We had the most memorable experience at Red Fish! This is one of our favorite restaurants in Nola and the food was superb tonight as always! The redfish entree was amazingly delicious and the oysters on the half shell were perfect! We highly recommend the fried green tomatoes! Our food was brought out quickly and our waiter Desmond was one of the best waiters we have ever had at a restaurant in Nola!! Please ask for him! He is terrific!
