Our server was friendly, helpful and attentive. We went with the Club sandwich and I had to try the Beignet fries. During weekend brunch, they offer $5 Bloody Mary's and Mimosa carafes for $19 which I do find high. The beignet fries were delicious and hot. The club sandwich was great with plenty of fries; however we were disappointed with the deli meat which was the basic round deli meat. The bacon though was fried to crisp perfection. I order the Bayou Punch which was great but very sweet. I loved that their cocktails were $8. A rarity these days. I would go back and try some different menu items. They do have live music on weekends as well.

Comfortable but classy atmosphere, with football on the TV in the dining room. (Welcome to Louisiana!) Owner took our drink and food orders (we were ready! - we had already previewed the menu on Yelp) and everything was delivered quickly. Husband had the Smokey Mountain Burger ($16), medium, with fries. The fries were crispy and the burger was so good! I'm not a big burger fan, but it was cooked just right and had plenty of flavor. I opted for the Thai riblets app ($14) which was served with a small side of their slaw and the "fried" Brussel sprouts app ($10). O...M...G! The sprouts came with a side dressing of mayo/lemon/garlic (?), of which I was not a fan; eat them plain - you'll be glad you did. Slaw was great - not too much mayonnaise - but I scraped off the seasoning topping because it was too salty for me. Thai riblets were fall-off-the-bone good without being over seasoned/sauced. We finished my husband's burger then took my leftovers home. They reheated very well. It's not the cheapest place, but we felt like we got our money's worth from our meal and would totally return. There's some other things on that menu calling our names. :)

And I'm ashamed to admit how much the salad that was almost all spinach leaves with exactly 5 shrimp (added on for $10, my bad for not asking how many were included but come on) cost me in total. So. I'm sure other people dig this place, they've been around a long time, but nah.

The first floor has a bar where you can sit and watch the kitchen plate the food, which is a nice touch. Upstairs offers more formal seating along with a balcony, giving the place a different vibe depending on where you land. We ordered the shrimp and grits, and they lived up to the hype, excellent flavor, well-balanced, and cooked exactly right. We also had the cast iron seared fish, which was swordfish that day. It was seasoned perfectly and very tasty, with no need for anything extra. Overall, the food was well-executed and thoughtfully prepared. If you're looking for a New Orleans spot that takes its cooking seriously without being over the top, Gris-Gris delivers.

They were fabulous performers. The staff was fun and friendly, it wasn't really their fault with the problems that follow. The bad: For noon reservations for drag brunch, they were not ready at all. It was $35 a person for the reservation. It seems a bit steep, however the show was good. When I say they weren't ready, they really were on a struggle bus. We had a couple cocktails and I believe every one else had the $25 bottomless mimosas. However, they didn't have the champagne in stock so many people had to wait for a drink. And once they for them, it was hard to keep their glasses full with the lack of staff. We ordered food and it took FOREVER! I mean, we almost left because all we had in our stomach was coffee from the morning and a couple cocktails. Let me remind you that our reservation was for noon. We did not get our food until 2:30. I was getting quite nauseated. I ordered the chicken and French toast, I asked for no maple syrup but it was doused in it. It was ok. I ate the chicken. TL:DR- cocktails were good, the show was good. They needed more staff and the food was meh. EDIT: Our credit cards were charged and the money refunded and additional charges were placed on our card.

I was sad that they only had a rose available since I'm usually a red wine drinker. The charcuterie board was a good snacking size for two to three people and great for the price.

The bartender had to check what wine was on tap when I asked and they were also testing out their old fashioned recipe.

Our server, Christopher, was very attentive, suggested wine pairings, and gave us great recommendations. We started with the charbroiled oysters which is a must. They were large and charred to perfection on the outside grill, topped with parm and breadcrumbs. My friends ordered the filet and the gulf fish, and I had the charred cabbage entree, with a French gerwurztraminer blend. The mushrooms with the blue cheese sauce were so rich and delicious! Sweet treats were a no brainer. The blue cheese flan was creamy and decadent. A perfect ending to the meal. This is so far my fave restaurant in New Orleans. It's an honest, no BS creole inspired cuisine. 100% coming back soon!

The moment you step into Atchafalaya, you realize it. Ambience is amazing, quirky, cool, homey and cozy. Staff is amazing. We sat in our own private room and were treated to a very special delight of a dinner. I tried the incredible fried green tomatoes, the seafood soup (?) and the incredible steak...wow, everything was amazing.
