"The second [shutdown] is probably three times as hard as the first one. We’re still trying to bounce back from the first. It costs about $12,000 a month to operate my business. But if I’m closed, those bills still have to be paid, and they don’t stop coming. We closed for five months. When they started allowing us to do business outside, that helped us a lot. We were doing okay. The PPP loans they gave us helped some of the employees, but it still was not enough to sustain the business. We’ve taken out another loan; it’s eating up everything. I had a savings account with $113,000, and I’ve used up all that money just to keep up the business. I don’t have that cushion for the second wave. I’ve been open for six years. We sell Louisiana food and the theme is Mardis Gras. People don’t understand we’re not Buffalo Wild Wings; we don’t have that kind of traffic on a normal basis. I don’t get why you can go to Walmart and it’s jam-packed, but you can’t go to a restaurant with 40 to 50 people eating outside." - Mona Holmes

Place has a sign stating no sports attire, but as soon as I got in the door all I see is shorts and sneakers. Friend got some fried catfish for $16 dollars and got 2 small pieces and some fries. For $16 they could do better than that.

Pros: Good Gumbo, Good Live Music, Patrons are Friendly and Fun. Cons: Anti-Veteran, Hostile Belligerant Security Staff, Overpriced Drinks. Notes: They do not let anybody in through the front doors after a certain time. You have to go around back and enter from the alley. The back door is located just across from the trash dumpsters. Security does not have a detection wand, so be prepared to get patted down prior to entry. Yes, they pat you down in the back alley. This is not the ideal place to bring your kids. 420 activity on premises. Observe street sweeping signs when parking in the area. Some of the nearby lots prohibit parking after midnight.

So here we are in Bellflower, looking for something to do. Fell into the French Quarter, a genuine New Orleans type bar/restaurant. Live music, rhythm, and blues. Great place to hear real musicians actually play instruments. There is a DJ in-between sets and a dance floor. Good tasting wings. The drinks....eh, not the best nor the worst. I had a run punch, and friends had a traditional N.O hurricane, again, eh. So, if you want a good cocktail, this might not be the spot. But if you want "down hone" atmosphere and good live music, then definitely come down. $10 cover charge!! Can't bes that Babee!!

My best friend came out from Vegas I wanted to take her somewhere. We found this place It was cool chill vibe No up to date music Temptations and the Ojays is there vibe We were disappointed expected more but the drinks were good and the staff was amazing I'll definitely be bringing my mother one day

Love the service and the atmosphere. Great place to relax and hang out with your friends.

The best thing about this place is no cover charge, free parking, the music, and the photo guy. The food was questionable. We pose a question about it. The menu says 10 wings we got 8. We asked for the manager and she came over and talked to us. She was very nice and sent us another order of 8 wings and a free round of drinks. We might give them another chance. It was my niece's birthday, so we all being from New Orleans, we'll you expect the best. One thing the manager said she closes down for private parties.

Yelp
It was a vibe The chicken wing sauces the shabang & blazin. I love that they had rum punch. The server was nice. They were on it about closing the tab which I understand. I also like the live band vibe. Definitely going back to try something else

Took my friend for her birthday to get some yummy taste of New Orleans food & drink. Whelp ordered the fish & chicken strip dinners we thought. Both came with 2 tiny pieces each, like a tiny lunch special size that should be charged $7.99, not $16.00 each. If you want to plate only two pieces that's fine, but use some nice size dinner pieces. The entrance should be in the front, not in the back. You have to walk through all the cigars, cigarettes smoke. Get matching t-shirts for the waitress or have some kind of dress code for them. My waitress had on her house slippers to work. Just a few suggestions for your future customers.

Good venue. The service here comes with awesome smiles and positive attitudes, but it is SO slowwww. The bar moves fast, but the kitchen...well, at least it's fresh. The food here is mostly good. Catfish, on point. Fried chicken, yummy. French fries, good. Peach cobbler, pass. Naked wings, okay. Red Beans and Rice, good. Drinks, nice. I've been here on a random music night, comedy night, and blues night. Dark atmosphere, but the patrons give it a good vibe.

I'm reviewing Saturday night. So after 8pm it's a nigh club and u have to pay $10 to get in. You can still order food, but the fountain drinks are not refillable. 2 water was $3.66 . DONT ORDER THE GUMBO! it does NOT taste like gumbo AT ALL! I ordered a small and it was $10. Some of my other guests order different food and everyone complained. What I will say is the wings and fries was really good and that was $13, so not so bad. Also the DJ did a good job with playin oldies. I will say this is a coo place to have a small party for older ppl like 40+ they have tables you can reserve for a party and you can bring in a cake and balloons.

