One of my favorite weeknight go-to’s for oysters with Hubby. Happy hour is great and the oysters are better (both raw and charbroiled) than those at other popular restaurants not to be mentioned in this review. Bartenders are wonderful and the oyster shucker is the best. �
Delicious food, great service and the music on Saturday and Sunday always make for a great evening on the lake. The wedge salad with the blue cheese ice cream is the best in the WORLD!!!
The food here is decent, I’d say it lacks a bit of flavor, but if you like that you’ll do fine. I personally keep to the cocktails and oysters these days. The service though!? It’s stand out, I’ve always had the best experience, Thomas is hands down one of the best! If you’re in the area definitely stop in and have a bite.
One of the great seafood restaurants of New Orleans. Everything they do here is delicious and top quality ingredients only. I live their stuffed flounder and bbq blue crabs.
Nice scenery, good service, okay food. Located between West End Boulevard and the canal to the Orleans Marina. Has a nice view of the canal, the marina, & the back of the Southern Yacht Club. The is plenty of outdoor dining on ground level and the upper lever, covered and uncovered. There is an elevator available to the upper level. Our food was decent. I liked the potato salad. It was not too sweet nor too vinegary. My fish du jour, grilled Mahi Mahi, was okay but it was too bland for my taste. It was cooked perfectly, not too dry nor quivering, but was bland like it was made for the tourists who do not like spicy New Orleans food.
It was an overall great experience. It wasn't too busy, food was delish, and the staff was friendly and attentive.
Great place right on Lake Ponchatrain. Great View, amazing sunset, nice breeze, good food. Delicious food, fun atmosphere and good music. Food was delicious! Service was great and I'm coming back just for the Blue Crab Dip... Highly recommend and I will definitely return.
Beautiful day in New Orleans today so we decided to go have dinner by the lake. Finally I got a chance to eat at The Blue Crab. It’s usually too busy during the weekend. The food was delicious. We had the fried oysters and catfish. Serving size was good because you get side I wanted a salad but you can get French fries, veggies and more. The calamari was probably my favorite of them all. I’ll need to come back to try other items from the menu.
Incredible happy hour deals on oysters and drinks! This alone makes it one of our favorite spots to eat whenever we come to NOLA. It's certainly not fancy, but we didn't come here for for that. Service was extremely good and fast. Will be back for sure!
Great food and location. Located off the water. Best server I have had in a long time. The charbroiled crab is a must have.
Really enjoyed the fish and macaroni. The gumbo was good but maybe missing something that prevents it from being amazing. A little under $78 pre tip for two entrees, coke, and an alcoholic beverage isn’t too bad. The views of the water are calming. The wait was about 30 minutes on a Friday so it was worth it. Everything on the menu looked good. Next time I’ll try something fried.
This restaurant is lovely. The server was excellent and the food was absolutely delish. The Blue Crab Platter was great and I requested the catfish and shrimp to be grilled. We also substituted the fries for sweet potatoes fries. The chargrilled oysters are the best! We sat outside on the upstairs patio and the view was amazing. We were entained after dinner at the ground level with a great band. I highly recommend this restaurant 👌
