Best Seafood Restaurants in Old Fourth Ward

My sister in law and I came here, it was her first time and my third. As usual everything was great! Chad was our server and he was extremely knowledgeable about the menu and was very attentive to anything we needed. Definitely always coming back whenever I’m in town, can’t get enough of this place!

My husband and I dined at the bar early Saturday evening and had one of the best meals we’ve ever had. I say this as a former fine dining restaurant GM and sommelier in Boston. We started with oysters, which were both very fresh and shucked perfectly, followed by an almost impossibly tender grilled octopus, delicious seared redfish, and the whole-roasted lobster. Every dish was amazing and, what I think is most impressive, showed very talented culinary execution. To the chef and your team: be very proud. Our bartender was Mia, who was just stellar. Genuine, knowledgable, and efficient without being overbearing. Every detail was on point and turned our dinner into a really elevated and amazing experience. Although it’s a bit pricey (what isn’t these days) it’s worth every single penny (and then some).

Had the horseradish encrusted halibut . It was fabulous. Highly recommended.

Absolutely incredible experience at Marcel! The food was spectacular and cooked to absolute perfection. Top-tier service from a world-class staff made the night unforgettable. 10/10, will absolutely be back!

8/10 experience - was celebrating something special and felt it wasn’t acknowledged, and the tables on the patio were dirty from the moment I sat down until I left. The food was amazing, per usual. The waiter, Zamien, was probably the best sever I’ve had in years. Can’t wait to come back soon!
