5216 Table & Tap

Pleasantly surprised with this place! We found this spot as we drove into NOLA late evening and had Brussels sprouts, oysters, and fish and chips and all were delicious. Service was good then slowed a bit as it got busier, which is understandable, but had a good experience overall.

Food was stupendous, service was remarkable. Way better than the Swamp Room, this is our new hang out on Vets! Drinks were amazing!

me and my family come here to play trivia every Thursday and the food is top notch in the services even better! (If you were to ask me a recommendation I would say the chicken sandwich and the garlic fries) I cannot recommend this place enough!!!

Wonderful little neighborhood bar! Trivia nights on Thursdays is always a blast! The food is up there with the best bar food I've had locally. Assorted drink menu and cute cocktails! Friendly staff! I would absolutely recommend! If you're hungry go with the Birria, trust me!

First went in and was excited that it was no longer the swamp room, looks amazing, bright and fresh. From there the experience went downhill. We sat down and waited for maybe 5 minutes or a bit more before we got menus. We then tried to get the attention of every passing server for what I would say was again 5 minutes to no avail, we finally grabbed someone who nodded and then walked on. After another few minutes someone finally came to take our order, she took our drink order and I ordered a dessert. The drinks came promptly but the dessert took forever, I had to eventually go to the bar (we had not seen our server since getting drinks) and the bartender (although our server was standing right next to her) confirmed the order and went to check on it. When the dessert came out the gentleman who brought it said to me do you need 3 more spoons or are you planning to eat all of this, it was not extremely large, to which I replied, all mine, thanks. The bartender was excellent, personable, came to check on us, and brought more drinks when they were ordered. Overall the bartender saved the night, I would go again just with the hopes that they clone her and service gets better. P.s. it was busy, I will allow them that but it was not busy, the booth behind us never filled with people and there were empty bar stools, but perhaps they did not anticipate the crowd that they had for a Monday night, all be it the Monday before Christmas.

It's ok to grab a drink, but careful of the bartender. They'll bring you drinks you didn't order and charge you for top shelf.

I’ve been coming to this bar for a few years now and I love how professional the employees are and the bartenders are always there to help you with anything that you need.

Updated review: We went back after not going for a while. Service was excellent, burger was good, but I got the same Garlic Parmesan Fries I've gotten 10x before and they were terrible. Instead of a little garlic butter it was just a huge clump of cold minced garlic on fries that were not crispy. It was also freezing inside and they couldn't raise the temperature. Probably around 60°. The place was also a little messy with trash on the floor and tables. Original: My new favorite burger is served here! Went back to make sure it wasn't a fluke and just as good the second time.
