    two cups of beer on a table
    Robyn F.

    Good time, every night was lit. Good dj & good drinks. A lot of ppl, most dancing & enjoying themselves. This was one of my fav stops. Bartenders were friendly. Security was inviting, not too intimidating. The bathroom always had a wait & wasn't too clean. Fun experience.

    The music was great and we would have stayed there for most of the night, but the bartenders will scam you. Check your receipts.

    Great food and Margaritas. The service is slow, so be prepared to be patient. It's worth it.

    Stopped by Manning's Spots Bar and Grill on our way back to the hotel after our Saturday…read moretournament, and I'm so glad we did! My daughter is a huge fan of chicken wings--like, she wants to eat them every day --so she was beyond excited when we walked in. We were seated immediately and ordered drinks--me, a much-needed beer, and my daughter, a soda. For food, we went with the lemon pepper wings, nachos, and onion rings. Let me tell you... these wings were . Some of the best I've ever had! Perfectly crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside . I honestly wish we had a place like this back home in Cali. Our waitress was attentive, friendly, and super helpful, and the atmosphere was cozy and welcoming. Definitely a spot we'll be coming back to next time! Highly recommend for wing lovers.

When we walked in the hostess hardly acknowledged us. I asked if we could sit at the bar and she said yes so we walked over. The bar was full so we went back and asked if we could do a table instead. She laughed in our face and looked at us like we were crazy or inconveniencing her. And she was lounging on the bench on her phone, not even behind the counter to greet guests. There were tons of empty tables that hadn't even been cleaned off yet so we just sat at the cleanest one that at least didn't have dishes on it. It took FOREVER for a waitress to even come to us and take our order. After we placed our orders I think our waitress sensed that we were not having a good time so she apologized for the wait and was very kind and pleasant compared to the hostess. I wanted to try the pepper jack boudin egg-rolls. My boyfriend got the fried local shrimp. I did not like the boudin egg-roll. It was fried very hard and I wasn't the biggest fan of the boudin sausage but I wanted to try it because I never had it. You win some you some. I just ended up eating my boyfriend's shrimp because it had taken so long to get our food that the kitchen was basically getting ready to close so I didn't order anything else. Soooo yea. Not my go to choice for a bar. They did have these cool movie theatre style lounge chair in front of the big screen though so that was cool.

Located right at St. Charles & Carrollton on the streetcar line, it's super easy to get to and always buzzing in the best way. The drink options are endless--great cocktails, frozen margaritas, beer by the glass or pitcher, and a huge variety of beers to choose from. TVs are everywhere, making it a perfect spot to catch sporting events, meet up with friends, or just hang out solo. The vibe is low-key, casual, and welcoming--no frills, just a consistently good time. I also love that they're open 11 AM to 1 AM, seven days a week, which is clutch no matter the day or occasion. And finding out they've been around since 1977 just adds to the charm and legacy. If you're looking for great happy hour options, strong cocktails, classic New Orleans eats, and an Uptown spot where you can relax and connect with friends, Cooter Brown's always delivers. Definitely one of those places that never goes out of style. A true NOLA staple.

This will sound weird to say: Walk-On's isn't good, which made it great. Here's what I mean. You aren't coming into Walk-On's for high-end tasting menu cuisine, or beautiful sights, or the kind of people watching you'll get at sexier, hip bars in this or any city. But if you wanna grub and watch a game? I would come to Walk-On's every week if it was near my house. Lots of TVs. Food comes out of the kitchen fast. The mozzarella "logs" are magnificent, and absolutely terrible for you...but not any worse than the doughnut bread pudding, built on actual Krispy Kreme doughnuts, which almost left me with a heart attack. The waffle fries were great every night. (The burger? Not as great.) The prices for a bourbon "double" pour are very fair, much more so than the prices in other cities I hit on a regular basis. The wings, I am told, are solid. There is a general sense that everyone on staff is hustling, based on my three visits there this week, even when the space wasn't that crowded. I will be back for future Jazzfests!

This is an old, full of history building and business. And is very dive bar feeling- until you walk into the back bar- which is old saloon vibes but dead quiet and empty. But the chairs score a million stars for comfort. Absinthe has this feeling behind it- not cold beer and well drinks for cheap let's see how drunk we can get and party... it's an experience. And that experience is lost. Which is really disappointing. I imagined something more than we got. The back bar doesn't serve all the drinks and mainly does the traditional absinthe experience- great- but there's nothing that says that and there's tables and chairs but no one to educate you or offer suggestions. There's the back bartender. It's all very confusing. The back area would be sick with a piano player or acoustic guitar player or even a small jazz band and someone to invite you to experience "absinthe" and more so, traditionally. If you're spending $60+ make it worth it. Inviting. Educating. Alluring. An experience. This wasn't the experience I thought we might get at such a unique, historic spot.

Soon after the reservation was secured, I received emails stating the dress code policy and its strict adherence. Based on these emails and reviews, we were excited to dress up and have a lovely date night and dinner. Boy was I shocked. Imagine my surprise to walk in and see table after table of young guys in shorts and sneakers (a big no no according to the stated policy) and the table immediately next to us were several rowdy and rambunctious guys with backwards ball caps on their heads. Now, if this was the expectation, I would have no objection. But to plan an evening dressed up for the town, then sit next to frat boys. Not what I was expecting, nor would I have booked. On the rooms and atmosphere: we were immediately taken to the back, upstairs section of the restaurant. Not knowing anything about the layout, I was hesitant to ask about this section. Big mistake. We felt as if we were brushed aside and forgotten about. Exceedingly long times between order and delivery. Missed and mistaken orders seemed to be the normal. While the food was ok... it was just that. Ok. So, my recommendation is to avoid this if you think you will have a romantic, civil evening. My suggestion would be to go to Antoine's. I would like to update/ edit this review. When it comes to food, I will say the quality, presentation, and taste is excellent. Well above average. The rather unfortunate atmosphere, the non polished wait staff, and the layout of the restaurant severely diminish the overall rating. I do hope this clarifies the overall critique.
