Reviews of New Orleans Food & Spirits
Brooke L.
The onion rings were amazing. The rest of the food was served room temperature and was not very good. Our server was great and attentive. The black table clothes were dingy and old looking.
Chelsea Bussey
One of my favorite places from my childhood. My grandparents used to take me here when there were alive. There food has always been consistently great. I've seriously never had a bad here. My favorite dish is the Eggplant Pontchartrain.
Raquel Marcelle
I'm never disappointed when I come here. The food is always good and consistent and the servers are always fast, friendly and kind. We had the voodoo rolls (which are my favorite), spinach and artichoke dip and the shrimp feast...EVERYTHING WAS DELICIOUS!!!
V Turner
Came here as I always do when in town. Table of 5 seated upon arriving. The spinach dip was hot. The charboil oysters were a little small, but tasted very good. The voodoo rolls were just as good as always. The sauce definitely complements it. The bon temp chicken was filling. He took some pasta home. I didnt taste the chicken from the salad but it looked good and was more than expected. The catfish Lafayette was also good as always. Took a little less than half home. The seafood platter, however, needs work. The oysters weren't fried enough and the other seafood was barely seasoned.
Donielle Kirkwood
Really good food and atmosphere. My bartender/server made great recommendations! Great break from the busy downtown New Orleans!
Princess Collection
Firstly, our waiter was super nice, and attentive. The Crawfish voodoo rolls were amazing, definitely recommend forever. I ordered the stuffed catfish and it was very good, the portions were large. My boyfriend ordered a chicken entrée, and we both ordered pasta. We definitely had to take some home, our waitress recommended so many great things on the menu. I can’t wait to come back here, it’s not too pricey. You get what you pay for, for sure!
DS, D.
Great customer service, friendly staff and yummy food! The wait was 30-35 minutes but it wasn’t too much of a hassle. The crawfish rolls, grilled catfish, baked potato, grilled stuffed catfish, shrimp noodles, red beans and rice, and chargrilled oysters were everything! It’s been awhile since I’ve been to Food & Spirits but this trip was well worth it oh my jeez! The gumbo was ridiculously good!! Highly recommend of course!
MerkZ
I don’t think they take reservations. You get there and they put your name on the list. There is parking in the front and back. Very popular place so it might be hard to find parking. And there will be a wait. The first time we went they said a 45 minute wait but we barely waited 20 minutes
Definitely recommend the voodoo crawfish rolls. They are fried to perfection and are super addicting. Also recommend the redfish Pontchartrain.
Brian Black
Is great casual, Cajun seafood experience. What you should expect to find in NOLA. Shrimp ate was amazing and wish I could have tried the rest of the menu.
Nancy Viejo
Had'nt been since BC (before covid) and the food is better than ever. This salad was so big I had 3 meals from it. The ingredients were all fresh. I plan on going for lunch and/or dinner. It on my favorites list. #bestfreindslunch
Jet Set
This place is consistently very busy and consistently delicious. Parking can be challenging in the area and you may have to wait for a table. Reasonably priced for very fine food.
Jessica Ainsworth
It's been a year since we've been here and still this place is absolutely amazing! Highly recommend the Voodoo rolls and charbroiled oysters!
Harlan Victor
Voodoo Egg rolls are amazing! The redfish pontchartrain was a great entre! I would go there again. Our waitress was exceptional.
Ellen Sawyer
Drove all the way from Atlanta and this was my first stop, even before the hotel! Had to get my fix of Voo Doo Rolls! Plus the potato salad is literally the best I’ve ever had and always crave it. The to-go beers also took the edge off after a long day in the car! One of my all time favorites!
J D
Loved everything here! Started w/ Grilled & Florentine Oysters... they were absolutely amazing!!! 😋 The Stuffed Blackened Catfish w/Shrimp Pasta was devine! My hubby enjoyed his Blackened Redfish Pontchartrain as well!! I also recommend the Hurricane Katrina... 🤪 …
Denise Brinkley
Food was simply delicious. I had chargrilled oysters, hush puppies, Catfish, shrimp and sweet potato fries.
Darryl Sanders
Family friendly place to eat with a nice atmosphere and great food. The staff was super friendly and the drinks were tasty.
Ranata Coxie
Great dining experience...Food was excellent as always. I will definitely be back!!
Mike Anderson
Consistently great food, friendly staff....never a bad dish
Zvash
This place is so legit. Both Carla and Leo took great care of our party of 13 twice! We went on Saturday and Sunday. Lol. The food is so incredible and the portions are gigantic! The customer service is A+ Can you open a location in Houston? PLEASE? I had such a great time here. There is a cool patio and two bars. The bartender in the back who looked like a old trucker (no offense) made a great Mai Thai! Just nothing but good things to say all around about this place. There is enough parking all around the building and across the street. Prices are good especially for the quality food.
Hope to see you guys again in a few weeks😍
Tasha Fierce
Still delicious. I had not been in 5 years. Still delicious
Angela Howard
On 9/24/2022, was I and relatives from out of town, went here for dinner. It was extremely crowded. We waited 1 1/2 hrs to be seated. Our waiter was the best. The food was horrible. The crayfish rolls were made out of some thick dough, it was chewy and no flavor! The spinach and artichoke dip with fried chips were good. Seafood platter, was awful. The shrimps had too much of batter and fried too hard, the fish, has well has the oysters were not good. It was a horrible experience. The grilled oysters w e r e half done. I myself was so embarrassed because I had recommended this place to my friends from out of town. Everything changed, not for the good either. The best thing about that night was the hurricane drink, and our waiter who was very efficient. We laughed and we talked and we enjoyed his company. I had not been there in 2 years because of the covid-19. I will not be returning there again. So embarrassing for me, because I was the one who was bragging on their food. This will never happen again. I don't know if you have new cooks or something's not right. Just saying we waited so long just to be seated, and have our dinner cold, not taste at all. Well, I guess if I want to go there, I will go on the Westbank. It's such a shame. The prices were on the web for one thing, once we received our menus, the prices were higher. Didn't have a problem with that if the food was great. Maybe someone should taste their own cooking. We also ordered 2 Swamp shrimp pasta dishes, it also wasn't good. The sauce for the this dish was too watery.
Nandi James
I enjoyed being in the atmosphere. I ate here my last night in New Orleans. Considering the first night of my stay, the restaurant I ate was horrible this made up for EVERYTHING. The atmosphere was NICE and gave me New Orleans vibes. It was classy but not to “upidy” at the same time. I had a catfish po-boy with fries. It was awesome. I’d definitely revisit if I ever come to New Orleans again.
Vanessa Felts
Absolutely Amazing food and service 😍 Philip waited on us, he was great 👍
Vista Ratliff
I really enjoyed my visit at Food and Spirit. I love the Food very much. The Chef and helpers do an excellent job 👍🏽. The atmosphere is very pleasant and friendly when I'm there. I rate them a 5🌟 🤩
Mary Jones
When we walked in, we noticed that the place was packed. We had to wait for a table -- which took about 20 mins. But the wait was worth it. The appetizers were golden brown and delicious. Then our meals came out and we were not disappointed. The plates were piled high and tasty. We all left with togo boxes. I will definitely be going back when I'm in NOLA.
kay richards
Food couls use a little more flavor. There was no depth to the flavors of the various dishes. Overall enjoyable experience, nice setting, good servers and decent food at a great price.
Stephen Donald
This is my 2nd trip here in 4 years and I'm glad that we returned. There was an hour wait at 7:30PM but we didn't mind. Our waitress (didn't get her name) was very nice and accomodating.
We started with the Voodoo Crawfish rolls and it was delicious. In fact, all of the food came out hot and fresh. The picture is of the Seafood Sampler and it was plenty. My wife ordered the stuffed catfish. The potato salad was good and I'm picky about potato salad.
Teedy
It was amazing service was amazing even though we got there toward the end of the shift and we were a party of seven no one had an attitude with us the service was impeccable our server was amazing I cannot see enough about him thank you so much for our service the food was top notch my fried chicken salad enough about it I loved it thanks you so much. That was my second time there and I will be back.
Roxanne Keller
The place is not big enough to accommodate the amount of people that they service it should be an addition or closed in the outside part and make it bigger they need more waitresses the food was tasty and it was hot that was a plus but that outside part can be used all the time so they need to close half of that in and make that part of the restaurant so they can serve more people so they won't be awake time as long as 35 minutes or more
Mrs Suge Byrd-
Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful! Can't say enough for the VooDoo rolls, really don't remember what this dish was maybe stuffed catfish? (Sorry way to many food pics. I am a true foodie). Anywho it was delicious.
Oh yeah the rabbit on Thursday, poor Bambie lucky me 😉. …
Cheryl Winey
Service was a Lil shaky as we all felt “rushed. We let the waitress know it was our first time dining there and we felt she should have explained some dishes or perhaps told us about popular dishes etc.. but she didn’t. Our dishes tasted great although we did have to send two of the dishes back to be warmed (we were a table of 3). The fried dish’s temp was fine. We had the
Blackened Shrimp
Crab cake ponchatrain
Seafood sampler
Voodoo Crawfish Rolls
Chargrilled Oysters
Cup of Gumbo
Danielle Smith
Place is very mid. Not sure why it’s always packed… there are way better places to eat. Went for late lunch. The Spinach dip was bland. The soft shell crab po boy was bad… it was very bland. Could tell by looking at the batter before I even tried it that it wasn’t going to have much flavor. I had asked for cheese on it and they put shredded cheese on it? Then the fried catfish Lafayette was ok. The fried catfish was good but the sauce was gross! Pale white sauce with no seasoning in sight…. It’s like the restaurant ran out of any seasoning…. The only really good food we ate was the fried shrimp our friend had…. Big let down….
Kayla Smith
Literally my and my husbands new favorite place to eat! Service and food was outstanding! I'm not sure we've ever been somewhere we were completely satisfied with in all aspects. We had the Voodoo Crawfish Rolls for an appetizer, my husband had Stuffed Blackened Catfish, and i had Stuffed Eggplant and it was all perfection 👌 We both had the crawfish pontchartrain sauce over our angel hair pasta. 🤤 I wish they had this restaurant where we lived!
Quinntrell Macklin
The restaurant is always busy so expect a nice wait. I guess that speaks to the popularity. My family enjoyed the food even though the service was a bit lacking with missed drinks refills and incorrect orders. I had a vegetarian pasta and spinach dip. The pasta was really great and the spinach dip was about average. The price is definitely reasonable and I would return again expecting a better experience.
wigberto padilla
Absolutely loved our time here. Staff are super friendly and courteous. We had the chargrilled oysters, gumbo, and shrimp feast. Flavorful and delicious. Only regret was getting too full to try the deserts :P.
Rick Ball
The food was so delicious! Voodoo crawfish rolls, corn & crawfish soup, stuffed artichoke, and fresh crab cakes with crawfish pasta. Don't forget the dirty martini.
Monique Henderson
The food was hot, fresh and was delicious 😋.. We had lunch portions and that was plenty. The voodoo rolls are the best appetizers to start off with.. We were able to sit out on the patio which was nice. The staff was very welcoming as well. …
Clarissa Shepard
The food and service was absolutely amazing! It was my first time here, and I will be returning.
Nikhole Stennis
Food was great!! Had the red fish, bread pudding, and oysters. Definitely a good time!
Sasha LaRue
My first time going and then food was delicious. Thank you Kelly for the excellent service. When you go, make sure you get the Voodoo Crawfish Rolls. They give you more than enough food and the ambiance is nice. I will be a regular. Oh the Raspberry Cheesecake was delish too.
Jason Kilgore
The one in Metarie is one of my go-to places when I'm in town. I *have* to get the Catfish Loosianne at least once per trip, preferably with an Abita Amber draft.
Savonna Stewart
They are fast very sweet host food was delicious I tried something new I was amazing will be going again
Arinea C.
The Voodoo rolls were awesome! Can't wait to try those again. That place was also packed, so I don't suggest you wait until you are starving to go, but the volume of customers made sense once I tasted their food. I understand now why it was so popular .
Rondell Richardson
Celebrated my birthday last night, with a party of 12-13 people. When I arrived everyone wasn’t on time so they couldn’t seat us until everyone got there, which was pretty fair. The lady
Kept asking when they were arriving so she could seat us, which I didn’t take it offensive at all. She was determined to get us a table❤️. and the waitress we had was very prepared. She was on top of everything. She made sure we all received our food around the same time. She even gave me a free dessert 🍮 🤫😂. I absolutely LOVED the food was well seasoned. I had fish and shrimp platter and crawfish voodoo rolls.It was my first time going for my bday, but I can definitely see me going back on a regular❤️😂! They absolutely get 5 ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ From me! I definitely enjoyed my bday here!❤️
Elizabeth Jeffrey
The fried shrimp and catfish platter was cooked to a nice golden brown with a generous portion. The swamp pasta was very good and reasonably priced. We also got a cup of gumbo which could have had a little more flavor. We ate inside and the restaurant was pretty noisy and a little hard to hear each other talk.
MJ Wells
Food was ok...place smells like sewage when u walk thru terrace entrance. Crawfish roll appetizer is good. Soft shell crab has no seasoning in the dredge so I didnt really help the soft shell crab. Shrimp Lafayette was a bit flat on the seasoning (salt) side but it was aight. Fried shrimp on shrimp feast were good. They could have kept the stuffed shrimp...it was burned on the outside. Corn soup was pretty good, again it needed salt. Red beans and rice were good. So for almost $70 bucks I really wasnt impressed. Full....but not impressed at all. They were lucky we even stayed and spent our money after being offended by the odor at the door.
Kelly Trail
Fantastic food . if you like gumbo or bisque you have to try it. Light fried fish and shrimp. Best fried shrimp salad in the greater New Orleans area.The service is not the best but the food makes it worthwhile. Don't forget to go across the Levy and get a view of the Lake at sunset. Absolutely beautiful
John Laplace
The oysters were delicious and the stuffed eggplant. Good food. Leo our waiter was very helpful and friendly. Highly recommend this restaurant.
Janet Marks
Very good lunch. Miss the salad that used to come with it. Now it's 2.00 or more. Sad. Also no bread comes with it anymore. Price is 2.00 more.
Teresa Benton
Food was gr8! The oysters are huge. My 3 year old enjoyed the kids pasta. The Friday eggplant special was really good too.
Xaundra Washington
The stuffed eggplant and voodoo rolls are great! The oysters are okay. I will definitely be back. Easiest way to get served quickly is to sit at the bar other wise there will be a long wait for a table.
Jonathan Dufresne
First time here for a friends birthday dinner. I got the special, Pecan Trout, it's was delicious!! In my opinion, I feel like they could have a few more options with appetizers. Service was great, beer was I've cold. Would recommend and will come back!!
Debra Goodman
An entourage of 48 people, a girls trip, from Vicksburg, MS traveled to NOLA for a day trip for my birthday. We dined at New Orleans Food and Spirits! The food was delicious, plentiful and reasonably priced. We enjoyed ourselves and loved the patio with water fountain!!!
Joshua Hutchison
I went to lunch on a Thursday and had the white beans with rabbit. It was an excellent dish that almost melted in your mouth. The bartender was very friendly and performed well.
Alex Barnes
Hands down some of the best food in New Orleans. We have never been disappointed and the prices are reasonable. You can go casual or enjoy a great date night while enjoying a fantastic view outside
Eduardo Moguel
Would have given it 5 stars but several items on the menu were not available. However, what we did order was good. I do recommend it.
Kristin Bogopane
Delicious! The Crawfish eggrolls are SO good! I got the blackened redfish pasta and it was so good my babies even liked it. My husband always goes with the seafood platter and my son loved the gumbo. We just love New Orleans and all the food that comes with it!
Sally Jun
Best gumbo in town alert!
This place serves the best seafood gumbo I had ever had in my life. We were mindblown on how flavorful and addicting this gumbo was. Please get the gumbo. Yall are missing out if you don't.
Along with the gumbo, we ordered the catfish lafayette and the swamp pasta. To my surprise, they use the exact same sauce. The swamp pasta consists of only shrimp and for the catfish lafayette, you can choose between fried or blackened catfish. We got the fried and loved it.
I only took a star off because we ordered all of our food at once, and the poboy took nearly 30 minutes to come out. By the time the poboy came out, we were already done with our meal. Our server was incredibly nice and removed all of the drink charges off of our tab for the delay, but we were still a little upset that it came out so late as we would have loved it along with our meal. The blackened catfish poboy was still amazing though.
There is some wait on the weekend so be prepared to wait. They do have a bar and a courtyard with chairs available to sit and wait.
Justin King
Been coming here for years when I come into town. You can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. They don’t do reservations, so sometimes it can be busy but it’s worth the wait.
John Morillon
AMAZING FOOD! Great Staff, and great prices! I can't wait to go back and eat again!
Go and try this place you will be glad you did!
Nancy Benton
Lunch specials on Saturdays great flavor generous portion sizes. Great service even during busy lunch time. Already planning our return visit
Susan Gosnell Maher