Very high priced drinks and the food menu is very limited. The karaoke is very good. The DJ is great. The food isn't good at all.

Huge space that is more club than restaurant at least on a Friday night at around 9pm where the front entrance is manned by security, and a line forms to get in to enjoy the night's entertainment. I've book marked French Quarter Créole Bar & Grill for months & opportunity knocked when I was on the 91Frwy passing by Bellflower Blvd. So I approached security and let them know that I wanted to take out. I was let in right away and directed to an order window where you stand, order, and they hand you a number w/a metal stand designed for those people who have claimed a table. Since Gumbo is already slow cooked food, I got my order in about 5 minutes. This Gumbo is thickened w/a high flame browned roux (roo). Smoky smelling & tasting from the smoked, fatty, porky, rough ground Andouille (ahn doo  wee) sausage as well as from the lightly "burnt" roux. Chicken wings, skin on, add a chicken fond du cuisine brothiness & bit of fat infused richness. The whole shelled shrimps are not over cooked to a mush so often found in countless other Gumbos. The shrimps still retain a soft yet firm plumpiness. The roux based brown sauce has a slight sassy kick of chiles, but also smoky pepperiness from possibly black & white ground pepper. Tons of garlic also adds to the long lingering earthy spiciness.  All the slow, low heat simmering creates flavours that meld into each other for a satisfying, meaty complexity. Possibly, Filé, ground leaves of the Sassafras tree may have been added for earthier flavour & extra thickener. I may like Chef Kim's Soul Food Kitchen's Gumbo better in West Adams because it has a lighter, sprightlier tomato based broth using the same ingredients but prepared in way so that it is not so fatty w/ a  decorative snow crab claw. Sort of a nouveau Gumbo.  But her eatery went out of business. It may still be possible to contact her to have her cater. However, the FQCB&G creates a great traditional Gumbo that goes well w/ the strongly, dry, al dente white rice that is included. It would be up there in Nouvelle Orléans/New Orleans as well as in Duson, Breaux Bridge, Rayne, etc.  I'd like to try the other dishes here like the Crawfish Étoufée & also the Happy Hour menu, but for now 4- Yelp stars for good Southern Louisiana Créole.

The karaoke was Fun and the Dj was good ...I'm not sure about the food ...I was with a group and of 10 and 6 of us ending up throwing up ... we all order shrimp baskets and 2 order chicken baskets ... We mainly order Cadillac Margaritas ...I only had 1 ... and when we recapped how much fun we had ...we found out the majority of us had either thrown up at the restaurant or once we got home ...So l would go back but not eat the food ...maybe it was a bad batch of shrimp but I won't be trying again ..This was April 13th ...unlucky for us

I went to the French Quarter 1/27/23. This place would be cool if it didn't smell like a BIG cigarette. I don't smoke, but it smelled like I smoked 5 packs of cigarettes. STOP the smoking right outside by the front door. Being in there for a couple of hours is a danger to lung cancer. I'm being real. My clothes smelled horrible the next day :(. Also, it's time to remodel. Yall been open for years! Put some money into your place. Old chairs and tables. Clean it up quick!

If I could I would this place a negative 5. I paid 16.75 for catfish and fires too only get 2 pieces catfish and fires they are cheating the ppl out of money.I ordered two drinks one hurricane one on Long Island start it off they taste pretty good by time I got to the end of the Long Island it taste like water. Then come to fine out the Long Island and hurricane was pre-made. Cost me $12.75 for a water down drink. Let's not get on the service so terrible their was only 1 waitress working tables and three bartenders and none of them were making drinks.Then I went to go pay this horrible place cause it was taking to long and the bartender gave me the Stop wait a minute finger.Never see me are my money ever again. This place need to be on that show bar rescue.Bye Felicia

Went here to watch the football game. Place was a nice size, staff was helpful. BUT the food was way to salty. Everyone at my table complained about the salt. I think my blood pressure shot up 50 points. It was like licking a cube of salt....i still tasted the salt in my mouth hours after eating.....

Yelp
On top of terrible service. Waiting over an hour for my food and drinks, that were already paid for by the way. The fries had been sitting for a while because they were already cold. The real kicker was I ordered some shots at the bar, the same shots two different times cost different amounts. Very disappointing experience.

