I have lived in New Orleans for over 10 years and this is absolutely the worst dining experience I have had in the city, possibly even in the world. The slow, rude, and hateful staff could not possibly care less about the customers or the quality of the food. If the awful service isn't enough of a reason to avoid this so called restaurant, the food certainly is. Horrid is too kind of a description for the food we were served. It was greasy and nothing seemed fresh. Even the coffee...ugh...I can't even begin to describe the foul taste of the brown water in the coffee cup! Of the many wonderful places to eat in my beautiful city, please do not dislike your self enough to go here. Please learn from my mistake. Spare your stomach and your day. Avoid this place at all costs!

A good overall experience. I frequent this place and don't know what the complaints are about. As someone who has worked around the city for a while and now in the quarter, this is one of the few places a local can go to get decent food at affordable prices. I like having the servers know my name and the bartender knowing my favorite drink. As to the last review, I know going in that this isn't some commercialized tourist experience. Sometimes the floor is dirty and the staff is "colorful", this is the French Quarter. I can go for good breakfast on my time (1:30 in the afternoon) or a good dinner and not spend my whole paycheck. Their chicken andouille gumbo is one of the greats in the quarter. For seafood gumbo, I would have to say the gumbo shop down the street is a little better, but the price difference more than makes up for it though. I love this place.

I am working in New Orleans and sampling different restaurants. We had eaten breakfast here and it was good. Service great - staff warm and friendly. BUT, just got dinner to go. OMG, the cook was yelling to the bartender to shut up. The floor was littered, and I mean littered. It looked like they didn't sweep or pick up a thing all day long. Crumbs, napkins, whatever, on the floor. I told the bartender as I waited and he said, "I been trying to get my morning crew on that." It was 8pm ! Anyway, I take my red beans and rice home. It is very good. BUT, I also try their "award winning crab bisque." OMG - it tasted like someone had poured an entire salt shaker into the soup. I crave salt but this soup had to have been sabotaged by someone. I am just about to call them to tell them I will come back tomorrow to get my money back for the soup.