Kenneth Brooks
Everything is fresh, cooked perfectly, and seasoned to perfection. Definitely try their gumbo!
Nikki Jay
Always a good meal here. I love their charbroiled oysters. Great seafood entrees and the drinks are good also.
Angelique williams
The food and staff were very attentive and great. Will be going again. They really give you a lot for your money.
Ebonee’ Winfrey-Pierce
Food is amazing!!! Laid back atmosphere. The first waitress we had was THE BEST...today’s not so great but hey...the oysters are amazing!!! Chargrilled and Florentine!! Yum!!! Don’t forget to squeeze your lemon on!!!😋😋 …
Jesse Florentine
I had the Stuffed Catfish. It was one of the best meals I have ever had. The catfish was perfectly pan seared. The crab cake it was stuffed with had great taste and consistency. The shrimp past was so good. I cannot wait to go back the next time I am in NOLA.
Adi Singh
This was hands down one of the best lunch I’ve ever had! The chargrilled oysters are to die for!! The place is a bit far from the touristy areas of Nola but absolutely worth the trek!
Roland Pinault
Wow wow wow, what else can I say? Chargrilled oysters that were top 3 in NOLA for about half the price of the other two "famous" restaurants known for this tasty treat. Also had blackened redfish with crawfish sauce and pasta that was perfect. Swing on up to the lakefront and make this your spot.
Chris Matthews
Food was excellent in flavor and speed in which it arrived. Adaira was kind and patient with my family in a busy and boisterous evening. Great place to dine.
Wayne Kimball, Jr.
The catfish and shrimp combo was outstanding! I was very pleased (and appreciative) that I could get both steamed veggies and fries as a side. The place has lots of tasty options, including delicious crawfish corn chowder!
UUSNMOC Joe
Local favorite for all the must eats. Great Gumbo, crab cakes, oysters, seafood dishes, blackened dishes, poboys, muffalatas, stuff artichoke, red beans, jambalaya, etc.
Rachell Johnson
The food was good but the Voo Doo Crawfish Rolls have gotten smaller, and has too much cheese and not enough crawfish.
Giorgio Di Gio
The food and the service were both excellent. My server Kayla, was very courteous and attentive. Definitely a great experience.
Shanta Buffington
Great food, even better service. The wait wasn't as long as we were quoted when we first arrived. The food was beyond delicious. I ordered the Bon Temp Chicken. Magnificent!! Will most definitely return. Only complaint was the cold weather.
Rita Jelly
My favorite restaurant. Very clean & amazing service. Seating inside and out doors with a weather proof wall for comfort. Can't go wrong with nothing on the menu. My favorite appetizers are Voodoo rolls, hush puppies and onion rings. My favorite dish is Hawaiian salmon with steamed veggies. There smoothies are delicious as well.
Fae Buczek
Amazing employee helping us with the menu and telling us about the local things.
We started with voodoo crawfish rolls, and a plate of char-grilled oysters, They were both so amazing, they were the best oysters I've had so far.
For my main meal and what's in the photo is the Crawfish Crab cake, it was so good and flavorful.
All the food was hot and ready to eat, the food was so very tasty and enjoyable, and one of my favorite meals to date.
The Atmosphere was very nice and calming. No one was yelling or was loud and it wasn't too busy.
Brandy Williams
This is my favorite location for this restaurant. The service has always been a shining star for me. Waiters and waitresses are quick and kind. The food is delicious, especially the buffalo chicken rolls. And most importantly, this place serves an amazing cocktail!
April Amos
Voodoo crawfish rolls we're out of this world! Service was a Lil lacking.. our server seemed very distracted. Atmosphere was nice. Wish we could have sat outside but they were not serving outside when we visited.
Evil Eyez
It was a little bit of a wait to get in but that’s to be expected. We had a party of 6. There were a couple of things they didn’t have like shrimp. I ordered the catfish platter. I can say it’s enough food for 2 maybe 3. I couldn’t even eat half. I expected a little more flavor. The customer service was good a little slow but I’ve learned how to be patient especially when the service is good. 4 ⭐️because of the lack there of. I know it’s beyond their control but I give an honest opinion in these reviews.
Kim Dantin
My first time here. It was amazing! The wait time was 20 minutes, but the bar was open and we enjoyed cocktails by the fountain. It was beautiful! The service was first class and the food was outstanding! I will definitely be back and share this gem with friends. Excellent experience!
Johnny Brasco
I’m actually shocked that I haven’t written any reviews for this place yet, as it’s kind of been a go-to place for my dad and I for a while now. Anytime I come back to New Orleans to visit, you can bet on us coming here at least once during that time.
Obviously my dad enjoys this place, it’s hard enough trying to find a great sea food place in this area, and the reviews online don’t really help either. But, I can say for sure that this is one of the best you can find. Even if you want a steak or chicken, you can still come here and eat some really good food.
On my latest visit, it was my dad, his girlfriend, my wife and her parents (who were visiting New Orleans for the first time, from Brazil). Normally I get one of the fried baskets, but this time I wanted to be adventurous, lol. After bouncing around the menu some and changing what I wanted several times, I locked in my choice of the Blackened Catfish, stuffed with crab meat, pasta with shrimp sauce. Let me say this, growing up in New Orleans and by a lake in Charlotte, I’ve had my share of fish and catfish. This was THE best I’ve ever had the pleasure of eating. I ate every last bite, as I wanted to eat it while it was still fresh and didn’t want to lose any of the flavor from reheating it the next day.
Normally, I’d give this place a solid 4 stars, but after experiencing that catfish, I can say for sure they deserve 5 stars now. My wife had the steak and it was cut in-house and was sold as 14 oz, but it looked more to be 16 oz. It was very tasty and would be a great choice for any steak lovers. Her mother had the grilled hickory smoked chicken and it was just as amazing.
Being that I know I’ll be back no matter what, the next time I’m in town, I have a lot more to look forward too. I would recommend this place to any local or visitor without a doubt. You’ll be pleased no matter what you order.
Shewan Harris
Really enjoyed the ambiance and food🥰💙🥰💙🥰 The service was phenomenal!!!
Coach Kenny
Amazing restaurant. Our waiter Brad was great and the food was fabulous.
Charlotte Baker
First time visiting and would definitely go back. The food and service were great!
Tracey M (Carib Wanderer)
Very long wait for a party of 5 on a Saturday afternoon. Service was great and the gumbo is among the best I've had. Will definitely be back at a quieter time of the week.
Anthony Angelain
Our trip to Nola food and spirits was excellent! One of the best spots in the area. The place was packed so things too a little long, but was worth every min. I had the stuffed fried catfish with the pasta and it was absolutely delightful. The hush puppies appetizer with the butter was simply delicious. 10/10 recommend this local spot.
Sean Louis
Good food superb service!!! Thanks I really enjoyed my visit see you guys soon.
chy b
Even with the restaurant being busy our waitress was right on time with everything and the food was delicious as always! Chargrilled Oysters are better here than Drago's
April Sanders
This is my first time discovering this place and I'm from New Orleans, LA now living in Houston Texas. The food from the shrimp salad down to the Chargrilled Oysters were perfection! I will most definitely be coming here again with a few of my out of town buddies.
Aimee Matthews
Best food ever!!!! Server Adaira was amazing with knowledge of the menu and had great suggestions.
Sharnicia Dotson
The food was out of this world delicious!!! My party had a wait, but the bar and appetizers were available to order. The stuffed shrimp, seafood gumbo and Shrimp Lafayette are MUST HAVES!
Corbie Johnson
This is my go to place and I take everyone who visits here. I had the seafood platter. I was disappointed that there were no oysters because they are my favorite, but it was enough. Always love coming here and they never disappoint.
Lavish McKenzie
Only had the raw and charbroiled oysters. The raw oysters were fresh and large. The charbroiled weren't great but not the worst I've had. I will definitely be back for the raw oysters.
Stafford Julien
I enjoyed my meal with family and friends. Good and plenty enough food for my lunch. The hostess was the best. I'll be back again. Secure parking. Love it
Kim H.
I had the Crab Ponchatrain and split the hush puppies and spinach/artichoke dip with friends.
The dip was amazing. The hush puppies were perfectly seasoned. The crab Ponchatrain is a HUGE crab cake on a bed of pasta that's smothered in a creamy crawfish sauce.
A lot of food, I was full for the rest of the day!
Law Smith
Food was good but half way through my grilled fish saw blood couldn't eat anymore
Pamela Kirkwood
The best food we had in NOLA, voodoo rolls and chargrilled oysters were awesome
Maria Landino
From the shrimp po'boy to the burger, The homemade bread pudding and the brownie sundae all are really good... people are friendly and helpful
Such Juck
Good service. Price is more expensive than local area. Not a lot of Cajun foods selection.
Candace Mosley
First time here on a recommendation from the valet at the time share. It was pretty decent and I would go again and try something else. I had the shrimp po' boy and fries. We also had onion rings as a appetizer. They were very crispy and light. They were good. I would visit again and try something else.
Jennifer Pepin
Pick the right time to go because it gets crowded. The food is good and the staff friendly, even though you know they're tired.
Jessica Alexander
Excellent food and good service. Had the stuffed catfish with angel hair pasta and cream sauce with shrimp and it was so delicious. Not surprised it was super busy during lunch on a Monday with how great their food tastes.
Connie Karnowski
Waited a few minutes under the covered patio area,area, comfortable. Raw oysters,soft shell crab AMAZING & seafood platter awesome. The bread pudding was a wonderful tasty treat to end our meal. We will be back.
Caryn Camille Raymond
This place was amazing. Great food, great service. Wanted to go somewhere of good food we could only get in New Orleans and we definitely found it. Will absolutely return.
LJ Teal
Delicious food! Quick service. I recommend the chargrilled oysters.
Christopher Mckinney
Everything was amazing, the waitress was nice but not as attentive as I would like, but the good fresh food over compensated for her slack. The atmosphere is amazing; mixed crowds in a casual setting. Overall I enjoyed myself and would return/highly recommend
Rowdy Ingram
I had the Catfish It was amazing. My wife had Hawaiian pork chop.
Christie Rachal
I love this place. The food is delicious, generous portions and well priced. I have not had a bad dish yet. Try the Crawfish voodoo rolls you won't regret it. My go to is the shrimp feast, as I love their stuffed shrimp. HINT: ask for the crawfish sauce on your pasta. It's amazing!!
Burthia Booker
Excellente! Tastes amazing, and the portions are wondrous for the price. Was my first meal as a transplant to New Orleans! Get the gumbo and the hushpuppies for sure.
Ashalay
Good food although the voodoo rolls haven't had much voodoo in them lately
nina foil
My server Maddie was phenomenal!! By far best service i’ve ever had !
Porsha Beasley
The lemon drop is made fresh and for 8 dollars a steal. The food is always good everything on the menu. I can go to this restaurant over and over.
Doug Cardinale
Great food, huge variety with very generous portions.
Gerald Brown
My rating is based on a comparison between the Covington location and the location in Bucktown. This was my first time here, but I've been to the Covington location several times. The food quality did not measure up to that of the Covington restaurant. The Voodoo Crawfish rolls were dry and had little filling in them. My pecan fish order was on the small side, and the fish was in a pool of grease. My sister's seafood sampler platter was okay, but the texture of her shrimp was as though they were cooked too long. While I may try this location again since this might have been a fluke, the Covington location has always been consistently great.

