We (husband and 5 month old baby) visited Saturday at 4 p.m. The live music lured us in (walk-ins) and we had a great time. We stayed for two hours and really enjoyed ourselves. The catfish po boy was excellent and served hot. We also ordered the hurricane and blonde Nola ale. We would return again.

Was exactly what I was looking for for the New Orleans experience. Food was great and the band tonight was amazing. Service was a bit slow but the poor waitress was overworked and still provided amazing service. Love that it wasn’t near Bourbon Street with all the disgusting people and felt very safe here. Would highly recommend.

This bar is a great experience away from the sometimes overbearing bourbon st. Listened to two bands that were very good. The lady behind the bar was so helpful. She made cocktails to suit our tastes. The giant pretzel with crab dip was delicious.

So, Saturday afternoon, great weather. The band is exceptional with tons of energy. The food was really tasty. However, beware, $8.50 for a small plastic cup of beer and charging $1.25 for a tiny cup of remoulade sauce without notice was surprising. No beer prices on the beer list. So, go for the music... The service was ok, but I had to chase down the wait staff for the check. Visited the table twice...for the order and to bring the check.

This is one of the coolest clubs on Frenchman Street! No cover…lots of space to dance if you choose! Staff is friendly…good size bar food! If you come to Frenchman St…Atop in before you go to the other spots…it will get you hyped for the day/night—whenever you visit! This space had great vibes!

We were searching for food and live music and this was the spot! We lucked out and while the menu was simple it was really well done local dishes with no complaints. The live band was also well put together and tight. Enjoyed our time.

We were greeted with welcoming service, all the waiters were friendly. We weren't sure what to expect either the live band, but we were not disappointed. This was the best night we had in our 5 day stay in NOLA. We will for sure be back. The drinks were well done and the food was pretty good. Wish the serving size was a bit more. Overall a great time.

Good food, GREAT environment, service not the best. They don't mind spilling your drink on the table or bring the food cold/half warm. God forbid you need more dressing or spices. There also was a leak right above our table, and WE had to move the table so it wouldn't get in our food and drinks.

This was a great place for live music. The energy was high and the band was amazing. I would highly recommend stopping in if you are near Frenchman Street or if you want to get away from the debauchery of Bourbon Street.
