    Stepped into the place with the feels and taste of New Orleans! The food portions were massive and flavored well! The staff were ALL friendly and very attentive! Definitely will be back!

    My barber told me about their fish Friday special so I went to check it out. I was greeted immediately, which I very much appreciated. They asked if I was dining in or taking out. I told her I was taking it to go and she proceeded to tell me about the menu. I still opted for the fried catfish, which included trip pieces of fish, two hush puppies, fries and coleslaw, which I don't like. She asked if I wanted extra fries instead so I said sure, but apparently, that came with a $3 upcharge which she failed to mention and I only saw because I asked for a receipt. I also got a cup of Kool aid which they filled to the brim with ice. I took a seat at a table and waited for my food, which took about ten to fifteen minutes. Other people came in and were seated at various tables, there was music playing throughout. The place is set to look like New Orleans, so that was the art in the walls, a mural on the wall and other decor. The catfish was fresh and hot but the cornmeal made it gritty. It could've also been seasoned more. The fries could've been seasoned a bit more. The hush puppies were a bit overdone but it was a good meal, I'd go back to try other things.

    Cool spot to enjoy some Cajun cuisine. Prices are reasonable. Food is flavorful. The service was great. Friendly, attentive, and courteous. Only knock is that the crawfish had an overly fishy taste to it compared to most other places. But overall, Nuttin' Betta was great

    Seafood platter
    Janine D.

    We shared the platter. It was delicious! Only thing I was not super impressed by was the fried catfish. Maybe it was an off day. But everything else was stellar!! Can't wait to come back!!

    I've never been disappointed ordering from here! I haven't dined inside, so I can't comment on the environment, but the food is always leaving me wanting more!

    I was very happy to see this place and the service was great! Food tastes just like back home in Louisiana. Prices were pretty good as well.

    Seafood boil

    The lady at the desk was very helpful and very inviting. I appreciate that. I was sat and served right away. The food is good, good bang for your buck, the food is made at the moment you order. Their fried okra was great, they serve koolaid which was so good. I had a cup of their gumbo and it was also very tasty. Loved coming here, I believe is a family owned and operated and if you're wanting legit Cajun, this is the place for you!

    Fried Catfish

    Listen! If you're missing New Orleans and you miss home, just order the number 1 and get a Catfish Fillet on the side and get yourself some sweet tea or Kool Aid, hands down, can't wait to come back, I don't want to leave this seat and drive home, it's so flavorful and rich, you'll forget you're in San Antonio. I promise you.

    #5 signature special
    Jake L.

    Went on a Wednesday and the place was buzzing. There were several families dining and it was still kinda quiet which is a really good sign. People happily enjoying their food. The music was really good and I was seated immediately. Though she was busy my server was very kind and helpful. With an hour to close I did not feel rushed which is really cool because this is the kind of food you want to take your time and really savor. The menu was really easy to read and had lots of options and pictures across the top. They do have a wing special on Wednesday and poboys and a selection of boils which all looked very tempting but I opted for the #5 signature special offered as a fried, grilled or blackened. I chose the blackened ( it usually takes a little longer but is really worth it. The set up looks really familiar but I can't place it. I do want to come back and try the gumbo and Bourdain balls but I gave up beef and pork for lent. The atmosphere and wall decorations are friendly and playful, they definitely give the place a New Orleans feel. The seats are set up with booths on oneside, a single long booth seat with a couple of tables joining them on the opposite and standard tables in the middle, they definitely make the most of the space provided. All the food coming out of the kitchen looks pretty good, and I'm looking forward to my plate. Oh my goodness this is delicious. The flavors are well balanced without the blackening seasoning over powering the flavor of the catfish or crawfish. The dirty rice is the best I've had in a long time. I highly recommend this spot if you miss new Orleans or you want to be spoiled for everywhere else. C'est si bon

    Services was good the girls were so nice and didn't mind my grandson touching everything lol we had the kool-aid it was soooooo good 10/10 and then we got the sea food platter with fried catfish,shrimp,fried oysters,and crawfish tails everything was really good the side were red beans and rice and Mac and cheese the Mac I give a 5/5 the read beans and rice I give a 8/10 but all in all everything was good

    The restaurant wasn't busy when we got there..it was one table with some people. But we couldn't pick a table to sit at. The drinks were self served. We seemed kind of rushed to order food. The red beans and rice was on point! Very flavorful.

    Grilled fish and shrimp.
    Joan J.

