Mr. Ed's Seafood & Oyster House, St Charles

This place was so good I went here twice in 2 days. Highly recommend coming here during happy hour. They have great drink, raw and charbroiled oyster specials. The charbroiled oysters are a must! You can see them being repaired right when you enter. The etouffe, crab cafe pasta and jambalaya are also great options. The ambience here is perfect for small to large parties. If you want to a catch a game they have high tables at the bars as well. The staff here are so attentive. We were greeted within seconds and the team overall work really well here. Food comes out quickly, dirty plates cleared and drinks are constantly being refilled. This location has plenty of street parking and closer to a residential neighborhood.

Best and biggest oysters so far. Bread pudding is bomb. Servers are nice, bathrooms are clean. Nice looking interior. Friends love their food as well. They went to the same restaurant but in a different location 2 days ago, raved non-stop about the food so we decided that I needed to come along this time. It's just their excuse to dine at this restaurant again. Street parking was plenty.

The food was amazing! We had the nachos, which was so much that we could have just eaten that. We didn't get a chance to order an entree, but when we go again, we will skip getting an appetizer and go straight to entree. The service was good too, our waiter was promt & made sure we were good.

Went to get dinner here before heading to The Rabbit Hole for a show. That was a great idea! I tried the charbroiled oysters, only my second time trying them in New Orleans. They were sumptuous and delicious and I enjoyed them very much! My partner and I each ordered a different seafood meal – I got the red fish, and he got the catfish, and they were both flaky and tender and yummy. His potatoes were incredible and I loved the catfish étouffée atop my redfish. We were also pleasantly surprised by a six dollar drink of the day deal, which was very yummy. The service was wonderful and kind, the atmosphere was comfortable, clean, and welcoming, and we had a wonderful experience.

Crawfish Beignet (must have). 1/2 and 1/2 oysters (delicious - I would've gotten raw but hubs is not a fan sigh). Fried Fish Dinner (that was some amazing fish!). Taste of New Orleans (delicious). Corn grits (quite yummy). Bloody Mary (loved the pickled green beans!). It was a lot of food for only 2 adults and a toddler but we made quite a meal with the leftovers for breakfast, lunch and our flight back home! Jambalaya, sausage, beans, gumbo fried rice anyone? Yum! The staff was great, no complaints there. Kid friendly which was a big plus.

We had Valentine's Day early dinner here. The service from being seated to the end was excellent! Our waitress Nyla is the BEST! Very attentive, warm and pleasant! The food was 5 🌟! The oysters on the halfshell were fresh and delicious! The charred oysters was full of flavor and charred to perfection! We had the artichoke dip which was yummy! That was just appetizers! LOL For dinner, I had the Pasta Orleans and it was so flavorful! My Godparents had the Cabbage and pork chops and fried oysters on a buttered bun(latter not on menu but made to order). They both raved about how delicious and perfectly cooked their food was. Later as they got busy, they never let up on the same level of excellent service as earlier with a light crowd. Your visit here will NOT disappoint! $$

Mr Ed's is the place !! For your oyster eats !! Its the small details that makes it stand out. The variety of styles of oysters. The plating and details like fresh french bread toast points. Lots of seafood dishes & daily specials. Some land lubber favorites. Our waiter Caitlyn was fantastic !! A small point to note. They automatically add on a 20 % tip and a surcharge if you use a credit card. All worth it in my opinion.

