Acme Oyster House

Best grilled oysters I've ever had. Amazing! Try it and you will be back very soon. For dessert I ordered the pecan cobbler with vanilla ice cream . Very good. Service is always good. ❤️

After crushing a dozen of their famed, hot, crispy , buttery Char-Grilled Oysters , I've deemed the reputation entirely well-deserved. Read all about this French Quarter classic on WinstonWanders below! Read more

This popular seafood chain lives up to its buzz and is worth the wait. We slurped down enormous fresh oysters and inhaled shrimp po’boys. It’s a classic must-visit for lunch before all that drinking. Read more

Everything was amazing. The charbroiled oysters and the alligator were amazing. The seafood gumbo and fish Poboy were also very good. Very very good.

The grilled oysters were amazing! My first time trying this dish! If you sit at the bar you can avoid the line .

These are the only oysters I've ever eaten without topping them off with lemon ! They're large, very meaty, some of them are a whole mouthful. They're shucked clean . No grit to be found!

Grilled oysters . Full stop. Ok also any po' boy - the food is fresh and delis opus and served with a Smile.

Pretty much enjoyed everything I've had on their menu, but go to orders rotate between the raw oysters , shrimp etouffee , and peacemaker po' boy (fried oysters and shrimp ). Line but usually moves fast.

Please!!!!!! Get their chargrilled oysters and their gumbo . I'm telling you it's amazing ???? for dessert get their bread pudding . I'm coming back before I leave for sure!!

There's a reason there always a line outside Acme (don't worry the line moves quick). Start with the Charbroiled Oysters and Fried Crab Legs , and for your entree, the 1/2 Shrimp & 1/2 Fish Platter .

We tried the charbroiled oysters at drago's and acme and acme won hands down. The crawfish puppies were also naughty and delicious. Solid Bloody Mary . Great for a quick casual snack or lunch .

We ordered the chargrilled oysters , jambalaya , and banana fosters cheesecake !! OMG!! To die for and the prices are fair !

This place ALWAYS has a line so be prepared! Worth the wait! Sit at the oyster bar ! Had oysters , oyster shooters , po boy , and étouffée , yummy!

4 people or less and you get in faster-worth the wait! Best oysters I've had! Sit at the bar and watch them shuck em and great convos with the shuck masters!

I want to marry this place. The chargrilled oysters are to die for. The place is not expensive at all and service is very quick. if you have to wait before getting a table, it will be worth it.

Unbelievable! Great atmosphere. Great music . Food is orgasmic. Wish they had a better beer selection . Chargrilled oysters#1. This is oysters Rockefeller soup

Am not an oyster lover but I guess their chargrilled oyster is the best. Just ate 2 dozen hehehe! Service is fast and attentive with our needs. Andrea is good and diligent. It made my stay great!

The wait was long, more than one hour of standing in line on a Saturday night, but it was so worth it! The Oyster Rockefeller Soup was one of the most amazing things I have ever eaten. Bravo!

Everyone comes here for the oysters but their selection of poboys and their savory crawfish are amazing too! Try them and you won't be disappointed. They are some of the best in town !

I'm in am Oyster House & refuse to order Oysters , despite all of the glowing recommendations. I know, boo me! Anyway, I'm here to let you all know that the craw puppies are amazing!

This is the best place for char-grilled oysters no mater how they try to downplay it.Get the grilled oysters ,the catfish ; but have the corn and crab chowder first while you wait... Definitely worth it

Love oyster shooters and the chargrilled oysters are phenomenal. A bit of a wait, but with all the crowds off bourbon that's expected.

Order a dozen raw and char grilled oysters . Its cheaper and you won't be able to stop at half a dozen each anyway. Strike a conversation with the master shucker Mr.Hollywood and have a wonderful time.

Boom boom shrimp , raw and charbroiled oysters , jambalaya , gumbo , étouffée , all fabulous. We got there at 6 and waited about 20 minutes. Any later and we could have easily waited more than an hour.

seems like they have been there forever. Usually a line out the door in the relatively small space. Food is great--had the crab and shrimp bisque and small po-boy. Great food!

Delicious! It's possible to get a table when it's pretty busy, although we were there on a weekday. Can't go wrong with chargrilled or raw oysters & the soft shell crab platter. Yum!

Amazing oysters , also the crab , wow, great service love to come back soon

The oysters are well worth the trip! Very busy, loud atmosphere, but the servers are pros at handling the large crowds and provide fantastic, speedy service.

Amazing chargrilled oysters ! I'm not an oyster fan but these were incredible. The line for a table can be daunting but it moves pretty quickly.

The shrimp po boy is phenomenal. Party of 9 didn't wait more than 20 minutes at one of the most popular places in town . Excellent food and a great atmosphere.

Not sure why this is more popular than Felix's across the street which is also excellent. Acme is crowded but good food. Expect a line .

The best place in NOLA! Order the chargrilled oysters and soft shell crab ! The wait to get in might be a minute.

Chargrilled Oysters and the Bananas Foster Cheesecake are to die for! They also have some of the best hurricanes around! Love this place, can't wait to go back!

In town for business and had the chargrilled oysters . They were absolutely amazing!!! Casual place to get some oysters at the bar for happy hour also.

My visit was quick. Raw oysters , grilled oysters & an oyster shooter . You can not go wrong with this place & service

Get the oyster poboy--earthy, meaty, & so stuffed with oysters that they almost tumble out. Or if indecisive get the Peacemaker (but you'll wish you had more of the oyster side ;))

Eat there early. Lines get ridiculous . Oysters are worth it though. Usually don't get raw but from this place I will. Chargrilled oysters are the best I've ever had!

Order the chargrilled oysters . Butter, garlic , Parmesan and Romano cheeses ! What could be better?

Want to get in quickly? Go solo and sit at the bar . Can't go wrong with chargrilled oysters , gumbo and half a po'boy. Don't forget some Abita beer .

Chargrilled oysters are a MUST! Seafood étouffée is also great, the small is plenty of food and adding the crawfish tails is worth it!

The oysters were fantastic we had them raw and grilled with garlic butter they were wonderful. The place is very loud and if there is a sign saying private party expect an hour+ wait

They have the best Chargrilled Oysters and Po’ Boys in New Orleans. I highly recommend Acme.

Chargrilled oysters gave me chills, they were so good! Seafood étouffée also highly recommended. If you like seafood , Acme is a must!

Went for the grilled oysters they were very good, I asked the locals? who serves good grilled oysters , was told Dragos in the Hilton guys once we had them we can't go anywhere else.

The fried peacemaker Po' boy was very good, but it's the chargrilled oysters that are the star of the show. Order as many of them as you can stomach.

Try the Peacemaker ! Gumbo is fantastic also! Wait is pretty long but definitely worth it!

Hard to beat the charbroiled oysters . A New Orleans staple. The line moves quick

don't care how long the line is - go and get the chargrilled oysters , balanced with some raw oysters and a poboy . it. will. be. worth. it.

The best Chargrilled oysters I've ever had. Don't let the line out the door fool you, if you have a small party you'll get in quickly.

chargrilled oysters , po boys , red beans & rice , new orleans sampler, peach cobbler , boo fries with roast beef gravy and cheese , étouffée , lines move quickly
