Editorial Review for Liuzza's Restaurant & Bar – by Pableaux Johnson
In Short
The single dining room is simple and always busy as nimble servers float through narrow spaces and treat every customer like a regular. The family-run institution boasts an adjoining "old guy" barroom, drinks served in hefty schooners, and a brisk trade in pasta dishes and seafood specialties--just about anything that can be covered in red gravy. Most appetizers are deep-fried--artichoke hearts, pickles and onions, and the house-specialty fried green tomatoes. Liuzza's also lays claim to its own variation of the muffuletta, the "Frenchuletta," served on French bread.

Insider Tips
What to DrinkLiuzza's is justly proud of the frosty thick fishbowls of glass that heft in at about two pounds apiece, so much so that the unmistakable spherical silhouette appears on signs, cards and in the imagination of every Liuzza's customer.

Had to respond to V2flu. This person obviously has no idea what the hell they are talkign about. This is a mussst visit place in NOLA. Used to live on this street, it is not in the gheto. If it was, so what? Cannot believe noone has mentioned the bbq shrimp po boy. My second favorite sandwhich behind the philly cheesesteak(my hometown). It is sublime! A black pepper butter and something I have never been able to tell what it is sauce in a fresh baked french roll which is hollowed out and filled with the pound or so of shrimp and the sauce it was sauteed with. The crab and havarti grilled cheese sand is awesome and very rarely remains on the special board. The fries are fresh cut. The beers in big chalices that are nice and frosty......get an abita for sure. And last but not least, the gumbo. It is one of the best if not the best in the city. Lots of chicken, a couple halves of crab, andouille, and some fresh cooked shrimp added before delivery to the table. I do not live in NOLA anymore, and I dream of this place all of the time!