We walked by several times before deciding to stop in on our last night here. We were seated quickly, but that was the only quick thing. It was about 15 minutes before our server finally came to get our drink order. By then, we were ready to order. The server took our order. We ordered the Fried Green Tomato Stack as an appetizer. My husband ordered the Southern Fried meal, I got the breaded porkchop special, and my mom got the grilled pork chop special. The server told us it was a 25 minute wait for the Fried chicken. We told her that was fine. The tomatoes came out and they were great, although you only get 4 tomatoes and 2 small pieces of shrimp. We waited over 40 minutes for the rest of our food. My husband's food was completely wrong. He was supposed the get fried chi ken, catfish, shrimp, and jambalaya. We didn't get half the items included in the meal, just a plate with Fried chicken. The server said "well, I can ring in a side of jambalaya"....that was already supposed to be with the meal! He waited over 20 minutes for the right meal. When the jambalaya finally came out, the bowl burned his finger. He went to put it in the box to take home (since everyone else was already done) and the entire bottom of the jambalaya was burnt and rock hard. The server brought the check and said the manager would not comp any part of the meal. When my husband asked to speak to the manager, the server flatout said "no". My husband said "what...why?" She replied "I don't want to deal with that".... she reluctantly went to get him. We explained what happened, and he did offer to comp $20 off a $100 meal. We thought this was where it would end....nope. The sever never came back to the table so we could pay. My husband gave his bank card and the check to the manager. We sat there for 20 minutes...and no one returned with his card. He went to the front to figure out what was going on, and was told no one could find his card! They finally found the card after a few minutes, we paid our bill and left. By far some of the WORST service we have ever had. Definitely a disappointing end to our stay in NOLA.

Since my last review I've been back to Mr.Ed's a couple more times. My view has completely changed. I'm thinking when I had the roast beef po- boy they must've had a different cook. But since I've been back, I've had the stuffed peppers& I gotta tell you everything was delicious. Mac & cheese... so good! But the best thing I've had since the bell peppers was the shrimp po- boy. It was weeks ago that I had it & I'm STILL thinking about it. I nearly inhaled it... lots of shrimp fried perfectly!! So I'm going back Friday & ordering the same thing& can't wait. I'm drooling just thinking about it- that's how good it was . Don't forget to tip your server!!!!

The moral of this review story is that there were high highs and low lows when it came to the food which was unexpected (& made me sad bc I just knew this was going to be a home run). The highs = the mouthwatering crawfish beignets & delectable crawfish bread appetizers The lows = the stuffed peppers and baked macaroni special of the day and the overcooked and under seasoned Cajun pasta Service also had highs and lows. The server's friendliness and patience were highs but the speed of service (when it wasn't busy) was a low. All in all probably wouldn't revisit this location.

As delicious as Mr Ed's food is I won't be coming back to this location 1) we stood at the door for 20 minutes without being acknowledged. 2) why are ALL the black people cooking and busting tables and nothing but white people are in the "front" of the house. However, Travon made it a much better experience with his kindness and pleasant demeanor despite my being upset. Way to go Travon!! Thanks for turning it around.

This place was so good I went here twice in 2 days. Highly recommend coming here during happy hour. They have great drink, raw and charbroiled oyster specials. The charbroiled oysters are a must! You can see them being repaired right when you enter. The etouffe, crab cafe pasta and jambalaya are also great options. The ambience here is perfect for small to large parties.

I was at Barrel Proof a few blocks away looking for dinner. I was on day 4 of walking a thousand miles a day so I wanted something in close proximity. Hopped on trust Yelp, typed in gumbo and Mr. Ed's came up. I know there's a location in the CBD/French Quarter and I might even have it bookmarked but I've not tried that location yet and I didn't know about this location at all; pleasant surprise. When I walked in I was greeted with the smell of charbroiled oysters and I knew immediately I would order them. I ordered the traditional ones that are garlic butter and parmesan, but the crawfish rockefeller also sounded really appealing. I also ordered the fried green tomato stack and the crawfish etoufee. The oysters were just as good as they smelled! Deliciously buttery and not too much cheese (I'm of the mind that cheese and seafood go together very sparingly). The tomatoes were over-breaded but the batter was so good it didn't actually take away from the dish at all. the remoulade was perfect and honestly I could have eaten the tomatoes without the shrimp. OH BUT THE SHRIMP! Expertly cooked and coated in the most finger-licking blackening seasoning I've tasted in idk how long! I was so pleased with my "appetizers" I order the etoufee. Genuinely wish I hadn't. The consistency was that of etoufee (a roux base) but the taste was too tomato-y and acidic because of it; tasted more like creole (which I make often because there's no need for a roux). To top it off there were only 5 crawfish on the whole. For price, you're gonna wanna skip it. Overall would definitely return! Nice final meal of my trip.

