Le Bayou Restaurant & Oyster Bar serves Cajun food, drinks, and desserts in New Orleans, LA. We offer a full seafood and oyster bar as well as balcony dining with a view of Bourbon Street. We serve a bevy of Cajun dishes, including crawfish etouffee, chicken andouille gumbo, blackened shrimp, and crawfish cakes. For a bit of lagniappe, we've got traditional desserts like bread pudding, chocolate mousse cake, or even our Zydeco fried cheesecake. We also make traditional New Orleans cocktails like Cajun bloody marys and hurricanes.

    The restaurant did not have our reservations and said they didn’t use open table. Waited 30 minutes but they were able to seat us in two parties of 5. Food was good.

    This place is right in the middle of Bourbon street which I guess I did not realize. Ambience is terrible. Food was average. server was very busy so trying to get refills etc was difficult. I would probably skip next time.

    It was closed. How can you let people make reservations to a closed restaurant? SMH

    This restaurant was closed, even though we had a reservation! We were left without dinner arrangements late at night. Fortunately we found another place nearby and “only” had to wait an hour for a table. Open Table you need to keep up with closures especially during the pandemic!

    Food was good! Service was adequate. Bourbon St was busy so it was really loud. Restaurant was nice and clean.

    Very small portions of food. The spinach dip appetizer was about 4 tablespoons worth. The sampler platter of red beans and rice, étouffée, and others were small cups. Not a place to go if you are real hungry. The food tasted fine and the waitress was very attentive and nice.

    This restaurant needs to be removed from Open Table at least for now. We arrived promptly for our evening reservation and found the place to be sealed up. There was no sign on the door. The phone went unanswered. We walked by a couple days later to find the same situation.
