No no no. Touristy place for sure. Had the jambalaya and some sort of bo boy. Was awful. And so was the service. Didn't taste fresh at all.

The Stuffed Shrimp Pistolettes are the perfect yummy messy delicious treat - kinda of a seafood bisque sandwich!

Been here 5+ times
Changed the menu two weeks ago. Old favorites like the onion soup and the bread pudding are gone! :(

Bloody mary mix is housemade & amazing. Order a draft pint w/ a 'shot' of mix for an outsatnding bloody beer!

Latest from the former mayor of Mexicali Blues: Try the Shock top!!!

They have the BEST french onion soup I've ever had: crispy melted cheese on top and extremely hearty aroma of sakts& seasonings. Yum!

Gator worth the try. Table consensus says generous portions of bland, non-seasoned meat.
Cecilia FraireJune 5, 2015
You have got to try the Hot Brown!

French.Onion.Soup. Crabcakes have a lot of potential, just wish it was more crab than filler

Pistolettes were good, not a fan of the grits
Amanda LincolnNovember 8, 2013
Had our first dinner in NO here. Not really worth it. Good history/story but the food was sub par. Lacked in seasoning all around, fries were from a bag. They don't allow side substitutions.
Jorge CastroDecember 21, 2013
The crab cakes are unreal.
Janey ElmgreenOctober 18, 2017
Not bad, perfectly fine chicken salad for lunch!

Skip the crawfish beignets but grab a bloody Mary.
Lindsay BenedekJanuary 3, 2014
SERVICE IS TERRIBLE!! Our gumbo came out cold.. Not warm, cold. Like they forgot to heat it up. Server never came back to check on us. Waited over 30 minutes for a refill. Food is ok, nothing great.
