    Oysters!!!
    Yolanda Y.

    Stopped by Seaworthy during our NOLA trip for oysters at happy hour based on a bartender's rec, and it was a great choice! The front of Seaworthy is low-key, but the interior is tasteful and inviting with a lovely courtyard space. The oysters were incredibly fresh and high quality, with beautifully done shucking. We sat at the bar and enjoyed watching the shucker efficiently served our oysters, while carefully checking each and tossing any that weren't absolutely top-notch without hesitation, which really spoke to their commitment to quality. We tried each variety of oysters offered at the time and paired them with local beers on tap. We especially enjoyed the Alabama and Louisiana selections. Fantastic spot for oysters if you're in the area!

    All I have to say is LOBSTER ROLL!!! It hit the mark and then some. I actually can't wait to make a man pay for my next one!!! Our waitress was amazing and attentive but not in a hovering way. I really enjoyed the theatrics that accompanied the Holy Water. So fun! And the oysters (and the cute guy shucking them) were perfect. Oh and that radicchio salad cannot be overlooked. It was incredibly fresh and tossed in the right amount of dressing. Tens all across the board!

    Such an amazing experience! The service, food and ambiance was wonderful. Some friend and I went towards the end of the night. We for the Caviar, a few dishes to share and the frozen key lime pie stole the SHOW! 10/10

    This was our 5th or 6th visit yet 4th time refused to seat us as we requested on our reservation. For an oyster bar they don't seem too interested in seating in the oyster bar area. Seems apparent also since hotel management change so has the menu offerings & interest in service hospitality.

    Seaworthy is always worthy of your time in NOLA. I always stop by when I'm in town. It has reliable service, drinks and food that always satisfies. Oysters are always fresh and perfectly shucked and served with a smile. It was near closing and the staff was very accommodating which was appreciated. Can't wait to visit again

    I love the rustic decor. Seaworthy has a great oyster happy hour and broad raw bar selection. NOLA isn't really known for raw oysters per se, so finding a location that specializes in raw oysters can be tough. Seaworthy checks all the boxes - great selection, good shucking, and knowledgeable staff. If you're lucky enough to dine in during the holidays, explore the seasonal drink menu.

    Charred oysters

    I stumbled into this spot (which is kind of hidden) thanks to the recommendation from a friend. I sat at the bar and had rose, charred oysters and the Cesar salad. The charred oysters were phenomenal. The meal was a good size with the salad. Initially the salad looks enormous, but it's just leafy and paired with the rose and oysters, it just was a good meal. It's pretty dark inside, so do keep that in mind. Sitting at the bar does allow you to chat with the bartenders and servers, which I always enjoy. I was seated near the kitchen and it was just a bit odd.

    Seaworthy isn't just a restaurant; it's an aesthetic. The vibe is dark, nautical chic with just enough mood lighting to make everyone look 15% hotter. Come for the oysters, stay for the lobster roll, and leave wondering if you can pull off a captain's hat without looking like a tourist.

    Service, wine, vibe... so good. Spooky kind of ambiance (which I love). Our waiter was so kind and helpful with choosing between what we wanted to order 1000/10

    Had an amazing dinner here! I was with a large group so we were able to try multiple dishes: Parker House Rolls, Shishito Peppers, Hot Fish Dip, Charbroiled Oysters, Seared Octopus, and a variety of raw oysters. Their desserts were amazing too! Service was great, especially accommodating for our large party.

    I do enjoy this restaurant but I find it a bit irritating that the entire menu changes every 3 weeks. Once you like something and want to get it again, it's gone.

    Just a block down from the (was ACE hotel)--stay tuned for the new Barnett hotel review. Seafood restaurant with the best oysters shucked right in front of you. What a selection they have and are very knowledgeable on the subject if you are not! We had the Canadians and they were sooo clean and crisp that we had them a second time! You can get horseradish and sauce for them if you like. All very fresh. My first suggestion is do not pass up the opportunity to try them. I hate to say this but here... they were better than what I had in Boston. I did tell them that! There are food choices for anyone including the non seafood loving but I would definitely go for the seafood. The price options also vary so there really is something for anyone. Good date place. Staff are so attentive, professional or... entertaining. We chose to sit at the oyster bar as we were always walking the city and landed somewhere with our backpacks but certainly there were many there for date night and dressed for it! Beautiful place with beautiful seating even when at the oyster bar. There is outdoor seating as well on the patio. Also very intimate. Ok so now the fun. We went there a couple of times ummm.... maybe 4 because the oysters were so good and chose to try everything we could from the menu. There was not a bad choice. Happy hour is from 4 to 6 and I would highly suggest it. 1/2 price oysters and a special app menu. Drink discounts as well. The staff are so friendly and entertaining. Good humor and really engage you. So...aside from the best oysters in the city, the staff really make the place engaging and enjoyable. I will definitely be back!

    Is this a place you would go for a quick bite before going out or is dinner typical restaurant length?

