    Kingfish was absolutely delicious. My husband who is a nola foodie raved about it. He got the catfish Huey and twice baked potato no bacon and I got the blackened scallops and shrimp fettuccine. We also got the crawfish bread and shrimp and fried green tomatoes appetizer. Everything was amazing. Authentic new orlenas flavors along with exemplary service and stellar ambience (we could converse because it was not too loud and we sat near doors that opened onto the quarter. The indoor temp was good as well.) we will definitely make this one of our go to restaurants when we come back to New Orleans. Go! You will not be disappointed.

    I came here for my birthday and the service was great and the waitress was really nice and attentive but that was the only redeeming quality. I was really excited to try this restaurant after hearing such great things about it only to rather crave a Hot and Spicy McChicken from McDonald’s and would’ve been more fulfilled than the shrimp and grits I got from this restaurant. None of my family liked what we ordered and even though we only got 4 entrees, we had to wait a total of 30 mins for our food with only 2 other seated parties. I left here dissatisfied and I’m honestly still upset that we paid $145 before tip for 4 entrees that we straight up thought was some of worst food we’ve tried in all of New Orleans. My father got the seafood gratin for $30 and honestly it was one of the smallest portions I’ve ever seen in my life. It was literally cooked on a cookie skillet. On top of that, none of the food had any flavors that stood out. Unfortunately this is going to be a one and done kind of restaurant for me.

    Great Louisiana cuisine at very reasonable prices. Served our large table of 12 ladies promptly and well. Friendly accommodating staff. Fun but elegant atmosphere. What a treat

    We were very disappointed in our kingfish experience overall. We ate at Mr. B’s the previous night and it was incredible. We were expecting something similar and it was not all all similar. Food, service, ambience everything was marginal. Very disappointing
