New Orleans Hamburger & Seafood Co

This place seems to be a standard place for good olé New Orleans fried food. They have an extensive menu of (mostly) fried food but it was all so very good. The most popular item is the thin catfish, which isn’t really terribly thin in comparison to catfish anywhere else. The tastiest item on the menu were the shrimp. The catfish was good, but it wasn’t nearly as tasty as the shrimp.
All in all, this is a great quick, casual spot for a meal with friends and or family. And the best part is the free ice cream cone after you finish eating.

Not sure if the guy taking my order was making jokes. I ask for gumbo he told me they were out. Then I started to ask for something else and he said just kidding … and then said he gave me my drink for free: /​My Caesar salad was swimming in dressing so luckily they had shredded lettuce at the salad bar to help absorb some of the dressing. I also thought $ 18 for a grilled shrimp Caesar salad and a cup of gumbo was really high. My mom ordered a shrimp remoulade salad they must have accident put vinaigrette dressing and instead of making a new one they just put remoulade dressing on top. So hers was also saturated in dresses. We should have said something but we were with other people and didn’t want to spoil our time together. Huge disappointment I’ve been to other establishment and had completely different experiences. I would recommend going to the other ones or just eating somewhere else. Our waitress was very sweet and attentive.

Alright, before I commence with the review I must say that my expectations of NO H & S, were not too high to begin with.
I set the bar pretty low and so this should have been a decent review.
Should have been.
Not wanting to eat at home, and needing to make a trip to Baby’s R Us anyway, my wife suggested we amble over to this establishment with kids in tow and dine.
You know the drill if you have ever been there, walk in, order food at register, find a table and await your server.
This was pretty standard.
Our server came over, greeted us, she left and brought us back the water we had ordered, they do not have club soda and we are not soda drinkers.
Well, the water tasted like the local pool, rife with enough chlorine to kill any and all bacteria on the South Shore, so as our server gave us our food, we asked for some lemons, which she stated she would bring back.
I had ordered the seafood platter, my son had the catfish, daughter, chicken fingers and my wife a burger.
Simple, no?
1. My fish and fries were all cold.
2. The kids meals were cold, which was actually somewhat a bonus as they tend to go absolutely ballistic while waiting for the food you are furiously attempting to blow on to cool down from its molten state.
3. My wife’s onion rings were cold, although her burger was hot.
I had wanted the lemon as I stated for our waters, as well as my seafood, where lemon is a given.
No, no server.
She walks around talking to other tables, avoiding eye contact, and no lemons in hand.
My catfish was getting hard, and was cold, my shrimp was cold, my fries were greasy and cold and my turtle soup tasted like chicken.
Finally, finally walk up to the register and ask if SHE might procure some lemons for us.
She let out an exasperated breath and reaches beneath a sneeze guard and places some lemons on a small plate.
Apparently I could have gotten them myself all the time, and perhaps this is why said server never provided them for us.
She could have provided this information to me, instead of smiling, saying she could get them for them and then never coming back.
As I was walking back to my table, I told her, that’s alright, I’ve got the lemons.
To which she retorted a snarky comment back.
We finished our meal, and left, with here really not speaking to us again.
Make no mistake my friend, we will not be returning to this establishment.
For the same price, we could have had a nice, tasty meal at Venezia.
Want my advice, just do not come here, the food was bad, the service was bad, and the price is about average and you can get a better meal elsewhere for the same price point.
I don’t give many 1 stars, but this is well deserved in this instance.

This place was awesome! AMAZING garlic fries and onion rings. I got the grilled fish sandwich I highly recommend it it was so good. Definitely gonna come back and try something else

The cowboy burger was tasty. I liked the potato wedges too. Staff seem very friendly.

I don’t have a problem with the food. My issues were with the cashier. I was over charged for a drink and when I told him about it he proceeded to argue with me. Even after telling him that it’s not a big deal just credit me for it he continued to argue with me. I continuously told him that I was not going to argue with him about this. But it fell on deaf ears. Once we got our food I asked to speak to the manager. We were there for about an hour and the manager NEVER showed his face. NEVER have I been treated so poorly at a restaurant.

