Waited more than 30 minutes for a Po-Boy sandwich and quite frankly, wasn't impressed. Also, there was no side dish to go with the sandwich (i.e. fries, salad, etc...). The restaurant was very overcrowded and the seating is not very comfortable ...Read more

Located on Iberville, near Bourbon St., just look for the line outside around dinnertime. The atmosphere inside is very casual; crowded and loud, like any other busy restaurant.It is with divided interests that we recommend Acme Oyster House. The ...Read more

They have the best po-boys in town. I didn't have them from every place in town, but did have quite a few, and these were my favorite. I recommend the half and half shrimp and oyster dressed.

I didn't know what to expect from Acme Oyster House, situated as it was in a very touristy area, but I was thrilled to have waited out the long line! I had some wonderful food in New Orleans, and this restaurant is at the top of my list of places to ...Read more

Acme is a New Orleans institution. You can tell this by the lines outside everynight. The interior is pretty basic, so if you're looking for ambience, you have been warned. We always make a point of eating here whenever we're in New Orleans. ...Read more

You haven't been to New Orleans until you have eaten at the Acme Oyster House. Granted, it doesn't look like much from the outside, and the inside is not much better, but you can't find a more reasonable meal in the French Quarter. Even though we ...Read more

This is one of those places that everyone talks about going but never does. It's an old place that serves great oysters and some other seafoods. If you are looking for a very low-key dining experience, with beer out of the bottle and oysters on ...Read more

Go for the oysters, nothing else. The oysters are great, the rest of the menu is garbage. Be prepared to fight your way through tourists.

Acme Oyster House was the first restaurant I had ever tried in New Orleans. Many trips later I am still stopping by, knowing that my trip wouldn't be the same without a meal from Acme Oyster House. Oysters on the half shell are as good as they ...Read more
