   You would expect the food to be good since we are in New Orleans, but it was not. We ordered two dishes recommended by the waiter (the crawfish étouffée and the redfish). There were maybe three or four miniature shrimp in the étouffée and no other solids. The carrots with the redfish were not edible. A third dish, jambalaya, was also very light on the protein elements. The meals were $24 and up each. The live music was nice and the atmosphere was okay, albeit we were one of the few tables occupied. The overall experience should have been a great one, but the food and value were terrible, and we had an unwelcome surprise of a $7.95 service fee being added to the bill(we were a party of 5 and tip was still to be added). I am sure there are much better restaurants in New Orleans to spend your valuable vacation time at to get a higher quality experience.

   Start the meal with a great beer the add both the Crabmeat Hushpuppies and Boudin Egrolls. You could actually order from the appetizer menu & be perfectly satisfied. On our way out bartender noticed my husband looking at the beer vats upstairs, he stopped us gave us some history of the beer the building & some a sample. Great guy and pleasure to speak too!

   Steaks were sub par but I didn’t want to pay 80 bucks for a steak so we went there. Steaks were small. They say 12 oz pre cooked, more like 10-11…anyways, service was great. We live here and were there for a wedding. Love their beer choices.

   Waitress was sweet, beer flight was incredible, everything else was horrendous. Food came out relatively quick, but was lukewarm / cold. Had the New Orleans Trio BBQ shrimp tasted freezer burnt & grits were decent flavor but cold, jambalaya Orleans was extremely bland, Louisiana Crawfish Etouffee tasted like it was left out and forgotten about. Wild Mushroom Pasta was ok, but again lukewarm. Crabmeat Stuffed Shrimp was also horrible. The shrimp were rubbery, tasteless, while the crabmeat stuffed in tasted like stale and old. Funky…

   I’ve stopped here several times over probably 20+ years when in the FQ. I’ve always left satisfied with my beer and food choices.

   Food did not come out hot. Ordered oysters that were never delivered to the table. Kids Mac and cheese was dried out mess. Jambalaya was 2 shrimp and cold rice for 30.00. Even the hurricane was not good. House IPA was not drinkable.

    Best place we visited so far. Love the brewery vibe. Lots of great food choices. I had ribs and yes they fell off the bone. Hubby couldn’t eat his creole shrimp fast enough. We both indulged in dessert (I had mousse and he had brownie sundae). We were seated at the second floor which had access to an outside balcony. They had live music in the front lobby which didn’t overpower the noise level you could actually talk to each other.
