The Blue Crab Restaurant And Oyster Bar

We met friends there and had a nice time. The food and the service was good. It's definitely more of a casual place, so no need to dress up. I found it pretty loud inside the restaurant, sometimes it was hard to hear the conversation at our table. They have a children's menu there, so bring the whole family. When we were leaving a band was starting to play downstairs. They had chairs and tables set up and a bar. I'm assuming you can order food downstairs while listening to the band.

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.

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.

Went to an anniversary party there and nearly everything was wonderful. Food was amazing, I couldn't stop eating. Bartender was super nice, my nephews loved her. Parking can be a pain but tolerable. Only minor thing was dirty dishes could've been picked up quicker but wasn't to bad. The experience was great and I can't wait to go back there again.

My husband and I love going to Blue Crab for their happy hour. Both char grilled and raw oysters are part of their happy hour menu along with other appetizers. Happy hours is Monday -Thursday 4-6:30pm. Seafood is always extremely fresh, prices are affordable and they always have great customer service. Besides their happy hour menu we enjoy getting their shrimp and craw fish boiled. It has a beautiful view of the lake and both indoor and outdoor seating.