Love this place phenomenal food great customer service. Taylor aka weezy makes thee best lemon pepper wings in the city. I mean I had them on Friday and wanted them every day this week. The bar stays fully stocked , if you don't see what you want just ask im sure the manager Dre has it in the back. Ashley one of the best bartenders I have ever had. I will definitely be their this Friday. I wish they were open for take out during the week the wings are that good.

Came here for the comedy and the comedy was off the chain I think Roy for the excellent performance and performers I will definitely be coming back to this comedy for the 3rd Wednesday of every month. I did try the food I have the french fries and the chicken tenders and they were so good I like the Nipsey drink also.

Yelp
Went in for some take out 4/16/22. Not sure who the bar tender was (the light complexion lady). She had an attitude when asked to change an order. Her response, "I have a lot of people at the bar, what do you want". Just unprofessional! Then when I asked for extra ranch (after I payed for my food), she looked at me, ignored me and went about to serve other patrons. It's all good. If I see her again at the bar, I'll just go some place else. The darker skin bar tender, was great. Thank you for your professionalism. Food was good also.

I love that this place is right in my backyard! I've literally driven by countless times and told myself that "one day" I would stop by and last Friday evening was finally that day! I was looking for a place with a happy hour. Check. (even though I arrived right when happy hour ended- at 7pm). I was looking for a place to watch a band and possibly dance. Check.(very cool r&b/jazz/soul band). I was looking for a place to hang out with no drama, good vibe and food. Check. (Even though I didn't eat, the food looked authentic). We sat at the bar and all of the bartenders checked on us frequently so I don't know why the other Yelpers were complaining about service? Our main bartender was Keysha but the other ladies were always making sure our glasses were full too! Oh, and to some of those other Yelpers who were claiming that they didn't get service because they were not the right color- look here... attitude has no color and if you're a douche, expect to be treated like one and don't say that it is because you're not of a certain color! Ok rant over. Just go here... enjoy the food, drinks and chill vibe!

The food is terrible! The chicken strips are hard/dry and flavorless! Not a pinch of salt anywhere... the catfish was trash! I would. Never come here for food ever again. They get to stars because the waitress was very nice and the drinks were a 3 out of five. Cajun cuisine where????

Saturday night = hot ass OVERCROWDED mess!! I tried this place for the 2nd time. My friend had her birthday party here and reserved tables for about 20 of us. When I say people were from wall to wall, I mean people were from wall to wall. Good for business, I'm sure. But the place had to be at capacity, or more!! Party tables lined damn-near every inch of space in the club. I was shocked at the changes since my birthday dinner 2 years ago. What used to be the dance floor was no more. It was replaced by MORE tables!! The dance floor was yay big right in front of the small stage in the back. If you snap your fingers and turn around, you'll bump into someone. Then the dance floor has the nerve to be lined with couches. I assume that is VIP. Lol!!! Either way, it is hot as fish grease in the place. There's no circulation, no air, very little walking space, and trying to get to the bar is a joke. What's worse...we ordered 6 drinks at our party table around 9:30. I felt sorry for our young waiter. We kept asking and he kept checking. Every time he returned, the bartender hadn't made them yet. Two hours later, a few of us got the hell out of there. Drinks STILL hadn't come. We didn't bother to cancel the order because the bartender onviously had no plans of making money from us.

We were here for an event. Now, I'm big on customer service especially when it comes to the bar, and KEISHA was rude all night . And not just to me but towards a number of people (I confirmed with others just to make sure I wasn't tripping). It's like she had a problem bar tending . Pause . No one told you to wake up this morning and say , " hmmm today I'm going to go bar tend and be rude af to everyone by rolling my eyes, giving hella attitude, and slamming down drinks when questions are asked". Like a sista can't even give you a tip. Keisha's attitude could have gotten her weave/wig pulled off, but it would have been overly inappropriate for a twenty something year old to go off on a 40 something year old bar tender right ? Keisha ... baby ... get a new job, because you don't like what you're doing... and your actions show it . KEISHA FIX YOUR ATTITUDE, YOU'RE RUDE

Good place to have a party. But I am confused on the drink prices. We went there the other night ordered the same drink from 2 different bartenders and the prices were different. I ordered and then he wanted the same so we ordered from a different bartender and just that fast the drink went up 3 dollars. They need to get that together

Ronnie B.

