    The monster BLT with spicy home made chips.
    Steve And Me D.

    Fantastic, friendly service. A new must-stop for us on our annual NOLA trips. Always enjoy the very tasty burger and the home made potato chips. Great to sit outside, weather permitting, for a long lunch. This time we tried the BLT and, warning, the bacon is enormous. Strongly recommend this spot.

    Seafood couvillion
    Nina N.

    Arrived at 8:30 on a Sunday with a party of 2. Place wasn't too busy. Walked in & the host told us to step outside before getting seated since there isn't much lobby room. Seated pretty quickly within 5 mins. Our server was a guy & was pretty chill, but not very attentive to us. Seemed like he was just interested in the tourists and locals that come by pretty often like one of the other reviews mentioned. I was actually pretty blown away by the food. We're locals and have been trying to come here for years but I'm just not a crazy "meat" person. We started off with the crispy turkey necks. This was a fan favorite. Almost every table in the restaurant ordered this dish. Crispy, fried, with a drizzle of sweetness! Also for the daily sausage; this was a poblano pot sausage. Delicious! The quail was so tender. It had a wonderful lemon peppery seasoning on it & the wild rice with mushrooms was sooooo good!! The seafood couvillion was great. It had shrimp, fish, and oyster in it. It's pretty damn good. Tastes like a mix of gumbo and etouffee in one. Total for 4 dishes was $100 on the dot. We will definitely be back!

    Awesome location. It's in a busy area so plan ahead to find parking. The food was good and the portions were exactly what my husbands and I was looking for. There is indoor and outdoor seating. We went during happy hour so the menu was limited. We will return for dinner soon.

    Wonderful evening at Toups! Isaac was there the whole time. Love supporting this place and everything they do for the community. We had the chicken liver mousse (incredible), cheese plate, and I had the lamb neck and my friend got the duck. Portions were generous and everything was delicious.

    This is a neighborhood gem that we stumbled upon for brunch. Comfortable inside and outside dining. Our waitress was awesome and from the Midwest. Staff was very friendly. EVERYTHING WAS DELICIOUS. Couldn't finish it all!!!

    I'm sure I've passed Toups literally 1000 times over the decades, and this was my first time stopping in! Glad I did. Cute, cozy space...it felt quite cottagey! I had a couple of drinks that were tasty and strong, and the bar staff was really cool. I also got the roasted Gulf shrimp small plate...plump shrimp smothered in a butter sauce, seasoned to perfection with focaccia bread to soak up all the juices. Delish! I did find the dishes to be a bit on the pricey side for the portions, but I can tell that the quality is there. I would definitely visit again!

    Finally made it here and I'm kicking myself for not going sooner. Had the Chef's Lunch: Boudin, a burger and a beer. Boudin was great but the burger- it's the best burger I've ever had in my life! No joke. I've had a favorite burger in this City for a while and Chef Isaac's burger came, punched that burger in the face and knocked it off its throne. I can't wait to go back and try some of the other dishes. Our server was awesome as well. Well done Toups!

    We were celebrating a birthday and had heard so much about the restaurant so decided to make a reservation to try it out. Overall food was decent, a bit pricey for the casual atmosphere, but the service was not good. We ordered the cheese board, the shrimp and grits, the burger and the fish and egg. The burger was good with a good portion size and flavor. It was served with chips which were so salty that were inedible. We ordered a side of fingerling potatoes which were better. The shrimp and grits was also a good portion size and had a good sauce but everything kind of blended together so you couldn't really tell where everything was. The cheese board was average, smaller pieces and there are better selections at other locations. The fish dish was good. Overall the food and portion size plus flavor was good but the prices were high and the service was not good.

    Meatery Board
    Vince G.

    Very cool and different restaurant. They have a great mix of classic Cajun and fun experimentation going on with their menu you won't get at other places in New Orleans. Their meat/pickle board is a must get. Also they were super accommodating for us and our slightly wild two year old which we really appreciate as first time parents. The owner even brought out a rubber ducky for her. Great and unique experience overall!

    Dirty rice.

    I have eaten @Toups in the past and i love there shared plates and appetizer. Our server Gab was awesome. He was so friendly he made you wanted to order everything on the menu. We enjoyed the breezy weather on the patio while dinning in.

    Double Pork Chop
    Michael M.

    OMG! If you like meat in many forms, this is the place to go. The selection is great and the service is awesome. Resturante is eclectic and fun. We all had different dishes and shared with each other. All was excellent. Come hungry and adventurous, the portions can be large. Get the meat board as an appetizer, you will not be disappointed. It is in a residential area and parking is a premium, Uber/Lyft if you can. I had the double pork chop. Took the pic after I had started. Didn't finish because it was like eating a small potbelly pig. If you a vegan/vegetarian this is not the place for you. Will go back.

    The food was prepared thoughtfully. Really friendly service. Ambiance was a little loud inside but we got to see the kitchen staff at work.

    Is this restaurant wheelchair accessible?

    Yes, there are no steps to enter in or out , but the outside patio is very small and close if you are in a wheelchair. The inside is also very crowded so I guess it would depend on what accommodations you need. If you want to message me with a… Read more

    OMG!!!! This place was sooo freaking good!!! The seasoning and sauce was perfect for what we asked…read morefor. I came with a friend who had never had a seafood boil. I've never had crawfish and seeing it was crawfish season we were destined to be here. We built out our own seafood boil, which included, 1lb shrimp head off, 2 soft shell crab clusters, 1lb crawfish, corn, potato, and sausage. Let's just say we left with a pretty big leftovers box We ordered the hot house flavor and do not regret it one bit! Our server was so kind to show us how to peel and eat the crawfish and honestly it was so fun!! I will definitely be back next time in New Orleans!! One quick note I will say that I learned from a local that I wish I knew before this feast (And you should double check with staff if this info is correct). Most seafood boil places in the area when they have headless shrimp it is farmed and brought in from outside retailers where if you get head-on it's from local ships in the area/fresh caught. Apparently they've been struggling and if you want to support New Orleans local fisherman then go for the head-on shrimp. Again double check with staff if their head-on shrimp is local cuz I learned this information after visiting.

    The atmosphere at Hot & Cajun was clean, comfortable, and inviting. Unfortunately, the service left…read morea lot to be desired. We waited approximately 30 minutes before our waiter even came to greet our table, which set a disappointing tone for the entire meal. The food was decent, but nothing particularly memorable or worth going out of the way for. It's possible the long wait and lack of attention from the staff affected the overall experience and my enjoyment of the meal. The restaurant has potential given the nice atmosphere, but the service needs significant improvement. Until then, I can't rate it any higher than 2 stars.
