Their upside down oysters were the best oysters we had during this trip to New Orleans! They were so good that we sped over there the next day for 18 more. And the gator sausage is BOMB!! More importantly, Braxton, John Tyler, and Armand were amazing, kind, and made the best suggestions on what we should have. We also didn’t have to wait long for our food.
Great place to stop for good food made by great people.
Food was quite good. Did not have to wait super long. Went on a Monday. Waited maybe 25 min for food. Got the seafood platter and bbq shrimp. Both were pretty good. Shopping at the French market made me hungry and this place really hit the spot.
Seafood gumbo was really good, but the hot sausage poboy was a bit disappointing being patties and not links like the Andouille.
Average cost a plate ~$15/ each which is a bit high, but expected for the location.
Reading comments seeing it's a little slow to serve, but not sure what people expect with how crowded a walk up food vendor handles the foot traffic. Took about 5 minutes in line and another 5 minutes to be served...
Solid place with modest patience won't disappoint, but suggest going more with the seafood plates like gumbo or shrimp and grits vs their poboys.
Gumbo is very tasty! Po Boys sandwich is good too
Had the Swamp Platter and Oysters, and everything was delicious and full of spice. Nothing was overly hot and spicy, but had incredible flavor. The oysters and crawfish were so good. Blackened catfish was delicious too. Took a little while to get out food, but worth the wait. Plenty of seating and shopping around.
Baked potato bowl with gator sausage was super delicious! $30 bucks for that and 2 large drinks. It was big and filling. Big enough to share with my husband! It's a must!

I was so surprised to see such low reviews! We did have a 30 minute wait, but it was worth it. We got the swamp platter with frog legs, Cajun catfish, crawdads, and greens. We also got the crawfish and grits. Both were super delicious and worth the wait.
Get the "Swamp Platter". Best food I had all week. A little wait for the food but it's all made fresh to order - gave me time to grab a beer down the way.
This is the best food I've had in New Orleans, I had the catfish platter, it made me cry it was so good. My wife had a big helping of red beans and rice, which was another banger. 10/10 would recommend
I give 5 stars! Even though I waited 55 minutes for a crawfish budin, the flavor was worth every minute of that wait! It's the French market I feel like Its to be expected! The dirty rice was to die for!! FLAVOR FLAVOR FLAVOR! The owner had such a good soul! He took pride in his work!! Big sweetheart! When my food was taking a while he went back and cooked it himself! And he even told us a little of the history behind nawlins!! I will 100% be back!!
