What People Are Saying
from Google"First time here and WOW—this place was incredible. From the decor to the friendly staff and bold flavors, everything impressed us. The bartender was super kind, walked us through the specials, and made great recommendations. We ordered the shrimp po’boy with chicken gumbo and the Viet seafood po’boy with shrimp & okra gumbo. The vibe alone is worth the visit—horror memorabilia mixed with strong New Orleans energy. The po’boys were huge and loaded. Fried shrimp was perfectly crispy and tender, and the remoulade really elevated it. My po’boy had great flavor with just the right amount of spice, and the bread was crisp outside and soft inside. The gumbos were good, but not the star. Definitely coming back to try more of the menu."
"La bouffe est très bonne!!! The fried shrimp po boy was the best i have ever had, and the bread is like a crispy cloud. The rémoulade was amazing. The decoration is straight out of new orleans."
"We got the recommendation from a local couple while at Leon Bridges show last night.. Great spot and we enjoyed our Blackened shrimp poboy, fried shrimp poboy & shrimp and andouille gumbo… The boudin was just ok for me, in comparison.. I like a bit more seasoning in my rice, but it was still good and It still didn’t have a chance.. That being said, I also have family in New Orleans and visit 20+ times a year! Keep up the great work! I know why we got the recommendations!!"
"The food was fantastic. The decorations are cool. I had the surf n turf and a boudin link. Both were very good. The roast beef was tender, and the Shrimp was fried well, and crispy. The sauce on the surface n turf po boy was delicious as well. Some coworkers said their gumbo was the best they had ever eaten. The pecan bread pudding for dessert was an excellent dish! Cool vibe, great food, go out of your way to eat here."
"Really enjoyed this restaurant. Friendly staff. First time visiting and they recommended so interesting dishes. Chicken was very flavorful and tender. Atmosphere was very relaxing. Found a table on the inside near the corner. Not a very big restaurant on the inside but it feels very cozy. Would definitely visit again when I am in Birmingham."