Food was great and the service just as good. I would most definitely recommend any, and everyone to go here just once. Then you will be making a return visit I guarantee. I'll will be back the next time I visit New Orleans
Kevin Waller
Never disappoints. Great service, food and atmosphere. Must do whenever we visit the city.
FRANK MASANZ
1st time eating there. Atmosphere was great. Dining room was packed with patrons. Service was fantastic. Prices were very reasonable for the amount of food you were served. Food was absolutely delicious!! 5 STARS FOR EVERYTHING!!

Drinks to wait.....food to go. Kids smashed their fried chicken sandwiches. I got the stuffed catfish and Mrs ordered pecan topped fish.
Aron Grant (Big Jay's)
Great server, first time eating rabbit. Interesting I must say. Thanks we will be back this week.

rolanda gary
Food was amazing and well seasoned. Drinks were nice and strong.
Kendell
My food was excellent, the picture does not do the quality of ingredients justice. There was a little bit of a wait and now I know why. Also, the staff was very warm and welcoming.
Trinity Williams
GREAT FOOD! YOU WILL HAVE TO WAIT TYPICALLY! BUT THE FOOD IS WORTH IT! STEAK & PASTA YUMMY! ALSO LOVE THE EGGROLLS & OYSTERS!
Canela Oldroyd
Great food. Good serving sizes. Great people.
Tamika Holland
First time coming to this restaurant. The fried catfish was the best Ive tasted in my life lol. We sat at the bar because it was very busy. The bartender was great! If you like a sweet drink, the chilly willy was amazing!! The amount of food was great for the price and enough for leftovers!
Gaetano Culotta
Nice setting in Bucktown. Great food and atmosphere
Elevating K Investments
There was a 45 minute wait but, it wasn’t a uncomfortable wait. Waiter/ food was 10 stars no complaints. I ordered voodoo egg rolls, crab cake pasta, & bread pudding. I came with 2 friends that both enjoyed their meals also. Stuff fish, & egg plant. Also ordered drinks, they were good as well
Jason Bohnenstiehl
Nice space, especially the newer outdoor area. Lots of light inside as well. Food was aight. Server was good but auto-gratted my table of three under 20% which was his mistake. Oh well. Read the room bro.
Stephanie Tanner
This place is AMAZING!!!!!! I would highly recommend anyone eating here! As we were leaving the WWII Museum, Glenn suggested this place. Thank you so much Glenn for the recommendation!!!!!
Nancie Johnson
We went here to celebrate after GRADUATION! Owners treated us just fine! Food was perfect and service was great! Thank you all for a really wonderful time
T C
Great taste and plenty of food for the money
T Bell
The food as amazing! The server.....not so much. I understand there was 7 of us but my uncle never got a chance to eat his food. He finally received his food as the rest of us were ready to go. Great food tho considering. Would definitely go again!!!
Junko Enoshima
The place is awesome and since my last time visiting (3years) this establishment they have really upgraded the place, LOVE it. Food was AWESOME!! I can’t wait to come back just for the food!!
Bobby Joe Garcia
Was a great place to eat. Service was awesome.
Sally Crow
The food was great but hearing one of the servers dropping the "f" bomb loudly and repeatedly (in front of children) was inexcusable.
Deon
Really good food. Impressed by my first New Orleans dinner.
Nayretha Haynes
Very good food... first time trying grilled oysters...they were delicious!!!
SAL FERRARA
They use to have the best Shrimp romolaid, with so many Shrimp I would get tired of eating them! But now, only 1/3rd as before! Not a good deal anymore!
Eric Crosby
Best food I've tasted all while in New Orleans
Brandon L
Food is awesome!! Voodoo rolls are my new addiction.
Ms. S Is the best
Bobby the bartender was amazing. He was very welcoming and attentive. Will definitely return again!

Tommi Walker
It was to busy to sit over a 2hr wait decided to take the food to go. Tasted great
Shelita Luke
The gumbo could have been a little better but the shrimp and catfish Poboy was good
Andrew Jones
Food was simply incredible. Will return. No doubt.
Monica Howell
Quaint little restaurant. Hospitable staff. Went here for our 10 year anniversary with our children. Accommodating and friendly. Food was AMAZING! Literally everything we ordered was delectable. Pinacoladas and sweet teas to drink, tasty. Stuffed eggplant was savory and great portion! Voodoo Crawfish rolls topped any appetizer I’ve ever had. Onion rings were cooked to perfection. Shrimp poboy was STUFFED and yummy. Florentine oysters is a must! The kids fried chicken and fries were wonderfully portioned, I don’t know what’s in their batter but my kids ate it!! Potato salad had my kid wanting more! And finally the cheesecake was devilishly sweet. Our waitress was considerate and friendly to our kids and attentive to our wants/needs. Couldn’t recommend this place more. Thank you for a wonderful time!
B Ram
1st time visiting and the food was of very good quality!! Chargrilled Oysters we’re on point and the gumbo is very good! Catfish Louisanne was good but was missing a lil something. However the service was excellent and don’t forget to get a drink, you won’t regret it…. The inside would benefit from a fresher/newer look but don’t sleep on this place… This is a must visit!
Breon Johnson
Omg their chargrilled oysters were awesome! Our waitresses was very polite and attentive.
Jashaunta Hall
The customer service here was absolutely amazing. Our waiter/ server Dillion was the absolute best. We had a wait because our party was big but it was a pleasant wait. We were able to go to the bar and get drinks while we waited... customer service was just awesome . I love it her .. I will be back soon!!
Adam Moseley
Amazing food. Seafood was great and ribeye melted in my mouth
Paul White
Amazing dinner and great atmosphere, loved it!

Love the Voodoo rolls! Had the seafood sampler.😋😋 …
Haley Ashe
Food is great, service good, portions large and nice prices. Will definitely be back!
William Ohordorff
Everything was great except they did not have Splenda for my unsweet tea. I had to provide my own.
Sharon Bostwick
Delicious food, served in generous portions at reasonable price! Loved my 1/2 shrimp povoy and cup of gumbo. Many shrimp in gumbo!
LaTia Scott
This was my last stop before the airport. The food was solid. Not a lot of frills, but great service.
M Sims
Great local food with a unique spin on some dishes.
Jeff Bourgeois
Lunch, rainy day, Wife and I stopped in, very nice, busy but service was good, split a fish and shrimp platter, with spinach and artichoke dip appetizer. We both had enough to eat, plenty of shrimp and it was a good representation of New Awlins fried seafood. Nice place nice staff, relaxed atmosphere.
Nayomi Geiselman
Customer service was awesome and food was generous proportions and yummy as hell...

