★★★★★ 5.0 Brian Reigle · Dec 2025

I’ve been in Pittsburgh for business for 3 months. I have eaten here 3 times now. It’s absolutely amazing! Some of the best food around. I’ve had the etouffee, and the lobster roll twice. Both are delicious. My wife had the shrimp po boy and loved it, and my sister had the shrimp and grits and said it was delicious. I’ve also had the raw bar sampler, which was very good, the chargrilled oysters, and catfish sticks. I highly recommend all of it. The service is also top notch. They are so friendly! I will miss this place when I go home.

Randomly walked in here for brunch and I’m so glad I did. The shrimp po boy is a magnificent sandwich. The service was wonderful. Everyone was so friendly that even though I was having brunch alone I didn’t feel lonely. My drink was never empty for more than a few seconds. Loved the music and decor also. I’ll be coming back with family for sure.

Our favorite seafood spot in Pittsburgh! The best and most authentic cajun food you’ll find here. The oysters are delicious and quality sourced. Both entrees were full of flavor and the cocktails are well made.

★★★★★ 5.0 Cheyenne Sudacov · Mar 2026

Amazing oyster selection with an even better happy hour for drinks and oysters! Service is great and the relaxed vibe is a nice change from a typical stuffy oyster bar.

OMG this place absolutely blew my already high expectations out of the water. We went for brunch and the food was unreal (sorry I didn’t take pics, it was way too irresistible). I was honestly shocked it wasn’t packed, because everything we ate was amazing. We got there around 11 on a Sunday and basically had the place to ourselves. Real, authentic New Orleans food with incredible quality oysters and brunch cocktails. We tried three different Bloody Marys (house infused vodkas), mimosas, and Café Du Monde coffee. For food we had cod fish sticks, fried green tomatoes (crispy, savory, perfection), half a dozen oysters that were insanely fresh, Cajun shrimp and grits, a country breakfast with andouille sausage, chicken and waffles, and a lobster roll. Not a single miss. everything was outsta
