Seafood platter
Janine D.

We shared the platter. It was delicious! Only thing I was not super impressed by was the fried catfish. Maybe it was an off day. But everything else was stellar!! Can't wait to come back!!

Cool spot to enjoy some Cajun cuisine. Prices are reasonable. Food is flavorful. The service was great. Friendly, attentive, and courteous. Only knock is that the crawfish had an overly fishy taste to it compared to most other places. But overall, Nuttin' Betta was great

1lb live crawfish boil Everything boil

I've never been disappointed ordering from here! I haven't dined inside, so I can't comment on the environment, but the food is always leaving me wanting more!

Keisha L.

I was very happy to see this place and the service was great! Food tastes just like back home in Louisiana. Prices were pretty good as well.

Fried Catfish
Renay R.

Listen! If you're missing New Orleans and you miss home, just order the number 1 and get a Catfish Fillet on the side and get yourself some sweet tea or Kool Aid, hands down, can't wait to come back, I don't want to leave this seat and drive home, it's so flavorful and rich, you'll forget you're in San Antonio. I promise you.

The lady at the desk was very helpful and very inviting. I appreciate that. I was sat and served right away. The food is good, good bang for your buck, the food is made at the moment you order. Their fried okra was great, they serve koolaid which was so good. I had a cup of their gumbo and it was also very tasty. Loved coming here, I believe is a family owned and operated and if you're wanting legit Cajun, this is the place for you!

#5 signature special
Jake L.

Went on a Wednesday and the place was buzzing. There were several families dining and it was still kinda quiet which is a really good sign. People happily enjoying their food. The music was really good and I was seated immediately. Though she was busy my server was very kind and helpful. With an hour to close I did not feel rushed which is really cool because this is the kind of food you want to take your time and really savor. The menu was really easy to read and had lots of options and pictures across the top. They do have a wing special on Wednesday and poboys and a selection of boils which all looked very tempting but I opted for the #5 signature special offered as a fried, grilled or blackened. I chose the blackened ( it usually takes a little longer but is really worth it. The set up looks really familiar but I can't place it. I do want to come back and try the gumbo and Bourdain balls but I gave up beef and pork for lent. The atmosphere and wall decorations are friendly and playful, they definitely give the place a New Orleans feel. The seats are set up with booths on oneside, a single long booth seat with a couple of tables joining them on the opposite and standard tables in the middle, they definitely make the most of the space provided. All the food coming out of the kitchen looks pretty good, and I'm looking forward to my plate. Oh my goodness this is delicious. The flavors are well balanced without the blackening seasoning over powering the flavor of the catfish or crawfish. The dirty rice is the best I've had in a long time. I highly recommend this spot if you miss new Orleans or you want to be spoiled for everywhere else. C'est si bon

Once you experience Nuttin Betta, you will keep coming back. And we have. Everything that we have had from their menu has been fantastic.

Services was good the girls were so nice and didn't mind my grandson touching everything lol we had the kool-aid it was soooooo good 10/10 and then we got the sea food platter with fried catfish,shrimp,fried oysters,and crawfish tails everything was really good the side were red beans and rice and Mac and cheese the Mac I give a 5/5 the read beans and rice I give a 8/10 but all in all everything was good

Megan M.

The restaurant wasn't busy when we got there..it was one table with some people. But we couldn't pick a table to sit at. The drinks were self served. We seemed kind of rushed to order food. The red beans and rice was on point! Very flavorful.

Grilled fish and shrimp.
Joan J.

First time here and everything was delicious. The sauce for the seafood boil was so good. Lots of garlic and very seasoned and not overly salty. I went for a healthier option and got my catfish and shrimp grilled instead of fried. Again, lots of flavor and hush puppies had a hint of sweetness. I wished they were closer but will make another trip over this side of town to eat here. Service was great and the ambiance was very casual and a lot of art on the walls that were New Orleans inspired.

Gumbo
Courtney T.

