Reviews for Clesi's Seafood Restaurant & Catering in New Orleans, LA

Enjoyed the Coolinary menu. outside eatery. When we originally booked our seats we did not know that all of the seating was... outside. they do have a lot of fans and that cooled everything down as well as kept any possible pest away. We tried a few oftheir crafted cocktails and they were all very good. -> Watch out for the obligatory 5% charge they are going to add to yourbill for the kitchen staff. If you tip 20% you are effectively paying 25% I tried the parmesan broiled oysters. It was a littletoo much cheese on there for me but the flavor was good. my appetizer was the spinach artichoke dip and it had a lot ofspinach… Not too much cream. Delicious The staff was very friendly and helpful. Read more

Authentic experience and gem just minutes from the heart of New Orleans. Tasty crawfish and shrimp, seasoned to perfection.... Couldn’t get enough of it. The jambalaya fries are a MUST-TRY! A great complement and side. Wonderful service from ourwaitress, who helped explain how much people normally order. Loved the outdoor dining experience as well. Read more

Staff was really friendly with our to-go order; thanks to BREE who helped me figure out what to get. Crawfish were great. We can... eat a grand total of one pound between Ben and I. The Jambayala fries were GREAT but it was a mistake to get them as a to-goorder. They were a solid mass by the time we got back to eat them. Grilled chicken sandwich was underwhelming. Very cute inhouse environment upon pickup. Loved the vibe. Read more

Delicious Seafood at a great price. What's not to love! Clesi's offer a great Crawfish boil and very good Po' boy. We sat inside... near the bar and our server was kind and very helpful with recommending the amount of crawfish to order, and how best to eatthem. I look forward to my next visit. 5.0 Read more

Crawfish Rangoons, amazing. Jambalaya, to die for. This place has carved itself into this nook and is always busy. You can... complain about a wait but if you are in NOLA and you aren’t waiting, it isn’t worth it. This place is great, highlyrecommend and props to the Chef and the Boil Pit, none stop business and happy (full bellied) patrons. Keep it up, we’ll beback! Read more

This was an unexpected great find! After trying to get crawfish at two other places unsuccessfully, wound up here. What a great... place for out of town guests to experience a crawfish boil!!!! The menu was VERY limited so we saw a lot of people decide to goelsewhere. We enjoyed it so much we went back the next day! Read more

In my last day in New Orleans I ordered the Boiled Platter… it was amazing! I’ve never tried crawfish before, I love seafood... and I was really craving for this! I was kind of disappointed for other meals that were okay but too overpriced for being such atouristic place. However, this platter was the opposite! It was so worth it! For $19 you get this amount of food! Not only thequantity but also the quality! I totally recommend this place for anyone who is visiting New Orleans and is craving forcrawfish! Read more