Food is always delicious, love this place!!!!
FirstName LastName
We are so lucky that we came to this place. First off the portion sizes are MASSIVE, the food is outstanding and the wait staff are outta this world. Brad was our server and he was positively AMAZING. Brad knew EVERYTHING about New Orleans. He was super friendly and outspoken. Not only did he help us choose super tasty food... BUT! he was practically our unofficial tour guide. He gave us a list of like TWENTY places we had to visit.. which in my opinion was above and beyond. So far, we've been able to check a few places off on Brad's "guide to NOLA list"... and believe me.. they were all ten outta tens. Next time we're in this city we HAVE to go back to New Orleans Food & Spirits!!!
Jaja C
Charbroiled Oysters + bread was on point and super delicious! I had the stuffed catfish and the flavor of the catfish was perfectly seasoned. The angel hair shrimp pasta with the dish was very creamy. Portions are extremely large!
The restaurant was packed full and did not have social distancing so that is the main reason why it is 4 stars.
Zach
Food was great, atmosphere was nice, portions were much larger than expected.
Raymond Sweet
I enjoyed the food here. It is great with char grilled oysters. But the red beans and rice were just okay. The hush puppies are sweet. They fry them too long though and the grease is too hot. Lower the heat. The pork chop was good. However, it did lack seasoning. The fried shrimp salad also did not have seasoned shrimp. And the coating on the shrimp was too thick.
Symone Kimbell
Went yesterday and I cannot wait to go back! I really went in for chargrilled oysters but the bartender recommended the stuffed blackened catfish. Both of the dishes were simply delightful and it was so much food! One piece of fish with the pasta on the side got me nice and full. The drink I ordered was also good and strong. Recommend this place 100% worth every dollar.
Felicia Evans
Friendly staff. Casual atmosphere. Hurricane Katrina drink was great! My favorite is the voodoo rolls. I also tried the shrimp feast. It comes with two stuffed shrimp, fried shrimp and shrimp pasta. It was delicious! I never had a bad experience since I've been coming here.
Sandra Bradford
The Chargrilled Oysters here are the best by far and the Crawfish Voodoo Rolls are a delight.
KB Williams
Great food! Always packed crowd waiting! Worth the wait!
Tarangela Dawson
Great service awesome food!!
NETTHANY JACKSON
Love their oysters and voodoo rolls. Their drinks are great also. I tried everything on the menu and it was delicious. I go regularly. It's pack on the weekends and the place isn't big, so they fill up fast. I suggest to go during the week.
S Smith
I love this place. I'm very very upset that the crab cakes are gone they were my favorite. You all need to stop playing and put them back on the menu pretty please
Michele Szot
Awesome place! We would definitely come back! My fried chicken club salad was huge and tasted amazing. My husband had the crabcake and crawfish pasta and ate every last piece! The beer was ice cold!
Maria Pierre
Great selections! You can have Keto friendly dishes there, too!
Clarence Fontenot Jr
It was nice. Our waitress was fast and she was o. Point with everything. The food was fresh and the entire experience was great. My wife very constant with complaints, she even talks about her ice not being cold enough "whatever that means" but she was very satisfied with her food and the ice for that matter. The prices for everything was mid range as expected for being on the lake, but not too expensive. I never order steak off of a 95% seafood restaurant menu, but boy my wife did and I was waiting for it. She enjoyed everything. Thank you New Orleans food and spirits for making my family's night and my wife's birthday dinner pleasant.
Kendrick Harris
Sat at the bar! Bartender was awesome! Food was hot and well seasoned and delicious. Apps and food came out at the same time! No wait! Enjoyed it very well..
Elzilia Jones
The customer service was exceptional and the food was superb. The Voodoo rolls were spectacular and the fried shrimp were cooked to perfection. It was a great experience.
Ronnie Fairley
The food was good. The bartender could have been friendlier but the drinks were good.
Rey Smith
The food was delicious! I had the stuffed catfish and shrimp pasta. It was a lot of food at a great price.
I would give 5 stars but the waitress wasn't that good.
Ron Perrin
Awesome service, wait staff didn't concentrate on just there tables, they keep notice of everyone. Never had an Oyster and was told this place had the best. I did get to try a chargrilled one and it wasn't bad. Don't know if I'd order a platter of them. My wife had pecan catfish. It was awesome. I had the shrimp. They were good, but I'm sure there are better choices on the menu. The place was packed and we got in and out in about 1hr15.
Abioye Tela
Beautiful experience and wonderful dish
Ogads Way
Really good.... it doesnt feel like a tourist trap
Rondell Hopkins
Plenty of food great flavors. Took awhile to get seated. Service was great and very attentive. Will be going again. Loved the voodoo balls and crawfish soup.
AJ Hargrove
Fantastic Volcano Crawfish rolls which really are pockets. Delicious appetizer could satisfy you as an entree. Shrimp and pasta was fabulous and LOADED with shrimp. Same with the shrimp pi not. Enough shrimp for two meals. Very impressive and 5 star choices. Love this place. First time here but won't be my last!!! Highly recommend.
Beth Wilks
Went to lunch today with my family and had wonderful meal. My sister and I both got lunch portion of crab cake and pasta with creamy crawfish sauce and it was delicious!! My Dad got soft shelled crab with pasta and same scrumptious sauce. I can’t rave enough how nice everyone was and we said definitely the best meal in a restaurant since covid started! Great job
John Forr
Wonderful food. If you want a great seafood dish eat here. Get there early in the evening or you will wait. The locals love this place. Being early will make parking easier.
Kendra Little
Great place. The food is always good.
Cee Johnsonv
It was wonderful one of the best food I have eaten in are long time
Man 1000
Got there at around 6pm on a Saturday night and it was packed with an hour and twenty minute wait time. The hostess was nice enough to seat us at the bar for immediate seating. If I had cash I would have given her a tip on the way out. I ordered the Voo-Doo Crawfish Rolls, Charbroiled Oysteres and Seafood Gumbeaux which came with a salad, I chose ceasar. Everything tasted great except for the salad, it was tasteless. I definitely will be a return customer. Thanks again to the hostess, I wish I remembered her name...
Zanya Jenkins
This place was recommended and the food was delicious and will definitely come back. Everyone at the table enjoyed their food! Please try the voodoo rolls and the crawfish pasta with carb cake. You will not be disappointed!
Deacon Lawrence C. Houston
If you want good service and great food, this is one of those local spots you must make time to dine in! Each time I have gone I have enjoyed what I have ordered. The atmosphere is casual. You have options to sit inside, at the bar, in the atrium or outside. There is a parking lot and they can accommodate large groups by sitting them in the same area. You might have deal with separate checks because if the separation but it is not a big deal if you go with the flow.
You can also place to go orders.
Check it out! Depending on the day and time you may have a wait but they usually get you seated as quickly as possible.
I will continue to dine there!
Aaron Kramer
Everything was good, gooder, goodest. Oysters BAM smackalackin! Then our entrees were also top notch. Red fish and the swamp pasta was some of the best pasta sauce as a collective whole table decision some of the best we’ve had. Came down here after being refused service from station 6. Super thankful that happened!
JaedaBaby D
Visited today, and I have ZERO compliants. We had the legendary voodoo eggrolls, Blackened Ribeyes with pasta, and a side of fried shrimp. OMG... food PHENOMENAL...our waiter CAMERON was funny, polite, and on point with everything. Even the weather was great... love this place!
Kenneth Lapeyrolerie
My dining experience was awesome and the food was prepared perfectly. The hush puppies were so delicate and tasty. The Video Rolls are a must for anyone that wants to taste the true essence of New Orleans flavor
Nia Thomas
Food is always so consistently delicious!!!
Jerra Gentry
The portions are nice sizes and are sure to get you full. The prices on the menu were very reasonable, and I think that’s why this restaurant is doing so well. I believe when a restaurant has good food, good portions, good prices, and great customer service it will be around a long time, and New Orleans Food and Spirits has been around for 19 years, so that should tell you how superb this restaurant is. I would refer this restaurant to anyone who lives in New Orleans or anyone who is visiting. I believe that this restaurant is truly one of the greatest jewels of New Orleans. I definitely give this restaurant five stars.
Donna Cager
Crawfish rolls were delicious.
Ian Brunette
Hands down one of the BEST restaurants in all of NOLA.
Harold Harris
Large portions of good food!
brandon rousell
I love this place it's the new Copland's to me . Everywhere Copland's feel off new Orleans food gets it right
Christina Spurling
This place is always packed but for a good reason. I’ve been here twice and each time I’ve tried all the orders on the table and they’re always fantastic. My two favorite items have been their fried oysters (out of this world) in the seafood sampler and their crawfish corn soup (brings tears to your eyes). I even got to try their delicious bread pudding (I only ate half of my food so I could enjoy it as a midnight snack ;)) and it was hot and incredible. This is one of my favorite places to eat.
Jeremy Hanna
I have been eating at New Orleans Food & Spirits for years now. They have excellent food and friendly waitstaff. Their Catfish Ponchartrain is my go to dish, but I also love their eggplant dishes. They have an excellent patio for outside dining when the weather is nice.
Randy Pargman
Great food, friendly hospitality. Waitress was kind and patient with our large group, split the check, and had great recommendations. I liked that they had plenty of grilled (not just fried) food options. Grilled stuffed catfish was amazing!
Larry Green
Omg the voodoo egg rolls will definitely have you under a spell. Absolutely one of the best things you will ever eat in this lifetime. Trust me. The first bite and you hear the song "I put a spell on you" playing in your head bite after delicious bite. 😋
Fara St. Elus
Great food... Must try their appetizers voodoo crawfish rolls.
jordan bontemps
When going to the restaurant “New Orleans Food an Spirt” I had an overall great experience. I would give this restaurant a four out of five. The restaurant had amazing service and the waiter was very nice and presentable. The temperature of the restaurant was cold but due to the weather outside being severely hot it was exceptional. The food was very tasteful and delicious. I would recommend everyone to go and try the oysters because they are savory and delicious
Ariel Turner
Really enjoyed their Spinach grilled shrimp salad, especially the fact that there was more shrimps than one can count! 🙌🏽 …
Eddie Garton
Always good food. Great service on this visit as well. The only issue we had was that one guest in our party brought a cake for another in the party. They should have called ahead to make sure this was ok. They didn't, and the restaurant evidently has a policy against cakes. I understand why they have the policy, it was a bummer though.
Arlene Mercadel
The food is superior here! I had the grilled catfish. I felt like they had just went out back to the lake, caught my fish, cleaned and cooked it! I was sooo.....fresh and flaky! The taste was beyond great. The staff and waitress were very cordial. The only thing is the wait for a table is a bit long.....but the food and service makes up for it!
Angelle Ray
I cannot attest to the taste of the food as I didn't order any food, only a drink (I was sick).
The prices are too much for someone like me that's on a budget but my party is from out of town and on vacation and they didn't mind spending a lot of money. I would hope the restaurant can add some more non seafood items to the appetizer menu too.
The waiting area is not very good. Gets congested easily. They may move the podium a bit to adjust.
Also, the server was not the greatest. The table next to us sat a few minutes after us and they received 2 refills on their drinks before I received a refill on my drink plus my friend never got a refill but was too shy to ask.
Victoria Grimes
This is my favorite favorite place to eat. Service is spectacular. The Lady that owns the place is very down to earth and sweet as southern sweet tea. The food is remarkable. This is somewhere everyone needs to experience. Ask for Phillip he will get your right.
Malachi SantaCruz
Last night was my first time there, and I enjoyed the food. The appetizers and Meals were ready in under 20 mins and the service was great, I will be returning
Beverly Rogian
Neither my daughter nor I are seafood lovers but we decided that while we were in NO, we'd step out of our boxes. The food was good. Seth was great. Restaurant was clean. People were nice.
Ryan Legendre
First time here. Would have taken pictures of the food, but it was wiped out before we knew what was going on!
Everything was excellent from the food to the service. The place was very busy, but our waitress was sure to make sure we had everything we needed when she could get away from other tables.
We will definitely return!
Tabatha Ragsdale
This place is AWESOME!!!! Me and two of my others friends ordered completely different dishes and all of them were so delicious. The presentation was beautiful, I had the salmon which was cooked lightly to perfection. If I ever come back to New Orleans, I will differently be stoping by.
Phillip Brown
Food was great and so was the service, I would love to come back again.
Ericka Alschuler
Good food and a lot of it! Pleasant staff. We ate outdoors and didn't have to wait more than 10 minutes for a table even though they were obviously very busy.
Kimberly Weaver
The food was good. The fried seafood was a little salty for me, and that is unusual for me. The crawfish rolls and the chagrilled oysters were delicious!!
Carrie Wright
Excellent, Excellent, Excellent!! With the family wonderful dining experience also the food is excellent as well, the char-broiled oysters are to die for. The sweet potato fries are heavenly ,this place is great l have never been disappointed, never! Please stop by and enjoy💛 …
Ahmed
This is the best Restaurant in New Orleans!! Loved their food and also the pricing is fair. There's no any other restaurant I could compare it to. I am regretting why I didn't eat from here my entire time in New Orleans. I'd definitely go there the next time I visit NOLA.
Look no further. Give this restaurant a try! Am sure you'll like it!
Mary Haushahn
Owner comes out & greets customers. Servers are very courtesy & aim to please. Food portions are extremely generous. So much food, that one has a meal to take home:-) :-)
leslie hughes
Absolutely a must try! Food is always spot on, you can’t ever go wrong. Everything is absolutely delicious. Awesome gumbo, one of the best shrimp poboys served with the best cocktail sauce. For visitors, this place is located near the lakefront area called Bucktown. It’s about a 15 minute drive outside of the French Quarter. You will leave very satisfied. We order pretty much every weekend from there and the place is always packed! So come hungry but pack some patience .
Pete Daley
Great atmosphere, service was great, fast and efficient. Had four of eating there, soft shell crab, egg plant, crab cakes, and red fish. All were amazing. Just under $100 for all. Before tip. Will be back to try more when back in town.
Edward Turner
This was a great restaurant. Crawfish and corn soup tasted great but had multiple Crawfish in every bite. Oyster player was perfectly cooked and tasty. Fried fish was also perfect. Our server was so very busy but still frequently checked in us and made sure we had what we needed.
Brian Martinenza
This is a spot far out of the French quarter but the quality of the food stands up against any place... the portions are immense and the menu was very authentic. The recommendations by our server were spot on. The corn crawfish chowder was creamy and delightful. The shrimp stew was rich and filling. I loved the raw oysters.. big and fresh just as you expect. Ice cold draft beers and no complaints!
Esther Niebel
Ordered oysters Florentine, they were good.
Ordered ‘swamp pasta’ (shrimp with angel hair pasta), 1st - not fresh shrimp. 2nd - tasted very much like either the shrimp was freezer-burnt or like it had been frozen, thawed, and refrozen multiple times; had the consistency of a mealy apple. 3rd - for $14 most definitely not worth it. Very disappointed.
Would not recommend. Will not go back.
Shawanda Johnson
Excellent food and great service
Ryan Donelson
A true New Orleans restaurant. My girlfriend and I went Friday after Thanksgiving. I had the blacked redfish with pasta topped with Pontchartrain sauce. That was very good and girlfriend had the the charbroiled oysters those were also very good. For appetizer we had spinach and artichoke dip which was the best we've had.
Emma Duplantis
I’ve lived in NOLA for 40+ years and I’ve never had hush puppies that were so delicious. We had a group of 10 eating and we all were raving about them.
* And the Voodoo crawfish Rolls appetizer was to die for. I’m getting that for my meal next time.
- Those 2 food items are worth going for alone.
Everyone was very happy with their food. Fried seafood was good and plentiful.
Richard Anderson
The food was delicious especially the voodoo rolls
Honest Foodie
Everytime we go, there is a wait because it's so busy but it seems to go by quickly. just make friends because it goes by faster, the food is impeccable. Well worth a trip every time and you can not beat the prices and quick service and it doesn't feel rushed! I am a foodie and when someone says it doesn't taste Cajun I think that's hilarious because some cook very heartily and others cook soupy or thick or whatever but it doesn't mean it's not all good or good at all, flavor is where it's at and no one restaurant will have all their food taste good, it's all in how you like it..
here's a good tip: just do appetizers the first time you go to a restaurant so you can sample how they fry, grill, or flavor with sauces and you might get better experiences; buffet style with friends and family (try each other's food) 😁

