    Beautiful spot on the water. Walked in and seated on the outside porch right near the dock. Started with a ponchartrain punch. Really great. Ordered the redfish sandwich , grilled with slaw. The slaw is a vinegar base and refreshing just different. The waitress was new but super sweet and helpful. Another terrific experience.

    Great atmosphere and great drinks! Service is excellent and food is great! They even have a playground for little ones!

    Amazing views with stellar service, refreshing drinks, and tasty seafood options. This place was a nice gem to discover but it is not very vegan or kosher friendly as most of the items contain either shellfish or pork.

    This was my 2nd visit to The Anchor! On both occasions the hostess was very inviting and accommodating. The first visit was during the summer season when everyone wants dockside seating. We met two separate couples and had a very relaxing and enjoyable meal with friendly conversation. Today, our visit landed us at The Anchor after a recent cold spell. Anyone from Louisiana knows these rarely last for to long. The day was pretty and the temperature was up, but still chilly. My partner wanted to be seated dockside, I preferred a little heat. The hostess, Nicole, gave us the best of both worlds. She gave us seats with water views but under the very comfortable heaters. Can I say, really accommodating and pleasant! And, that was on the first visit too when it was extremely busy! Our waitress, Emily, was super! I wanted a boozy warm drink. She made something for me that wasn't on the menu, and was quit tasty. For my entree I had the tacos with Firecracker shrimp and sweet potato fries. Spicy & Tasty!!! Honestly, I was to full to eat because we had an order of boudin egg rolls and Nashville wings which was all scrumptious! The sweet potato fries were pretty good; but I could have downed the beer fries on my own. The Boat Burger was seasoned and juicy. As full as I was I took a few bites because, it was delicious! Overall, everything was amazing; from the atmosphere, the service, and the food! I'd be back; hopefully a lot sooner!

    I really really really like this setting. The vibes by the water & the actual aesthetic of the restaurant was my type of vibe. I was disappointed in my food. The picture was good but the food was cold. I made a stop on my lunch break, I waited just about 45 minz for my food to get to me after placing the order shortly after I arrived and when I got my food I wanted to send it back but I didn't have time to wait again. The restaurants restroom is upstairs as well. So don't hold it lol cause you have two flights to walk up.

    Drinks are ok. Service is a bunch of young kids. The food sucks. If this wasn't on the water they would be out of business.

    Tchefuncte’s - Beef carpaccio with oysters

    We really enjoyed Tchefuncte's!…read more They have their own parking lot, so it made it very easy to get in and out. You just park, the go inside, and the restaurant is on the 2nd floor. The service was phenomenal! It was for an anniversary, and they made sure to tell us happy anniversary, and add it to a little sign that was left on our table. Now for the main part: the food. Fried Oysters and Pork Belly - very good, if you get this make sure you eat them together (that was our "best bite" for that serving). Wedge Salad - one of the best wedge salad's we have had. The blue cheese dressing was creamy (rather than chunky blue cheese). It had crispy shoestring onion strings that almost acted as the croutons. I loved every bite that included lettuce, tomatoes, onion, and bacon. Delmonico Steak - this was probably our overall favorite item. Just a great steak, and large enough for both of us to enjoy. Redfish - this was good, not great. Would probably try something else other than this if we went back. Tchefuncte Potatoes - they almost were like a twice baked potato (flavor wise), but they are super creamy and fluffy and then turned into a lightly fried ball. Good and very unique. Crème Brûlée - if you like crème brûlée then you will enjoy it here. A classic dessert that was delicious. And to top it all off, the ambiance was great. It is right on the water, and service was very attentive.

    Our visit to LUMORA was such a great experience. The restaurant is beautiful, very aesthetically…read morepleasing, and has a really nice atmosphere. We started with the chicken wings with honey barbecue sauce. The wings were cooked perfectly and had a good flavor. Next were the bacon wrapped shrimp and these were one of my favorite items of the night. The hot honey sauce was so good and the presentation made them even better. The cheese pull and sauce dripping down really sealed the deal for me. Easily a 10/10. The brussels sprouts completely surprised me because they were SO good. They were topped with pecans, cranberries, pepper jelly, and parmesan cheese, and all of the toppings worked so well together to elevate the flavor of the brussels sprouts. Perfectly cooked and full of flavor. I've been back just for those alone. 10/10. I also tried the Bayou Mac & Cheese which was creamy, flavorful, and cooked well. My only complaint is that it was topped with tomatoes, which wasn't listed on the menu, so I would've asked for it without them, but no big deal. We also had the Cajun Pasta which was good as well. Everything came out hot & Overall, the service was excellent, everything we had was really enjoyable, and the experience matched the aesthetic of the restaurant. I'd definitely return.

Lumora is…read morerelatively new and is by the same folks responsible for The District in Ponchatoula, which is one of our favs. Located on Highway 190, Lumora has a stylish, contemporary persona that is decidedly upscale, but still possesses a comfortable, laid-back vibe that is quite appealing. Service was friendly and efficient and Taylor took excellent care of us. General Manager Josie dropped by our table to share info on Lumora and her visit was appreciated. There is a full bar and a wide selection of specialty cocktails. Today I had a Blood Orange Mezcal Margarita and my wife had an Ex-Presso Martini. Both were great! I highly recommend the Mezcal spice served up on the Margarita's rim in place of the standard salt. We then enjoyed the Zydeco Eggroll appetizer, which the pepper jelly garnish made truly memorable. I then followed with the Buffalo Chicken Pinsa and my wife had the Hot Honey Pepperoni Pinsa. Both were excellent; hot, pleasantly spicy, and generously portioned. We took home a lot of food. Although we had no room for dessert, several on the menu looked quite sumptuous. In short, Lumora Kitchen and Bar is highly recommended! It's a great spot for lunch, happy hour drinks, or a special date night. We will return.