First time visitors and we were thoroughly impressed!!! -Gumbo was HOT!!!! And, I mean "Hey, while it's cooking, can someone spoon out a serving for me" hot! It was full of flavor too. -Hushpuppies have corn in them, which explains the sweetness. -Catfish was seasoned well, but as another post stated, were on the smaller side for an entree. -Fried Shrimp was jumbo with good flavor. -Jambalaya was just OK-a few flakes of chicken & sausage, but 90% rice....but again, it was hot. -Red Beans could've used more pot liquor. Glad it was noted on the menu that it didn't come with sausage because that would've been foul. -Mac & Cheese was not oven baked, kinda like Chick-Fil-A, which was disappointing -Sweet Tea & Kool-Aid were both on point. We'll definitely return!

Catfish & Shrimp with mac n cheese and red beans and rice. My apologies for eating before taking a photo of my food.

Being a New Orleans native like myself we definitely gonna support our own when we find them away from the city. So when i saw he was having a crawfish boil I knew it was gonna be fire. And it did not disappoint. This was easily the best crawfish I had since living in San Antonio. Right spice. Right juiciness. No deads. Nice sized. It was so good I went up after and asked him when he was doing it again. Disappointed to find out he only does it once a year but I know I'll be back every year. And just to get some more cravings out the way I also ordered the bbq shrimp and my son had the chicken and beignets. We both inhaled them. So good. This was my first time to the location here. It's beautiful inside and out. The waitstaff was very attentive considering the large amount of people they were trying to account for. Place was full and there was a catered event going on at the same time. Love NOLA. Will always be a customer and a fan.

Ma Parker prides herself on family, giving people second chances and a decent meal for a reasonable price. Everyone who came in for lunch paid Ma Harper respect and was treated like family. The decor is die-hard NOLA with tons of memorabilia. The booths and chairs are old but the food is made with pride and love. The fried shrimp po-boy, fully dressed on a perfect NOLA roll was a must try. A small side of red beans and rice was also included. The sandwich was packed with crispy fried shrimp, but the normal remoulade sauce was replaced with ketchup / mayo mixture, not savory. The red beans and rice were fine but lacked real flavor. I am glad I gave Ma Harper's Creole Kitchen a chance. Many of the frequent flyers here, obviously love this neighborhood staple. Ma Harper's has a big heart and I wish her continued success. Dining here is more than food, it can also be about love and feeding people. Thanks Ma Harper for a memorable experience.

The menu is exciting and the concept is definitely there--but unfortunately, my dining experience didn't quite live up to it. I ordered the pecan-crusted trout, which had a nice texture but lacked flavor and seasoning. The dirty rice was also underwhelming, with very little depth or seasoning, and the calamari was a bit rubbery. Overall, the food just didn't hit the mark for me. Service was also a bit inconsistent. During dinner, I found myself having to get up to grab my own salt and pepper, as well as my own place setting, which took away from the experience. That said, I did have a much better interaction the day before when my wife and I stopped by for a glass of champagne at the bar--the bartender was lovely and welcoming. On a positive note, the location is beautiful--right along the River Walk, which makes for a great ambiance and setting. I'd consider giving it another try, but hoping for more consistency in both food and service next time.

R&R is part of a hotel and since the weather was really nice, we decide to sit on the outdoor patio facing the river walk. They have a happy hour menu that runs from 3-6 pm and includes beer, wine and liquor specials and 8 small plate food options. I start off with a margarita on the rocks. When it comes out, the drink is good but could've used a bit more lime in the mix but not bad. For food, I go with the fried shrimp and catfish nuggets. When they come out, the plates are larger than expected and both come with fries. This could easily be shared with two or three people. Everything was friend to perfection, crispy on the outside, moist on the inside and seasoned well. The plates were wiped clean. I ordered a house pinot noir and it was a good. I didn't catch the brand name but would order it again. Overall, this was a great first experience at Roam & Range and will look forward to coming back to try more of the menu. Due to it's location, parking can be tricky so prep ahead.

It reminded me of a previous space that now houses a restaurant. It was fairly busy on a Thursday night, reservations were suggested.
