Mr. Ed's Oyster Bar & Fish House, Metairie

So EVERY other location of Mr. Ed's I've eaten at has been really great and I've always enjoyed it. I avoided coming to this location for quite awhile as I had always liked Bozo's which was at this location before so it seemed too weird to visit here for a long time. So finally in 2022 I decided to make a visit here. It did take a bit of adjustment as it was so different yet still had some of the bones of Bozo's still present. I had high expectations from my prior visits to other Mr. Ed's locations but sadly they really disappointed me here. My first visit I ordered seafood gumbo, crawfish bread and trout almondine. The seafood gumbo barely had any seafood in it, the crawfish bread was VERY cheesy but barely any crawfish were to be found, the trout almondine was EXTREMELY dry and tough

The oysters were good had charboiled, half and half Rockefeller/ beinville. Calamari spinach crawfish dip. Past noddles hard. But the dessert for$ 9.99 disappointed one i open. I ordered to go. The waiter she was very nice and attentive.

We go to NOLA every Christmas to visit family (we're from here originally, but live in Houston) and turtle soup is a NOLA staple I canNOT get in Houston. I look forward to this dish every year and honestly, I enjoy Ed's more than I do Brennan's. One year, I dropped my leftovers on the floor on the way out, and Ed's in Metairie saw me literally start crying and gave me an entire new bowl to-go. This year, we arrived 45min before closing. Another large party took the last of the turtle soup. Upon hearing this and seeing me - again - about to cry, they called around and located some at the Live Oak location. Live Oak agreed to save me a bowl for pickup the next morning on my way back to Houston. Except they saved me not one, but TWO bowls of soup. Not only is the food AMAZING, but these peopl

I had been hearing good things about this place, so me and my co worker finally decided to give it a try. Our waiter Blake was amazing. He gave us great recommendations on the menu. Our lemom drops were nice and strong. I tried all four kind of chargrilled oysters( I personally would stick with the original, my coworker liked the Rockefeller ones). The crab dip and bbq shrimp were amazing. I got the white beans and rice with 2 fried pork chops and i was soo good. The white beans had sausage and shrimp. My co worker loved the red fish and fettucine, and her seafood gumbo. I def recommend and I can not wait to come back with my boyfriend.

My wife and I ate at Ed's for the first time today, and had an outstanding experience. Mark and the entire staff were friendly, welcoming, and professional. The atmosphere is awesome, and the place was super clean, and well maintained. The food was absolutely phenomenal! Hands down the best seafood restaurant around in my opinion. We will definitely be regular customers going forward. And I highly recommend the bread pudding for dessert, you won't be disappointed!
