Worst Food Ever

by Mark Seo at Citysearch

Not sure how they stay in business! Both mine and my wife's dishes were bad. Blackend Shrimp was so salty and greasy my wife had to wipe food using napkins. My etouffee was so waterly and had to look for my crawfish and rice very hard. I thought NOLA was known for food and this was a real disappointment!

Hey Everybody,

Worst food in New Orleans.....stay away and save your money!

Gumbo and oyster po-boys....think that would be OK?

Seems as if the garbage cans were scrapped for our food!

Go anywhere else.....

• Pros: Nothing good with this dive!
• Cons: Poor service with attitude and food fit for the grabage.

Worst. food. ever.

by carlmiller at Citysearch

I went here because Acme had a long line and it was raining, and I was hungry. My gumbo had tiny black shrimp and my etouffee was only small pieces of meat and a little rice and the rest was drenched in hot sauce. my waitress was not a good one, my table never got refills on anything. I'd rather eat Popeye's than this again.

• Pros: the screwdriver was decent
• Cons: waitstaff and food

Pretty lousy

by texasgourmet at Citysearch

Friendly servers, but that's about it. We went b/c their was a line at Acme, now we know why. Shabby decor, muddy oysters, very bland po boys and etoufee. I think I have had better from fast food joints. ANd not cheap either. Two of us, one dozen oysters and two specials = $40. You can do much better.

• Pros: Friendly servers
• Cons: the food, decor and price

stick to the Raw bar

by strembicki at Citysearch

I usually use Felix as a fall back to Acme when I can't get in. This trip we tried a few things, the raw oysters were sweet, cold, fresh. The chargrilled oysters were not cooked enough, the turtle soup was hardly edible and the gumbo was average at best.

If you go here, stick to the raw bar; beer and oysters are a safe bet.

Out service, during the BCS LSU Ohio state game was fine, not terrific, not terrible.

• Pros: raw bar good
• Cons: prepared food average to poor
