Mardi Gras Tuesday "A Taste Of New Orleans" Sherman Oaks

Omg. The flavor! A friend and I stopped by for happy hour and we were sooo impressed. Every thing we tasted was delicious and seasoned soo well. Our favorites were the catfish bites, the gumbo cup, and the wingettes which come with seasoned fries. The manager was the sweetest! He was so welcoming and attentive. Our food and drinks were out quickly and we have absolutely zero complaints. We will definitely be back and encourage you all to visit.

We moved from Houston a couple of a years go and really missed Cajun food and boy did this place hit the spot! Amazing flavors! Mark the manager was so kind and hospitable and made sure we had an amazing time. His recommendations were perfect and even shared with us that two items we got on the menu were created by the staff themselves by mixing up things in the kitchen they liked - as I feel like all the best things are created! We got: -Jumbalaya Spring Rolls (revolutionary, life changing) -Taste of New Orleans Trio (Red Beans and Rice, Gumbo and Crawfish Etouffe) -Shrimp and Grits (wow) -Peach Cobbler Spring Rolls We also had the Sazzy cocktail and it was very sweet but delicious! Will be back again. 😍

Good place to experience. The service was a tad slow (I was on a lunch break meeting and had to get back to work), so I will know next time that I need to give 1.5 hours to eat lunch here. The shrimp po' boy was good. The crab cakes were excellent, and the peach cobbler is worth going back for!. The ambiance is really nice. This would be good to meet up with friends or even a date.

A Taste of New Orleans: Sweet Tea & Southern Redemption Ya’ll, let me tell you something. I have been **starving** in this town for four whole years. Four years! I’ve been out here in **Alhambra** cooking my own **soul food** because nothing in this California desert could touch what my grandmama made. I was starting to think I was going to have to move back South just for a proper **catfish** filet. Then, the angels sang and led me to **Mardi Gras Tuesday “A Taste of New Orleans”** in Sherman Oaks. And baby, that drive? Worth every single minute and every single drop of gas. This ain't just food; it's a **homecoming**. * **The Catfish:** Crispy. Seasoned. Flaky on the inside. It didn’t just meet my standards; it **superseded them**. It looked me dead in the eye and said, "Girl, I missed you." * **The Red Beans and Rice:** Oh, honey. Creamy, smoky, rich. It tasted like a Friday night when you know you ain't gotta set an alarm. * **The Gumbo:** That dark **roux** was singing to me. It had the authentic flavor—deep, complex, and spicy enough to make you feel something. It was giving full-blown, tear-in-my-eye nostalgia. The portions are generous, the vibe is right, and the sweet tea is perfectly sweet. I found out they have a **live band** on the **weekend** and I about fell out of my chair. I’m not just going to *go* back; I'm going to **reserve my time to be had.** I’m dressing up, putting on my finest, and rolling up there to catch a groove and eat like the Queen I am. LA, you finally delivered. You can keep your green juice; I’m sticking with the **gumbo**. Let's not forget to mention the bar! Chef's kiss!💋🤌🏼

I absolutely love coming to Mardi Gras Tuesday. It's a little drive from LA, but we'll worth it. The food is well seasoned and the char grilled oysters never disappoint. Also, the staff are friendly and welcoming. I would definitely recommend giving it a try.

Went with my partner. He ordered the Taste of New Orleans that is Red Beans and Rice, Gumbo, Jambalaya. I am not a big foodie so I just ordered chicken tenders and fries. My plate was very well seasoned. I tried my partners plate and all options are very good. Delicious. I will definitely get the taste of New Orleans for myself next time. The one negative I have is the service. Our server was no where to be found. We were waiting for about 10-15mins to order dessert but we were tired of waiting so we asked for the check to leave. Not sure what happened there. Overall good food, good vibes!