Yelp
Nothing has changed the food is still garbage the drinks are garbage and the service is garbage I hate this place but when my family decides to watch the game here I'll support them but I won't be back under any circumstances, to be honest I'm surprised they're still in business, and the owner is garbage

A fun place to party! Great entertainment. Great staff. The owners are super nice. Enjoyed every moment here. The bar is amazing, I always see different friends, and everybody just enjoys themselves here. I love the burger, because it comes with a juicy flavor, and it's really tender. You'll love this place.

Yelp
$26 for 2 drinks (and a half attitude from the Bartender) If ima pay $26 for 2 drinks I better have an ocean or rooftop view. Not a view of a bunch of stacked red couches and some picnic chairs. This is Bellflower, not Bel Air

Yelp
The service was extremely slow. They give you utensils according to what you ordered. For example, if you order gumbo or soup, you're only getting a spoon. Mind you it doesn't come with crackers or anything. My mom asked for crackers and the waitress said we don't have but I'll see if maybe there's some in the back somewhere. I ordered fried catfish. Disgusting!! They kept the black skin on the bottom. It was so rubbery and disgusting! It took a long long time for our food to come. You get 1 free refill but after that they charge you. Nothing was satisfying about this place. Been one time and one time only.

Jen O.

Yelp
This is the place to come if you enjoy Creole cooking! Definitely can tell some talented people are behind the kitchen creations. Also the woman who works the Bar on occasion is very polite and kind. Shout out to Adrian... I love you girl! If you are in the area or just looking for a place to grab a drink- very welcoming spot. Give it a try!

I wanted to book them for my mom's surprise party later tbut I left a bunch of messages and no one ever called me back. I even tried to call a few times and no one was ever able to help me. I guess they don't want my money or business. I ended up coming here to eat with a friend. Drinks were pretty good. The food was good. We ordered a bunch of apps. Sliders ( good!) chicken and sausage gumbo ( good!) Wings ( good) and fries ( we didn't get them lol) there were a bunch of events so our waitress wasn't the best but the music and atmosphere was good so I'd come back.

I wanted to try this place since the reviews were nice, and they had crawfish that I wanted to try, so we went here on a Thursday night. I looked online and they had happy hour until 8pm. We came around 6:30 and all the doors were wide open, maybe they were having problems with the AC? Anyway, we had to walk in and talk to the server since there was only one. From what I have read about the place, it's more of a bar at night than it is a restaurant. The place is huge, but there was only one table with people at 6:30 - leading me to believe that it is indeed more of a bar. Most people there were at the bar just drinking. They have TV's all over the place and at that time they were showing a movie on TV. The server sat us on a table and gave us menus shortly. We were also notified that a jazz band would be in at 7:30, which we were able to hear a bit. By the time the band was playing there was a decent crowd there. The AC started working shortly before the food arrived - which is good. They also started playing recorded music over the speakers. We ordered the crawfish, a chicken po-boy (off the happy hour menu) and a couple of well drinks (BOGO $10 during happy hour). The crawfish was incredible - I have never had crawfish that way. There was a decent amount of heat on the dish, and there were so many spices involved. All in all it was an excellent dish. The chicken po-boy reminded me of KFC chicken sandwiches from Asia - they had the shredded lettuce, the fried chicken, and pickles. It was good - but the crawfish takes the cake. The drinks they served were not bad - in fact quite strong so worth the price. A big issue I think was there was literally one server. As our dinner progressed, people started trickling in, the server seemed like she was having a hard time dealing with everyone. Maybe more help would have been nice. I also noticed that the servers, bartenders, and other employees seem to know the bar regulars and greeted them like family. This was a good change of pace compared to if you went to a chain like TGI Friday's or some of the same. I would definitely recommend the crawfish - I believe while it's the most expensive thing on the menu, it's also worth the price.

Understaff , horrible service . My husband and I came here for the first time and it's definitely our Last!! We got seated, than after 10 mins they came to ask if we have been helped than told me to "hold on" bc they need to go greet another table . Let me tell you, we didn't HOLD ON. We WALKED OUT! You're better off going to POPEYES

Background: This restaurant has a lot of potential. My aunt took me here for my birthday, she heard about this place from a friend of hers.. My aunt and her friend live in culver city, this place is in bellflower.. so the word of mouth is there. I'm 30, they're in their 50's. With that said, this venue caters to an older demographic... Facility: Cheap, dated decor. Large venue that doesn't flow.. the main entrance has seating, then there's a dj booth quartered off from the rest of the area in the back, which seems like it's the main area. It's next to the bar. Then there's another area, a back entrance. From the back parking lot it says sports lounge, nothing indicating that its the French quarter. There's manly decore, black leather chairs. Food/drinks: good is great! fried Chicken is flavorful... but the hot wings are dry, and not saucy. I like saucy flavorful juicy wings. The drinks SUCK ! We ordered a mai tai.. You could tell they did the little trick where they put the alcohol in the straw.. after the first sip. The drink tasted like water. We ordered a long beach and it was just sweet n sour mix, no coke, didn't even taste like it had alcohol. The server tasted it too.. she knew it wasn't made correctly. Kudos to her for doing that. Will I return, no. Not my scene. If you want good live music, oldies and .. an interesting crowd, sure. It's a hole in the wall but like I said, it could be great!

