Outside of Pra Lees so disappointed this is as far as I was able to get.
Anthony T.

This rating is based on the fact that I flew into town on my day off of work to give this restaurant a try only to find out that they weren't open. According to their listed hours they were supposed to be open. So you can imagine the disappointment, this is the first place that I hit after checking into my hotel and I was only there for the day so I don't know what's going on with this place. Evidently the health inspector was there the same day because he/she left a note on the door that they were there and couldn't get in either. I flew all the way from North Carolina to try his food and I've been following him for a few years on IG. So pi$$ed.

Haven't been here in awhile but I love the new location it is beautiful. Very inviting and the staff greets you as you enter. They really make you feel welcome. Will definitely be back.

Good people even better food. First time eating here and I must ask myself why have I waited so long. It closes at 7 so you better get there early. I would recommend the Rasta pasta it has a spice to it with the fried catfish. Only disappointment I had was the shrimp plate....it came with 6 small shrimp. Other then that The food was really delicious.

Fried salmon, crawfish mac, Brussels sprouts, salad
Kaitlyn M.

I tried PraLees for the first time today and the food was really good! Both of the guys who were working were very friendly and sweet. He explained the menu items before I chose. They're operating off of a limited menu for now, but it's still a lot of choices! I got the fried salmon (!) so good - I had never had or seen that before, Brussels sprouts, crawfish macaroni and salad. The salmon is great with the crawfish sauce from the Mac and the sauce for the Brussels sprouts is good too. They hd some praline cupcakes on the counter that looked delicious, but i didn't try one. You have to wear a mask to go in and it's take out only, but you can wait inside while they prepare your food. *Make sure you're going to Frenchman St location because when I put the name in maps, it took me to its old, closed location.

Grilled lobster and crab rice with corn and over cooked broccoli
Terrance F.

My wife and I came here on Saturday since it's been on our to do list. It was very hot inside no AC or Ceiling fans inside. I ordered a sprite and was giving no ice with my order which was room temperature and my wife ordered a drink which never came and she had to get her refund of $4.00 back. I was not impressed with this place whatsoever. The lobster was on could have used more season to my liking. The corn was seasoned ok and the broccoli was wayyy overcooked. If you decide to visit I suggest you call your order in first.

Hot wings with broccoli cheese and romein
Tanya B.

Great Find!!! Will definitely go there again. Just like home cooking. The shrimp wrap hit my mouth with different flavors of awesomeness. Hot wings was flavored with just the right spice. I never had romein like that and will absolutely get more. Love it!!!!!!!

Like $45
Jason J.

Don't let IG pictures and likes fool cloud your judgment. Let's get the pricing out the bag first, they're super over priced. A loads of rice on a plate isn't worth $45. I hate to say this but I'm highly disappointed! This was a surprise visit for me and I saw the IG pics like you did and my eyes where like . The food was dry but it had flavor. It seemed like they over cooked my food two times. Great customer service and they're willing to help you with the menu options. Parking! What parking...it's like 2-3 parking spaces (it's New Orleans). The location is what it is. Google it but the street it's on can knock you wheel alignment off.

Heard Dat Kitchen - Bread Pudding

After a long day of travel to get to NOLA, I was too pooped to go out and hit the streets tonight…read morefor dinner. Ordered DoorDash from HDK on the cred of the many positive Yelp reviews and it didn't disappoint. Tried two dishes, as I couldn't settle on one. The fried fish and shrimp were outstanding! Loved the dipping sauce and the seafood was cooked perfectly. The fish fillet was about an inch thick and so moist and flaky. Yum! Not sure I loved the fries with the crawdat sauce - they were a little salty. This ff dish kinda gives poutine vibes with the gravy. The Superdome was also tasty. I liked the fried fish better than the blackened, but the mashed potatoes and corn and sauce draped over the fish was rich and delicious. This fish was much thinner and a little chewy. I'd love a hybrid of Superdome using the thicker fried fish. Bread pudding was my dessert, warm and dripping in caramel/brown sugar sauce. I had to restrain myself from eating the whole thing! This was a perfect way to start my visit to the Big Easy.

I got takeout from Heard Dat during my first visit to New Orleans several years ago and it was one…read moreof the best meals of that trip, so when I visited again it was my very first stop after arriving from the airport. Unfortunately the restaurant was closed as the entire street had a power outage, but the chef very kindly came out to greet us and let us know what was going on and offered us some complimentary cold water for our trouble. I made sure that my group instead came back on our way out, and everyone raved about their meals and said perhaps it was best that we saved it for last! My Seafood Extravaganza came with a THICK piece of blackened fish, a generous topping of grilled shrimp, and excellently cooked fries topped with that crawfish sauce. My friends loved the grits and dark meat fried chicken in their meals. We all dug in so fast I'm sad to say I didn't take any photos to share! The chef came out once again to chat with us, and it's clear he really appreciates every guest. Heard Dat Kitchen offers the best of both soul food and Creole food under one roof with a good helping of Southern hospitality, and it's absolutely worth a trip or ordering in from the more touristy parts of the city. As our rideshare drivers testified, this is the real deal! Keep in mind it only has counter seating and outdoor picnic tables in a pretty small no-frills spot; I think the service and food definitely deserves to be displayed in a full-service restaurant if that is what the chef ever decides to do.

Everything from the catfish and jambalaya to the fried chicken and gumbo was packed with the flavors and spices that can only be found in New Orleans, and every one of us was blown away! The only downsides were they only have takeout for lunch, the food took a while to prepare (well with the wait!), and now my friends' bar for soul food is impossibly high .

While visiting NOLA for my anniversary, my wife wanted soul food in NOLA so I searched Yelp and…read morefound this place. There's not many soul food places in NOLA to my surprise. When you walk in you're greeted and told to get a menu and place your order at the counter. They will bring your food to your table. You pick any available table. That seems to be a thing in NOLA. The place plays contemporary jazz in the background so nice ambiance. They also have TV screens playing sports. I ordered the fried chicken, cabbage and jambalaya. Everything is WELL seasoned! I love seasoned food but this was too much for me. If it was a bit less seasoned I would have enjoyed it more. My wife got the shrimp platter with corn and mac & cheese. She felt her food was good and seasoned well. She wants to go back for lunch. To be fair I'm not a soul food person. It's not my first choice of food since I ate a lot of this food at church.

The bell pepper has shrimp and ground beef in it and taste just like the ones I ate as a kid. Catfish is a must also. Their sides are just ok but still descent. However, I must say that the candied yams are good. This place is a gas station with the food counter in the back of the store. It is a grab and go type place. Parking is limited so you may have to wait until someone moves to park. There are many drink options to choose from like big shot, Fargo, Arizona tea ect. Service is fairly quick but you need to know what you want before you get to the counter because the line moves quickly. Prices get are very reasonable and you get a lot of good for the money. Definitely a must try spot.

In the back of the store, is a deli where they sell soul food and good eats. Once we arrived they were out of all the items I was interested in getting so instead I ordered a 3 piece catfish and a good cold drank. Fish was amazing, fresh crispy, seasoned and well priced. I paid a total of $7 for the fish and two drinks. Service was fast and quick. Ordering area was busy so be sure to come early if you don't want all your selections gone. I'll definitely return for breakfast and snag some grits!
