    Birthday cake pudding shot. Yum!
    Nikki B.

    Three Legged Dog is a classic dive bar nestled in the French Quarter. It's a 24-hour watering hole with dollar bills on the ceiling, good tunes, and friendly bartenders that serve stiff drinks with a smile. It's also popular with the locals for its boiled crawfish, which is served up fresh daily at 6 p.m. Mom & I stopped in on a sizzling summer day to take a break from the heat. The bartender on duty was a likeable guy with a wicked sense of humor. He told us they just made some birthday cake pudding shots, so we got one to share along with a couple of vodka sodas. I have to say, that pudding shot was strong & tasty. Don't pass it up. *Service fee added for credit cards.

    Street parking only, small corner store with high ceilings, dark dive bar, fans and loud music Loved the music selection, good snacks and strong pour, service was sweet friendly Location like a dive bar, music like a club and restroom like the epic fear challenge

    Crawfish boil!

    I love crawfish season with the Dog. Every friend from out of town now knows to ask to swing by there to enjoy the boil.

    Divey bar which was cool until some idiot came in louder than the music talking crap about wanking himself. The bartender gal entertained him so he didn't shut up! We ordered tots and hatch chili chicken rolls before this clown started so be were obligated to stay. Both items were very salty, so if you're into that, and wanker dude talker, this is your place. The ambience was ok until that point, small hole is the wall with a musty smell and beer gnats everywhere. Egg roll on the floor, so guess nobody cleans. Maybe return, but thats big maybe..

    Was late one night and we wanted something to eat. My friend saw a video of someone recommending this place so we went. It was a Friday night and it wasn't packed. It's a pretty small bar and I thought it was unique they had money on the ceiling. It was about 11:30 and we wanted to order some food. The guy at the bar said the kitchen was closed at the time but that it would open up at 12. So we waited the 30 mins. I ordered the garlic parm wings and mozzarella sticks and my friend ordered the hatch eggrolls(I believe that's what it was like a southwest chicken eggroll). We ordered our food to go. After we received our food two of my friends saw a rat in the restaurant. I know a lot of places in the French quarter have rat issues but it was still nasty to see in the bar. Also they had a lot of water on the ground by the bar which was weird. Food was decent bar food but I wouldn't go back due to the rat sighting.

    3# of Crawdads for $26

    Dive bar with great bartenders. Small place that packs them in, particularly when the crawdads are brought in around 6 during the season. Hard to beat three pounds of crawdads for $26, and there were great, with a briny stock and garlic.

    Live crawfish boil.   So good!

    What a f'n gem of a discovery. We will be back multiple times before we love NOLA. Loved the crawfish boils and drinks special. It can use some AC! We were sweating balls but the time we left. Great 24 hr place to hang out and grab food! Amazing bartenders!

    The crawfish was delicious. I don't know what spices he uses but a great recipe. Also they were playing a great playlist.

    I finally experienced a crawfish boil thanks to this place. Overall I thought it was good, but the crawfish had much smaller tails than other places I've seen. I'm giving this place 2 stars because the bathrooms had no soap and after eating crawfish out of the cooler that everyone was scooping out of, it really grossed me out.

    Crawfish as much as you can fit in that box
    BB S.

    The best crawfish in town served 6pm onwards. Scoop your own crawfish! Reasonably priced drinks! 2 for 1 beer. Cant ask for more. AC was not working well on a really warm Saturday night though. Otherwise, all good!

    When is the season of crawfish?

    They have the crawfish daily at 6. Prime crawfish season in Louisiana is generally Jan-July.

    My wife and I will be there for the Final Four. Will there be crawfish boil Sunday night?

    7 days a week at 6pm, it goes fast so get there on time or even a bit early.

    What days/times do they do crawfish boils in February?

    I was there on a Saturday and crawfish was ready to be served at 6:00pm

    Is this 21 and older or can my 20 year old daughter eat here too?

    They checked our IDs before they let us inside so i would say no unfortunately

    Do they serve crawfish all the time, right now?

    I would assume as long as they are in season, but boils are usually only once a day, I believe. I'd give them a call, they will gladly answer your question!

    Are they serving crawfish this week?

    Crawfish is BACK! Please call to inquire on days, times, and prices. Tentatively Wednesday's at 6 pm and Late Night on Saturday's at Midnight.

    Don’t See Your Question? Ask Away!

    Thank you to the person who recommended this spot. It was…read moreour most favorite meal while in NOLA. The service was fantastic, personable and attentive. The restaurant itself was spacious but had a very cozy ambiance. The food! Everything was so well seasoned and presented. We shared everything family style. The appetizers were tasty. The entrees of fish and steak were delicious. The noodles could have been skipped, they gave the flavor of taco seasoning? The dessert!!! omgoodness. The warm toffee pudding I think it was?? SO FREAKING GOOD. It was the perfect way to end the meal. The crepe cake could be skipped though. Overall what a good well-balanced meal. It honestly made me think of restaurants in the Bay Area. I would definitely come back again!