Todays visit : Despite venitia I believe being by herself she did a really good job. The oysters are really good. (Might be too much cheese for some people) .The quality of the cat fish bites is ok and evenly cooked. The rolls were not great the rice was hard and the flavor was chaotic. The pasta had a nice taste it but again too much cheese. Over all had the essence of new orleans but missing some of the style when it came to the foood. It felt like imitating new orleans. The bathroom needs to be tidy. There was a guy that was suppose to assist ourbserver but really wasn't doing much but on his phone while out server ran an entire resturant with drinks food delivering food orders taking orders ect. If you're curious I think its worth a try but Ill be back for the oysters only. Always support Black owned

Very nice restaurant ambiance and nice servers. Went in around 8pm Wednesday and got the gumbo, Mac n cheese, hush puppies, and catfish. The gumbo was well spiced but not spicy with good portions of each protein, and gave half a small crab. The chicken in the dish was not memorable. The plump gulf shrimp in it was delicious. The garlic bread was alright. The catfish was well seasoned. The rice was made decently. The mac n cheese was well seasoned and had a little cheese crust on top, and was delicious. The hush puppies were crispy and had a good horseradish sauce. Would return for the fast service and performances, and to try the beignets and explore the rest of the menu. Their appetizers were all good. Portions were hefty and the bill came out to $70 for 2 people.

We were intrigued by the name of this restaurant and decided to give it a try. We're not experts in New Orleans cuisine but we like really good food that is authentic and this is the place for it. The atmosphere is friendly and inviting and the food and service are top notch. We went to Sunday brunch and were immediately seated and attended to by the wait staff. The owner is hands on and made sure the diners were happy. The "bottom less Mimosas" are for real, with speedy refills. With live jazz softly in the background, we ordered the bread pudding French toast and the Shrimp Benedict. Both dishes were divine. The food here is not from the microwave. It's all prepared fresh..so you can relax and enjoy the experience. It's well worth it and we'll definitely be back. Thank you!

We met one of the owners elsewhere, a super nice guy. So we came to check out the restaurant and were surprised by what a cool place it is. It's beautiful inside with great decor. And I have to mention, three bathrooms, no waiting. The owner suggested the Mardi Gras Pasta. OMG, that was incredibly delicious. We also had a beer and the Swamp Tea. Couldn't have has a better meal - but that's only the first time we were there, so more to try!

Sadly this place was not it, when we went this past weekend. Upon entering we were greeted by someone who looked around with a vacant expression led us over to a table and plopped our menus down on the table without saying a word and walked away. Rude. He came back later to take our order, didn't write it down, and then 20 minutes later another guy came by to take our order again, so clearly the first guy didn't submit our order the first time? Then about another 20 minutes later the second guy came by to tell us our order was coming soon but then he recited the wrong order y'all need to start writing down people's orders! Flash forward 45 minuets later as we are waiting for just two orders or red beans and rice. By this point I was hangry and I had to ask several times for water just to be refilled, only for it to be forgotten about multiple times. When the food finally did come, it wasn't good or flavorful. The rice was stale, the beans were unflavored and not even that hot, and the sausage was charred, but again had no real flavor. To be honest you can find better cajun flavor in boxed mix from the grocery store! My husband and I were recently in New Orleans, and we were looking for a place we could get some good cajun style food to remember our fun times in NOLA, and seeing the good reviews we were so excited to go. But sadly had a horrible experience and the food is not good or flavorful. (after waiting so long for it too!) The female servers seemed to be attentive and kind though, so recommend if you go, try to sit in their area, and avoid the two male servers who didn't really probably even know what day it was.