This is another restaurant I bring anyone that is visiting to that wants a taste of Creole/Cajun/New Orleans cuisines. Mr. Ed's has everything all in one place, but their oyster bar is the focus. Their char boiled oysters are always, really flavorful and big, some restaurants will give you small tiny oysters, which don't really do the trick. You get your moneys worth here and even if you bring someone who doesn't eat seafood like I did, they will still find something on the menu that they would like. Definitely recommend - and in particular recommend this location because it's away from the long lines that the other locations may have.

Mr. Ed's does one of the best oysters in town! I feel like this place might be underrated compared to others. We came here as recommended by a local & it did not disappoint. I love the different options for oysters. The chargrilled oysters is probly going to be an all time favorite of mine! We also tried the crawfish bread. It was delicious, cheesy, & it had a generous amount of crawfish!

Mann what can I say. I love this place. This is my last night and third meal here over my week long stay in New Orleans. Hands down the best chargrilled oysters ever. Opportunity met chance for my restaurant is connected to my hotel, the Maison St Charles and they offered a free wine or dessert card with your meal. Say less. AND today I can take advantage of happy hour. Everything in here is good. The fried fish, chicken, étouffée, and gumbo are fire. I'm leaving tomorrow, but I will certainly will be back to the city and when I do, I'm definitely coming here. Shout out to both of the wonderful chefs. I hate that I can't remember their names. One was a younger fella. It was his birthday on Monday so he was out for the next couple of days, but all the gentlemen are just as good.

I don't know how they've gotten freaking reviews.the food: gunbo was watery and had almost no protein. Ordered the bowl of creole gumbo shrimp crab chicken and sausage and there was almost none of any. Fried platter tasted like they put everything in the fryer at the same time. Shrimp was dried out and chicken was "rare". The crayfish beignets were dense and doughy. Overall my worst meal in NOLA which is sad because it my last night here.

Went here the first day we arrived to have a few oysters and a hurricane. The oysters had amazing flavor and were huge. We had raw and chargrilled bay oysters, we were not disappointed. The chargrilled were covered in a garlic parmesan sauce and the huge piece of Italian bread to soak up all the sauce was so good.

Came here with a group of people. One specifically wanted oysters and this place was close and open. Upon arriving I was not feeling very sold on this location - gives off a restaurant chain with average food. Was I wrong! There was plenty of indoor seating and our server was extremely nice and attentive. Friend got the mushroom stuffed oysters and was very not impressed However I decided to go for the Taste of New Orleans and was very happy with the choice! First time being in this City so figured I should try a little of everything and it was all delicious! Great portion size for a good price. Everything tasted great especially the Jambalaya . We did order the jalapeno alligator bites - PASS it tasted nothing like alligator that I have had in the past and just tasted very bland ground up meat.

My Daughter and I were in NOLA for 9 days in Jan 2024, and since Mr Ed's was but 6 blocks from our resort, we went for the raw oysters on the half! Delicious, and a very helpful woman with blue/green eyes was so kind and attentive! WE ended up coming back, 4-5 MORE TIMES! We had a little bit of everything over the week+ time!! And the same lady served us nearly every meal! Fried chicken ***** Oysters ***** Fried Tomatoes ***** It was ALL Excellent!! (I'm elder, my daughter is tall. All I'm sayin' is, that waitress that took care of us, leaned down and kissed the top of my head the last sit down we had there, and it touched my HEART! ) What a kind gesture, and everything was incredible! (6 months ago now, and it still makes me smile!! I wish I knew her name!)