Been here a few times & the last couple of times they keep messing our orders up. This last time my friends order got lost but we didn’t know that & waiting for them to bring their orders so we were not eating waiting for theirs. So finally they said what happened so now our food is all cold. And then they forgot my onion rings so never got those. Food was okay as it was cold…

First timer here. Place is one of the cleanest around, staff was very friendly (especially my server Leslie-​she was awesome). The crawfish queso dip was the best I’ve ever had, and I have had plenty. The All American burger was good, nothing exceptional, the burger itself was a little over cooked which rendered it a tad bit dry. The garlic fries that every accompany every burger are very tasty. Overall a good experience and I will definitely saw several things I want to try on my next visit.

Food is always good in my opinion, as well as service, atmosphere, and cleanliness… but I have never felt like their menu has anything extra special about it and it has become «pricey $» for the portions recieved. Last few experiences have left me feeling like I’m paying too much and not leaving the restaurant thinking I had a «great» meal… just okay!

I love the convenience of the drive thru. I had the strawberry fields salad. My only recommendation is to trade out the romaine and iceberg lettuce for spinach.

My reviews are always heavily swayed by food. And, NO Hamburger has good food. It’s a little pricey, always crowded and noisy, but consistent.
Pro’s:
1) Food: Excellent and consistent in quality. Great fries and good seafood batter. Delicious hush puppies.
2) Atmosphere: Since they updated the restaurant it feels more upscale than before.
3) Customer service: Great. People great you and are polite.
Con’s:
1) Price: Too high if you’re just looking for seafood to go, or good food at a good price. Some of the selections are ok, but oyster prices are ridiculous.
2) Parking: Sometimes the parking lot is crazy active so it’s hard to maneuver.
3) Wait: During busy times, there’s a wait. Pretty much every time I’ve gone there’s been a wait.

What native New Orleanian would put mustard on a shrimp POYBOY? This was the exact question I asked when I got home and opened mine!!! This is the second time I have eaten from this place, the first time I got ketchup (I get it, some people put that on their sandwich) so I asked for NO ketchup this time, and to my unbelievable surprise, I get mustard!!! Seriously??? «Dressed» anywhere else means… Lettuce, mayo, tomatoes and pickle!!! That’s it!!! If you want anything extra you add yourself. So, I will not be eating in this establishment again when clearly they can’t even get a POYBOY correct!!!

What a surprise! The seafood gumbo is outstanding and the fried catfish thinly sliced, crispy, and tasty. I return every couple of moths just for the gumbo.

We came here on a whim. We thought maybe it was a sit down where the server took your order. Found out you order at the counter. Nothing wrong with that. The onion rings are very plentiful for a starter. One order can easily serve 2 or 3 adults. All the entrees we ordered were large portions. Even though most of what we ordered was fried, nothing came across as greasy. Kudos for that. A special shout out to our server Summer. Extremely friendly and personable. Out of the blue she swept in and grabbed our dink glasses (non-​alcoholic) and refilled them for us. Thanks again for a great meal.

This is my second time going to this chain, just a different location. The food is very good and the service is good. I am not a big burger fan but I am in love with the rajun cajun burger. The meat was tasty and thin and the burger was perfect both times I’ve had it. Their fries are also very good! They have a unique seasoning. The pricing is reasonable and the atmosphere is similar to that of a typical chain resteraunt.

Walked in to a packed house…
They request we go straight to the pay line before heading to a table!!! Stood in a long line & finally got to a very friendly cashier who said «wait no table…» Can only pay till a table clears… Waited maybe 3 mins before paying ordering their Classic BBq Shrimp Po Boy sandwich & drink & $ 1 donation for a total of $ 19.57(ouch), perhaps a little steep… Nothing «Po Boy» about this sandwich & they gave me an order number & finding, in their language «A 4 Top» or in my lowly language «a table with 4 chairs» Waited seemingly quite long approximately 20+mins before the food arrived!
That particular sandwich was good but not something I would order again may try something else be time!
Love the free ice cream & coffee! The coffee was particularly good!
I would recommend this place even though it’s perhaps a little pricier than what I thought but then again New Orleans maybe an expensive highly taxes place!

