    There were some execution errors with our food, but they were not to the point of returning a dish. The server and oyster man were fantastic. The menu is excellent and the bar seems solid too. I only had a draft beer, but the selection was unique and well balanced. We will be back!

    Josh and the team did amazing. They went above and beyond for us. This was our happy hour meal after getting engaged. They played an embalmer playlist and had champagne ready (I did call ahead to ask). Absolutely incredible!! And the food, my goodness 15/10 will be back. Worth the trip to the garden district!! Cannot thank them enough for a special afternoon on a special day

    Genuinely think these are the best oysters in the city limit. Absolutely everything we ordered was 10/10 (including the drinks). The staff was friendly and very fun to talk to. It’s expensive but worth every single penny. We will absolutely be coming back.

    Loved our experience at Seawitch! Food was exceptional. We went for lunch on a Saints away game, so it had more of a sports bar feel than I expected - but still great!

    Thoroughly enjoyed everything we ordered! A nice departure from the standard seafood you get all the time. The spicy Blue Crab Claws with the added crunch, the Sticky Ribs with the amazing pepper jelly sauce, chargrilled oysters with Duong Phuong bread, and the Peanut Butter Pie were all excellent. We sat at the bar and the bartender was super friendly and her energy was infectious. All around a great experience.

    You can’t beat $1 oysters! The fries were not as advertised and completely different from what they post. As someone who loves fries this was a huge disappointment.
