Came here for Mother's Day to check out a new place for us. We were pleased. The food was really…read moregood for a place that seems to cater to music and drinks more than being a restaurant. There was live music and the band sounded good without being too loud. We had the boudin balls for an appetizer. Pretty standard now on most Louisiana menus, but they were done right. And I loved the spicy jelly it came with. A little different than the standard remoulade. For dinner I had the blackened catfish. It was delicious. My mom had the fried seafood platter. She said it was excellent. My kids said their food was great. My 11 year old had the loaded fries. He was not disappointed. The server was great. She was very attentive and friendly.

My wife and I live in Kenner and have been enjoying lunch once a month for many years with another…read morecouple who live on the North Shore. We have our favorites on both sides of the lake, but I recently read some great reviews somewhere online about Crazy Pig Southern Kitchen with locations in both Mandeville and Covington. After speaking with our friends we decided to dine at the Covington location of Crazy Pig Southern Kitchen. Inside the entrance, the restaurant posts their policy that you will not be seated at a table until all parties have arrived, which is understandable considering the huge amount of business they have. My wife and I arrived before our friends who were running a little late. The Hostess, Jill, asked me how many in our party and I told her four, but the other couple was running late and would be arriving in about 20 minutes. We took a seat in the empty waiting area inside the entrance. The restaurant appeared to have only one or two empty tables available inside when I arrived on a beautiful day. Five to ten minutes later the waiting area was full (approx. ten people). The restaurant was extremely noisy with all their customers enjoying their meals and conversing with friends/family. I noticed that there were approximately ten tables located in front of the restaurant in a beautiful covered patio, so I asked Jill if we could have a table outside once our friends arrived in about five more minutes because one of them was somewhat physically handicapped. There was only one empty table in the patio at the time. Jill explained that since she had a reservation in the patio for a party of eight that would be arriving soon, so she had been holding it for another available outside table to put together to accommodate this party. However, she said she would gladly give us the table. By this time, the waiting room was full of people and overflowing outside the entrance. I had given my seat to a lady and stepped outside to wait for my friends, who I noticed had arrived and parking their car. I told Jill and she seated us at the table in the patio. The four of us ordered different things on the menu, which were fantastic. Although the restaurant was packed, the waitress AND Jill visited our table several times to ensure we were enjoying our meals. Crazy Pig Southern Kitchens' ambiance, service, menu items (along with portion sizes) and prices were absolutely astounding. We were all very impressed and grateful for a beautiful dining experience. Special thanks to Jill who was abundantly pleasant to deal with. Crazy Pig Southern Kitchen certainly placed Jill in the right position.

Potato salad was big hunks of potato and no flavor. Hush puppies were pretty good. Fried catfish was thin and tasted good but was strong tasting. Fried Mozzarella was awesome.

For dessert we got the Apertif press!! We got it stuffed with homemade vanilla gelato. It was delicious!! The donut was warm with a cold gelato in the middle!! We will be back to try their cocktails and more!! Our waitress was great and super knowledgeable about the menu and gave great recommendations.

It was out of this world! We will be back soon.

Inside you are greeted with large atrium ceilings maintaining a New Orleans tradition of high ceilings to deal with the hot air.

Every window has a stained glass piece of artwork hanging in it. I ordered their Crab Cakes Benedict from the specials board with Home Fries. Grits are available too. The crab cakes on an English Muffin with the eggs on top was super delicious and very filling to get my day started off right. The home fries were thoroughly cooked; nice and soft. Their orange juice offers two choices, regular and fresh squeezed. Service was excellent! I received prompt, courteous and friendly attention throughout my stay from all of the staff. There is extra parking on the side and in the back.
