was super attentive and gave great recommendations! We got the trio, jambalaya, hush puppies, and a few drinks. Would definitely recommend this spot! read more

In town for the weekend from the East Coast and wanted to eat at Black Owned establishments. This spot was great! It is New Orleans ALL DAY! Bartenders Vivian & Drew were welcoming and representatives the place wonderfully. Gumbo was delicious and the fried green tomatoes were "hittin and holdin" (that is great). I had an Old Fashioned that well done. I will be back before I go home. Have to try other dishes. Oh, and the owner came in as well and I was able to speak to him. Certainly authentic NOLA Fare and ambience. read more

Yum!! The sampler is such a genius idea for indecisive people like me. I tend to gravitate towards gumbo or jambalaya, but because of the sampler, I discovered that I enjoyed their etouffee the most! We also went ham on getting other things to try including cheese bread, po boy, and pasta. Everything was great! Needless to say, we had leftovers to take home which stayed yummy! read more

Best catfish I've had in a long time. Nola is the real deal. The red beans and rice was spicy and flavorful with sliced sausage that added a Smokey element. The French fries were crispy and hot with a great flavor from the seasoning. read more

Food is as close to perfect as can be. An absolute slice of New Orleans cuisine. The gumbo is out of this world

Amazing spot! Don't have too many hurricanes lol. No seriously my wife threw up on the walk home. But she also threw up on bourbon street so I think it's appropriate. read more

The food is good but the this place is on the pricey side. The atmosphere is cozy and the owner is friendly.

I loved their po-boy, shrimp was fried to a golden crisp.really enjoyed it. Not a fan of the lettuce but the jambalaya was 3/5 Def worth your time read more

Hurricanes, hush puppies, and shrimp po boys... what more could you ask for?! Everything was soooo good!! Very impressed! I can't wait to go back again. read more

Nola Voodoo Tavern - a drink in a glass - Cafes Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Someone from the area recommended that I head to this establishment for some good food and it did not disappoint. The shrimp po' boy and fried green tomatoes were bursting with the flavor of NOLA... I also had the signature cocktail which was good as well. The atmosphere is great! The only star taken away was because the waitress/bartender wasn't very hospitable. However, the owner did talk to the patrons to make them feel welcomed and I even overheard a "feel good" story about the owner's charity. If you visit Denver and want a taste of NOLA...definitely check it out! read more

This is a long overdue review. I have eaten at VooDoo many times and have several standards that I like to get. The Trio Sampler is good for the first time; I like the red beans and rice and the jambalaya and now order those individually. I love the oyster poor boy and the fried green tomatoes. Most of all, I love the vibe. The drinks are good, and their signature drinks remind me of being in New Orleans. The French 75 will make you order an Uber home. I like sitting at the bar and watching Henry Batiste and the bartender make their signature drinks. Nola VooDoo Tavern is a special gem in the city. read more

True New Orleans cooking!!! Tastes just like my grandmothers red beans and it is totally worth it!!!! Casual environment & football games!

Yum and Fun! ! Went to check out the new location across the street from the original spot. Such a great atmosphere, like you're walking in to meet all your friends! The owner, Henry, makes you feel like you're right at home and his crew is very attentive. This visit I had the Surf & Turf Po'Boy, it was fresh and delicious! The toasted bun was perfect! Paired it with a Copper Mule, mmm. Others in my group had the sampler Platter and the Catfish, there were no leftovers! It's a great place to meet up with friends, watch a game or play pool, and just relax and enjoy yourselves. If you don't have friends, go anyway and I guarantee you'll make some! read more

The food is beyond delicious. The decorations are beyond perfect. Henry and staff are just fabulous. We had a group of 9 (originally 12) and they took care of us. I have tried a lot of things on the menu: fried alligator-tender and delicious Fried okra - always perfect and never slimy Fried green tomatoes - amazing Fried chicken gizzards - very tasty Hush puppies - to die for, I ate the whole basket by myself The sampler of red beans and rice, etouffee, gumbo, and jambalaya. - every one of them was a favorite Blackened sea bass - just the right amount of spice and perfectly cooked Crawfish Monica - tasted my friend's order and had to order my own to go A special strawberry upside down cake - one of the best cakes I have ever had. Highly highly recommend! read more

This is a fantastic spot. The food is amazing (and legit!), the service was great, and the vibe there is fantastic. We brought a larger group than they typically seat, and they accommodated us very well. Everyone in our group loved the food and drinks here. I will definitely come back! read more

I had the shrimp Poboy. It was really good and I did not expect that amount of flavor in Denver, Colorado. I checked out some of the reviews on yelp and decided to give it a chance and it was good. read more

Our usual Cajun spot closed. It had been some time since we'd gotten our Cajun fix. We found this spot based on Yelp reviews, which did not disappoint. It's a very cute establishment, that has a cozy and unassuming, neighborhood vibe. The food was delicious. We tried their sampler which had a nice variety of four of their dishes. Save room for desert though as the blueberry cake was killer. What local gem of a restaurant this place is. We were impressed with our first visit. It won't be our last! read more

The food at Nola Voodoo Tavern was absolutely amazing--full of flavor and cooked to perfection. Every bite reminded me of my grandma's home cooking. Authentic, soulful, and comforting in every way. If you're looking for real New Orleans flavor, this is the spot! read more

Absolutely some of the best Creole food I've ever had anywhere. Henry's recipes are second to none and you can tell he puts a great deal of work and love into his recipes. The service is also fantastic, our server was attentive, kind, and sweet. The vibe of the entire place is low key in a fun way and very comforting. I also super appreciated Henry swinging by to speak to us right before the evening picked up. Thank you all for being so kind and understanding. I will definitely be back next time I'm in Denver. :) read more