Okay, I should have posted an honest review of this place a lot sooner. I've been here multiple times now and even invited and treated family and friends. This has become one of my favorite "hole in the wall" go to places to eat. I'm here now for the Sunday Brunch and all I can say is that IT IS NECESSARY FOR YOU TO TRY IT! I've been spoiled with the $10 bottomless Mimosas and the Waffles and Catfish Bites. These Waffles literally melt in your mouth with the warm butter and syrup. I gotta get this recipe!! The fish is lightly battered and has an amazing flavor with not being over seasoned. They got it right! Anyway, I think you see my point. Moving on... If you're a pasta lover, I really highly recommend the Mardi Gras Pasta. I'm not gonna give too much detail on this other than saying it's in my top 3 of favorite foods things to get. I want you to be surprised (It's AMAZING). I don't want to make this a too long of a review, but I can't stress enough how good the food is. The crawfish and shrimp are so good as well, but I suggest you ask for an extra side of rice when you order. The portions here are decent for the current price, but I suggest you get here quick before the economy changes. You know what I'm talking about. That's the upside, the only downside here is that the food takes awhile to arrive. Usually a 15-20 minute wait on average. Remember it's a "Hole in the Wall" spot and the kitchen is not that big so I want you to go in knowing that. Be patient. It's worth it. They also have a saxophone player playing soft jazz in the background or a great selection of New Orleans music that transports you to the bayou country. If you come in for Sunday brunch I also recommend you make a reservation. It gets crowded fast! Any other time during the week it's not necessary as far as I can tell. My food just got here so I gotta go. Anyway, I hope this helped you and I hope you enjoy this place just as much as I do. Enjoy, I'll see you back here soon.

If you an amazing meal and service, come here! I went twice in a week, but times were chefs kiss Food: Shrimp po'boy: they add sooooo much shrimp and it's delicious Gumbo: dreaming of that sauce still Brunch: friend chicken is worth the wait! Service: Everyone is so kind and will offer the best suggestions. My mom still talk about the special rice they whipped up for her Will be back!

I thoroughly enjoyed the food. It was a bit salty though and I enjoy my food on the salty side so keep that in mind if you don't like your food too salty. I think it's a bit expensive compared to other restos with similar cuisine and serving amount, so while it was a nice place to check out, I'm not sure if it would be a go-to place.

What an amazing place! Great food. Great atmosphere. Great service. So much fun! Will definitely be back!

I 10000% recommend the business and I'm going back every single chance I get. My friends and I planned to try this establishment out because who doesn't like to try new places and baby it's creole food ?? The food was AMAZING. There's live music, jazz to be exact ! & the bottomless mimosas were flowing. We tried everything from, fried catfish, crab cakes, jambalaya, red beans and rice, shrimp étouffée, Mac and cheese , loaded hash, southern potato's , grilled oysters , wings, shrimp and grits and gumbo. Our servers were very friendly and welcoming.

We went there on Fat Tuesday. The food was ok I ordered the gumbo which is a usual ok when I want a taste of home. It had an odd flavor and after a couple of bites I was done. The fried cat fish and fried shrimp were good. The service was ok they need a bit more training as when they bought out our food they forgot to bring the coleslaw, we ordered regular fries they bought out Cajun. The ambiance just was not there and that maybe due to the time of day we went 2:30 they did have a guy on the horns he played well. I guess in comparison to Stevie's and Harold and Bells it's just not there maybe with more training and attention to detail oh yeah the bartender sneezed in his shirt and did not sanitize his hands before making another drink.

Amazing restaurant! We were treated well & the food was amazing!! We love seafood & this was our first time trying this restaurant out! Amazing Vibe ! We fell in love with this place & we will be returning! I will definitely recommend it to my friends & Family, we missed the live Jazz performance but will definitely return for that experience! THANK YOU

Everything here...tasty and flavorful! I ordered a trio - very good! Gumbo, jambalaya and the beans and rice. Perfect! Sometimes, Cajun restaurants don't meet the standard of flavor but this place gets it. I also love the butter toast they provide. Not totally healthy but it's definitely good ole' comfort food! I've returned for the gumbo alone as well and it was great and met my craving desires. The service is cool, not terrible and not impeccable! The ambiance gives comfortable and cool vibes. You can definitely stop here for lunch or dinner, or a super lowkey date.

I had the catfish and my wife had the sampler plate. A great time was had by all. Our server Tim was great and the smooth sounds of Aalon in the background to set the mood. We will be back soon.