This is probably my favorite restaurant in town. If you're going to splurge, this is the place to go. I was immediately greeted by the incredible aroma and friendly staff, who was welcoming and unfailingly polite. I was amazed at the speed of service. The ambiance is nice, the food is to die for. Credit to the Chef(s). At different times the staff was efficient and helpful. The service I received was prompt. Customers are provided with affordable prices and fast service. Keith who worked the bar, took my order, he was genuinely friendly, attentive and funny. He was obviously committed to ensuring that I would be satisfied with his assistance and my experience with New Orleans Food & Spirits Restuarant. I couldn't have been more pleased. I can confirm that New Orleans Food & Spirits Restaurant is committed to providing each customer with the highest caliber of customer service, and budget-friendly prices, an act that demonstrates a genuine desire to satisfy, if not delight, a customer. I highly recommend Spirits Restaurant.

Went there Saturday night for dinner I had the blacken Ribeye and angle hair pasta, the steak was cook perfect. I will definitely be back when I visit New Orleans again.
La Toya Cargo
My husband took me and my mother-in-law out for lunch today. The food was great, however, waitress Julie S took it upon herself to add gratuity.
We always review the charges to make sure they're correct (not over or under charged) and we leave a hefty tip.
On the menu, it states 18% will be added to parties of 5 or more. Judy stated 15% is added on weekends and holidays (no signs are posted). After asking for a manager, Julie S. Offered to take the gratuities she added off.
Julie S. also added gratuities to the party of 2 sitting next to us. There's no telling how many other people she scammed.
My husband spoke with the manager who confirmed gratuities are only added to parties of 5 or more.
Please pay attention to your checks before paying as there could be someone skimming.

Everything was good and hot love my oysters

Everything was so good, waiter took care of us. Will be back!!!!!! Parking is a little crazy.
Tabitha Guidry
Went there this past weekend to celebrate my hubby's birthday. It was very crowded and we had a party of 12, so we had a bit of a wait. Fortunately, the weather was nice and we enjoyed the courtyard for a while. Once we were seated, our waitress (I wish I could remember her name) was SO sweet and patient with us and was very attentive the whole time. Everything was EXCELLENT - from the drinks to the appetizers to the main courses. I HIGHLY recommend the Crab Cakes w/the Pasta (YUMMY!). Definitely worth a little wait if you have one!
Victor Martinez Jr
Great experience! Pleasant atmosphere. I had the grill Florentino oysters. It was awesome. And found a small pearl. How great is that?
Sonya
WOW this place is wonderful! Right on the front of Lake Pontchartrain, you first walk into an embellished courtyard with a large fountain and string lights. Inside they were decorated for the holidays, which also added a nice ambience. It's not formal, yet not overly casual. Our service was polite, attentive, friendly. As for the food: the pecan-crusted trout special was unbelievably decadent and delicious (please put in on the menu full time!!), the boiled shrimp salad light and yet still so flavorful, even their sweet potato fries were crisped to perfection - what an incredible experience. We will be back
Bentley Early
Can't go wrong here. Great food and atmosphere, had the white beans and catfish. My regular is the grilled stuffed catfish, one is plenty for one meal.
Macy Lagarde
New Orleans' best kept secret. We've never been to a restaurant where everything tastes so great. Rocky (our waitress) was above exceptional. 10/10 would recommend. Make it your next visit!
artmanhal
I really like this restaurant. Our group of eight [ we graduated from high school together ] had a great time. Our server was one of the nicest ever... so friendly and thorough. I've never had a meal here that wasn't reeeeeally good. Nice! :-)
Tameka Jackson
Oh my goodness!! The food here was so good. I was a member in a party of 13 and the hour wait was well worth it! Our waitress was wonderful as well. I hate that I forgot her name, but she was very attentive.
Ashley S
Get here now! The voodoo rolls are the best thing you will eat! This restaurant is owned by a mother and daughter who both still work here and they are fabulous! Every time we come to New Orleans we stop here for lunch. Love this place!
Ricky S
Excellent food & service. They pile on the food too. Seafood sampler (shrimp, fish, & oysers); no way you're going to eat it all. Voodoo crawfish rolls to start with are really good. Most tables have an order of these rolls. Been back many times and going back many times.
Shawn K
This is a tough love statement. We go here all the time but have had to stop ordering the fried shrimp, which used to be our go-to. Over the past year or so, they overcook them to the point of bring dry and chewy. Sad to ruin those delicious shrimp! I hope they read this and fix that! Love everything else there.
Elisabet Alfonso
If you're a big fan of fried seafood, this is the place for you. However, if you prefer boiled seafood like I do, you may want to check out some other places in the New Orleans area. Overall, good quality and not bad prices.

Brad provided amazing service for our family. He was attentive to our needs, prompt and provided old school genuine customer service. He made our trip here wonderful. Thanks for your hard work and dedication! You are the last of a dying breed in customer service. FYI I'm providing feedback on my wife's google due to breaking my phone. Thank you sir

Ate lunch here today. Food okay, but not as good as it should be considering the cost. Char grilled oysters were good, but the mashed potatoes that came with my fish were not. Didn't receive very good service from our server either.

I akways enjoy this place, the food is always tasty and cooked well. Ordered for pickup! They told me 30 minutes. I arrive at about 15, go in and pay, proceed to wait outside. I see several orders sitting on the takeout table and go in to see if mine is ready! They say no, and say they will call out my name when it comes out. Mind you, they have not called anyone's name for takeout. 5 min later I go in again and see my ticket! When I let the gentleman know my name, he says "Oh it just came out" Its annoying that they let your food sit!

Went here for family dinner visiting my brother who lives in new orleans. We all tried a little something different to sample the food. It was all amazing. Redfish, tuna, crab cakes, swamp pasta and fried shrimp and fried catfish, all of it was awesome! Large portions! You wont be disappointed!! Service was great as well. We went on a Thursday and our food was out in 15 min!

Food is hot and fresh Everytime.make sure you get the Voodo Eggrolls😋YUMMY!! …
Candice Gatlin
This is one of my hubby's and I favorite date night restaurant!! We love the location on the lake! The food is good and the atmosphere is nice also! Not to mention the price isn't too bad😉 We sit outside near the water fountain that's lit up at night! …

If you're looking for tasty and plentiful New Orleans food with a home cooked feel then THIS IS THE PLACE TO GO! The portion size of the food is good. You will mostly likely need a to go box. There's a half and half lunch special. I usually get a cup of their delicious seafood gumbo and a grilled chicken salad. The salad is half sized but is still a good size with plenty of chicken. Their homemade ranch dressing is really good as well. They also have a full sized bar where they offer a variety of flavorful libations! A relaxed atmosphere and friendly service makes this place a go to for lunch or dinner.
Christina Silva
Best Creole food in New Orleans! Full Bar with Abita Amber, blue Moon on tap, the Gumbo is the real deal. Voodoo Crawfish ad a starter is a must. The staff is friendly, and attentive. As a NOLA native this restaurant is on my “have to stop and eat list”. Been coming here for years and will continue to visit when I come home.
Darlene Ina
Love this place, there is Nothing on the menu that's bad or don't taste good, Grilled Oyster is My FAVORITE
Judy Mohamed
Love this restaurant usually go to the Westbank location but they closed early on Sunday. We drove all the way to Lake Ave location. Food of course was perfect service was soooo dry.
Walked in door stood to be seated. Young man passed us 4 times before acknowledging we were there . We were seated by the entrance area with window liked the area. Every single young msn working never cracked a smile as I watched them with every table they were so dry. Some waiters were better my guy never once picked up our empty plates and had to ask for drink refill. Just two of us normally tip better but left him $5.
Jo Jackson
💯% One of, if not my favorite eating spots!
I tried the Shrimp & Corn Soup and it was to live for!
I'll be sure to take pictures next time.
You can't make a bad choice from the menu. My sister loves there Virgin Strawberry Daiquiri. She always orders one when we go there.
The Spinach Salad with Srimps🤩 is another one of my favorites.
This is definitely a place to put on your list to visit.
You can get broiled , grilled or fried meats. Steaks, Seafood, or Chicken, even Charboiled Oysters🥰.
Enjoy and give thanks to the, LORD above!

