“ Food was amazing 10/10, great service and the beers were cold. Unique and inviting atmosphere will definitely be back! ”
“ Small and tucked away in a break off from the main strip in Gatlinburg. This is why apps like Yelp are important--so you can see the unnoticed! Very laid back with a big fireplace and vent, people's taped dollar bills across the entire place--cool but a bit overdone. The service was quaint, a bit lackluster but didn't mind it with how good the food was. Poboys and gumbo are the real stars! Of course inspired by family owners roots, New Orleans was strongly represented here. I will add to a tip, though I know this area is in the depths of the Deep South, even many of us southerners are switching to unsweet tea; not to mention the thousands of international attention Gatlinburg has been receiving. After visiting dozens of other local dining options, I'd say broadening to add unsweet tea would be a good move. ”
“ MUST EAT HERE!!!! This is the definition of a "hole-in-the-wall" - which also means you should NOT miss this place. It is an authentic, small business (no chain restaurant and crap food here!), that is truly a hidden gem. Husband had a shrimp po'boy - it was on point. My half a muffuletta was GIANT! Flavors were amazing. Fried okra is awesome and the onion rings may be some of the best ever. Food was piping hot, which means made to order goodness. Seriously - get here, now! ”
“ The food was so delicious! The crawfish etouffee and seafood gumbo were fresh made and nicely spiced. The crabcake po'boy and shrimp po'boy were well cooked and the bread had a wonderful crunch and texture. The service was friendly and helpful. Location is small but the fireplace was nice on a cold afternoon. ”
“ Exception for area, highly recommend. Off Parkway storefront, must walk into side stores to end. Quaint, small with center fireplace, tv. wonderful during light rains. Ordered 1/2 Muffaleta, okra. Served warm, delicious bread, plenty of leftovers. Shall return. ”
“ We found this place a few years ago with our kids. We were on a quest for fried okra for our youngest soon. My wife and I returned not only for the okra, but also for the the friendly staff and the cozy decor. They suggested the fried cauliflower which was awesome. i had the crabcake poboy and my wife had the roast beef poboy (with gravy) - both excellent. If you like cozy family-owned places, this place is worth the visit. Keep in mind it is very cozy though. You will have a challenge sitting together with groups larger than 6. ”
“ This small quaint place was just what we needed for dinner! We came in and was greeted by a New Orleans accent, I knew it was going to be good! I had the red beans and rice. My husband had the shrimp po boy that he absolutely loved. And my son had their chicken tender and fries which he devoured! New Orleans is one of my favorite places and their food is phenomenal! It took me back eating here! Highly recommend! ”
“ At the end of a brick alley through a wooden door was this tiny restaurant. After days of take out and eating out I was craving something with that homemade flavor. Our waitress was really nice and the owner also waited on us. It was not fancy but was definitely what I was wanting. We ordered the gumbo but they sold out the day before so we opted for the seafood stew that had crab and shrimp. Sooooo goooood! The side of garlic bread was a bit salty. There were dollar bills stapled all over the walls. Everything was served on paper plates/ take out containers. I wish there was a location here in OKC. It would be my go-to dinner spot. ”
“ Really lovely staff, although I don't understand why you would pass a paper plate and paper bowl of hot gumbo over somebody's head instead of just walking around and putting it on the table. The seafood gumbo was so salty. And the TV was on a very violent show, which isn't really ok for "family" viewing. All that being said, good food, good price, good people. ”
“ One of my 3 favorite places to eat in Gatlinburg. Excellent fast and friendly service. Delicious food and prices that are very reasonable, if not downright cheap compared to other places around. I have had the gumbo and jambalaya. Today I opted for the Crawfish Etouffee, wonderful! Small place, get here early to get a table. ”
