It may look like fried chicken, and some may even describe its taste as fried chicken; however, it has its own unique taste and texture. It's a bit salty, so mixing it with spicy mayo sauce will tune

Located in the heart of downtown, NOLA provides the best Creole food with an ambiance to match. There's no better location for dinner and a drink on Mardi Gras.

My co worker told me this place was really good so I had to check it out for myself. I wanted some shrimp and grits. Atmosphere was cool but the meal wasn't out of this world. Had better for less.

Tried the alligator, first time trying it. Was a bit chewy and over seasoned (too salty). All in all though the food and atmosphere was great

Awesome place to eat when you're downtown. Especially if you can set outside and watch Market Square while you dine.
