Troy TMay 13, 2014Sat at the oyster bar and had a blast BSing with the guy shucking the oysters. Hurricanes & oysters were both very good. Both were average price for the Quarter. $10 Hurricanes & $13 doz raw oysters.
Chelsea MurfreeJanuary 6, 2015Perfect place on Bourbon, everything we ordered was delicious and our server Ashli was super sweet and helpful. They offer a 15% discount if your a local (aka LA license), Definitely will be back!
Jeannie SandersJuly 6, 2014The OYSTERS...don't leave w/o trying 4 flavors! Try the shrimp & fried green tomatoes. Try the SHRIMP N GRITS. And def try the BREAD PUDDING... they have a #foursquare special!
Jeremy MillsJuly 26, 2012We were going to Acme, but the line was down the block. The caller outside of La Bayou brought us in. I'm glad he did. The server was very nice. Manager was very friendly. And the food was amazing.
Jonathan CottonApril 25, 2013I'm not an expert, but these are the best (and most affordable) oysters on Bourbon Street. Maybe even all of New Orleans? Look for Teddy at the oyster bar! Highly recommended
Michelle KacerMay 13, 2014I highly recommend the Chipotle Chargrilled Oysters!! Delicious flavor!! But you can skip the corn and crab bisque. It lacked flavor.
- Jerry HowardDecember 10, 2015The food there was so good, and the services was on point. Like to thank Ashton and Eric for helping us pick out what was best, and they were great on the service
AlexJune 29, 2013Amazing food. Alligator bites were amazing as was the oysters. Last time I came I ate at a acme, and let me say.. they got some competition.. love love love.
A C L.June 9, 2013Try the Bayou Sampler (crawfish étouffée, red beans and rice, gumbo, and jambalaya) and Fried Cheesecake. Excellent! A Fais Do Do for the taste buds.
