We had an amazing dinner! Samantha was wonderful and gave us so many great suggestions on local sights and the best places to see. Our server, Dominique, was also very attentive and an absolute pleasure to have as our waiter. read more

Great spot for some delicious food away from the hustle and frenzy! Seriously, after walking around, you want to just sit and eat in a nice spot and don't feel rushed. We were so glad we chose to dine here and enjoy our meal. The restaurant is open and spacious, great for celebrating your special occasion with friends and family, without feeling too cramped. The front desk was ready to seat us upon entering and the cold air-conditioning and lively music had us forgetting about the hectic street outside. Our Server Michael was wonderful and told us about the specials and a few recommendations that were tempting enough for us to try. We tried the Shrimp and Alligator wings, and a side of creamy Crab Mac and Cheese. The food came out hot and ready with very little wait time. Food was delicious and plenty, the seasoning was good.Great kitchen staff. Thank you guys. I can't wait to go back again and taste the other items. Melanie the floor Mgr greeted us and checked to see that everything was good. The service here and the food is really with coming back. read more

Our party of 8 enjoyed a recent Sunday evening dinner here. They just reopened and one wouldn't know they'd been closed at all, with how well run things are. Frank was a great server! The Bourbon Streetcar was a good cocktail-strong, but refreshing-both times. Foodwise, the Warm Skillet Cornbread was surprisingly good, while Garlic Parmesan Baked Oysters were excellent. The Swordfish Piccata was good-the Piccata part with arugula, lemon and capers the highlight-imagine what looks like a breaded pork chop, but a firm, large swordfish fillet. Louisiana Crab Cannelloni was enjoyed by several at the table. Finally, the Crab Mac and Cheese was a tasty side. read more

I DREAM about these BBQ oysters. They are so delicious every time!! We also had the crab and Brie fondue dip which was excellent, but didn't come with enough bread for how much dip there was. Gumbo was ok... I've had better elsewhere. Redfish was great! Overall really enjoyed this meal. read more

Good well known restaurant and staple of Bourbon St and the French Quarter. Finally had the chance to get here and it was a great overall experience. Enjoyed the alligator chorizo baked oysters, gumbo, and had to try to namesake redfish with crabmeat. I thoroughly enjoyed the oysters with a nice crisp and flavor packed into the half shell. The red fish was so light and flavorful. Wrapped up the entire meal with their recommended warm double chocolate bread pudding. This sounds heavy but was so light and delicious with the gooey sauce, crunch of the sugared almonds and creamy from the ganache. They said it takes around 20 minutes but we got it much quicker after our meal and happy we had the time to wait for this. Overall good meal and enjoyed the atmosphere and service which was friendly and available to meet our needs when we had them. read more

The Redfish Grill was the best food we ate in New Orleans on our three day trip there. We were greeted at the door and quickly seated. Our server was Gretchen and she is amazing. She answered our questions and recommended dishes. Everything she recommended was delicious. We had the seafood boudin for an appetizer and it was both pleasing to the eye and taste. I had the wood grilled reddish with crab and it was excellent. My wife did two sides since she wasn't very hungry and they were delicious but large. The resturant atmosphere is classic New Orleans. Lastly, this is the only resturant we visited in New Orleans that management checked on us and we had two different people making sure we were enjoying our meal. I strongly recommend you give Red Fish Grill a try you will not be disappointed. read more

Stop one on our food tour. We were served alligator sausage gumbo and our drink was a Hurricane. Both were yummy but I didn't eat the sausage so I still do not know what alligator tastes like and I am good with that lol. Cute decor. The private room we were in displayed the floats and pins they got for participating in the parades. The service was quick and efficient and we had a decent sized group. I look forward to returning and exploring the menu. read more

Went to Redfish Grill with my TimeLeft group and it was a good dinner. We had a great table near the window facing Bourbon Street. I had the buffalo blue cheese oyster poboy and it was ok. For the price there was actually a half poboy and the potato salad side was just meh. My drink from the bar was ok and the service was great. Next time I will try their signature grilled redfish dish. read more

Breakfast on Bourbon Street We had a noon reservation for redfish Grill, and when we arrived, they were still serving breakfast till 2 PM, which surprised us, but we all thought that was good as we had slept in that morning. We ordered some broiled oysters, and their signature cornbread with honey butter. Their cornbread is divine. Don't miss it. We all ended up having eggs, Andouille sausage with grits. The breakfast was good however the waitress team was busy and not as responsive as we would've thought considering they're only four other tables in a 50 table restaurant being served. Was the food good? Yes. Would I go back maybe, but with so many good restaurants in the French Quarter it might be years before we get back to redfish Grill. read more