I super love their incredibly awesome Shrimpzilla po boy. It is definitely the best po boy I ever had. The potato wedged along with the meal is another surprise.

Service: I was greeted as soon as I entered but was confused on what to do. FYI: you order at the counter and they give you a number and you pick your seats.
+ I got immediate and friendly service.
— I was lost walking in, so if no one was there to greet me, I’d be standing awkwardly.
Environment: There was a very open layout with both booths and tables to accommodate small rush crowds without making it uncomfortable. It was mostly clean, nothing too crazy messy, however the desserts and apps on display getting old we’re not appealing. They looked old and would not make me interested in ordering either.
+ I had plenty of 4 top tables open to sit at while I waited for my to go order. Everything seemed noticeably clean aside for a few crumbs on my chair.
— No where to sit while waiting for a to-​go order if the restaurant had been busier (one lonely chair).
Food: For a better-​than-​fast food burger in a friendly service environment and New Orleans flavors, it’s got average food. The three stars is because the burger (which is why I went there) was not memorable in anyway. It was a hefty slab of meat but lacked the flavorful juicy beefiness I was looking for.
+ Food was made in a timely manner, fresh, hot and I like the burger and seafood options. Their garlic butter sauce for the fries is super tasty!
— Not the best burger I’ve ever had and certainly not worth the price I paid for it.

A bit pricey but the staff and service is good. Standard New Orleans faire. I had the shrimp poboy… it was ok. Not bad but nothing to write home about. The garlic fries make the meal and I could happily drink several gallons of the strawberry iced tea.
If you’re looking for a fast food poboy or a super casual place to bring the kiddos while indulging on New Orleans food this is the place for you.

Another good location of what is the best local chain in the city. On this occasion i had the shrimp remoulade salad that was delicious. The new owners have upgraded this old chain some things good somethings bad but still great for a chain.

My helper got a hamburger for ($ 7.95) and I got a shrimp/​roast beef po-​boy for ($ 12.95). We got two drinks at almost ($ 3 each). But they were not drinks, they were our participation in the beverage bar…
All together our measly sandwiches including drink was $ 30. The Oyster Heaven was «MARKET PRICE». When I asked the market price, the cashier told me it was $ 17.95 (for a 6-​inch po-​boy, have you people lost your mind???).
Before eating we used the bathroom which (by looking at the photos) looked like a time warp to the gorilla cages at the Audubon Zoo in the 1960’s. If the federal government ordered the shutdown or makeover of that zoo, some local inspector should tell New Orleans seafood that those bathrooms should look like the ones at Houstons Restaurant in a week. One stall, a urinal, and a broken sink that holds festering and leaky water with some contraption that looks like a bag for human waste!!! This is uncalled for and is disgusting. There are jails in third world countries that have facilities better than that.
I didn’t even have a camera. I borrowed my friend’s cam, and when he saw that I was taking a photo, he was terrified for his iPhone. Praying I wouldn’t drop it in that cesspool. I couldn’t help wondering the entire time I was eating if the kitchen looked like that!!!
I certainly am glad someone Unilocaled about Cajun Persuasion seafood restaurant on David Dr.
Kudos to the out-​of-​towner that found that gem. It looked like you could lick off the floors in that startup.
You can tell a lot about a restaurant by viewing their restrooms. By the looks of things, behind this façade of a pig-​sty it a hole in the wall that needs SERIOUS work.

We went in about 45 minutes before close. I usually avoid doing this, but it couldnt be helped. They were picking up already and this is my pet peeve. I think restaurants should be open until they close.
The service was polite, if not a little forced. The server was nice even though she was a bit distracted.
The food however, was on point. Everything was fresh, cooked and assembled perfectly and looked like a picture. I was so impressed. Even the salads and fries were perfect, exactly as they should be.
