Deanie's Seafood Restaurant

The 25 Best Restaurants In New Orleans - New Orleans - The Infatuation

"When you want to eat New Orleans-style seafood that’s better (and half the price of what you’ll find at touristy spots in the Quarter), come to Deanie’s on Hayne. Focus on the specials—last time we visited we had the crabmeat-stuffed redfish served with squash and salad for around $20. The seafood platters are also always a winner, especially since they’re totally shareable with heaping amounts of fried shrimp, catfish with stuffed crab, oyster patties, and onion rings. Throw in a few schooners of beer and any of the desserts and you’ll be joyfully stuffed. Say hi to Maw Maw Deanie if you’re there on Thursdays—the original owner hangs out in the casual dining room, and might even come up to your table for a quick chat." - chelsea brasted, zella palmer, carlo mantuano, megan braden perry

The 10 Best Po’Boys In New Orleans - New Orleans - The Infatuation

"Deanie’s on Hayne is somewhere to get amazing seafood that’s half the price of the stuff you’ll find at touristy spots in the Quarter. The same can be said for their po’boys. The shrimp, oyster, and catfish sandwiches are some of the best in town, but our favorite is the stuffed crab. It’s adapted from an entree on their menu with Creole Italian crabmeat dressing that’s served in a hollowed-out shell, or sometimes in little aluminum crab-shaped tins. It’s slightly crispy from being under the broiler, and gets finished off with butter and seasoned bread crumbs. Now imagine that combo on French bread and dressed like a po’boy. The result is fantastic." - megan braden perry