Mardi Gras Tuesday has some solid soul food. My go-to is the fried catfish. I ask for it to be extra crispy. I also enjoy the hush puppies with the remoulade sauce and the mac and cheese is fire . The cajun fries are solid. I tried the Jambalaya once and I enjoyed it. I would order it again. The fried chicken is excellent. I believe they sell it as a half bird (4 pieces) a la carte. Service is great. Never had an issue. The ambiance inside is fun, energetic and festive! A homage to New Orleans with the decor and paintings. Parking can be tricky on Ventura blvd.

10/10 for this restaurant! I recently tried Sherman Oaks with a friend for brunch since we were in the area. When I tell you this is one of the best restaurants in LA, please listen! My friend and I came here on a last minute Sunday brunch. When we walked in, we were engulfed in the lively vibe of the restaurant as well as the beautiful live jazz music that was playing. We didn't get to make a reservation but we had no issue getting a seat which was amazing since we were by the jazz player. Before I talk about the food, I think it's important to note how wonderful and kind all of the staffers were. The host who say our table definitely set the vibe to the restaurant with his joyful demeanor and our waitress was super kind and helpful. For food, I ordered the shrimp and grits with the sausage in it (out of the amazing recommendation from the waitress) and my friend ordered the oyster po boy. Both dishes were delicious and I literally have no complaints. For dessert, we ordered the beignets which were fresh and delicious! The food did take a little while to come out but I knew it was due to the restaurant cooking the food from scratch since it tasted so fresh. We had no issue waiting. We didn't partake but on the weekends, they have bottomless mimosas for 10 dollars! It literally can not be beat! I will definitely be back to try more dishes!

I absolutely loved the food at Mardi Gras Tuesday! It's a little bit of NOLA in LA. The service is great! Food phenomenal and good vibes. The drinks are next level with a full bar. This place deserves 5 Stars! It's a on a Main Street with meter parking. Great place for the family or date night. I'll definitely be back!!

I recommend getting the Jambalaya here. Out of all the dishes we got, that was my favorite. The combo platter was good and a big portion. Greasy, but it's expected since it's deep fried. (The hush puppies it comes with is so good!) In my opinion the mac n cheese was a little too saucy/wet for me. The food took a little while longer to come out but we came in during the shift change. The vibe is lively and inviting. The details and paintings on the wall really put it all together. We were greeted and seated right away. I heard they get booked up for reservations so we got in just in time and was able to walk in. Service was good, the owner was there and was attentive to all the tables. The servers were also friendly even with the busyness.

I grew up Los in Angeles, and when back in the area, I ask family and friends for recommendations. Mardi Gras Tuesdays an awesome place to enjoy appetizers, drinks, dinner and dessert. Parking: street parking. We were able to get a parking spot directly in front. Food was incredible! Dinner: Hush puppies with dipping sauce (Awesome) Bites Po Boy with overflow of shrimp (Awesome) Trio of tasting (we picked 3): E'toffee, Red Beans-Rice-Chicken Sausage and Jambalaya. Dessert: Peach Cobbler Egg Rolls with side of Vanilla Ice Cream There are plenty of tables in main room (small and large tables) chairs at the bar with large TV Screen and tables in back for parties. Server was delightful and answered all our questions about the dishes. The bill was pretty pricey. Our party ordered a variety of dishes and shared the food. I will return next time I'm visiting family in addition to checking their website for happy hour and brunch times. Cheers!

The weight staff was excellent. The food was really good. The cheesecake beignet was a hit. The ambience is amazing and the music was excellent so many parties going on I will always go back. The owner is gracious and the food is excellent. I give it a 10.

As a native Louisianian, I'm reluctant to try "authentic" Louisiana spots, but this place did not disappoint! We came soon after opening, so there was plenty of seating! Our server was extremely friendly and helpful! The ambiance is pretty casual and social, so it's great for catching up with friends/coworkers. My friend and I ordered the Char Grilled Oysters, Crawfish Etouffee, and a catfish plate with gumbo and potato salad. WHEW! It was all so delicious, and everything was brought out in a timely manner! The gumbo was the only thing that felt a bit interesting, but everything else was the bomb! I'll definitely be returning!

