    Dead roach
    Bill P.

    Disgusting! Dead roaches in the hallway where the bathrooms are. Dirty dishes on the bar. Just nasty. I'll never step foot in this place again.

    My first time ever trying Acme. I ordered the house special oysters, which came with a special sauce and an extra kick. They were very flavorful. For my entree, I ordered the half po-boy half cup of soup/gumbo. I got the crawfish tail po-boy with seafood gumbo. The gumbo was very tasty but only had two shrimp in them. I wish I had gotten the shrimp po-boy. The crawfish tails were so small and slightly overfried. I asked for the mayo on the side but there was a type of yellowish sauce on my sandwich that was pretty good. Service was good considering they were packed. Given the dining room is one big empty space, I could see that everyone received good service. Overall, I enjoyed my first visit and will go back again.

    I wanted to take a moment to share an update. Monique from Acme reached out to me personally to discuss my recent experience. She was both understanding and sincerely apologetic about the situation. Monique went above and beyond to make things right, which to me reflects top-notch customer service. Thank you, Monique -- because of your professionalism and care, I'll definitely be giving Acme another try.

    They've got the best chargrilled oysters in town. Even after I've tried some of the place that others have recommended. It's nice to sit at the bar when it's not too busy and have a dozen. The last time I was there was during Christmas meeting family who were in town. They'd already eaten by the time I arrived so I got a desert with them. Peach Cobble. Wow. It was great. Never heard of it before. My only issue with this place is the acoustics. Love the bar but if you're sitting on the floor everything can get loud and echoey making it hard to talk to the people in your party. This last time we didn't get any of that. We were able to have conversations and were able to hear one another but still keep that in mind. The waitress was very nice cheery and happy, maybe because of the holidays but it made our experience a lot better. My sister's husband got oysters and I can't remember what else but he loves to complain and I didn't hear anything bad about it so that's a good sign. And if you love beer, I remember they used to serve beer in these big giant fishbowl glasses, which I'm sure they still do even though I didn't see any this time around. The bloody Mary's usually hit the spot as well.

    Half Fried Oyster Po-boy with a cup of seafood gumbo
    Libby E.

    We went for lunch at Acme Oyster House. If you sit at a table in the bar area you can see them grilling the oysters. My husband ordered a dozen of Chargrilled oysters. He said they had a good flavor but way too small. Not worth the price. ($29.99) We ordered a crab cake and it was very good. Didn't get the corn with it but the manger stopped by our table and I asked about that. They do sell just the crab cake that comes on a bed of lettuce which is not on the menu. The menu has crab cake with Corn Maque Choux. The manager went get us the Corn to go with our crab cake. I had the half oyster po boy (which comes with lettuce, pickles, tomatoes and mayonnaise) and seafood gumbo. It was delicious.

    Located off the interstate and in a busy shopping area. Parking is normally not an issue. Restaurant is well staffed and clean. My daughter ordered chargrilled oyster. They were very good. I ordered shrimp poboy. It was okay. Nothing special and was very dry By husband had red beans and rice with fried fish. It was good but also nothing special. Oysters as to be expected are the best thing. Everything else is just mediocre.

    Grilled Fish Of The Day

    This was my first time at Acme and I wasn't as impressed as I'd hoped. The oysters were pretty decent but I've had better. The redfish was okay. The veggies literally had no seasoning. Not even salt and pepper. I don't know if I will be coming back :(

    Craw puppies and they were good!
    Scarlett E.

    Stopped in on a late Friday afternoon and immediately greeted and sat. The server was so nice and attentive. We ordered half a dozen raw and charbroiled oysters and I have to say they weren't great. The regular were bland and watery. Probably my least favorite of any I've ever had somewhere. The charbroiled were good but a tad overcooked. Great flavor in those though. Our 2 meals were ok though. We did both enjoy them. Shared a little of both. The butter beans were delicious. We would go back and try more because the ambiance and the service deserve that. Its casual BR vibe makes it feel cozy.

    Came for dinner Sunday with a party of 10, clean restaurant and bathrooms. Delicious food and great service! The crab cake is amazing!

    Half Acme Napkin Roast Beef poboy with sweet potato fries
    Mia L.

    I LOVE Acme and will get it every chance I get. My favorite location is the New Orleans French quarter location but I've visited the Gulf Shores and now the Baton Rouge locations. The food is incredible. Always satisfies. My favorites: 10 napkin roast beef poboy, charbroiled oysters, butter bean plate, fried catfish, boo fries.

Now they are in a much better, but still cozy, space on Government Street. This facility has indoor dining space, patio dining space, and plenty of parking, including a back overflow lot. Anthony's has been in business so long due to authentic Italian cuisine, including a great variety of take out deli items. If you need some real Italian grocery items for your home, there's a good chance you can get them at Anthony's. However, if you would rather let them prepare your meal for you, that's an excellent option as well. I think they have a first rate muffuletta, and it's important to have the right bread and meats for those. This is something they have covered! Their Po-Boys are also my favorites. These are pressed so they are crispy and flattened. I typically like to get these with a small salad, which is indeed an excellent choice. If you have room, there's always some great dessert choices. Another consideration is picking up something to take home for later, I think a tub of high quality imported olives are a good selection. Don't forget their cheeses as well, these can lift your home cooking to a higher level. Next time you are in the Government Street Arts and Entertainment District, drop into Anthony's for a bite, dessert, or take home items. You'll definitely thank yourself later!

I came here with high hopes for an Italian hoagie ("The Italian"). A good Italian hoagie is hard to find in the heart of po-boy country. The meat and cheese on this version is good, but the sandwich is kind of small and a bit dry. The menu says it includes roasted red peppers, but that was missing from my sandwich. It does appear they have a nice variety of bagels. Overall not bad, but I'm still in search of a good Italian hoagie.
