What People Are Saying About Ralph & Kacoo's The Seafood Restaurant
Featured Review

The Scene – This French Quarter mainstay is laid-back and informal; the cavernous space is great for groups of hearty diners or quaint enough for dinner for two. Brick walls, open beams and funky art give the place character. – – The Food – It's billed as a seafood restaurant, but diners can order anything from shrimp cocktail, gumbo and turtle soup to fried alligator, grilled steak and baked ostrich. The seafood comes fried unless otherwise indicated, but it's as fresh as can be. Don't miss the homemade hush puppies and creamy coleslaw. They've embraced a welcome…

Pick this place instead of Bubba Gumps.

The seafood here actually tastes fresh and like it came from the sea. It’s well seasoned, well cooked and with quality ingredients. A step above the rest.

Delightful!
by johntaylor808 at Citysearch
This restaurant was recommended by a local on the street, so we took his word for it. We were very pleased with the service and the entire dining experience, Our servers name was Donald and he was a pleasure. We had steak & mahi combo which was out of this world. As a appetizer I ordered Crawfish Ett. (spelling?) but it was the best taste ever, I want the recipe. The cheesecake with godiva chocolate was super and even better when I woke up to finish it at midnight. We will be back. Thank you and for any of those bad reviews, ignore, they don't know anything, or email me I will tell you the truth about Ralph & Kacoo's and so will N.O. locals.
- Pros: ultimate dining experience, a jewel of a restaurant
- Cons: did not go here on first day of visit, went on last, otherwise we would have went back, form south carolina

WE'LL BE BACK!

Gone Downhill
by tiffnjohn at Citysearch
This place was once my favorite place in the quarter, but after the storm the service and food has really gone downhill. The last straw for me was my last visit. My girlfriend and I were seated and waited twenty minutes, in that time we were given no bread and THEY DID NOT EVEN TAKE OUR DRINK ORDERS. I then stopped a waiter to notify them of this. WE WAITED ANOTHER TWENTY MINUTES with still NO DRINKS OR BREAD. Finally a waiter came to take our drink order, and still did not bring bread by the way. Another fifteen minutes went by and still no bread or drinks came, needless to say WE WALKED OUT. Then on top of ruining our night the manager had the nerve to call my cell, the number i made reservations with, to berate me about walking out after we had ordered our drinks. Needless to say, I informed him that if they ran a proper restaurant I would have never left, but not nearly in those nice terms. On top of all this the place was not very busy. PLEASE AVOID THIS RESTAURANT. The times before this that I have went as of late, the service was also bad and portions small. Their are MANY places in the quarter with better food, better service, and for a better deal
- Pros: Seated Promptly
- Cons: That was the last service we recieved

Good Seafood
by ram727 at Citysearch
Good seafood in the Quarter. They also have good deserts. Try the Pecan with Chantilly Sauce it has bourbon in the sauce makes it great.
