    Mr B's is a go-to place each time we are in New Orleans. We always get the gumbo ya-ya (I make it at home and like to compare against "the standard"). The servers are always terrific and the bartenders make great old fashioneds and sazeracs. We relax each time we come in, knowing we will have a great time. Recommend the crab cakes, the BBQ shrimp, the pork chop and any of the fish presentations - outstanding.

    Enjoyed our dinner at Mr. B's but mostly for nostalgia. Was in from out of town and hadn't been there in many years. The service and ambience were great. I though the food was good but not great. My husband had the fish which looked good. I had the shrimp and grits which were lacking in flavor. The grits were lukewarm, and the shrimp were nothing special. The bacon wrap was very chewy. Had the pecan pie for dessert. It was good but not memorable. Expect better in New Orleans.