I visited Red Fish Grill for a work event and had a blast here! Our group was promptly seated in a private dining area. The servers did an incredible job serving a group of our size with efficiency and care. I was very impressed by how all orders were taken and delivered promptly. For my main dish, I decided to go with the classic- Wood Grilled Redfish with Crabmeat. This dish was absolutely delicious! The redfish was cooked to perfection and the sauce, potatoes, and crabmeat just elevated it. I loved every bite. For desert, I went with the Lemon Doberge Cake. I don't gravitate towards lemon flavors but I decided to take a risk with this one. I'm so glad that I did! I have never had such a delectable lemon cake before! The outside was deliciously sweet which complimented the tart inside so well. I would get this again. Overall, Red Fish Grill gets 5 stars and I highly recommend for big groups! read more

As usual, the moment I landed in New Orleans, my stomach apparently took over the itinerary and marched me straight to Red Fish Grill. At this point, it's less of a dinner choice and more of a legally binding tradition. I love this place because it's laid-back, consistently great, and somehow always knows exactly what my post-flight soul needs: gumbo and an old-fashioned. Unfortunately, after years of coming here, I've realized I may have been so focused on eating that I've never actually remembered to take a picture before attacking the food. A true professional mistake. Started off with the gumbo, obviously, along with some Brussels sprouts that were crispy enough to make me briefly consider becoming a vegetable person. Absolutely delicious. Dangerous, honestly. For the entrée, I went with the red fish -- because when something works, why introduce chaos into your life? Zero disappointment. The food here is consistently excellent, the service is impeccable, and the old-fashioned did exactly what an old-fashioned is supposed to do after a long flight: convince me I suddenly have no responsibilities. If you're traveling for work, exhausted from airports, delayed boarding, and pretending your carry-on fits in the overhead bin, this is the kind of spot that resets your mood immediately. Great food, friendly people, and the kind of meal that makes you forget you answered emails from Gate C17 an hour earlier. read more

First the most positive part of evening: Ike an old school NO professional second generation server! Redfish is a friendly modern NO ambiance! Food: Chocolate bread pudding save room it's worth it. The boudin boulettes could have more rice to meat texture, but the flavor was good! The chopped salad needed more chopped and flavorful texture. Add garlic Leydeheymer croutons. Pepper, salad dressing was bland. The Redfish on half shell spot on. This is one of my usual stops when in NO. Just a few tweaks and could get that fifth star! read more

We had lunch here was very good. The skillet cornbread is lethal! I could've eaten the entire thing. Bbq oysters and gumbo was delicious! Service very good and pleasant too. We were staying at the centric hotel which we enjoyed as well. Definitely recommend. read more

Vibes seemed to give higher end restaurant but service didn't match the decor or pricing. Portions were small given the price tag and not super worth the visit. My husband got the redfish special fish entree and it was overcooked. Hanger steak was flavorful but heavily charred on the outside so some of the flavor was lost. read more

Business dinner. Very large group. Service was fabulous. Food was delicious. Red fish was tender and flakey and fresh. Salad and dessert both excellent as well. The only thing that wasn't good was the bread. Very dry and flavorless. But totally unnecessary since there was so much food. Definitely would go back. read more

Service was good. Noise level is high. Get a reservation or be prepared to wait. My husband said the seafood platter was the best fried seafood he ever had- light and crispy. He especially loved the fried catfish. Came with a delicious corn bread too. My red fish with crab was very flavorful but portion was small for the price $39. A little pricey but flavorful. Our bill for only two entrees, no apps, desserts or drinks was $75 before tip. read more

Why why why would you change the best bread pudding in New Orleans to the new one. Been coming here once a year for 15 years, always one of our stops mainly for the bread pudding and bbq oysters. Cost cutting???? Too bad, will look at other options. Service excellent as always. read more

Great seafood spot!! The redfish was absolutely delicious, seasoned perfectly, and cooked just right. The flavors were bold without being overpowering and the portion was generous. Bacon was cooked perfectly. Banana Fosters French toast was a miss for me. Service was fast and friendly, and the atmosphere had that classic New Orleans energy without feeling too busy. read more