We dined here last night, and the food was absolutely amazing. Our waitress was very kind and friendly as well. The food does take a while because it is made fresh, so be a little patient with that. You can tell by the taste that it's not sitting out under a lamp. Will absolutely be back. Would recommend the peach cobbler dessert.

I rarely come to a restaurant and forget to take pictures..... and I clearly forgot it on my recent first-time Mardi Gras Tuesday. But with good reason. I was STARVING, and the food was SO GOOD, I.... just..... blanked. By the time I knew what was happening, all the dishes were done, and I didn't think taking pics of bones and rice bits would do the restaurant any favors. First.... that Gumbo bowl. It was like sex on the first date, and you haven't even gotten out of the car yet. THAT good. Generous bits of andouille sausage, shrimp, crab, and chicken.... it was a foursome in a bowl. This should be your first dish. I don't care if you just came in for dessert. THIS is your first dish when you set foot in this restaurant! I wasn't sure if I'd like the catfish nuggets, but you know what? They were the extra happy ending on top of the orgy started by the Gumbo. Crispy, tasty, and a generous portion, so a very high-value meal. We also had the red beans, rice, and chicken sausage. My friend ordered this, and I wasn't sure if it was going to be all that. Glad to say I was surprised at just how much fun it was. The grilled sausage made it the perfect comfort dish to round out our meal. If the Roman Empire and all its orgies were a restaurant, it would be Mardi Gras Tuesday. I will be back MANY more times!

This restaurant is on a very busy strip. There is parking on the street, but will require a little patience. We had reservations for five people and we were seated immediately. The place is small, so it gets packed. The floors were super slippery and sticky (they needed a good cleaning). It took awhile before the waiter came and took our order. He was kind, but super busy due to them being short staffed. We ordered fried catfish, fried chicken with greens, gumbo and some cocktails. We waited a long time for our food to come out because it is cooked to order. Right before it came out, the employees had to open the doors because the restaurant was smoky due to something that was burning in the kitchen. The food was average and the cocktails could have been better. Maybe I should have gotten the mimosas.

OMG....I am sooooo disappointed. My starting point is Palmdale and my destination is Sherman Oaks BMW dealership for my new tires. Last week I brought my car down for regular maintenance and I decided to walk to Ventura Boulevard in hopes to find a Thai restaurant and J ran across Mardi Gras Tuesday. I was sooo excited..,I went on yelp for the hours so I could return on MLK day. It's about a 30min walk. I got to the restaurant at about 11am. On Yelp opening was noon...?! Well when I got to the restaurant the open light was laminated and the door was unlock which to any reasonable person you would think they were open....so I entered and there was no in the dining area but I could hear voices. So I called out and there was no answer and there was a tall light completed brother with the worse attitude I've ever encountered in meyeeee life. I spoke and ask him if they were open... OMG he was terrible. So I left and came back. The service was horrible and I was helped by the assistant manager. The food made my eyes water and my knees swell. Way toooo much salt. Umm I'm over this place. They need a chef not a cook.

Had no real wait time and the gentleman Keith waited on us was a great time. Made you feel like you have known him for years. Food was out of this world. Great staff! Excellent ambiance! The food is something special!

We love the jazzy wings The Best. The platter was ok. The fries not for me it tasted weird. Went in a mid-week it wasn't crowded. Nice spot we came on our way back to Bakersfield. If we are in the area I will stop by again for the wings and probably get some oysters

We loved this place ! Delicious food great service ! Bottomless mimosa I believe 10-2 for only 10$ - Keith provided excellent service thank you see you soon !

I would go back for appetizers/small plates as well as the cocktails. I loved the shrimp appetizer and the jambalaya egg rolls were also good, but they definitely need the sauce they're served with. Staff very friendly and the vibe is chill. It gets busy for sure so I encourage reservations. I didn't have one but I lucked out and went right before the crowd came in.

Good Creole food has eluded me in the Los Angeles area- until now! Literally just stopped in on a whim and had THE BEST, SPICIEST HUSH PUPPIES EVER. Service was great and the decor is fun. Going back next week.