Celebrated our family Birthdays with Adrian and Ernest as our hostess and host, owners of French Quarter Creole Bar & Grill. It's hard to plan a party, but just call Adrian and she will help you set it up. The truth is they do this all the time. I just needed to set the date, number of guest and where you want them to reserve your tables. Easy! They did all the rest. As the evening progresses, you work with them to adjust your food and drink orders as needed. I preferred to give out drink tickets in the begining and ordered a couple of trays, then my friends took care of the rest as the evening went on. BTW... quality live music and DJ makes you feel as if you were throwing your own house party. :)

Update This place went downhill from when i first visited a few years ago i probably dined there maybe 5 times before....so new menu... terrible... their beans and rice not even the same very bland also ordered the shrimp po boy i phone ordered for pick up was disappointed ... last night i decided to go for drinks with my cousin who was visiting... the staff... i loved that like 3 people checked on me to make sure i was being assisted someone came to me and asked if was having a good time another server made sure to acknowledge me and sent my actual server a lady with bright red hair that was nice ordered a few drinks and food terrible chicken nachos where the chicken tasted canned and an order of chicken wings and fries ...i was meeting my cousin who'd never been before and i was concerned about her finding parking so i went outside to find her now when i arrived probably 30 - 40 mins prior there was no cover and i didn't see the "no re entry" sign i explained i was just in the building and my food and drinks were ordered the lady working the door was incredibly rude she looked at me and was like theres no reentry and she didn't remember me walking out and that why should believe i was in there ??? i understand rules and signs but the way she was so rudely dismissive really rubbed me the wrong way thank goodness the security guard remembered me and vouched for me so now i was waiting to pay my cousin's cover so that we could enjoy the food and drinks i ordered this woman literally scrolled on her cell phone and had us wait standing there until she was done like well eff us standing there we could wait until she finished viewing ig now this place is family owned and the way she acted she was probably an owner or something which makes her behavior all the more disappointing im going to describe her for identifying purposes only a light skinned lady with black curly hair working the door and a terrible disposition i spent about 120 in that place that night plus tip and to be treated that way was thee icing on the cake i will never return to this establishment and i hope they read this review because they really need to do way better smh.

I've been here before but the service is horrible. I took a hour to get our food. I had to remove my dirty dishes. And to top it off the drinks are extremely expensive. I won't be coming here anymore. Why can't black people do thing right. Oh my water had a fly in it. See the picture. We also had to ask for our food 3 times, keep in mine when we ordered there was only about 10 people in the restaurant it was 7:35pm when we ordered. It is now 8:38pm and still no food. 8:49pm still no food

$10 cover charge after 9. $13 shot of patron. $12 Hurricane (mostly ice) Order your expensive ass food(18$ bowl of gumbo) at the window or your bartender will be rude to tell you about it. Oh if your a female at the bar, prepare to wait a good 10-15 minutes before you get acknowledged. No bounce music, no zydeco, all pop and new generation rap. The only thing that saved the review is the two very nice gentleman I met on the patio smoking their medicine.

Food= 4.5 stars Flavorful with a little sass, the crawfish ètouffée ($20) was the right amount of spice with a good amount of crawfish in every bite. I added grilled shrimp ($4 more) which worked great with this dish. Ètouffée (eh-too-fey) means "to smother" in French. It's a rice dish "smothered" in a spicy tomato based shellfish gumbo-like stew. If you enjoy a good gumbo, you just might enjoy this dish. They don't serve jambalaya here, but that crawfish ètouffée more than makes up for that missing link. I definitely was not disappointed. The crab cakes were surprisingly "fluffy" and not dry. I'm used to dense and dry cakes which always made me stay away from crab cakes, but these "fluffy" and moist cakes were a nice surprise. You get two with your order ($16) along with lemon wedges and a mayo based dipping sauce. I was hoping for beignets, king cake, bread pudding with a whisky sauce and vanilla ice cream, or some other famous Creole/Cajun dessert, but no desserts. Hopefully, that's next on their menu! This place is still relatively new. There's a bar and a dine-in area. I was a little lost when I walked in because there was no sign saying to "wait to be seated" or "sit anywhere". There was only one waitress and one bar tender that I noticed. Both were very helpful and I didn't mind waiting for my turn since I knew they were fairly busy. There's also a mini dance floor. I'm not sure if this place turns into a club, but the music was on point! They played early 90s hip hop and R&B classics!

