Le Bayou Restaurant Oyster Bar

We stopped in on a whim, got seated by the open window just in time for a street drum line to setup and rock it. We had a couple beers and shared a dozen Chargrilled Oysters which were fantastic.

Upon walking by a young guy tried to reel me in there to eat. I 'm not much for those kinds of strategies but I agreed to have a few drinks. The bartender, khryschian was very polite and made some exceptional drinks. He clearly knows what he 's doing and values his job.One of the managers was nice enough to suggest some good places to eat without doing the usual oh this place is the best . All said and done I ended up staying here longer than I initially expected I would, but that 's alright because everyone that works here turned out to be pretty cool.All in all don 't let the microphone thing give you the wrong impression. They 're just trying to get more customers in but they are really genuine people and the drink and food quality is exceptional.Parking: NoKid-friendliness: YesWheelchair accessibility: Yes somewhat

I definitely enjoyed stopping by here. My experience was great from start to finish. First off cahoots to BAM I was walking on the strip minding my business when she hollered hey we have the best food and good drinks lol so I decided to give them a try. My server/ bartender Christian (Chris) was super nice and attentive. I wanted to try the oysters so he gave me a recommendation I don 't remember the name but I 'll post the pics. They where the best charboil oyster I 've had thus far. Then I had the stuffed fish topped with creole crawfish sauce with jambalaya rice. And let me tell you, they didn 't miss a beat in the flavor. Everything was perfectly delicious. If your in the area I highly recommend trying them out.

I’m a tourist… ordered 60 dollars worth of food to go and every item was HORRIBLE! The oysters were dried out and not shucked properly. The boudin balls tasted like mush and they did not include my creole mustard so they were dry and chewy. The bread pudding was okay, but the quantity for price wasn’t good. Overall, I had a bad food experience- NOT a good representation of NOLA cuisine! ?

We had dinner on the gallery so we could watch Bourbon Street fill up, it was a fun place to do that. Server was nice, restrooms were clean, and the food was great, street performers were just below. We shared the Bayou Sampler Platter.
