My sister lives in Cincinnati and loves this place. She was like you have to try it. I love…read moresupporting black businesses so let's do it. The yams and the green beens were the star of the show. Perfect. The greens were tasty as well. My Mac and cheese had a lot of cheese but surprising the flavor didn't hit for me. It was just cheesy. But it looked top tier. The fish was fried to perfection but it was extremely salty. Look I love flavor but this was a little extreme. The salmon bites were tad bit overcooked. They tasted good but were a little dry. Overall the experience was good. I waited like 30 minutes for my food but it was around lunch time and they were super busy. I would go back but try some other times. The cashier was super nice she gave me a free crack lemonade since I waited so long. It was very good. Being from down south (Memphis) we know good food and I will say this was close.

What a gem! This place sits in the heart of Avondale ran by the Chef himself…read more I'm so glad we had the opportunity to try so many items and was very impressed! The lamb chops were my favorite but everything was 10/10 good! The chicken Alfredo was full of flavor, the Philly egg rolls were crispy and so delicious, the shrimp was a little too salty but the salmon bites were perfect. The Mac and cheese and yams are a must try!! We also tried the honey bbq wings and if you like them saucy, Chef nem has you covered! My only complaint was the wait time. We were told 45 minutes but they hadn't started our food until we came back 45 minutes later. I will say they made up for it and took great care of us! I highly recommend calling ahead versus placing orders in person to reduce the time waiting around.

We have been wanting to try this place for awhile now. Went on a Thursday evening, special was…read moreseafood boils and place was crowded. Told it would be 45 minute wait, but seating at bar was first come first serve. So we sat at the bar. Service was great. Brian bartender was top notch and did a great job of explaining menu, drinks and specials. Was not pushy or didn't try to steer us towards one item or another. Jalapeño poppers for appetizer was good. Wife got the swamp water mahi mahi with side of jambalaya. She loved it and only offered me 1 bite! I got the swamp water pasta. This was also fantastic! Portions are large and filling. We didn't try any desserts as there was no room Cool vibe to this place. Nice ambiance. You could tell there were many regulars and everyone was very friendly. Will definitely go back to try the pork chop and the seafood boils next time!! Cost for 1 appetizer, 2 entrees, 2 draft beers and 2 wines was under $100. That's a great deal!!

The oysters had a great charred, Cajun flavor, though they were a little small. The gumbo had that deep dark roux and the smoked chicken and sausage was well seasoned. The staff was personable, engaging, and my server was attentive throughout the meal. Definitely a nice little taste of NOLA in Cincinnati.

Whenever we go out of town, and look for places to eat, I always hit the YELP reviews first. We…read moredon't get paid. We don't get kickbacks. We give honest to the bone reviews. Secondly, when I read the reviews, I always start with the not stellar ones and work my way up. Of 6 reviews, only one had a "1-star". Seems that the poster wasn't satisfied with the greens nor Mac-n-cheese. Interestingly enough, they said the service was great. Anyone who's read my posts knows that I'll eat a batter dipped flip-flop if it was served right! LOL Soooo .... The directions to the place were excellent. But if you weren't paying attention, you'd not notice that it was right on the corner of the liquor store. The place was cozy, very clean, with indoor and outside seating. That was nice because it was hot as a fire ant's tuchus in Cincinnati today. We sat inside and it was pretty cool (even without a/c). As the one-star reviewer posted, the customer service was GREAT. I asked about the fish and chips (I'm weirdly particular about my fish), and was very pleased with the response. They said I didn't have to get chips but can choose any two sides. I had greens and yams. Pimp had the grilled chicken salad. We waited a good bit (about 15 minutes). But as we waited, we got to watch them prepare our orders as well as the many others that were constantly coming in. This is a neighborhood hot spot, indeed. Everything coming out of that kitchen was looking like fire!!! (We made notes of things to try next time, like the Salmon Croquettes). The food came out and the first thing she did was show Pimp the fish to see if it looked to our satisfaction. (Again, GREAT service). The food was hot. Pimp says the salad greens were crisp and fresh and his grilled chicken was flavorful (they even asked him if he wanted bacon; of course he did). Now I gotta talk about these greens. No disrespect nor disparagement to the reviewer who said the greens tasted like they were from a can. I am a connoisseur of greens. I grew up in a house where canned greens were better than no greens at all. I know canned greens. The greens I got today were cooked from fresh (the texture is the tell-tale). The seasoning was spot on. No stems. Tender, yet with enough bite to let you know they were fresh (no matter how you doctor them, canned greens have a slickness to them that can't be masked.) That's not to say they don't or haven't served canned greens before (I know that in a pinch, I will get a can of "Glory" myself when I run short on a holiday). So my opinion is that the greens were fresh or someone has one helluva gift for hooking up canned greens! We're here for three days for a bowling tournament. Having seen that they do DoorDash, definitely gonna hit them again before we head back to D-town. BTW .... them yams. OMG. I could eat the greens, yams, and cornbread as a whole meal. I think that's what I'll have when we hit the road.

