So right in the middle of the brunch rush. We were quoted a35 minute wait but was seated sooner. We ordered lunch. I got the chicken pot pie my partner got the bbq bayou burger and we split an order of the crawfish pie with red beans and rice. Both plates were served with a salad. Service was great! Jack was our server. He made some excellent recommendations!! The chicken pot pie had a kick to if so fyi....Everything was delicious!! Turns out we got and order of the boudin pie instead of the crawfish pie but it was delicious! He did bring us out a crawfish pie to try (not pictured) and it was also excellent!! The red beans and rice were the best I've had. And I've done a red beans and rice tour in NOLA and this was the best I've had!! We rounded out our meal with the Eye of the Tiger pie. And holey moley!!! The best finish to our meal!! They also have a great craft beer selection on draft. The only downside to this place is the parking is not great and there are only two bathrooms that are unisex. But heck....I'll be back every time I visit BR!!

There's a…read morelittle bit of everything, and honestly, this is the best spot for fresh raw oysters I've found. Their fresh fish items are among my favorites, but if you want to try fried things, they don't over do the fry like some places. They don't give out a menu for those with allergy sensitivities, but they have at least one very knowledgeable manager who will come out to your table and discuss the various options and ingredients in many of their items. That was helpful as we had some in our group who could be adversely affected. While I don't personally frequent Parrain's, I've always had good experiencing. We recently met up with a friend who was in town craving seafood, so we met up here. Our server was super friendly, but drinks were extremely slow to come out. I was hoping for a predinner drink and then other to pair with my selections, but my first ended up coming after the raw oysters I ordered. Everyone left very satisfied. Some of the suggest sides of our group include the cauliflower and green beans. The gumbo was good - could have used more spice, and i don't care for Tony's or Tobasco, so I didn't get the flavor i wanted. The tuna was a hit, perfectly seared. And the sauteed crab claws were well received. Everyone seemed to have a good experience.
