    The sandwich was perfect -- just the right amount of bread, generously filled with large, juicy shrimp, and paired with crispy, golden French fries.

    Superior Seafood was another amazing dining experience during our New Orleans trip! I had…read morechargrilled oysters at pretty much every restaurant we visited, and theirs were definitely some of my favorites... juicy, fresh, and full of flavor. We started with the steak tartare and stuffed mushrooms, and both were absolutely delicious. My hubby had the redfish, which he really enjoyed, and we also loved the desserts! We literally inhaled the food, I didn't even take many pictures because everything was that good! This was our second visit to Superior Seafood this year, and it definitely won't be our last. Great food, great flavors, and a place we'll happily keep coming back to. 10/10!

    Still a Favorite, But Definitely Pricier…read more We went back to Superior Seafood Friday night with my husband and daughter. We've been here many times over the years, but it had been a while since our last visit. We started with the crawfish beignets and spinach & artichoke dip--both were delicious! I especially love the tortillas they serve with the dip, along with salsa and sour cream. For our entrées, my husband had the redfish topped with crab meat, my daughter had the 12-oz steak frites, and I had the seared scallops with green beans. Everything was good overall, and my daughter especially loved her steak. Each entrée also came with a small salad with a light dressing and a couple of marinated olives, which I really enjoyed. The one disappointment was the lentils that now come with the redfish. My husband remembered the dish coming with potatoes, which he preferred. I tried the lentils too, and neither of us was a fan. The restaurant was packed, but we only waited about seven minutes to be seated, and the lively atmosphere didn't bother us at all. Our server was friendly and attentive despite how busy it was. My biggest takeaway, though, was the price increase. Many entrées are now $35-$40+, and by the end of dinner, we realized we had spent quite a bit for three people--enough to make us think we could have eaten at a higher-end restaurant for the same price. Still, we enjoyed our evening and would recommend Superior Seafood. We especially like coming here for happy hour and sitting at the bar, which is probably our favorite way to visit!

Our server, Christopher, was very attentive, suggested wine pairings, and gave us great recommendations. We started with the charbroiled oysters which is a must. They were large and charred to perfection on the outside grill, topped with parm and breadcrumbs. My friends ordered the filet and the gulf fish, and I had the charred cabbage entree, with a French gerwurztraminer blend. The mushrooms with the blue cheese sauce were so rich and delicious! Sweet treats were a no brainer. The blue cheese flan was creamy and decadent. A perfect ending to the meal. This is so far my fave restaurant in New Orleans. It's an honest, no BS creole inspired cuisine. 100% coming back soon!

And yet again, I am so thankful for Yelp steering me in the right direction yet again! A short Uber from the French Quarter brought us to what I believe is such a special hidden gem! The moment you step into Atchafalaya, you realize it. Ambience is amazing, quirky, cool, homey and cozy. Staff is amazing. We sat in our own private room and were treated to a very special delight of a dinner. I tried the incredible fried green tomatoes, the seafood soup (?) and the incredible steak...wow, everything was amazing. And not only did Chef Christopher Lynch come out to say hello to my Autistic son but the owner Tony Tocco did as well and it made his day! HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

    August is a slow month for restaurants in New Orleans, but you can't really tell here. Even on a…read morerandom Wednesday, it was very busy. I came here for the Coolinary menu and it was good. They are known for their oysters and though I did try some, they weren't really my thing. (But that's more of a personal preference than on the restaurant.) I got the Coolinary menu - tuna tacos, lobster roll and lemon cheesecake. The tuna tacos are not on the regular menu, but they should be. Lobster roll was great. I will come back just for the lemon cheesecake alone. Definitely get in on the Coolinary menu while you can as it makes this spot a little more accessible for everyone.

Devil eggs w/ shrimp , good but uneventful maybe if they added a slice of jalapeno? Grilled redfish and lobster roll was great Salmon good only because it was a little undercooked which is ok but not expected Dessert superb Lemon cheesecake cup o Joe and mousse was delicious Atmosphere and ambience was a good vibe with tasteful music with tone down lighting Warm and inviting ambience but cold due to air conditioning Great experience and is top 4 of restaurant in NOLA

It was super close to where we were staying, and since I didn't catch a seafood boil in the Quarter or anywhere else in town, I had to try this spot. My friend and I had our eyes on it, but once our Uber driver confirmed it was a bomb spot, we were all in and it did not disappoint. I even met a lady who drives 45 minutes just to get here, so if she makes that trek, you know this is the spot. I will be dreaming of this place! Being takeout-only gave it that authentic, local vibe, and I loved every bite. Unlike the typical mixed seafood boils, they bag everything separately, and I mixed it all together once I got back to my place. They have some garlic butter you can add, and I got it spicy! It definitely had a kick, and I loved it. I had a pound of shrimp, added sausage, two boiled eggs, the BOMBEST potatoes and corn, all tossed with the spicy garlic butter and I devoured it. Let me just brag on that shrimp and those potatoes for a second: both were amazing. The potatoes were cooked to perfection! Soft, not mushy, and seasoned just right. And the shrimp? Wow. I can still taste it. If you're in NOLA, you have to check this spot out! I will say one more thing though I wish I had room to try the gumbo! I would have loved to taste it here. Lastly, I didn't get to grab a po' boy in town, so we came back the next morning to try one. Sadly, the seafood section wasn't ready yet (we went around 10:30am), but the roast beef po' boy with gravy, lettuce, tomato, mayo, and maybe few other ingredients in it was incredible. I loved it! You'll definitely catch me here again next time I'm in town. 10,000/10. Thank you, cooks! A few practical things: if you're driving, there's parking. The service was friendly, prices were great, and while there isn't indoor seating, the waiting area is decent-sized. Just know it can get busy!