GREAT service!!! But absolutely awful food. We ordered the grilled oysters, yikes, so fishy and greasy. The Cajun pasta was heavy handed on crawfish but almost no andouille sausage, but also overcooked and no flavor. The Cajun fries just tested like someone doused a heavy hand of Cajun seasoning, but no actual salt, so very unpleasant. The hush puppies and remoulade were not bad. The blackened catfish and shrimp were the two most decent items, but served over instant rice... such a shame. Fresh rice is so EASY to make.

Im drunk off mimosas and I haven't even eaten but the way my cup has not met the bottom, this place are about it, everyone is sweet!!

Cleanliness could be MUCH better..didn't have all the items on the menu to order, server got more than one thing wrong and the food was meh. Seems like they're really not trying at all

originally, we found this place on TikTok. Upon entry, we were immediately greeted by Keith. He was very kind and full of life. Rickey was amazing and attentive everything we needed he was on top of it. He was also on top of the bar. He consistently checked on all the tables. He made sure we had refills for bottomless he was really holding things down on his end after that, we have the opportunity to meet the chef nia because we were completely taken away by how delicious every single dish was that we and she expressed so much gratitude. last but definitely not least MS LESLIE ! Her customer service was absolutely amazing in addition to her being a great support system for Ricky and ensuring we had all we needed Overall, for customer service 10/10 Overall for food 10/10 Will I be back? Absolutely!

Our server was superb, attentive to detail, knew the menu very well and made some solid suggestions. The owner will stop by each table to make sure you are enjoying your dining experience. When the leader cares, the staff cares. Great job. Our food was flavorful and we were doing the happy dance as we tasted everything we ordered. The fried red snapper was fantastic. The ambience will transcend you back to New Orleans with all of the decoration and help from the band on Fridays. The jazz band is a nice touch and was totally unexpected. Keep up the great work #MadriGrasTuesday

Loved this place!! The food came out fresh, the ambience was chill, place was clean, and the service was great. We got 3 meals and a side to share. We wanted to try a couple things. We got the catfish basket, shrimp basket, red beans rice with chicken suasage, and side of the Mac n cheese. The batter they use to fry the seafood is delicious. Super crispy not soggy at all, full of flavor, and super fresh. I also loved the shrimp and the corn bread (super tasty). The only thing I wouldn't order again is the red beans and rice place. The beans really didn't have any flavor. Thanks for the great experience:)

I really like this spot, if it was closer to where I live, I would probably eat here more. I really love Cajun food and lthis place gets it right. Perfect spot for a weekend meal. Those voodoo wings were addicting. The bartender was also our server she made really good drinks. Nice ambiance, you definitely feel like you're in New Orleans

Omg, this place is amazing. Can't believe it took me four years to learn about this place... it's my first time, but won't be my last. I had the catfish po boy, which was outstanding and overflowing with some of the best catfish I've ever tasted. My boyfriend asked for a veggie po boy and it was so delicious, I was almost jealous of his meal-- they did some magic to those vegetables. There was live music during Sunday brunch. Can't wait to go back for the live jazz band on Fridays. Service was excellent and pretty fast. Ambience was great and the decor made you feel like you were in New Orleans. Cannot wait to come back and try more on the menu... but I'll probably just have the po boy again, how can I resist?

I'll keep this to the point: -Grilled Oyster Appetizer, burnt hard to even see any oysters on the shell in my photo -Trio entree: no complaints, very delicious -Bread Pudding Dessert was served cold, I prefer this dessert warmed up, overall still good I doubt I'll return after experience I had with waitress.

Used to work in the Sherman oaks area and always wondered when this restaurant would open. Drove by today and realized it was finally open and decided to eat here for my boyfriends 25th birthday They have a nice seating set up outside with heaters to keep you extra warm which really came through. Food was great quality as well. Defigoung to stop by again

First time ever coming here and let me tell you something. The server was supper friendly. Her energy definitely was welcoming. We tried the calamari recommended by the owner and let me tell you we order more because they were that good! The mimosas where absolutely on point, they saw we were almost done instantly came back and refill our drinks. The waitress suggested to try the pineapple and it was really good! Would definitely come here again and try the rest of their entrees. Hidden gem!

