Danny Seafood: Reviews & Ratings
my best place for seafood in New Orleans. I recommend come here for New Orleans style seafood. will see you there.
Do NOT let the outside or inside deceive you! The food was so good, we had to come back twice. The crab legs were meaty. The potatoes were cooked to perfection and not mushy. The corn was also good and had that spicy thing going on. So beware if you're too weak for the heat. The crawfish were good. I was surprised I even tried those. My sister also had the pig feet. She said they need to be cleaned more. I didn't deduct a star because she shouldn't be anyone feet any how. She also enjoyed the turkey necks.
If "don't judge a book by its cover" was a store...this is it! Sure the area doesn't look the best...sure the parking is a mess...sure it isn't the tidiest little spot but if you can look past all of that it's a gold mine! My 5 stars is based on food alone. This spot has the best seafood boiled Turkey necks in the city in my opinion. With the option to choose mild or spicy anybody is satisfied. Although I'd prefer to get my actual seafood elsewhere...The combo bag is one of their biggest hits! It contains a whole Turkey neck, pig feet, a whole link of sausage, corn, and potatoes that are all perfectly seasoned and bound to make your stomach smile. Most days you can just walk in and order. Others, mostly during crawfish season you'll be in a line. But it's worth it.
Saw a line one day so I got in it... after standing there for a bit I realized everyone was getting crawfish, so I did the same. Ordered 2lbs with some corn and potatoes. Took it back to my Airbnb near by and sat in the backyard drinking beers, eating crawfish, listening to jazz, loved every minute of it.
This place never faild me!!! I go strictly for the turkey necks when I am in New Orleans!!! It's a must stop for my family!! And this time my husband and I didn't have to share!
One of the best seafood places in the city, the original home of the combo bag !! Seafood is always seasoned and Customer service always the best. Some days lines can be a lil longer than usual but they move really fast!!
My husband ran up on this spot visiting the the N.O. in 2017. Visiting this year...and my husband tried everything to remember where we had the best turkey necks. Well, leaving Super Sunday in our visit this year...he ran up on it again leaving to go back to Florida..now we have a spot for the best gumbo and best turkey necks!!!!
