    Deep fried deviled eggs
    Jessica M.

    Food was fast, hot, and scrumptious! Service was great too! It's very tiny inside as are most area restaurants here. I'm glad we came when it wasn't busy!

    My family tried bourbon street bistro yesterday. We go there for an early dinner around 4pm. We ordered Louisiana style chickory coffee which was delicious. I ordered the sampler and it was really good. I really liked the Jambalaya. My girlfriend had the oysters and they were very good. I really liked the smoky flavor. My daughter had the pasta. It was thick creamy and delicious as well. I also had some gator bites at the end just for curriousity. They were juicy and delicious. Our bill was about 100 bucks. You should probably expect to spend 20-30 dollars a person. The service was also fast and friendly. Chef Curtis stopped by and checked in on us personally. I highly recommend stopping by and checking it out.

    Crawfish etouffee

    My husband and I visited this Cajun restaurant on 4/3/2026, and while there were some real highlights, the overall experience left us slightly disappointed. To start with the positives: the environment was inviting, upbeat music was playing as we walked in, and the whole place had a lively, welcoming vibe. We saw guests at nearby tables laughing and enjoying themselves, which made us excited for our meal. Unfortunately, things went downhill from there. We waited over 10 minutes before anyone came to take our order, and when our waitress finally arrived, she came across as unfriendly and uninterested in serving us. It set an uncomfortable tone for the rest of the meal. The appetizers, however, were outstanding. The deep‑fried deviled eggs were honestly the best we've ever had -- and we've tried them in several major cities. They were so good my husband is already trying to recreate them at home. The hushpuppy basket was also excellent: piping hot, light, and clearly cooked in clean oil. Those two items alone showed that the kitchen is capable of great things. But then came the biggest disappointment. Our entrees arrived at the exact same time as the appetizers, and both were not served at the correct temperature. I ordered the crawfish étouffée ($28) and expected a rich, warm broth. Instead, the temperature was neither hot nor warm -- just cool enough that the fat in the sauce hadn't even melted together. My husband's jambalaya was the same way. The flavors were good, but the temperature made the dishes unenjoyable. We ended up asking for to‑go containers and decided they'd probably be better reheated for lunch the next day. Overall, the flavor of the food was on point, and the ambience is clearly something the owners have put thought into. I would happily come back again and again for the appetizers alone. I will however pause if I want prompt and attentive service.

    Overcrowded, understaffed, out of many menu items, bland generic approximations of cajun food.

    Wonderful food, service and atmosphere! Definitely feels like authentic NOLA! Recommend the Redfish Pontchartrain!

    Food was excellent, service was fast and friendly. This is definitely one of Charleston's best restaurants.