    The food was really good!…read more Let's start with the highlights. The raw oysters were fantastic. We recommend the brightside if you like briny if not the Alabama were mild and the area 3 were all around good, so no matter what you like they have you covered. They probably rotate them so they may be different when you go. The shrimp toast was good but really the sweet chili dipping sauce was the star of the show for us. The Brabant potatoes were excellent. Nice and crispy on the outside and tender and fluffy on the inside. I could have had these for the meal and been just fine. The grilled tuna and okra was a standout. The best okra I have had I think. Lightly crispy with tomatoes and light sauce that was just fantastic. The were a few bad things though. We shared a bowl of gumbo and it was bland and the shrimp were tiny. It wasn't super expensive but the best gumbo is still my wife's. Lastly, my wife got the hangar steak. It was cooked perfectly and honestly one of the best we have ever had but it was described as having a salsa verde over the top. This is really the biggest faux pas. Salsa verde you think of tomatillo's, jalapeño, cilantro, garlic and lime. What they put on it was more of chimichurri which is parsley, vinegar, oil, garlic etc. We like salsa verde, not so much chimichurri. This definitely had some citrus and mint and maybe a hint of anise in a heavy oil. It was ok, but not all what we were expecting. We mentioned it to the manager and he said the chef was filipino which i am not sure why that would matter. He would know the difference between Mexico and South America which we thought was funny. We have been to the Philippines many times so it was a strange excuse. The kicker is both the waiter and he acknowledged it was more like chimichurri than salsa verde. Oh well. Not the worst thing in the world. If you like chimichurri you should get the steak it was really good. Our waiter was super cool and the restaurant is upscale casual that you see at so many places these days. All in all, it was a good experience and we will come back again. Update: we talked with a friend who is filipino and she said there is a filipino salsa verde that is different from Italian or Mexican versions. We had never had it or heard of it but she said it does have a heavy oil and is citrus forward. I bet this what the manager was talking about. So our mistake. Just thought I would make the correction.

Look no further, friend. Right off the bat, after arriving on a Friday around 4:45 PM we were seated promptly, given water and the tastiest little sweet yeast rolls ever (the tops actually crackled when you squish them you guys), and made our bevvie choices. Tonic with lime for me (I'm behaving rn) and an Old Fashioned for wifey. Killer. We skipped the appetizer course and ended up ordering off the specials menu for both meals. She got braised brisket with deviled egg potato salad (fantastic!) and I got grilled Amberjack with roasted Brussels, topped with pickled peppers, onion, capers, and a drizzle of olive oil and Crema. Did I mention this place has a rustic atmosphere, and cozy feel, AND a Michelin recco without a dress code required?!? We had Lemon Buttermilk Icebox pie for dessert... MY GODS. This pile of words I just typed doesn't do this place justice. Chef Link has got something special going here, and his butcher shop next door is totally groovy too. I can't rave enough about this place, and I wish it wasn't so dang far from Texas, but hey, it's just another in a list of damn fine reasons to come visit the fine folks of NoLa again.

Good amount of fries. Good portion size. Redfish dish was the best redfish we got in town. Great season and cook. Onion rings were a little too thick cut and under fried. definitely get the Brussels for a side. Brussels are a premium side so there is an upcharge but it's worth it. Aside from the limited drink menu, our other small quam is that we were handed two different menus with two different prices and items. We went mid day on a weekday and we got charged the higher amounts. Just odd. Food was pretty good tho for bourbon!

Felix's Restaurant was next on my list based on popular reviews. We walk into an empty restaurant and have our choice of seating. We are seated close to the bar and the waitress brings us both drink and food menus. I ask, What beers do you have on tap? None. We are out of alcohol. What!? There are a few domestic beers available in a can. I order a beer and a dozen charbroiled oysters to start. The oysters. they had a blackened film on them. It's best described as they were cooked on a greasy grill? It's unlike the oysters across the street. The oyster topping did have a unique breadcrumb / garlic mixture. So, topping was good but the cook infused a greasy aftertaste. We also ordered the Bayou sampler which consisted of Red Beans & Rice Jambalaya Crawfish Etouffee For two people they were small portions but made up with flavor! I loved each dish, if we had time I would have ordered full size portions. Now add a beer I'm drinking that's not my choice and the greasy oysters? The best I can give is 3 stars

I don't know if it was burnt cheese or what, but I personally could not eat more than one. The service also wasn't great during our visit. After our food was dropped off, our waiter never checked back in. I had ordered fries separately once I realized they didn't come with the sandwich, but after waiting about 10 minutes with no update, I finally got up and walked to the bar to cancel them because I was almost done eating at that point. Maybe we came at an off time, but overall it just wasn't the experience we were hoping for and probably not somewhere we'd return.

Our waiter, Kay, was attentive and friendly, and the hostesses were just as welcoming, making the entire experience feel warm from the moment we walked in.
