I'll start by saying I travel extensively and eat out more than 100x/year...so it takes quite a bit…read moreto impress me. That said, Francois Tavern served me the best meal I've had in a year! What a gem we stumbled on here! We had the sample platter for a starter, shrimp, fried tomatoes and lemon pepper wings. Simply amazing! 2 of us had the corn crab chowder which we agreed is one of the best soups we've ever had! For meals we had the Sammy Davis chicken (5*) the Sunrise burger (5*) and the fried ribs( was a 2nd choice as they were out of the snapper. To me, I rate a restaurant on how I feel when leaving, was not worth the money ? Would I come back? We absolutely will, may even do it tomorrow before we fly home as there are so many other meals I'd love to try. As a bonus, the chef came out to greet us and we couldn't compliment her enough. Give this place a try - I promise you won't regret it!

I love the location over the water! Once I got in there was no waiter present, so I seated myself. There were only 3 active tables with guest with ONE waiter. After 15 mins she came and got my order and brought me some water. Well once I got my food 30 mins later, my appetizer was cold, complete cold! I only have maybe an half hour before I get back to work so I just kept the dish. The batter on the tomatoes were very bland! Like it didn't taste like anything. The shrimp were very dry as well. Once I got my grilled shrimp plate, I thought I was in for a treat but .... I was wrong! The plate was extremely hot so I'm preeeeettttyy sure they nuked the dish before bringing it to me because my food was like warm. The BEST thing I had out of my 2 dishes were the Hushpuppies, if they would season their batter like the hushpuppies this place would be jumping!!!! As always let's take the time and apply some more love in the kitten crew. Happy Yelping.

I am not a huge fan of eating fish, but I was really pleased. The food was served hot. The service was fast and the woman who waited our table was a gem. We will go back. So glad they are part of our community.

Cleanliness? Great Seating? Great…read moreFood? Never again The shrimp platter we both ordered was terrible. For $20.99 we got a handful of shrimp, room temp fries, and half toasted bread. They advertised a salad comes with it. The only topping that came with it was tomatoes. The long island was more like a gin and coke in a 8 oz Glass for $10...the rum punch was as expected mostly punch. So $70 on lunch and we both we very unsatisfied.

Love the drive thru... Although you're NOT supposed to drink & drive, which I don't. I do like the…read moreavailability of purchasing a drink without having to enter the stale smoke smelling interior OR having to meander through the crowd indoors... roll up & roll out. Drive thru: Always friendly, availability staff greeting you at the window requesting your drink order. Quite refreshing to have a list of flavors, sizes etc for perusal. I must admit the drive thru is awkward in placement; however, it gets the job done. Indoors: It's just a tad bit more difficult to get a free bartender to take your order, but patience is a virtue, so I will normally wait it out. Dark lighting makes for a club type environment, take it or leave it. Pricing is fair. They often have weekly & daily specials such as $5.50 large daiquiris on Monday & Wednesday, specials on gallon daiquiris on Sundays... just to name a few. This is one of 2 drive-thru daiquiri stores in the area; so pick your poison. For me, it's a go because I'm familiar with the New Orleans Original Daiquiri menu, pricing & specials that I mentioned earlier.