Fire in the Window. My novella about Mr. Ed's. Two lovers, hand in hand, walked by the window, headed for the door. They glanced and zeroed in on what's going on behind the glass. That inward glance between reflections of the city street saw brilliant orange flames dancing high. This picture window view, they were witness to a chef artfully grilling oysters. Somehow, they knew. Tonight was going to be memorable. Those two lovers? Yours truly, this one who writes. And my Fav Fab One. Holding the door for my fair lady, we escaped from the summer heat. In the cool, aromatic air within, there, standing before us, a beautiful smile with a matching personality. And, a très chic name. Paris. Paris, in NOLA. Mais oui. We took a short walk. Just Paris and us. We were seated. Gets my vote for Best Seats in the House. Wonderful view just feet away. Walkers. Riders. Cars and Streetcars. All-around great views. To the other side of the front door, stood that chef provoking those tall flames. Name's Leonard. Paris called him over. Paris had seen me taking pictures through the window. Of Leonard. And flames. Grilling oysters. I showed them my pics. We all laughed! I loved them! Our eyes were directed upward, led by the voice of Rochelle L. She was to be our chaperon and guide through all things Mr. Ed's. We stuck with the stack to start. That'd be the Friend Green Tomato Stack. A knife and fork fantasy of the fried variety. Slices of crispy juiciness. A nip of shrimp. All painted with an artful remoulade. Since tomatoes are actually fruit, and this dish is love, I'll call it a Passion Fruit Favor. Fab One did not linger, her finger directing to the Raw Oyster box on the menu. One half dozen, please, Rochelle. Thank You! As I'm finishing off those fried green goodies, I take delight in observing her oyster handling techniques. This ain't her first Oystero. (Rhymes with rodeo, sort of? Doesn't it?) It was time for Rochelle to bring out a bona fide platter of plenty. A trio of fried favorites, the Southern Fried Platter. With this I got a chicken breast, catfish and some shrimp. Wearing a crispy coat of crunchy perfection. A heapin' helping of Jambalaya to round out the plate. With nimble nudging, each fork-full a perfect bite. Each nibble a nod to the Chef's intent. The chef we got to meet. Darrin's his name. The Kitchen Kreator. My date du jour (every jour, actually, LOL) worked her way through a wonderful Bleu Cheese Wedge Salad. A real classic that did not disappoint. Under the guidance of Rochelle, and the insightful oversight of Paris, this night set the mood for a romantic romp. Ahem, a ride on the St. Charles streetcar. To nowhere. And back. That's exactly what we did. Stepping off the streetcar, those two lovers bid goodbye to the night. They strolled casually back to their nearby room. Hand in hand. He. Well, me, kinda felt like Eric Clapton, in that gorgeous love song of his. Wonderful Tonight. And then I tell her, as I turn out the light I say, "My darling, you were wonderful tonight Oh my darling, you were wonderful tonight".... Thank you, Mr. Ed's.

- Walked in on the weekend and didn't require reservations - Got their charboiled oysters and it was really good. Super flavorful, still bubbling hot when they were set on the table - Got cups of seafood gumbo and gumbolaya - I enjoyed their sweet tea - Lots of seating space - TVs near the bar and scattered around the dining room - Service was good

Pretty chill neighborhood spot that has football on Sundays. Their oysters are pretty decent compared to some other places, especially considering this isn't some high end place, decent food and price all around.

Visited Mr. Ed's Oyster Bar in NOLA expecting a seafood symphony, but ended up having my taste buds perform a standing ovation! The charbroiled oysters were so good; I asked if they were trained by Michelin-starred mollusks. The crawfish beignets? They were like little doughnut-shaped dreams stuffed with spicy magic. I'm pretty sure my taste buds did the cha-cha. Mr. Ed, you've turned me into a seafood snob, and I'm loving it. Five stars, or should I say, five pearls and crawfish confetti! Shoutout to Tina for being the best server

Loved the charred oysters and raw oysters. Wish I knew they were offering happy hour monday-friday for oysters too! I would skip the crawfish spinach artichoke dip though. Service was great -- my server was nice and had provided quick service.

Back for a second round!! And again great customer service this time from Patrick F.!! Very attentive server always coming around to make sure we didn't need anything ! 10/10! The food we had Charbroiled Oysters again 10/10 We had the Green Tomato Stack!! Price 6/10 but the taste 10/10 so it was worth it anyways! Not pictured we had a side of red beans and jambalaya! They ran out of white rice so they subbed jambalaya rice in the red beans as well! Red Beans with Jambalaya rice 12/10!!! Jambalaya alone 7.5/10!!! Cornbread 10/10 if you're in town please check this location out

ate here our first day in NOLA. Had the charbroiled oysters red beans and rice, satisfying grinds, a bit of a wait for food but that's what happens when you eat at a place that's filled to the gills. special shout out to hailey our server. super attentive and a real sweetheart.

