Acme Oyster House - Metairie

Good food and decent prices. we had a half order of both kinds of oysters. I tried for the first time to utter on this trip and the garlic crimped butter and cheese on the boiled was a good supplement. I am not much of seafood, but the chicken and sausage gum was really good, spicy enough to give them the feeling that they eat the right food for the location. I also had the grilled chicken Caesar salad, a lot of croutons that is a meh for me, but it was the best dressed zeasar that I had while down here (and I had like three because, as stated above, not much of a seafood garden perfect amout from dressing and well seasoned chicken. the friend had the same and said everything was great. we also split brotpudding for dessert and the sauce was so good. I think this is a great place to start or finish a trip to new orleans. it was a little busy, but we only waited 15 minutes and that was worth it. server was nice too.

The service was good, but this place is nothing like the acme on bourbon. eating was better there, but my party enjoyed eating her. I have the fish and garnel plate, the seafood gum, a lemon and sweet tee. the limonade was good, but the sweet tee was amazing. the fish was thin and hard at the edges, but the garnels were good. the seafood gumbo had a funny taste. I mean extreme radioiness. the jambalaya was good when my niece got her, so I turned off my rubber bear, and the charge I got was burned. even better than the seafood gum. the alligator bits were decent, somehow hard and hard. the parking lot is very narrow. the ponchartrain wels was good with the cream sauce.

Good customer service. really much to do, but fun atmosphere. good food. good prices. we would definitely go back. ask: I try the fried carcinogens. Oh yes, the oysters are amazing. get their friends family together and try it. they will leave full and happy.

Tonight for dinner here. absolutely the worst ever eat. we ordered ponchatrain and waitress said it was red, but it ended up fried cats. so delicate that one could not cut with a knife. we assume that we have crawled up in butter sauce and garnel. ha it was a kind of heavy with minimal scrap meat and no garnel. terrible. we have left starving.

I arrived at the Acme Oyster House in Metairie after a long day in the sun at JazzFest. Even though the restaurant was packed, I was able to sit at a hightop in the bar. A cold Abita Amber was the first step towards a most enjoyable dining experience. Next, if my sense of taste is correct, the Balsamic Vinaigrette dressing on the side salad contained a touch of horseradish. Not too much; just enough to give the dressing a kick! Having tried several of the New Orleans style specialties in the past, I could not decide which one to have. Fortunately, Acme offers a New Orleans Medley Red Beans and Rice, Seafood Gumbo and Jambalaya. That looked like the best option for someone who was in a quandry regarding what to order. As it turned out, all three dishes were perfectly prepared and tasted great. Acme Oyster House is consistently good and every meal I have eaten there has been enjoyable. I look forward to my next trip to Metairie...and the Acme Oyster House.
