Queenie’s on St. Claude, Year-Old Daiquiri and Pie Shop, Is Closed | Eater New Orleans

"I note that Fam Bizz, a popular soul-food restaurant on Claiborne Ave, is still going strong; the cooks who ran Queenie's kitchen are also behind Fam Bizz and got their start selling plates at second lines." - Clair Lorell

I got the catfish and red beans and rice. The catfish was some of the best I've ever had! It was cooked fresh. Come here to eat like the locals, it is black owned and ran by some very nice men.

It was my first time going into their establishment and they were super nice. The food was great. I absolutely will be going back if you have time I suggest stopping by and grab a bite to eat. Everything was great.

I found out about this place through my mom. She had their shrimp and grits and as a lover of shrimp and grits, she told me it is a must that I try it. One morning she brought me a shrimp a grits plate from Fam Bizz and it was absolutely delicious! Definitely top 3! Probably number one because the price was reasonable! I never went in the restaurant to experience the atmosphere or service to comment on it, but the food itself was amazing! Will definitely be back.

Tried them out for the 1st time. The punch is amazing! Like really good. It's sweet but not overbearing. I have the wings that they were pretty good, a little hard in spots but realllllly good. The fries were hot and fresh. Burger was dry but a great size. I suggest they cook it with ice and covered to keep in the moisture. Lots of people were coming in ordering the seafood pasta so that will be my next order when i go back. The best part about it was it was full of all beautiful black kings working. I moved that more than the food!

I tried Fam Bizz via a friend who was ordering lunch. I did not go into the business, nor did I order the food, thus my review is strictly on the food that I chose and consumed. I ordered the seafood potato. What I enjoyed most was simply that the potato itself was seasoned with salt before the other items were added. Which is perfect for flavoring. The seafood included a center of some crab meat, crawfish and some shrimp. The part that I disliked most is what I suppose was supposed to be cheese sauce. It was not cheese sauce. This was more some type of brown gravy with milk and powdered cheese. That is the best I am able to describe it. It was bad. I'd try them once more, but a different dish before I will recommend Fam Bizz to others or not.

I went to Fambizz again Thursday July 3, 2025 Again, they didn't disappoint. If you have not tried, my fav "Seafood Platter" It's great. Also the stuff fish on Tues., the wings are the bomb...all their food is great! The customer service is awesome! Warm and welcoming. Yes, I recommend Fambiz! *****

Tried this place the first morning. I woke up in New Orleans. I had to try the shrimp and grits and it was delicious. This is a small family joint that offers delicious food, a small hole in the wall place that has tons of flavor. The service was very friendly. The gentleman was helpful in questions that I asked.

We decided to order here at work and it didn't disappoint. Ordered the steak plate with shrimp and it was a generous portion for $27.50. The steak was cooked really well and was really tender. The loaded mashed potatoes were also good, I just wish it would have came with sour cream. The only regret I have is not ordering one of the specialty drinks. Not pictured was the egg rolls and wings with fries. Support this black owned small business, they're worth it.

Dr. Jose Olmo We came to New Orleans as a way to avoid the Florida storm. NOLA is always our go to place. We seek small out of the way places. Glad we did! We had steak the first day and omelette the following day. Delicious food reasonably priced, nice owner. Highly recommend. Forget the larger restaurants. Come here and enjoy i

I truly love this place. The owner is always so pleasant to speak with. I have been getting the same thing since I have been going because it is that delicious. Grits with cheese, eggs, toast and hot sausage- in other words, a quintessential New Orleans breakfast!! Lol. Go check them out. I can assure you won't be dissatisfied. Not fussy. Just simple delicious food!!!

Absolutely LOVE this place! The steak on Wednesday is ALWAYS juicy no matter what temp you have it cooked to. The lobster on Thursday is both huge and delicious, let's not forget those pineapples on the shrimp skewers!!!! Veggies are fresh, which is important bc I hate frozen restaurant veggies! Omg that BBQ shrimp is AWESOME also, a little different than the standard NO BBQ shrimp but in a good way, still buttery and spicy. You can put that ish on anything!!! Try it all I've had just about everything and all I can say is seafood, veggies and everything is fresh, portions are huge and I can taste the love.