Everything was so good , fresh and hot delicious, we come all the way from Austin tx , they kids were hungry we seen this place and stop here , glad we did , we had ordered Fried Chicken and Pork Chops, the plates were so big that I could have shared with my daughter, the chicken comes in 4 pieces and pork chops 2 pieces. We had to get it to go . The drink was delicious and also the garlic oyster I will stop by here again. Everything always great .

This seafood restaurant was recommended by the hotel staff we were staying at few blocks away. Nice walking into much needed air conditioning restaurant as it was very hot and humid when we went. It was my first meal for the trip and went straight to the shrimp po boy. Can't go wrong with a good po boy sandwich with a cold IPA. Service was friendly as well.

Had the Chargrilled Oysters, with Parmasean and Garlic. The special "Red fish Tacos" 11.95. A spooky Rita! Very nice place. Food was excellent. The three Tacos were a nice portion. Chargrilled Oysters were drenched in butter and Parm!!! SpookyRita! For the season hit just Right for 6 dollars! Def Recomned. Down the street from Holiday inn express St. Charles. Walking Distance. Under Frwy Bridge.

Mr. Ed's has got it going on! I didn't know charbroiled oysters could taste so good, and no other restaurant in the area could compare (not even the ones with very long lines!). I loved them so much, I came 3 days in a row! On my first visit, it was actually my first meal in Louisiana ever. I got one of their seafood platters, so I could try lots of the seafood, but found myself disappointed. But, the oysters I ordered on the side were just so fantastic, I felt like I was in heaven eating them! Mr. Ed's oysters are different than others in the area because they are the only ones I found that had the true char grilled flavor. Others were more like broiled. But there's just something special about the chargrilled flavor in the oysters that makes them magical as opposed to just good. The garlic bread was delicious, it had a very interesting topping that tasted a bit sweet? I really enjoyed making a meal of the dozen oysters and using the garlic bread to sop up the juices. Service was quick and friendly, and I was grateful not to have to wait during any of my visits. It really was the best food I've had in town; I'd highly recommend the oysters over any others.

We walked here from our B&B, sat right at the bar, then watched the pit master grill oysters on the half shell. And I thought to myself, 'I sure would like to get me some of those oysters!' So I ordered myself a dozen Crawfish Rockefellers and some gumbo. My wife ordered fried green tomatoes and crab cakes. The crab and oysters were fantastic. The tomatoes could have been cooked a little longer, and the gumbo was okay but it didn't knock my socks off. I wasn't wearing socks when I ate here, but still. Our waitress was not overly friendly and only somewhat attentive. All in all, I would eat here again if it happened to be convenient, but I would not go out of my way to return.

Service was great for a Thur dinner party of 8 just before end of happy hour. Drinks and appetizers on this menu were appealing and satisfied. Chargrilled oysters were the best we've exp so far in NO.....A few places prior really disappointed. Not overcooked, good smoke flavor and big enough to savor. Fried seafood and seafood pasta was also better than other spots we tried. Stay away from the gumbo, my only disappointment!

For the food we did get - 4 stars For the food that never came - 0 stars For the service from our first server - 4 stars For the person in the kitchen that wouldn't give a straight answer - negative stars For the guy I think was the manager - 3.5 stars I know that seems like a lot of random mess. It was. Our trip to Mr Ed's was pretty much a shit show. It started well enough. We sat at a table for 2 on the tiny sidewalk patio. We were literally bordering a not so nice smelling alley so I'm not going to use any words like cute or quaint. Shortest version I can explain- We had scoped out the menu before we went so we knew what we were ordering. Husband isn't a seafood guy but they had 3 dishes that sounded like they'd work. I ordered the baked oysters that came so highly acclaimed and he ordered the chicken pasta. We had an appetizer but it wasn't noteworthy. It was 30 minutes and we finally got an entree. The oysters were good. Others have described them well. They came out before our other entree but the server said the pasta would be right out. 10 minutes later, we still hadn't seen it or the server. Another server came to another table I asked her to find our server and ask about the pasta. She came right back and said our food would be right up. 10 more minutes and our server came back and told us he just found out they were out of chicken. We ordered a burger. He left to order it. The manager came fo the table about 10 minutes after that and told us they were out of the burgers. This now eliminates all of the non seafood dishes. They offered to make a vegetarian dish but Husband was really not having it and just wanted to leave. They did comp the dinner we did get. It was a nice gesture but I still can't recommend going here.

