I tried the pork chop with the onion rings and a side of fries. I do wish it came with 2 pork chops because it wasn't that big. It was cooked through and wasn't dried out so that's a plus. The fries were just fries. The food came out hot. I also tried a small piece of the hot sausage poboy. The bread was soft and it was Patton's. There's no complaints when it comes to Patton's Hot Sausage. Theirs tasted better than some of the nearby poboy shops. The service was good. I was with a group and the restaurant was packed so, it wasn't super fast but also, not slow. I'd try this place again.

For some reason this one seafood stand stood out from the rest of the bunch at this marketplace…read more One of the big reasons I guess was the fact that that it was bright pink. Yeah it was kind of hard to miss that building. The reason I went to the Westwego Marketplace was because one of my friends kept talking about all the cheap seafood they sold out there. I figured since I was going to be in that area later that day that I might as well drop by and take a look. I didn't know they had so many seafood stands out that way. But still the pink one stood out the most. They had really good deals on shrimp, crawfish and other assorted marine life that was for sale.The lady that ran the stand was also very nice as well. given the fact I was only browsing I didn't actually purchase anything. But the next time I want to purchase some dirt cheap seafood I will head back this way. In short bargain prices on seafood, and great customer service.

We are a little spoiled when it comes to seafood living in Louisiana. Prices are so cheap here…read morecompared to other parts of the country. Crabs here can be had for $24-30/dozen for medium size blue crabs, crawfish for $2.50-5/lb, boiled shrimp for about $8-10/lb, and most fish run about $8-13/lb. Expect to pay double these prices in other parts of the country. So I have been living on the same block as 3 seafood markets for the past few years. I will drive across the river though to Amy's for all of my live seafood as their prices can't be beat. I have been here for blue crabs, shrimp, and crawfish and truly enjoy the quality of their seafood. All of their employees are super nice and handle your order quickly. If you forget to bring a cooler they will box your food for you! They are also open 7 days a week. Love this local seafood market!!

The same Mac & Cheese was listed for $4.00. It was never explained of a cost difference after being told I can substitute because so I was going to get the Mac & Cheese regardless to try it out. I also ordered the Baked Bread Pudding. Placing the order took a little time and the Kiosk seemed to be a little cumbersome. Paying attention to my receipt, I see a To Go Fee of. $0.75 which isn't much but it was just an observation. Service is not quick! Order was placed at 11:57 and I received my close to an hour later. So I took a seat and patiently waited for my name to be call. Started paying attention to other patrons who were dining in and waiting for their food. Each table had people sitting down and having casual conversation. I counted about 21 people including myself. The atmosphere was pleasant but it was not giving. They had music playing from station 107.5. I'm a stickler for sanitation and it's the little things that matter....dipping cups in an ice machine vice using a ice scooper, wearing gloves particularly when servicing food to those dining in and not using a tray bring out food. Simply doing too much to not be consistently washing hands. Same person taking away soiled trays is bringing out food. One customer had to ask for utensils for his Togo orders as he didn't have any. A second customer just got her Togo order and had to ask for utensils as well. Just saying with a To Go Fee, you think that someone will check or maybe they are just overwhelmed with the services they are trying to provide. 30 minutes later, I'm still patiently waiting and listening to Drake with my AirPods in. So this is heavily leaning towards a One Shot One Kill for me. This business had 6 potential customers who came in and walked out. I witnessed four potential customers who were never greeted or given an explanation as to how the operation goes. It's safe to say they more than likely will not be coming back. They were on the lure but the lack of acknowledgment allowed them to get away. Update: Got my food in To Go containers at approximately 56 minutes after paying for my order. I did check my bag before leaving and no utensils could be found. Once I got back to my office, I saw that they did place a fork in each tray which was essentially covered with food as it was not separated. I would prefer to have a utensil pack or a knife and fork wrapped in a napkin. Guess only reason is that my food all being cooked fresh as it's ordered Joking How was the food? Fish and Shrimp: Tasty with a nice consistency for then breading. Lasagna: Simply did not have the layers for me as meat sauce, noodles, cheese filling (did not exist. The top layer of the lasagna had some hard spots and the ends of the noodle were crunchy. The sauce beneath it was on the sweat side and did not match the same flavor of the lasagna itself. Mac & Cheese: Peppery flavor with cheese tasting more on the Velvetta side. I never pictured Mac & Cheese with shells. Surely was not expecting it to be like this. Bread Pudding: Best Part of the Meal. The flavor, consistency and sweetness were all on point! . They did have sauce on the Menu for a $1 but prior to my order, I thought a sauce was automatic like many other locations serve. I did not let my emotions overtake my Honest review!

He made a reservation and upon arriving, we were seated right away. The interior was very clean, beautiful, and I loved the dimmed lighting. Service was immaculate and friendly as well too! We were checked on constantly and our waters were always refilled. They bring you bread and butter with your meal and the bread was fresh, fluffy, and toasted. We ate all the bread up in minutes! It was delicious! I ordered a dozen oysters and let me tell you, it was probably some of the freshest, plumpest, and juiciest oysters that we've ever had in the states. You can tell if an oyster isn't fresh if it smells or tastes fishy but there was absolutely no fishy aftertaste or smell at all. The oysters were pretty big too!!! It came with crackers, horseradish, lemons, and cocktail sauce. Each bite was so delightful and we all agreed that the oysters were the star of the show. I had a hard time finishing my dozen because the oysters were huge and I was getting full! My husband and brother both had the gumbo and they both loved it as well. My friend had the beef carpaccio and she said it was super fresh and delicious as well. The prices were on the pricier wide but honestly, the quality of the food justifies it. Parking can get a bit busy so I suggest you come early for parking. We were able to snag a spot up front but I can see why this place is super busy! Great service, fresh seafood and delicious food, and a great ambience, what's not to love? We definitely will be coming back again when we are in town!