Fam Bizz, friends, is always the right call. Fantastic food. Big portions. Great prices. We live in Broadmoor and work from home a couple of days a week. We try to drop by Fam Bizz at least once a month, and we never leave disappointed. Go support them, New Orleans!

I stopped into Fam Bizz on a Monday after hearing raves about their red beans and rice special. It didn't disappoint. The special come with a hearty helping of red beans and rice, fried chicken, potato salad and toast. The beans were delicious and flavorful and the fried chicken was perfect- tender and juicy. The food here is made to order, so you're going to have a wait if you didn't order ahead, but it's worth it. I wrote more about this spot for Big Easy Magazine.

This is a new restaurant in the Broodmoor /Claiborne area that I had to check out and I was glad I did. This is more of a call in for takeout restaurant that has limited seating so I do not recommend dining in. I called in an order on a Wednesday which was their Steak Night and I picked up my order 20 minutes later with no problems. For $14 each I was able to purchase a steak, a side salad, corn, mashed potatoes and bread. Once I got home and served the steaks on dinner plates I was very impressed with the generous size of the steaks and how each was cooked medium the way we wanted. Both myself and my spouse found the quality of the food a wonderful surprise and again the portions were very generous so both of us were unable to eat our entire meal. FYI Family Bizz is NOT a nice fancy sit down restaurant, but they make GREAT food. I highly recommend Family Bizz for reasonably priced takeout soul food that will fill you up and satisfy you and your loved ones!

People if you are anywhere near this place you need to visit here. This is a hidden gem and so satisfying and the price is amazing. Owned by 4 brothers who have previously worked in the restaurant industry. It was worth every penny spent. We tried the seafood nachos and the BBQ shrimp Po-Boy. The nachos were AMAZING. I had to get the cheese sauce to take home. I am a nacho lover and these were great. Small container, more like an appetizer size but so good. Reading the menu I wanted several items but went with the recommendation of the Po-Boy. It was good but the sauce was definitely different than most BBQ sauces I have tasted, it was unique and tasty. Couldn't finish my Po-Boy and I truly hit a gold mine with the nacho sauce which is the same sauce on the seafood potato. I have my eye on the chicken and waffles and the seafood potato, so that's at least two more visits. Thursday special either shrimp and lobster or steak and lobster with a loaded baked potato, coleslaw and broccoli. I went for the shrimp and lobster and it was great. Lobster was average size so it sounds like a lot of food but it was just right. You will not regret a trip to this restaurant.

Delicious! My girlfriend and I came here without reading reviews because it was conveniently located and it looked local enough to be good. We were not disappointed. The good: - fried fish (oh those seasonings) - fried shrimp - french fries (in Los Angeles we would call these "seasoned fries") - po boy - banana pudding - oddly nice restroom The damn good: - the tartar sauce made me update this review because I almost forgot to mention it. It's homemade and leveled up the whole experience The not so good: - don't come for the ambiance Enjoy!

Ok I'll admit it. It may be cliche' but I did it. I ordered their red beans and rice with hot sausage on a Monday and I have to say it was delicious. The beans had a nice flavor and added ham hock and sausage gave it the extra kick. The potato salad is a mustard base and a tangy version of the dish. I chose the sausage option and to my surprise it was several patties and not a link which is what I was expecting. They offered large portions and for a reasonable $10 bucks. I thought it was worth every penny. They have a menu posted on door and above it reads "New Menu" so I am sharing the photo.

Came here BEFORE closing and was turned away. Chairs on tables. This was my first and probably last. Update: Returned another day. Didn't care for the st Claude wings but the Hawaiian glazed was awesome! Didn't eat the fries, but my son loved them, my fiancé not so much. The seafood nachos were good, just not enough chip for the huge container of cheese they gave. May explore some other things on the menu.