The best crab cakes I have had in my life, even better than Florida. The crab cakes are served so fresh from the kitchen that the Chef delivers them. If you order them you must make sure you also take the time to order the fried oysters too. The oysters are the only item that can top the crab cakes. Yummy!!! On a scale of 1- 5 stars I give them 10. Yummmmyyyyy!!!

Stopped in here for lunch while in New Orleans and had a dozen raw oysters and the Taste of New Orleans. The food was great. The oysters were fresh tasting and looking. The sausage was also some of the best sausage we had eaten in a while that was on thee Taste of New Orleans plate. Sat at the bar and talked with the lady running the bar area and she answered some questions I had about the area and when prompted about this or that was very helpful. We will be back.

Recommended by a local for their oysters. They have a fun play on them. These were jalapeño charbroiled and were great. Staff was friendly and attentive. Restaurant was clean and so were the restrooms.

Had a delicious lunch today. The shrimp poboy, onion rings and shrimp/chef salad were so good. We really enjoyed how the shrimp and onion rings were fried...not greasy at all. Our waitress, Haley, was very personable and didn't great job taking care of us. Overall it was a good experience. WPearson

We came to NOLA to visit friends. My request? I want gumbo. Jambalaya. Gumbo. Jambalaya... alternating until I leave back home. Our local friends took us to this modest spot for true Cajun-creole. They were right. It was true to form. Had the jambalaya this time. Delicious. Others had the chicken fricasee and fried catfish. Service was quick and polite. Leave the NOLA hype behind and give this place a try.

My first taste of New Orleans cuisine after flying all day. Rochelle was super attentive and friendly at the bar. She kept refilling my soda and making sure I was enjoying the food. The seafood gumbo was just okay, I would skip the gumbo here and hopefully find more flavorful gumbo elsewhere. I was very excited to try the crawfish beignets and they sure hit the spot. The filling has plenty of crawfish so you get your moneys worth. The savory filling incorporated with the crunch of the pastry and a sweet chili sauce on top was very satisfying. If I have time I would definitely come back for their quick and friendly service.

Nothing but good things to say about out this place. Charbroiled oysters are my favorite food because of this place! We were able to Go during happy hour (5-7 on weekdays), so we got more oysters than we expected! :-D Service was excellent. Love the atmosphere! 10/10!!! I had a crab cake pasta that I loved too!

One of the greatest culinary experiences I've had in a while. The inside is very spacious and very clean I was able to get a seat at the bar( my go to ) from my seat I could see my oysters being grilled to perfection.......all the garlic herb sauce being drizzled on top & the parmesen cheese sprinkled with love a dozen of those a few times a week is necessary. That along with a few good drinks & you can't go wrong. Do yourself a favor come in here get your taste buds happy

This was recommended by our Uber driver who was local to the area. Busy place around lunch on a Thursday. It was the weekend before at Patrick's day. Went for the chargrilled oysters with the jalapeño. The alligator wasn't anything special. And the gumbo was a bit salty. Service was decent and was glad to be seated right away since we just landed from our flight.

Great server and a decent hurricane but average to below average fish and shrimp. Looks like it could be a hit, but the blackened snapper and the fried fish and shrimp meal were misses. The appetizer crab cakes were a decent size but despite a deep fried outer crust were mushy and completely without texture. Way too expensive for the quality and flavor of what came out. Bummer of a first meal in New Orleans. We took a chance because it was in walking distance but definitely not worth what we spent. ($80 for two meals, appetizer and one hurricane)

Great location. You can take the street car. The fired oysters were too smokey and dried out. I didn't hate it but I'm sure there are better places if you're wanting oysters. Good hurricanes!