I was in the mood for fried catfish and decided to try Louis Cajun Seafood…read more I can honestly say, I wasn't expecting much. However, I was happily surprised. Louis' Cajun Seafood offers seafood boils, fried fish (Whiting, Catfish and Tilapia), fried chicken and sides. I ordered the Fried Fish Basket with 3 Pieces of Catfish and a side of fries. When I got my food, it was hot and fresh. The catfish was fried and had just the right amount of crunch. The fries were crispy and everything was well-seasoned. The flavor, the portions, the entire meal instantly made me a fan. The only problem I had was the sauce I had ordered on the side was placed on top of the food...making the sauce hot. I highly recommend Louis Cajun Seafood to anyone who loves perfectly cooked fish.

One of the best meals of our life, right here!!!…read more My husband had been there for their opening, & was blown away by the food & cocktails. He kept insisting we go. He is NOT a foodie, and is rarely passionate about meals, so this is worth noting. We finally made it in, accompanied by our adult daughter, & holy smokes! Everything was perfection. We started with cocktails, and the outstanding "The Last Word" was the best of the bunch. Our server, Mike, made excellent recommendations for both drinks & food. His suggested wine pairing with the meals was spot-on & his intricate understanding of the menu was so helpful. The sourdough bread with marrow butter was amazing. The grilled bread is the perfect balance of chewy & soft, & does not have that tough crust that is an issue with many sourdoughs. The marrow butter was rich, savory & well seasoned. The salads were fresh & imaginative. The high quality olive oil & house made fresh mozzarella in the Caprese salad was so good!! Two of us had the filets, one had swordfish. The filets were cooked perfectly to order, well seasoned & melted in your mouth like butter. The accompanying Potatoes Anna were so delicious! I found myself wishing for a much larger portion of them because they were buttery, garlicky perfection. The haricot verts & roasted carrots were also tasty. Our daughter got the swordfish & ate every bite on her plate, saying it was amazingly delicious. They have several options for dessert, many of which are made in-house. We all got dessert, with the pots de creme being the stand out choice for two of us. My husband got the sorbet & loved it. The French Pressed coffee was superb - extremely flavorful & rich without bitterness. I ended up having two cups very late in the day because it was THAT GOOD. Prices are on par with other restaurants of the same caliber. Service is exceptional. It was about a 90 minute drive for us, through heavy rains & flooded streets, & it was worth it. We hope to return soon, as we've found our new favorite date night, special event place, & we are definitely willing to put in the drive time as long as they keep rewarding us with these amazing dining experiences.

We were seated with a direct kitchen view. I loved it. I enjoyed the experience. I thought the food was prepared well but some dishes could have been a bit more seasoned. I realize this is a matter of taste. All of our taste buds are not the same. I wished the sea bass and short rib could use more sauce. The couple next to us had dined here at least 6 times and really love it. All of the desserts were delicious. I'll return because I definitely want to try the Oyster Rockefeller. It was a good night.