This establishment was a disappointment on so many levels. 1st the good: close to my home. Ok yelpers here it is in a nutshell... If your looking for an old school, after hour spot run by "Big Perm/Worm" from Friday's movie without Ice Cube (aka. Craig) you're found it...lol. 2nd: the bad...$30 to get in for my guests and myself...$20 for "the Étouffée" which we wiated over 1hr plus (while we watched these way to old to club, people dancing to very loud hip-hop). Subsequently, we still waited...for this finally delivered "cup of noodles" stew over, hard "& bearly cooked" rice dish of some sort (prepared within an: 10' x 10' looking prison cell--want to be kitchen)...ugh. Lastly, the ugly: as we were leaving. A,...40ish + woman (hobbling around) with a knee brace was arguing with the security guard about: "her words" not knowing how to do his job that she was better qualified...yikes. (In the voice of Day-Day: "Top Flight Security of the World...Craig") lol Never again yelpers.

First time here and I'll definitely be back! Very intimate, GREAT drinks, and good service. Felt like I was back in New Orleans. The bartender knows what she's doing! Great for date night, girls night out, or single bar run! The live band was very reminiscent of the real French Quarter scene. If you've never been to New Orleans, stop by French Quarter for a taste. The food has been "California-ized" - since we're so sensitive to good seasoning and spices but the food was flavorful, the ambiance was fun, the people were polite and energized, and the location is low-key.

I went to the French Quarter yesterday for my grandmother's birthday. She had heard great things about this restaurant and wanted to try it out. BIG MISTAKE! First off let me say our waitress or host Tessa was amazing! Very nice and patient with us. We told her we are from New Orleans so we know creole food We arrived at 3pm to a pretty empty spot. Tessa took our drink orders as we waited for everyone else. The menu is very simple and does not go into details as to what is on a sandwich or not. I don't blame Tessa for the slow service. She explained how they had only one cook. But our fried pickle appetizers came out so extra crispy! I asked her if she could have them done over because it was not tasty. No problem We ordered our food around 4 only because we were hungry and now had a chance to look over the menu. It was roughly around 5:30 when our food started coming out!! At this point we were like the only people there and it took that long for a poboy sandwich????? The icing on the cake was the sandwich had cheese on it which never was explained on the menu. Wtf who puts cheese on a poboy????? When we asked Tessa for a manager she brought out Adrian. Now Adrian could've been sympathetic to our concerns regarding the slow service from the cook, the food, and misconceptions of what comes on a sandwich etc. He tried to say it was the bread that was the issue but we explained no it wasn't, it was that you put cheese on a sandwich and no where does it mention that. Also he got an attitude with us when we explained the slow service and how many times the food came wrong. That we had been there for over 2 hours and still no food and it was empty! When I say 1 star that's only because of Tessa. This place should be ashamed of themselves calling this place a New Orleans bar and grill. The food we had was nasty and we will never come back

This place seems to be very interesting to so many people. But it was not a place for me. The food and drinks looked alright. But the spot itself needs some major revamping. Everything looks outdated and the stage looks like it was going to collapse at any minute. There is also a big paper tree on the back entrance, which reminded me of a kindergarten classroom. The manager or staff member who was running the entertainment on a Saturday was extremely rude to the performers and their accompanied guests. I would probably go else where when looking for something fun to do on a Saturday night.

We celebrated my friend's 50th birthday last night! Everything was perfect and did not disappoint. The service was quick despite our large group. The crawfish etoufee' was very good. Packed dance floor too! We had a great time! Thanks French Quarter, we'll be back!

Legit Cajun food. Had the catfish, gumbo and po boy. Tastes like home cooking! The gumbo has some good flavorful kick to it. And the catfish is fried to perfection.

I have been craving gumbo for a while, but was too lazy to cook it...when I found out that The French Quarter Bar and Grill sold authentic gumbo I was sold! That first taste practically melted in my mouth...portion size was just perfect. This restaurant deserves a definite repeat!