The food was very good,service great.
CELESTE CARTER
Such an enjoyable place with great food! I invited a co-worker visiting to join me and she loved her fish tacos. She talks about them so much. I had the crab cake w the pasta. So delicious!
Lisa Barnes
Food was good but you have to make sure you are not over looking customers have them waiting and waiting while others are being served who came in after them, ordered the same appetizer and who have the same waiter and waitress
K Makle
I was told by locals that this is a must place to dine. I must say, they were right. The place was busy. We sat at the bar, so no wait. Ordered the crawl fish rolls and crab cake with crawl fish sauce over angel hair pasta. All tasty!
Mary Mitchell
This is our go to place to eat seafood whenever we go to New Orleans. The food is delicious and there is a lot of it. I love their oysters and my husband loves their shrimp. We love it so much that when he got his doctorate degree we took the whole family that came to the ceremony to New Orleans Food and Spirits to celebrate. It is a noisy place but after a while you get over it and join right in.
Nita Taylor
This was my second visit, first time they were to crowded and real New Orleanians don't like to wait a long time to eat. Second visit we had to wait but just for a table to be cleaned. I am on a 40 day fast with family so my daughter and I only had gumbo without rice. Very good. Celebrating my spouse's birthday so he had a huge martini. Oysters and fish. He didn't bring home a doggie bag, so he was happy. My grandkids said their appetizers and meal was good and they enjoy their surroundings.
Jim Schneider
Great Cajun! Had their “special” catfish and veggies on rice, with gumbo, rings, and hush puppies on the side. Outstanding! Pretty darned crowded over a Wednesday lunch, so get there early.
Danielle E
The wait was EXTREMELY LONG,but they do have a good system for that. For critiques I usually order a burger, wherever I go, always well done. The burger was completely burnt on the outside,so the char flavor completely overwhelmed my palate. The bread was also way to soft, and was falling apart after the first bite. The fries were good, but the only reason I'm giving this place 4 stars is the seafood. It is fresh and delicious, I kinda regret not ordering a fried seafood plate, and the corn crawfish soup is to die for. Gumbo-not so much. All in all I'd probably come here again, for the seafood.
Jessie Whiteaker
Love the food hands down best in the city
megan troxler
The food was great besides the honey mustard with the crawfish rolls yuck! I was expecting a Cajun sauce ! Plenty of shrimp on the shrimp platter and the kids meal is plentiful as well! Service is slow and they are very confused about everything ! The place is kinda old and smells funny! Probably won't be back because it didn't have that wow!!
Carliss Atkins
Food is always good but the server with the blonde ponytail needs to find a job that has nothing to do with customer service
Rick David
Always great food and service. Have to try the grilled oysters
Anetra Rodgers
Yum!!! Great food and great service!
Rachel Phương Lê
It was our first time here and asked what the server recommended. She basically gave us two of the same exact dish!! Lol one with stuffed fish and one without on the same creamy shrimp pasta. These were big portions and we were getting really sick of the heavy creamy taste. It's like when you go to an Italian restaurant and asked for their recommendation of their two popular dishes and they bring out two giant things of Alfredo but one with chicken in it lol. Hush puppies were okay, kind of dry.
Darrian Campbell
Great seafood. They are a little higher than average in pricing but it's certainly worth it when done correctly. I ordered the oyster platter with no complaints. Popular place that stays busy. Would recommend
malcolm wilson
great food. wait was pretty long, but it was understandable, given a few universities had graduation earlier that day. the wait was with it; really enjoyed the meal! as others stated, voodoo rolls are really good and the stuffed shrimp was amazing...
Henrietta Young
Food is delicious. Both times I'm been there. I gave it 4 stars because the front desk lady was far from welcoming. She needs to warm up a little. I would definitely go there again.
Dwenda Charles
Best food in town!! Charbroiled oysters can't be beat! Had to go there as soon as I got in town😊
Kelly Snyder
Advice for tourists who have done the French Quarter thing already, spend a weekend dining in the Bucktown/Lakefront area. New Orleans Food and Spirits delivers high quality and consistency in providing a Nola dining experience. Not only great seafood, but they do traditional New Orleans dishes very well. Also they have a board full of specials every day. Only problem is deciding what to get! Great service, casual environment.
John Handrick
Best gumbo ive have had in a while. Great roux! You won't leave hungry!
Matthew Person
They know how to put out good food. Stuffed artichoke was good start. Then the pecan trout and fried oyster salad that had 2 dozen oysters on it. Good atmosphere sitting in glass room on this cold afternoon.
RDK1202
Amazing and delicious. This was my first time in a restaurant since last may. I had the crab cake pontchartrain. It was so rich, creamy, and just the perfect 1st restaurant visit since COVID
linda augustine
Would have rated higher it was a birthday celebration for a relative but they did not allow to serve cake indoors
Shahidah Payton
Always consistent and on point. Voodoo rolls are a must. Gumbo is the best. Blackened shrimp pasta, delicious and loads of shrimp. I always get a side of fried shrimp. Service is always great. If you haven't been here, you must go
Donna McCrackin
THE BEST FOOD EXPERIENCE OF NEW ORLEANS YET EVERYTHING IS SO GOOD THAT THE AROMA OF THE FOOD ONCE YOU GET READY TO PUT IT IN YOUR MOUTH TOUCHES THE REST OF YOUR BODY AND YOU FEEL SO GOOD IT'S A COMFORT FOOD WITHIN ITSELF ❣️❣️❣️LOVED IT ❣️...
THE PATRONS WERE VERY CORDIAL BUT THE WORK STAFF WORKED GREAT AND THE COOKS 😘💞💞💞I FELT....HAVE GOT TO BE THE BEST❣️...

Great food, good service but the environment spoiled my experience with the kind of people the let in. Sad a great place going south. Will never come back 😪 …
Boss Deva
The food was so good and the staff was very friendly and attentative
Kacy Thomas
Ambiance and spirits are nice. The food is usually great. This time my shrimp tasted like they were left in the fryer just a little too long. Over all, a nice experience
Aisha Hodge-Jackson
Food and service were great. Seriously loved the Hurricane Katrina... Though they probably need to put a one-per-person limit on them because it is STRONG. Will return on my next visit to NOLA.
Fatima Muse
Always a winner! Corn and crawfish bisque is outstanding! The voodoo rolls are always a party in your mouth. The only complaint I have is that when you order a "dressed" poboy, it doesn't come prepared. You have to build it yourself. That was super annoying. But hands down if you're liking for good food, this is your place!
J Mickel
The food and the atmosphere was wonderful. A must try are the voodoo crawfish rolls. They were the talk of the group. The gumbo wasn't that good but the seafoood was wonderful. Overall, it is a good clean restaurant with good food. You won't be disappointed.
New Baby
Usually I'll rate you guys a the best, but my 44 dollar meal was ruined because someone dropped the whole can of seasoning in my shrimp ball.. I couldn't finish my food because the seasoning raised my blood pressure so high my chest started to hurt... this had never happened but I can't take risk like that. Tell your ppl please be consistent with seasoning salt...I hate to feel this way but u guys most definitely have lost a customer..
Steve F. (Widow's Son)
WOW!! I had the Hawaiian Salmon and the bread pudding! Both were beyond delicious!!! The staff told me that I would be impressed, and I am.!!!!!
Simon Prescott
Oh my goodness the swamp pasta is amazing!!
Friendly staff. Good atmosphere. Close to a nice board walk
John Buczek
Dropped by on a recommendation and they were so right. Everything was excellent.
Started off with Voodoo rolls. Next time I want a plate that I don't have to share. So flavorful.
Also shared some chargrilled oysters. Also good.
I got the Catfish Loozianne with the Crawfish Corn Soup.
Holy carp the soup is SO GOOD! I am not normally a soup fan but this creamy one blew me away.
The Catfish Loozianne and crawfish stew really worked well on rice. Nice bite on the stew added some great flavor.
Karina Simon
I went a little after they open. It was not busy but surely got busy soon after. I had the famous vadoo rolls and the rib eye that came with a side of the shrimp fayette (I think that's what it's called lol). The vadoo rolls was good. I love cheese but it was a little too cheesy for me, the other flavors like the crawfish and whatever else got lost in it. So it tasted like fried cheese in an egg roll. The rib eye was cooked beautifully. It was indeed a very big portion but there is fat on it and the waiter was kind enough to let me know. It was paired with a loaded bake potato instead of the angel hair pasta (I had angel hair pasta the night before)...the shrimp fayette didn't really amaze me so I did not eat it. It's like a shrimp tossed in a lighter concoction similar to an alfredo sauce.
THOMAS Garner
Nice atmosphere great food, very popular eating place stayed crowded and there will be a waiting time, I waited 1hour and one person told she's been waiting 2 hours.
Joe Omojola
The food is good. The waiter is very good too. It's not easy to find parking on a Friday night. Once we were seated, the noice level was very high because the place was jam-packed.
Laura Alvarez
Ketonian Review: They have a few low carb choices but not many high fat items. I had blackened catfish with a salad. I also had sweet potato fries however they were the kind that has a tiny bit of breading so I only ate a few.
Regular Review: Great seafood, decent prices, and lovely decor. Be prepared to park a little ways away, possibly there was more parking in the back. Decent wine.
Milton Legendre
Met family here, they did a great job with service for our get together. The food was terrific, I can see why my cousin love's this place.
Vanessa Stanley
The food is awesome and trust, we've pretty much tried most of what's on the menu. Check it out for yourself, you won't be disappointed. N.C residents.
Ms. E
The food was delicious and the setting is really nice! There is an inside and outside dinning area and the servers were very friendly and added to the good experience. Will be going again!
john rose
Best seafood in the Big Easy! The crab rolls are unsurpassed. Best fried catfish I have ever had and that includes Mama's! Family owned - great experience!
Kenneth Washington
Amazing food and good vibes.. Our Waiter Brad went above and beyond.. We were very satisfied.. Definitely a weekly spot to go to.
Miles Severe
We enjoyed this spot in Bucktown. The onion rings are great. Wife got the gumbo and I had the Crawfish corn chowder. It was outstanding. The specials that day were the ones on Wednesday both were great. The chicken panceen with Alfredo is a great dish. We also had a couple of blacken shrimp dishes.

This is probably my favorite restaurant in town. If you're going to splurge, this is the place to go. I was immediately greeted by the incredible aroma and friendly staff, who was welcoming and unfailingly polite. I was amazed at the speed of service. The ambiance is nice, the food is to die for. Credit to Food Service behind the scenes. At different times the staff was efficient and helpful. The service I received was prompt. Customers are provided with affordable prices and fast service. An employee by the name Keith( last name) unknown, was working the bar, took my order. He was well spoken and genuinely friendly, attentive and funny. He was obviously committed to ensuring that I would be satisfied with his assistance and my experience with New Orleans Food & Spirits Restuarant. I couldn't have been more pleased. I can confirm that New Orleans Food & Spirits Restaurant is committed to providing each customer with the highest caliber of customer service, and budget-friendly prices, an act that demonstrates a genuine desire to satisfy, if not delight, a customer. I highly recommend Spirits Restaurant.