    I'd suggest hitting Seaworthy for their Happy Hour (discounted oysters and drinks)... best/freshest oyster I've had in town and the selection from numerous regions is impressive

    When is Happy Hour?

    Wednesday-Sunday 4-6pm

    Picking up visitors from airport. Saturday, very late night, 11:30pm - Midnight'ish. They'll have a 10yr & 13yr old with them. Will the kids be allowed to eat here at that time?

    Def call, but I would say no. It's not a comfy place per say especially for younger ones who may be tired / hungry. It's more chic than family really.

We were seated in the upstairs area and tried some of their drinks. We got the Brandy Crusta which is their most popular drink and the Pouvez-Vous Poulet which is a seasonal cocktail. The Brandy Crusta has the cup dipped in sugar with a fairly strong cocktail within. Definitely get this when you are here as that is one of the best Brandy Crustas and is historical. The Pouvez-Vous Poulet is a duck fat washed rum cocktail and is also very delicious. You cannot really go wrong with any cocktail, but definitely order the Brandy Crusta for the true experience here. Though, honestly, while the cocktails are good, it was not as memorable as the other Top 50 Best Bars in the World that I have been to, but I won't dock a star off because of this, since the cocktails and overall experience otherwise were fantastic. Service is good but can be a bit slow, but it is an acceptable tradeoff for a more quiet ambience compared to downstairs.

While I knew of the drink French 75, on the bar menu it was offered with either gin or cognac. I decided to try the cognac and so glad I did. Perfectly delicious!

While the Sazerac wasn't invented here, this is arguably its most iconic home, a place where New Orleans cocktail history comes to life. I would use this version as your gold standard when dining out in New Orleans and looking for a perfect Sazerac. We enjoyed watching bartender Rachel craft each drink. Rye whiskey, Peychaud's Bitters, and sugar are stirred in a small pitcher with ice. The serving glass is chilled, then emptied, and finished with an absinthe rinse along the rim. The cocktail is strained into the glass and topped with a lemon peel. The atmosphere makes the experience even better. The murals, the history, and the energy of the room give it a sense of occasion that you do not get at most bars. We had such a great time sitting at the bar that my wife and I each finished two and a half Sazeracs, which tells you everything you need to know.

Atmosphere/Appearance: It's EXTREMELY BUSY and very loud in here. Lol. As mentioned above, the bar is located inside the hotel so once you walk in through the front door you enter the lobby then head to the right. It's a first-come, first-serve situation (at least it was for us at the time). So of course, the carousel bar is the highlight. It's a slow rotating bar rail and it's adorable. Lol. Almost the entire bar is eyeing any available spots so you have to be quick, but be respectful. However, there are tables and such sprinkled throughout the bar where you can hangout at as you stalk the actual carousel. My wife and I sat in the window which made for some excellent people watching. Lol. Eventually after what felt like an hour or we did spot some spots on the carousel, my wife held them for me as I closed the check then finally got to sit... and SPIN! The bar completes a full revolution every 15 minutes so you definitely won't get dizzy. Service: We had no issues here whatsoever. The staff is just super busy all over the place, but they didn't miss a beat. Food: For my first drink I checked out their Oaxacan Midnight which was like a tequila play on the Old Fashioned. It was delicious, a bit lighter than an Old Fashioned, but certainly stood on it's own. For our first appetizer bar bite we tried the Blue Crab & Corn Beignet which didn't come out as I was expecting. Lol. I'm not mad, I just pictured the big, fluffy things from Cafe Du Monde, but maybe stuffed with goodies! These were more like fritter than I absolutely loved so much I ordered a 2nd plate. Lastly we tried the BBQ Shrimp which was grilled to perfection with a good snap, excellent flavor and good char along with a tangy, cream sauce on top. Value: It's pricey. Food and drinks were decent, but a SMIDGE overpriced, but... they know you're going to pay because you're on vacation, you're a tourist and you wanna be in this novelty bar. Lol. Regardless, I had a blast and you can say you did too whenever you check this place out! In conclusion, I've now been there, done that. Lol. I don't have to do it again, but if you're in the area, check this place out. It's a good time.

Inside is low light and old time apothecary mood, menus like a spellbook, but it's not gimmicky. The bartenders move like they've done the reps. Calm. Precise. No frantic showboating, no syrupy cover ups, no sloppy pours even with the parade energy banging on the door. We ordered two and they were both dead on. Alchemist Elixir: pea flower gin, elderflower liqueur, fresh lemon. It shows up pale violet with an orchid on the rim and yes it's pretty, but it's also disciplined. Floral without tasting like perfume. Bright without being sour. A drink that makes you slow down. Plus a magic chemists surprise. Corpse Reviver #2: local gin, Lillet Blanc, Grand Marnier, absinthe, fresh lemon. Cold, crisp, citrus first, then the herbal edge and just enough absinthe to remind you what city you're in. Served in a textured coupe with a cherry skewer, details handled like they actually matter. Outside, the streets were selling amnesia in plastic souvenir cups. Inside, The Apothecary was serving adults. Let Bourbon Street keep the grenades. Give me the anecdote .