Made reservations and was seated almost immediately on a Friday night. Service was weird - a server brought water, our drink order and bar drinks (a bottle of wine) but then we waited for a long while (10+ min) for our server to introduce himself. We ordered an appetizer for the table and our entries. The "crab fondu" arrived - it was flavorful but the fondu itself was very loose and hard to get on the bread. About an hour passed before our entrees were delivered to the table: * blackened redfish filet - sent back 1) it was cold (both the fish and the veg). Not warm-ish but cold, like it had sat somewhere unattended for 20 minutes 2) it was 3 small pieces of fish, not a filet. * shrimp & avocado po-boy - 1) the shrimp weren't seasoned and the onion aioli was almost non-existent, he asked for more but no one brought it 2) the creole potato salad was just regular potato salad. I tasted like it came from the grocery store * wood grilled redfish with crabmeat - sent back 1) Looked better than the prior redfish as a single filet but again COLD. When the 2 plates of fish were sent back to the kitchen there was no apology from the server. He then basically disappeared - given how long it took to get our initial entries we asked to just have the food removed from the bill (and went down the street to finally get dinner, review coming). Again, our server made no apology or offer to try to make it better. Timing and server quality is a problem and needs to be resolved. Additionally a manager should have come to the table to try to recover. Nothing. Left hungry. read more

We did not enjoy our food or service at this place! My cousin recommended it because he lives here. The gumball was horrible. I could tell they scorched the roux! And once you scorch the roux it ruins the whole pot of gumbo! My husband had jambalaya and it was terrible! A bunch of noodles and barely any meat or shrimp! The waiter lacked charisma. I did not recommend coming here. There's got to be better places to eat here in NOLA! read more

As many times as I've been to this place, I've yet to write a review. So now it's time. I tend to come here whenever I'm in town and specifically for the BBQ oysters. You can find raw oysters anywhere and chargrilled oysters too but bbq oysters?! Yeah that's rare. And if you're a fan of Bleu cheese, you'll love em even more. To me, it's less bbq and more Buffalo but they're fried oysters drizzled in the buffalo sauce and topped with crumbles of blue cheese. On my most recent visit, the oysters came out a little too quick for me; like less than 5 minutes. I kid you not. I immediately felt like they were for someone else or someone didn't want them. Like, they just weren't hot off of the platter so that's why I took off a Star. If you have room for dessert, I'd highly recommend getting the bread pudding. It's white and dark chocolate; super rich and divine. And there's no raisins which is a major win. It's never busy and service is decent. I ordered a blueberry mojito for a cocktail. Pretty good. The bartender was very generous as well. He let me try an espresso shooter. I would definitely order that. read more

The service was wonderful. I was part of a large group and the staff did a great job caring for us. The gumbo is some of the best I've had! A lovely dark and rich roux. The bbq shrimp was disappointing. Shell on shrimp were very messy to peel covered in sauce and the dish was very oily. The bourbon pecan pie was incredible and their Sazerac is now in my top 3. I would return but order a different entree next time. read more

I was in NOLA for the French quarter festival and Red Fish was recommended. What a gem in the heart of the French quarter. The atmosphere is very lively. It was packed but the servers paid attention to our needs. Very attentive. The menu has something for everyone - fish, beef, chicken, pasta. The red fish is cooked to perfection. Nice sides too. A very must is the bread pudding with chocolate sauce drizzled on top with vanilla ice cream! Heavenly!! read more

I hate leaving negative reviews, but our experience at Red Fish Grill was disappointing from start to finish. When we arrived, we were informed that several drink selections were unavailable. While that can happen, it was only the beginning of a series of issues throughout the evening. Our appetizers were brought out at the same time as our entrées, which defeated the purpose of ordering appetizers in the first place. My mother's steak was not cooked to her liking, and although multiple servers and managers stopped by our table to check on us, the service felt disorganized. At one point, my mother ordered a drink through a manager, only to find out later that the order had never been placed. The most frustrating part of the evening involved my father's birthday. Our waiter repeatedly mentioned that he had something special for him and asked if we wanted dessert. We politely declined. Despite that, he later brought out a small cup of ice cream with an extremely tough cone and no spoons. We eventually discovered that we had actually been charged for the ice cream, even though we never ordered it. To top everything off, we noticed a large roach climbing up the wall just inches away from my mother's and fiancée's food. At that point, any remaining confidence we had in the restaurant was gone. It's unfortunate because we were looking forward to the experience, but between the poor service, billing issues, food concerns, and cleanliness problem, we will not be returning. read more