    First time here and everything was delicious. The sauce for the seafood boil was so good. Lots of garlic and very seasoned and not overly salty. I went for a healthier option and got my catfish and shrimp grilled instead of fried. Again, lots of flavor and hush puppies had a hint of sweetness. I wished they were closer but will make another trip over this side of town to eat here. Service was great and the ambiance was very casual and a lot of art on the walls that were New Orleans inspired.

    Gumbo
    Courtney T.

    First time visitors and we were thoroughly impressed!!! -Gumbo was HOT!!!! And, I mean "Hey, while it's cooking, can someone spoon out a serving for me" hot! It was full of flavor too. -Hushpuppies have corn in them, which explains the sweetness. -Catfish was seasoned well, but as another post stated, were on the smaller side for an entree. -Fried Shrimp was jumbo with good flavor. -Jambalaya was just OK-a few flakes of chicken & sausage, but 90% rice....but again, it was hot. -Red Beans could've used more pot liquor. Glad it was noted on the menu that it didn't come with sausage because that would've been foul. -Mac & Cheese was not oven baked, kinda like Chick-Fil-A, which was disappointing -Sweet Tea & Kool-Aid were both on point. We'll definitely return!

    Catfish & Shrimp with mac n cheese and red beans and rice. My apologies for eating before taking a photo of my food.

    If you're looking for great wings in San Antonio, Fried Hard is a must try. The wings were…read moreincredibly fresh and fried to perfection. Crispy on the outside while still juicy inside. What really stood out were the flavors. Even the hotter sauces had amazing taste. Too many wing spots seem to think "hot" means sacrificing flavor, but Fried Hard nailed both heat and taste. Our favorite flavors were the Hot Lemon Pepper and Memphis Bold. Both were packed with flavor and easily some of the best wings we've had in a long time. The food was so good that during our 4th of July weekend trip, we ended up coming back two days in a row. That's probably the best compliment I can give. If you're a wing fan, do yourself a favor and check this place out.

    The wings are ok, but honestly the whole process is inconvenient and makes it not worth their…read morewings. So this place is located INSIDE a bar. We assumed that meant it's like a bar and grill, not just a bar that happens to have a unassociated food window/kitchen at the back. We planned our first ever visit here after family day at the art museum, but the bar staff asked my husband and son to leave while I was trying to find parking (the lot next to the bar is privately owned and charges $19 for 4 hours). That isn't mentioned on their Google page or Facebook page, and on their Instagram, it isn't clear that it is 21+ all the time as it is written right after "late night." I went in on my own to order wings to go. The menu is not written anywhere, and isn't on the website (which would also be a convenient place to mention that anyone under 21 is not allowed on property), so the moved slowly as no one could figure out what they wanted until they reached the only ordering kiosk at the window. Maybe their flavors change frequently? A chalkboard or something would be nice. The wings were very reasonably priced and didn't take overly long. We took them up the road to someplace with picnic tables to eat--only to discover that one of the extra sauces was missing and another was wrong. It would also be helpful if they labeled the different flavors. Maybe it was an off night for the wings, but we didn't get the hype. I think this restaurant is suffering from being too successful too quickly and will hopefully find a way to scale up to accommodate its popularity. Maybe somewhere with menus and access for families. I would try it again at that point, but I can't see going through the inconvenience for their food until then.

My wife and son both had the…read morechicken strips, and they thought they were tasty and obviously not re-formed pieces but actual pieces of meat--something we seldom see these days. The atmosphere is homey. Nothing fancy, but comfortable. Someone had spilled some sugar on the table, and we sat down before they could get someone to clean it up. It was obvious the worker were challenged, as we saw them constantly on the move between cooking, the cashier station and the drive up window. I found the music just a little too loud, but I think I may be fixated on this aspect of dining out. All in all, just what to expect from a small restaurant near a military installation: good food at a decent price without pretensions. Definitely will return.

First off $27.79 for 4 pc tenders and 3 pc seemed a little steep, and they didn't have biscuits. We weren't offered an extra side or discount considering the meal was missing the biscuit. The chicken my husband had was ok , we were expecting a lot more flavor based on the color it came out, but the breast was juicy . My tenders were sad, no real flavor. The batter tasted like flour and that's it. I don't understand if the owners have their flavorful tenders at smoke shack why aren't they to the same standard here . The sauce options are ok , loved the hot honey. The max n cheese reminded us of frozen meal standards. As my husband said "There's good restaurants, there's fast food & then there's Honeys..." Overall I would not recommend it .