It was good. We ordered shrimp poboy and a loaded baked potato, the plant tree e of multiple shrimp dishes and the looziane catfish. Everyone enjoyed their meal. Sorry no photos.

What can I say,"The Best Food "in all of Louisiana. The staff are absolutely amazing and very courteous and accommodating. There's no other restaurant in town I prefer to dine at other than New Orleans Food and Spirits.

Looking for an unpretentious N'awlins night out where you can have a decent meal, let your guard down a bit and kick back with friends? Try this place.
Recently, I dined here for the first time. When I first heard the name of the restaurant, my immediate thought was "another ho hum suburbanite fast food joint (eye roll)." How wrong I was.
Located in the Bucktown restaurant corridor and facing the Lake Pontchartrain levee, the first thing you'll notice is that you enter via a side courtyard dominated by a large wrought iron fountain. The second surprise was the the dining room was full on a week night.
Upon being seated, our server appeared in a reasonable time, took our drink order and handed everyone their menus. I was in the mood for shrimp and immediately decided for the Popcorn Shrimp salad.
In spite of being part of a large dinner party, the food was served within a short time and it was more than a meal. Typically, Popcorn Shrimp are small but these were larger than those served on poboys by other local restaurants. Besides being nicely sized, the portion of shrimp was so generous that the full bowl of salad beneath was impossible to see! Apparently, this is common here as oversized quantities of food were heaped on every plate. Naturally, quantity doesn't necessarily equal quality. Nevertheless, the consensus in our party was one of happy satisfaction. Given that the dining room was full, others diners apparently agree. I'll be back.
B Dedmon
One of my favorite NOLA restaurants. You get great food with huge portions for a reasonable price. Service is always great. Just be prepared to wait 45-60 minutes if you go on a weekend!
William Howard
The food in this place makes the time fly..Then wait staff is really good also.
April Greene
Service was blah!! But the blackened catfish with jambalaya was one of the best I have ever had! But I won't be back because of the service. The manager was rude to my friend that wanted to get an entree that wasn't exactly how it came on the menu. *honest opinion* 🤷🏽♀️ …
Jeremy Howard
Always excellent and fresh food. Most times you will have to wait to be seated but it is worth the wait. Crawfish rolls are amazing and I usually get the Redfish Pontchartrain which is a must try. Charbroiled oysters! Now you know!
One Brick - Carlos
Amazing. Everything we had. Charbroiled oysters and the redfish in the pics, but my friend'a dishes were equally good as we all wanted to let each other sample it.
Samantha Fox
Yummy food! Husband had Big Ch-ezy Burger which he really liked and I had Bayou Shrimp Crawfish Pasta which was delicious. Service was ok, but could have been more friendly and smiled. Probably will go back before we leave to get Bayou Pasta again!
Melanie Laster
Great place! Lively atmosphere. Generous, delicious portions. Kind staff. Our group of 7 were treated wonderfully! Thank you for a fun evening!
Nurcelle Reynolds
I always enjoy my food experience at New Orleans Food and Spirits. Great place to dine. Atmosphere is phenomenal. I would recommend this restaurant to in town folk, and people who are just visiting our wonderful city.
Elaisa Tubana
Their food is amazing, I ordered a platter and they filled it with a lot of seafood. Our waiter was very attentive. I would come back again. Good job!
Veronica Jones
It was the best nothing has changed since before Katrina. Staff amazing food the best. We drove 2 hours for good seafood, was not disappointed
Teresa H
Dillion made us feel right at home with excellent care. Will definitely find my way back and to tell friends about this full diamond dining experience
Angelica Urquizo
There were so many choices on their menu we all wanted to try! The prices are well worth it for the amount of food and flavor you get. We were all very happy with our meals!
Heather Doty
Take the extra 15 minutes out of downtown NOLA to eat here. Food was amazing, huge portion sizes, and more affordable than downtown. Pleasantly surprised and super glad our uber driver recommended it.
Amanda Goff
Very busy spot when I was there. Not enough servers for the amount of people. Not enough room in the restaurant to walk without bumping into people as you're trying to go to the restroom and leave. Food was ok. Not sure that I will go back since I was farther away from town than expected and it wasn't as good as the other food I've had in the area.
David Rank
Food was great, service was great, drinks were great! Kelly did a tremendous job and even went above and beyond. If I'm ever back in the area, I will be sure to make time to go here again!
VideoGuy35
This place came highly recommended by a local so we stopped in. Loved the atmosphere and the food was tremendous. The portions were very big and 3 of our group of four had some left to take home.
Brittney Benson
My family and I absolutely love this place! There is nothing on the menu that is not wonderful. Voodoo rolls and gumbo are amazing, and you will be amazed at the amount of shrimp on any of their sheimp dishes. Definitely a must try!!!
Red Holiday
Same great taste but this location seems to serve less food portion than the other location. The amount was redicously small I usually always leave with a to go bag, at this location you can eat your whole plate in less than a minute. Service was good though.
dot mckennie
OMGoodness! The Voo-doo crawfish rolls, hush puppies, and crawfish corn soup... Just made my tastebuds dance. First time there and not my last. It is certainly a spot I will take my family and friends. The atmosphere was noisey busy and I like that. It is a place you can take your entire family. It rained the Sunday I went so I didn't get the chance to sit outside court. It was crowded so parking is scarce but while I waited for the rain to ease up people were leaving as quickly as they were going in. I had salmon with pasta.... Delish!
Tam Kam
Food is always tasty and quick. The hurrucane drink was strong and good
D'Juan Mansfield
Just about everything is good here. Voodoo rolls are popular and the stuffed eggplant is very good and filling. Of course you can't go wrong with the chargrilled oysters and fried seafood. Truly a local favorite.
Sandra Martin
The food is delicious. Large portions and attentive staff. The voodoo rolls are to die for. One of my favorite restaurants.
Ryan Robin
I'm from the Acadiana area of Louisiana the true blue swamp people Cajun area and if you want Cajun food and are in the greater New Orleans area CHECK OUT THIS SPOT as authentic as anything we got in cajunland if not better
Cheryl Holtzclaw
While visiting from out-of-state for Mardi Gras 2020, New Orleans Food and Spirits was recommended to us by a local and it was an excellent suggestion. Located in a neighborhood near some of Louisiana's infamous levees, the decor was nothing to scream about but the food speaks for itself. The restaurant was packed, the service was good, the drinks were great and the food was awesome. If I lived near here, New Orleans Food and Spirits would definitely be a regular place to visit and if I ever go back, I will make it a point to stop by again!
Dawn Howell
The food was great service not do much. Drinks were watered down. When asked to re do the drink, she rolled her eyes. Then she gave it to the bar tender he tasted it and made another one a little better.
Mel Rivera
The voodoo rolls saved this place for us. We have had muffelata all over Nola and this was, by far, not the best we've had. The seafood gumbo was mediocre. The Alfredo was super runny, and the shrimp p.o. boy was super dry and bland. Did i mention premade hurricane that they charge 13 bucks a piece for? And they taste super bitter and separated? Wouldn't waste my time with the prices here and sub par food. Just go next door to R & O much better food and service for the money.
Dominic Fayard
I ordered The Blackened Shrimp Pasta. Too many shrimp, but I could see people who love shrimp excessively liking it.
Also, not a great place to have a surprise birthday party. (See picture)
Evelyn Major
The food was filling. The insides a bit cramped so I recommend sitting outside if its warm. The. Outside area is beautiful and serene.The cuisine is mostly if not all seafood though. The servers are nice and willing to serve.
Symple_ Man
My go-to spot whenever friends or family come to town and want seafood and a beer. They have two locations. Bucktown and Covington. Both are fantastic. Clean dining room, great food, great service, huge portions
Highly recommend
Lauretta Robinson
Delicious grilled oysters. They use local fish vs Asian imported fish. Great food and great service
Destiny Anete
Because this place was so amazing I just had to write a review. I came in town for the weekend and literally ate there everyday. I had the stuff catfish and next day had the oyster plate with the voodoo rolls DELICIOUS!
Billy Pearson
Stopped in after being recommend by my co-workers and enjoyed the stuffed catfish with pasta. Great food and would love to come back.
Ursula Spencer
The food is ALWAYS tasty!!
Barry Faulk
Best oyster poyboy I've ever had! And the onion rings are pretty amazing too. Good selection of beers on tap. There is parking in the back so drive around the block if the front is full.
Andrew Bernard
This was actually my second time there and the food was great the service was awesome and I have some friends in Atlanta so when they come down I will be sure to bring them there with no hesitation
Chilon Gaston
This pork chop was so tender I was able to eat it on the first day I got my braces. It was so good and that Hawaiian glaze is delicious!
david gamble
Note that thr 4 star is because 5 is exceptional value for me. The price being a bit high for the product is mostly the loss (really a 9 of ten is more accurate. The food is great. I've been here twice and it's been busy both times. For average price for local seafood and an average-high price for food. I can recomend basically anything Ponchatrain or Looziane.
Angela Chalk
Food and service are ALWAYS the best. Excellent value for portions received. I've never had anything bad at this restaurant. My biggest problem is making a meal selection
Tierra Warrick
Portions are huge, food is great, not too pricey. Customer service was awesome. I enjoyed the atmosphere. I definitely reccomend the voodoo rolls. It is a shareable appetizer

Illiviea Galle
My family and I enjoyed our food. I would recommend to anyone looking for good seafood. We will revisit again. Delicious!
alaine slater
Great lunch with friends. Onion rings are fantastic. Pecan catfish and garlic potatoes were delish. Chargrilled oysters were a hit with all who partook. Fried shrimp were plump and juicy.
Kandas
Love the atmosphere, staff & cuisine every time we come here. Prices are always reasonable. I had fried oysters for the first time kind of amazing!
Shawniece QB
Voodoo rolls are always a good choice. Corn and crawfish bisque was delish! I won't order the catfish Lafayette again. I didn't like the sauce. The fried catfish was good though! Service was great!
ashley cross
Hawaiian salmon and garlic mash... cleaned my plate!
