Fisherman's Cove is a small store where you can purchase fresh lobster, shrimp, crab, oyster and…read moreother seafood. It is so surprising to me that such a small store, with a large assortment of seafood doesn't have any of that overwhelming fish odor. We got 4 lbs of fresh shrimp. This was only $20.00. We peeled and cooked them at home. Fresh shrimp is so much more tender and soft then frozen shrimp, which is the only option in Connecticut. We had a delightful dinner of fresh shrimp, pasta and salad here in New Orleans. If you're in the area and would like to try some fresh seafood, please stop by Fisherman's Cove.

Friendly staff, great food, competitive prices. What more can you ask for?…read more The crawfish were not overly spicy but had a good hint of heat to them. They also had a pretty strong citrus flavor to them as well while not overly acidic. Just the right amount of salt, and served hot. Can't complain much other than the size of the boiled crawfish compared to everywhere else, they were much smaller. Mostly small, some medium sized. A little bit more of a garlic hint in the seasoning would have been nice as well but not enough to knock a star off the rating. Give em a try!

I don't think people know how good this place and I am here to tell them! The seafood is so fresh…read moreand good. They offer a fun fish cutting class by lady mongers that is awesome! It teaches knife skills, safety, and you get to take your fresh fish home and cook a delicious meal with it. They also have a bar inside, of course it is New Orleans, and I got an espresso martini and it was quite good! So great fresh fish and cocktails! The fish class came with two large fish, you got to keep the knife, and learned skills. The lady monger demonstrated on her fish, and then watches you carefully, guiding you to ensure the best technique. There was about 4 people per cutting table and they also required use to wear apron and gloves. Don't feel intimidated because they are right there guiding, ensuring safety. It was a fun unique experience. Even if you know how to gut a fish, you may still learn something new! I have to come back and try some these fresh sandwiches or poboys. There is so much greatness here, you just have to swing by and check it out yourself!

The Good: The Staff was lovely and the Tostada was AMAZING!…read more The Bad: Everything else... Outside of the Tostadas, the food we had was shockingly bad. The fried "Captain's Platter" is $35, it's worth maybe $12. It was 4 shrimp, 4 oysters, and a decent sized piece of fish, all considerably over-fried, with fairly plain coleslaw and hushpuppies that looked like they had been cooking since the shift the day before. --- I honestly couldn't believe this was brought to the table, but it seemed normal so apparently that is how it is served there. It was VERY small and fairly overcooked. The boiled crabs were mush. Decent flavor, not great. Would not recommend. The charbroiled oysters again seemed to have been cooking for 3-4 times longer than they should have. They were rubber, flavorless and unappetizing to look at. They were pretty bad. - At least they were clean. I didn't get any shell. But I also didn't get any oyster in 1 of the 6 oysters served at $18. Then we got a Sausage Poboy. The sausage was decent, but the sandwich wasn't good. WHY WOULD YOU TOAST THE BREAD? NO ONE WANTS SAUSAGE BETWEEN TWO CROUTONS. Just kind of a weird mistake that makes you wonder if anyone there has tried to eat any of their own food. Because it's not easy... Honestly 90% of the food we got there was pretty bad. But we will be back for Tostada alone. That was phenomenal. 10/10 Delicious.

Nice little find while I was in need of some Crawfish…read more The Good: I found the Crawfish to be tasty, nicely seasoned & for this early in the season, quite nice in size. The price was average at $6.99. The Not So Good: The location is dimly lit & a little remote. Additionally, they sell previously frozen Crawfish for $4.99 (wide eyes stare). The pig feet aren't booked in the crab boil/lack the seasoned taste of the Crawfish, fyi. The other seafood didn't look too appealing... I'll pass. Overall: It was an ok place. Stopped me from running all over for Crawfish while in NOLA East; but I'll move around a bit more before I return here.

Salvo's Seafood was another recommendation from a friend, and at this point I think we need to keep…read morelistening to their recommendations because this place was absolutely worth it. This was actually my first real seafood boil experience, and it was my wife's first seafood boil as well, so we really did not know exactly what to expect. Thankfully, we had Jaden as our waitress, and she was amazing from beginning to end. She was attentive, friendly, patient with us, and helped explain everything since we were both new to the whole seafood boil experience. Having someone willing to help you instead of making you feel like you should already know what you are doing makes a huge difference. We went with the all you can eat special, and when that food started hitting the table, we knew we had made the right decision. There was a ton of food with shrimp, snow crab, blue crab, sausage, corn, potatoes and everything covered in some seriously good seasoning. The seasoning was one of my favorite parts because it had plenty of flavor without taking away from the seafood itself. My favorite was definitely the shrimp. I could have kept eating those by themselves. They were seasoned perfectly, had great flavor, and were easily what I kept going back for. Then we tried the charbroiled oysters. I have to say that oysters really are not my thing, so I was not expecting them to be one of the highlights of the meal. I was completely wrong. These were awesome. The charbroiled flavor completely changed it for me, and I actually enjoyed eating them. My wife was impressed too, and that says a lot more than my opinion because she grew up eating oysters in New Zealand. If she says the oysters are good, I am listening! Another thing we really appreciated was that we never felt rushed. We sat there for around an hour and 15 minutes eating, cracking crab legs, trying everything, talking, and just enjoying ourselves. Nobody made us feel like they were waiting for us to leave. Jaden continued checking on us and making sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal. And yes, a seafood boil is messy. By the end of it, you know you have been eating! But that is part of the experience. You are cracking shells, dipping seafood, getting seasoning everywhere and enjoying every minute of it. For someone who would normally say this type of meal is not really my thing, Salvo's completely changed my mind. Great seafood, awesome seasoning, huge portions, a relaxed atmosphere, and excellent service from Jaden made this a great experience for both of us. We will definitely be coming back. Next time I already know where I am starting: bring me the shrimp and those charbroiled oysters!

I wanted to eat here, really I did…read more I was in town last week for work and a coworker and I made the 45 minute drive from where we were staying to Salvo's. Google said they were open, but when we got there, we found out they were closed and on vacation the week before the 4th of July. I'm not really mad about that but there was nothing on their social media about being closed or away that week. I called a couple of times on our drive over and no one answered but the locals we worked with said this place is hopping during dinner time, we just assumed it was really busy and they couldn't get to the phones. A little better communication would have been appreciated, especially in a city where tourism is such an important industry for them. I'm sure the locals who eat there all the time knew they would be closed that week, but us out of towners did not know. So I'll go right in the middle, three stars as I can't really judge them on their food. However I work in a customer facing field too, and communication with your customer base is key. That really bummed me out. Maybe next time.