I love creole and cajun and southern food. There aren't many creole nor Louisiana style restaurants in Los Angeles. I was so excited that I finally found Mardi Gras Tuesday. I dined on Sunday and it was pretty busy with large parties of diners gathering for brunch , lunch. There was a saxophone player who played some really cool jazz . The menu prices are reasonable and the portions generous . I ordered Fish on the Bayou (rice , red snapper , shrimp with a crawfish sauce (gravy). It was delicious, I took off one star because I asked for my fish/shrimp to be blackened not fried . When my meal was served my plate the snapper/shrimp was fried. I didn't want to complain as it was very busy nor wait for a replacement . I didn't visibly notice as soon as my plate was served because the gravy covered most of the plate . I ordered a side of mac and cheese it was descent and ok. For dessert I ordered the cheesecake beignets, delicious! I will definitely return again and would like to try out other items on the menu. Service was good , the ambiance has the bourbon street vibe /decor. If you plan on dining with a large group, I would suggest reservations. If it's for two you can walk in . There is seating indoors and outdoors.

Party of 2.... The place was not packed (no reservations needed). The staff was warm and welcoming and the bartender was very nice. I did not care for the first drink (they ran out of one of the ingredients so he substituted it for something else). He had no problem making a new drink for me (strawberry margarita which was delicious). I ordered the red snapper basket which was ok..... but I highly recommend the etouffee. The first time I dined here, I ordered the crawfish etouffee and it was full of flavor. I wish I would have ordered it again..... but I wanted to try something different. This place is located in Sherman Oaks ok Ventura so street parking can be a bit of a pain. There is a small public parking spot a block up which is also an option as well. I look forward to dinning here again, but I think I will stick with the etouffee. ;)

I absolutely love this restaurant! I am a foodie from Louisiana & this spot gives me my fix for great southern cuisine! Brunch is also a winner at this location. The bottomless mimosas for $10 is insane! I love the service & staff. They are so kind and accommodating. On the weekends they also have an amazing saxophone player that really bring a fun southern ambience with the jazz music. People actually get up to dance. Overall I highly recommend this restaurant! Go check it out for yourself!

First time here!!! Hospitality 10/10 The owner, Keith & his wife were so friendly & attentive Lonnie, our waiter, the sweetest.. food 10/10 Service 10/10 Food 10/10 We all felt at home

Haven't been to New Orleans since I was a kid. This brought me back. Service was a little slow and the food was a little pricey ($22 for half fried chicken).....but the quality was very good. $100 for gumbo, crawfish ettouffe, and half fried chicken...everything including tip (they also charge around 4% if you use your card). I would come back again. It's that good.

Keith is so sweet! Ambience is great and everybody is super friendly and attentive! Lots of yummy options on the menu. Def a new spot for me :) I got new orleans hash!! Friend got pop fire shrimp, sauce was yummy! Chicken tenders were also yummy, good flavor. Also, if you're looking for mimosas, this is the spot!

Sometimes you need what you need. For me that is catfish or oysters, or shrimp, or a roe sly place for dinner. Marci Agra's Tuesday just feels right and the food is always delicious. Plus I love their music.

The appetizer was delicious the seasoning was so good. I got the catfish nuggets, crap cakes, char grill oysters was on point they were as good as the ones in New Orleans if not better. For dinner I order the Catfish Orleans the fish was cooked to perfection the black eye peas were to salty but the owner explained that the cooked had not stir in the seasoning and he gave me some more, my sisters and brother order the trio, they said it was good the etouffee was delicious. Will I go back most certainly the ambiance was nice and the music was good old jazz which was great they even had a musician come in & play some live music really nice place for a date. Enjoy your visit when you go!!'

I have been here a couple of times. Loved the food, the music and the owner and the service is fantastic. One of my go to places for great food.

Everytime I come, the food is great, the service is great, the owner is always in the front of house.