Great spot for takeout. The food was very good -- we had the Thursday Steak and Lobster special. Maybe best mashed potatoes I've ever had! And my kids liked the shrimp (both fried and grilled). Prices were higher than posted here but still reasonable. No dine in available. I'd suggested calling your order in to avoid a wait.

Food was absolutely amazing and satisfying. Food is served in generous portions and filled with flavor. I enjoyed the seafood potato. It was loaded with cheese and crawfish. My friend ordered the BBQ shrimp po boy, which was incredibly flavorful and rich in Cajun seasoning. Great place to eat with reasonable prices. The southern hospitality was real at this place. The chef welcomed me try their delicious banana pudding, which absolutely amazing. I highly recommend this place. Very welcoming and great food.

The oysters were okay but the eggs were very run ya had to see it to know that. Although the steak was salty and Peppered well so it made up for it I think. There was another round of food but we were pretty full.

I always get the lemon pepper wings that comes with fries and some toast.. Everything about this place is amazing only thing is the parking it could get tricky but the food makes up for it also the "Goon Juice" is a must have to it's very tasty! I love this place

Overall good place.. Really good food but it's best to call your order in if you're in a rush! I ordered a 6 piece wings and waited 30 mins for it once and decided to try it again months later and same thing...Also, I'm not sure about the vulgar rap music that plays from the back/kitchen area! Last thing, they could be a little more courteous and say hello or thank you!!!

I live in broodmoor and one day I was in class getting ready for lunch and someone was like let's go to fam Bizz .. in my head I was like wtf kinda name is that but then I remembered what I was always told don't judge a book by its cover / name ... Walked up to a busy little spot with a few tables inside and a bunch of people waiting on Togo tiff so I knew right then I was in the right place . They have it all on the menu , they even have yakamean on the menu until they sell out . Soul food at its finest

Everything we ordered was Great. The homemade tarter sauce should be bottled & sold! I would recommend this place to anyone who love good food! They put this Hawaiian sauce on steak & salmon, it taste like Houston's! Give these people a try! You won't be disappointed. I promise!

Great soul food. Food was hot and freshly prepared. Seating area was clean and comfortable. Most of all the customer service was superb.

The seafood nachos and seafood fries are meals y'all. Amazing seafood cheese sauce over fries had me eating them nonstop and could have been a meal by themselves. Their signature GOON JUICE was a sweet drink with an indescribably good flavor. The wings had a good amount of salt on them but that didn't take away from the overall goodness. The staff was all very nice and helpful. Not a huge dining area so if you hit them up during peak times you may want to get it to-go! Fair pricing for what you get in my opinion. Would like to make it back to try other menu items.

Family Friendly Restaurant, all items are made to order so it does take some time to start munching. However, it was well worth the wait.

The best hot sausage poboy I ever had. Then I went back a few days later and got a shrimp poboy which was just as good. HUGE shrimp. Their BBQ Shrimp pasta was delicious too. This is now my go to spot for takeout.

I had honey BBQ wings and Jazzy fries. It was delicious, and the shrimp on the fries were a good size. I did give 5 stars because the shrimp needed a little seasoning for my taste. Other than that, I will definitely be going back to try some other items on the menu.

This place is EXCEPTIONAL!! From breakfast to dinner, you won't be disappointed. I've tried almost everything on the menu from Red Bean Monday to Lobster & Steak Thursday..... Food is always more than enough, hot, and ON TIME.

Great food! We had hot sausage on a french roll (they have a bun option, but why would you do that, IMO!), and it was excellent! Very good replacement for Gene's, which has changed way too much! We also had the seafood potato also excellent, full of crawfish, shrimp and crab, the portion was enough for two!!! Easy to miss, small door front, but find this place now, you won't be sorry!

Just moved here a few days ago so we're exploring local places for food. Ordered the club sandwich with fries and was super impressed with the presentation and taste. Also the fries stayed crispy inside the to go container the whole way home which is rare. Coming back Monday for the red beans and rice and I'm sure I won't be disappointed. I think I've found my second home. Keep up the great work!
