We showed up late on a Tuesday not expecting anything great. We were disappointed! Everything from the welcome upon entering, to our server, to our food - everything was fantastic. The portions of food is way more than expected. I recommend.

Hey Jason, we thrive on hearing experiences like yours! Once we get you in the door, it’s one of the best experiences on Bourbon Street. One of the local chef’s mom’s has eaten at Rex House and says the exact same thing as you did…the portions are unheard of in the French Quarter alone and add that on Bourbon Street too? Come back and see us!

Hey Janet, thanks for checking in with us! We are a huge fan our chicken alfredo too. That sauce is the best and out marinated chicken is perfect.

Stumbled (figuratively not literally) into this place after a fantastic performance at Preservation Hall. We were hungry. And thirsty.
Excellent service. Excellent food (gumbo, po' boys, fried chicken, pastas). The kidlet pronounced the gator bites as "awesome."
The best part? Eating al fresco in the courtyard. If you're hungry and on Bourbon Street, don't pass this place up.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

Came across this place while we were walking along bourbon st. We were hungry. The place wasn't as packed as you'd think it would be. We came in were seated. The waiter took our drink orders.Brought our drinks to us. We ordered two appetizers, a spinach dip and some fried crab claws. We waited about 30 mins and then realized it was taking some time, when finally our waiter came out with an appetizer that wasn't ours. When we pointed this out he left then came back and said they were out of the appetizer we wanted, the fried crab claws. We told him we wanted him to take it off our ticket then. So we waited about 30 mins longer still waiting for our food when finally we decided to go somewhere else. We told our server to cancel our order, then the head chef comes out and says the food is almost ready and if they don't charge us if we'd take the food. We explained to him our wait time and advised if it was going to come out now then we would wait but that we were not happy with service thus far. After 15 more mins food finally came out and all of us were I agreement how bland and cold the food was. We got up and paid for our drinks and left.
I did notice another table was also served her food before her partner. And had to wait as long as we didn't get partners food finally came out.
Bad experience.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

We had a great lunch here today. My wife had us split a chicken basil Po-boy.. it was plenty big for both of us. Our server Akeem was very friendly and personable. Highly recommend if you are in the Big Easy.

Hey Al! Akeem is great, he always pleases his guests with his charm and personality. The Caprese Chicken Po’Boy is always a crowd pleaser. Come back and visit!

Ok so one star in this review is just dedicated to the most friendly staff ive ever been around. Their staff is not just friendly-they are very helpful too. Food is great and loved every part of it. There is an outdoor courtyard space too-MUST try in Nola. If you are visiting Nola and wanna try all their best food- try the tester in main entrees- It has goodness of Gumbo/Jambalaya/crawfish etc. Ambiance is the best. Its on main bourbon street but once you enter its very nice and free of hussle and bussle.

Hey Maria, awwww you making us blush! Our secret little courtyard is the best on Bourbon, maybe even in the French Quarter. Our team is by far one of the best teams in the city too. Along with the best food…wait you just said we are the best! Thanks for the kind words and keep stopping by Maria!

Awww Ben, you are making us blush. Our Downtown Red Beans & Rice with fried chicken is always a hit. It tastes just like our momma’s red beans growing up as a kid. We look forward to you hanging out with us again, next time try the soft shell crab!!
