- I'll add another tip...if you want an appetizer, and are the type that gets full fast, ask for the app size BBQ Shrimp (best thing on menu). Crab cakes are divine! Best service!
- Harrison BrokerSeptember 6, 2015The Mr. B's Orang Julius drink is amazing. Tastes like a creamsicle/dreamsicle. Very sweet, a sweet tooth is a must. Plus, make sure you get the bib for the barbecued shrimp.
- Logan TraceyJune 15, 2013Best service in the city. Tasty food, affordable wine, and worth every penny. Scallops were perfectly cooked. Pork chop was stellar and can feed a giant!Upvoted 3 weeks ago
- Stephanie KimMarch 7, 2020Definitely one of my all-time favorite meals.The scallops and fried oysters were fantastic. Order the seasonal entrees - the rabbit and grouper were so so good. And get all the desserts!!
- diya wadhwaJune 11, 2014The wood grilled fish was amazing! Got them to do a jasmine rice with it instead of potatoes. The sauce was a a lemon butter sauce, green beans still had their crunch! Definitely coming back here 🐠
- Abbey RobertsonDecember 23, 2014Incredible! Service was immaculate, atmosphere very authentic NOLA. The table split: the trout pecan, lobster risotto, truffle butter filet mignon, lump crab cake, lemon ice box pie (best ever!)
- Alexandre MunhozJuly 19, 2018Best in town! This is the only place in NOLA that I have no concerns to recommend to anyone. The seafood gumbo is insanely good.. one issue only, the drinks are not their specialty..
- Jamey MaurerApril 30, 2016We watched a delivery guy scoop live shrimp from his cooler into a container. Asked where they were going.... ummmm all I have to say is FRESH AND DELICIOUS
- PaddyDecember 6, 2014Really classy place for a bite to eat. Tasty bloody marys and delicious gumbo. Servers are very classically dressed and it gives the impression of being back in the 20's.
- Eileen SearlesJuly 11, 2015We went just for the highly-rated pecan pie. It was the best pecan pie we've ever had, with a thick layer of crunchy pecans and the caramel layer soaking into the flaky crust.
- Come for the amazing food, stay for the out of this world dessert, white chocolate, chocolate chip brownie!!
- Shelley SwanMarch 6, 2014Every item I've ever ordered here was great! Always get dessert, the bread pudding is one by which to judge all others. The service is spotty. Sometimes great. Last visit our waiter was super slow.
- Kevin ChangAugust 31, 2014Pork belly is so good! But the Mr B'a shrimp BBQ is definitely killing it! Remember to keep the sauce for the bread!
- Brian PNovember 16, 2015Brunch is great. Best Shrimp & Grits I've found. Made with Bacon Wrapped Shrimp, Creamy Grits and Red-eye Gravy. The Crab-cake was solid too, very little filler.
- Mike Van HoenselaarMay 19, 2013Amazing crew and atmosphere but the best thing is the food. They know their flavors. Excellent choice to go for this one.
- Cindy ForrestMarch 17, 2014Gumbo Ya ya, shrimp & grits, short rib, oysters on the half shell and all the drinks - fabulous! Bread pudding great - and dessert drinks - to die for!
- Genny DeanSeptember 24, 2015This place is the best. Anything you get will be excellent. Get the three sample soups for an appetizer so you can try them all.
- Michelle ScottApril 8, 2015The food, staff, and atmosphere went beyond my expectations. Pricey entrees but very chill, with sports bar option, in case the game is on. Waiting with or without reservation is reasonable.
- ImpeMarch 6, 2017It is a good restaurant with good prices.. But the bbq sauce they put on shrimps is one of the best thing I have ever tasted!!!
- Diana PfaffJanuary 3, 2015BBQ shrimp is my favorite dish in the entire city. Fries oysters and milk punch also amazing.

- virgil hammFebruary 19, 2018Great atmosphere, did not enjoy the gumbo ya ya, it was actually offensive to the taste. The rest of the my party raved about their meal.
- Kari KuntzJanuary 11, 2014Everything I've eaten at this restaurant was absolute perfection. The molten chocolate cupcake with ice cream and raspberries was delectable.

- Greg StephensonMay 15, 2018The food was great, I had a medium rare filet mignon for my main. Unfortunately the ambience was not my thing, reminding me of an old school American diner/steak restaurant with a lot of drunk people
- Cathy PalmeApril 19, 2013A must-visit when in Nola. Great atmosphere, great food. Bloody Mary's are excellent and extremely well-priced!
- Ramon TrotmanDecember 23, 2014That honey ginger something or the other pork chop!!! The only other place once could find such a thing has to be in heaven.

- Bethany HawkinsFebruary 14, 2014Skip the gumbo, crab cakes, etc. and go for the pork belly and figs. Follow up with the lamb chop. Win, win.
