While visiting New Orleans, we found ourselves at Red Dog Diner and were glad we did. The menu had…read moreplenty of unique options, making it tough to decide what to order. It's always nice to find a place that offers a little something different instead of the usual tourist fare. I went with the Shrimp Carbonara, and the portion size was impressive. The dish was loaded with large, juicy shrimp and packed with flavor. It was one of those meals that looks great when it arrives and somehow tastes even better once you dig in. The service was quick, friendly, and kept everything moving smoothly, which was appreciated after a day of exploring. My only minor critique--and this is purely personal preference--would be that I would have preferred the shrimp tails removed. It certainly didn't take away from the meal, though. In fact, it led to one of the funniest moments of the trip when I squeezed a tail to remove it and accidentally launched it across the table toward one of my buddies. Thankfully, my aim was terrible, but the table got a good laugh out of it. Great food, generous portions, fast service, and a fun atmosphere. If you're looking for a solid meal while in New Orleans, Red Dog Diner is definitely worth a visit.

It's a very popular quick meal. We enjoy it.

My sisters and I visited Brown Butter Depot on Saturday, and I can't say enough great things about…read morethis restaurant! From the moment we arrived, the food, service, and ambiance were absolutely outstanding. The staff was incredibly attentive, making us feel welcome throughout our meal. The portions are generous one of my sisters ordered a salad that was so large she had plenty left to take home for her husband. My other sister ordered the breakfast croissant, and I had the smash burger, which practically melted in my mouth. Of course, we had to save room for dessert! We shared the vanilla bean crème brûlée and the beignet fries, and both were absolutely delicious. If you enjoy a good cocktail, you'll love their drink menu too the cocktails are amazing, and the prices are just as impressive. What really set this restaurant apart, though, was the customer service. I had a small issue with my debit card, and the owner personally called me afterward to make sure everything had been taken care of. That level of care and attention is rare and speaks volumes about how much they value their customers. Brown Butter Depot has definitely earned a spot on my list of repeat visits. If you're visiting New Orleans, don't miss this hidden gem in Gretna. I gave them five stars, but honestly, they deserve ten!

Bacon Cheddar Burger with pimento cheese- meeehhh!!! Short Ribs with mash potatoes----my new favorite meal Kimchi wings - the kimchi was in the side. The his is a small establishment with outside seating. I enjoyed myself ALL three times. The bartender is my fave. She's so patience and has a pleasant attitude.

As a local, Joey K's is one of those places that reminds me why I love New Orleans food…read more We had the fried green tomatoes, Eggplant Napoleon pasta, and the hamburger steak with green beans and mac and cheese. Every single thing was a star. One of the things I love about NOLA is you can get a crawfish cream sauce at five different places, every one of them equally delicious, and somehow none of them taste the same. Joey K's version is exactly why. The eggplant was perfectly crispy on the outside with a tender center, and that crawfish cream sauce tied everything together. The hamburger steak was cooked perfectly and covered in house-made brown gravy that tasted like somebody's grandma still has the recipe. Comfort food done right. The fried green tomatoes might have been my favorite. The batter had an unexpected little hint of sweetness that paired beautifully with the grilled shrimp and remoulade. The French bread came out fresh and exactly what you want with good butter. Service was a hit. The place was spotless as an old school place can be. And I always love seeing the Simon folk art signs on the walls, they're part of the Joey K's experience for me. We cleaned every plate, which tells you everything you need to know. When a table full of locals leaves with nothing but empty plates, that's about the best review you can give.

The interior was spacious and airy, with plenty of colorful artwork and signs all around. There was a Chalkboard with the specials of the day. From the specials menu, I ordered the Voodoo Catfish (full fried filet) with Crawfish Mac and cheese with seasonal vegetable, which was Sweet Peas. I also got a Cup of Jambalaya (half portion). The Catfish was absolutely delicious. It was oh so light, irresistibly crispy, flaky, and well seasoned. Mac and Cheese was satisfyingly cheesy with flavorful crawfish. Sweet Peas were cooked perfectly and just the right consistency with a slight pop of sweetness. Jambalaya had chicken, sausage, and shrimp. The dish could have used more shrimp and seasoning. Service was solid. Our waitress was welcoming and knew the menu well. Everything was very reasonably priced. I was so full at the end of the meal, I didn't have room for dessert, but would like to try the Blackberry Cobbler.