Can't believe I've never had charbroiled oysters before coming here! The oysters are charbroiled with garlic butter and parmesan cheese and it was such a flavor bomb. It was also served with some bread and lemons. My partner and I also ordered the fried chicken. It was moist, but disappointingly bland. I wouldn't order that again. Overall, very pleasant experience as the oysters were the highlight.

It was a nice taste to New Orleans. We always try new places when we come. The food was good with lots of flavor. But the waiters was great. They where super nice and outgoing. Always makes for a great time.

First time in New Orleans and this place didn't disappoint! I got the Taste of New Orleans and the grilled oysters. Staff was very kind and attentive! Great service

The oysters? The fried chicken? The southern hospitality? Sign me up every damn time. 10/10 love this place.

This is a chill place. The server were attentive and friendly. The happy hour drink was ok. The fried food was pretty good. Lightly battered. The oyster was fresh and favors were on point. Price was on the more expensive side

If you're looking for a pretentious spot with tourist prices, this is not your place. But if you're looking for good, affordable food with friendly and fast service, this is the place. My colleague and I found this place on Yelp (we were craving oysters) and sat at the bar when we arrived. We placed our orders and pretty soon we could see our chargrilled oysters being cooked! Talk about being fresh! The baked oysters were excellent as well.. the oysters were big and the toppings weren't skimped! The hurricane was excellent as well! We might be back later this week!

Ask where the seafood comes from, not just if it locally sourced. when we ate there a few weeks ago, here is what was ordered and implied that it was local...crawfish, crab meat, catfish.....taste was so bad that I had to insist on source. Waiter was clearly afraid of loosing her job. All not local. i grew up in family owned bar restaurants..,uptown and bucktown. everything was local and fresh, and catfish was never on the menu. A good seafood is going to cost 50.00 and up. For the rich or foolish. Last, Ed's oversalts and has been doing so for too many years. Does so to cover a poor flavor and to increase shelf life.

Everything was fresh and hot , I'll I can say is stop here if you in town .. We come from Austin Tx , the kids was ready to eat and we seen this spot , and was like let's try it. And it was the best .. we enjoyed it , also our plates were so big we had to get it to go . We had got chicken and pork chops.. I could have gotten 1 order of chicken and shared with my daughter. Chicken was 4 pieces and pork was 4 pieces.. and they were big . FYI . Best place to stop by and eat . Oh oysters were delicious also .

One of the best places we ate in NOLA! Excellent, huge, fresh raw oysters that you can watch being shucked and the crawfish beignets were DELICIOUS!! Happy hour prices can't be beat: $1.25 raw oysters, $1.50 chargrilled. YUM! Be careful, their horseradish is off the charts hot, which we loved! We sat at the bar and the bartender/server was smiley and nice, not the case with MANY of the places we went in NO.

My girlfriends and I went here after a Saints game for late lunch/ early dinner. I highly recommend the oysters, they were AMAZING! I would also suggest ordering a cocktail, I had a hurricane because I'm a rum girl . No one had a single complaint about their food. We ordered gumbo, crawfish/spinach artichoke dip, fried shrimp etc. I couldn't resist the crab cake pasta. I had food to take home. Our server was very sweet and patient. I will probably revisit when I'm in New Orleans.

Mr.ed is a place with poor food handler I had the burger steak the onions was spoiled It was a all around bad experience even the mixed version drinks were sour that was hands down the worst restaurant I've eaten at in 2024

Lord we have to stop at this place everytime we come home to New Orleans!! It's a must have. The cupcake moscato is amazingly good. The oysters are on point and very tasty and the service is the same every time very pleasant experience. We always sit by the fireplace it gives us a homey feel!

Got to say this place filled our food list of charboiled oysters. Our host was welcoming and led us right by their fireplace. It was a cold night! We were then welcomed by our server, he was very nice and pleasant to talk to. We ordered oysters, raw and char boiled. Delicious and fresh. We tried the alligator bites as an experiment.. To say for myself, I was not a fan. Our server said it was 60% alligator and 40% pork. It tasted like shredded fish and texture was mushy, but smelled lowkey like shrimp. Not for me. The drinks weren't strong, but it was a pleasant experience. Bathroom was down a hallway and turns, inside was dark and chilly lol. But soap was good and had paper towels.
