Allie was my server and she was phenomenal. She recommended the grilled oysters and the crawfish fest from the specialty menu. She was very knowledgeable about the menu items and even offered us the gluten free menu for my husband to order from. I'm very impressed by the service of the staff, mainly my server but the while team itself was very efficiently. The oysters came out fast and hot, the food runner Coral was very polite and even greeted us as he approached the table. Allie brought our drinks out within literally a minute and it was a busy night..Even with the brownie a la mode for desert. We were in and out quick even to make a show after. Out of all the places in New Orleans I've never been treated with better hospitality than what Allie showed us tonight. Thank you.

One of the distinguishing features of this - of all French Quarter New Orleans restaurants is that the menu is designed to have dedicated gluten free options for classics like fried seafood. It also happens to have an excellent gf/df spin on a traditional Shrimp Creole, with an addicting bed of vegetables, including some bright and punchy pickled peppers that just make the entire dish pop. As someone with food allergies, this being my first food stop in NO has set the bar super high for me. (Sorry, no photo - ate it all too fast!)

Good Gluten Free options. The house potatoes were stupidly good... I mean wow. I didn't know potatoes could be that good. Also really liked the sticky beets dish, and the grilled carrots dish on the tofu-based ricotta alternative. That stuff was magic (and I'm not vegan). We used that as dip sauce for the potatoes and... it was incredible. For the main course we ordered both the beef and chicken. Both were quite good, but honestly we enjoyed the small other dishes above better than the main course 😅. Had creme brulee for desert, it was good too, but not particularly extraordinary.

Excellent choice for dinner. Top notch service, unique drinks, and a great ambiance. Gluten free options. We tried both raw and charbroiled oysters. Yum! I had the risotto. It had a bit of a kick. Husband had pasta. So good!

Fun place to visit. I'm gluten free, and was able to eat the red beans and rice (most are not gf). Had no issues. Fast-paced restaurant with a good vibe. People I was with got the oysters and they smelled amazing. They loved them. Would go back if I was with gluten eating people so they could experience it.

This was a great find in a recent trip to New Orleans. The food and service were amazing. They were able to point me to several gluten free options. I was able to eat any of the specialty oysters without breadcrumbs. The red snapper dish was also gluten free and delicious. The cocktails were fun, too.