The food was great, I had the brisket boudin breakfast bowl and an iced chicory coffee, and everything in the bowl tasted so fresh. To finish, I had their nectar cream donut, which was huge and not too sweet. This is our second trip, and we're already planning our next visit whenever we're back in New Orleans.

Pleasantly surprised and lives up to the hype. The French toast biscuit was unique and delicious…read more The donuts are best if you can get them super fresh. The glazed donut was amazing because it was warm. The chocolate frosted was good but not great - the bottom isn't glazed and it was dense. The smoked Gouda grits were delicious - very heavy for breakfast but worth it. The matcha latte was disappointing. It was lower end matcha and not a proper proportion to the oat milk.

Burger Nerds makes a VERY crisp and crunchy smashburger style here which I'm not a big fan of but…read moremany people seem to love it. It is an alright burger but just not the style I prefer.

Hey Yelp moderators stop deleting my reviews over ridiculous accusations that I posted the same experience to multiple reviews. I very clearly have pictures for very different locations proving I was at different locations. The food is the same at the locations and my review of the food is the same for those locations.

I am very disappointed with the way I was treated at Burger Nerds. This was only my second time…read morevisiting because my mom likes to support this business, so I decided to give them another try. The first time I came, I was told that if I bought the fries, the drink came with it. On my second visit, I simply asked about that because I remembered what I had been told before. I wasn't asking for anything free--I was only trying to understand my order. Instead of politely explaining it, the owner spoke to me in a rude, disrespectful, and degrading way. I was made to feel like I was trying to get over on them or asking for a handout, which was never the case. I paid for my food and only asked a simple question. What hurt me the most was the way I was talked to. I left feeling embarrassed, disrespected, and honestly wondering if I was treated that way because of my race. I can't say that was the reason, but that's how the interaction made me feel. Customer service is about treating people with respect, especially when they're supporting your business. Unfortunately, because of how I was treated, I won't be returning. I hope no other customer has to experience what I did.

Absolutely love this bar! Just went for my first time the other day, but i'll definitely be back…read more Spinning records and low lighting makes for a really great vibe and date spot. I honestly would probably enjoy coming here by myself as well. The burger and hush puppies are to diee for AND they were serving up my favorite oysters-- murder points. They didn't serve them with crackers, but I also didn't ask for any-- they did have a delicious vinaigrette shallot mixture to put on top though. On top of all that delicious food, Alex provided exceptional service and made some amazing drinks. I tried the fig old-fashioned and I highly recommend. My friend had the gin and tonic, which was also really good and very refreshing. I can't wait to come back, try more tasty foods/drinks, and enjoy the lovely atmosphere.

To start, this is not in a location I would ever have made it too without a Groupon. But I will be back! It's deep into an industrial area of Gretna facing the levee. It's not picturesque, but the interior (from what I could see through the window as they are closed for now due to Covid) looks like a fun, spacious almost retro dining area. We found the order window and rang the bell for service. One woman is handling orders and she gave us the option to call in to avoid standing in the rain but we gave our orders at the window. A lil poppa, big poppa and large potato wedges with honey bbq sauce ( DONT GET THE LARGE, it's craziness, small is plenty for two). The service was fast and we ate at the picnic benches under the over hang. Burgers were well seasoned and appropriately sized for the price/description). Good toppings, sauce and buns. I would love to try the onion rings, chicken and waffles and chicken sandwich. I'm impressed and would recommend this for all burger lovers!! Oh, and that deep fried bacon was perfectly delicious too! The value is there!!

I visited with a friend from Louisiana, who is now living in the DC area. We decided to splurge and try a few things. The Big Poppa Bacon Burger is a must! It's their signature burger. Big, grilled well, flavorful, soft bun, and plentiful bacon. We also sprang for their Louisiana Fried Chicken and Waffles. They did not disappoint. The chicken was tender and juicy and perfectly paired with the sweet waffle. As if we hadn't splurged enough, we ordered the Chocolate Peanut Butter Shake to wash it all down. This diner does not skimp on ingredients. Definitely a great place to visit and enjoy local fare. The only downside is that dining curbside is in a not so aesthetic area.
