   Good location, serving was extremely slow and food was cold. Disappointment for the cost.

   Love the IPA beer. The food was just ok, but I loved the atmosphere and music.

   We had a Reviellion celebration dinner. We paired it with beers (unfortunately they were out of Pilsner.). We had a great time with wonderful service. Thank you.

   Subpar across the board. Food is average at best, not as good as say Red Lobster. Atmosphere was bleak, the staff sits at the bar and chats among themselves. Service borders on hostile. The live entertainment was a couple of guys, one of whom is either the owner or an employee, playing a couple of jazz standards and then quitting. It isn't really a sports bar either because there is only one TV behind the bar. Which brings us to the beer menu for which the restaurant is ostensibly centered around. I ordered a "West Coast IPA" and was delivered something more like a Maarzen or German black beer. Either the wrong beer was delivered or the brewers have no idea what a West Coast IPA is - hint: try Stone IPAs, they're the gold standard. I would have exchanged it, but our server never checked back.

   The food was AMAZING!!!! Emmitt was our server and he was very welcoming, attentive, helpful and even suggested some other nice places to check out while we were in New Orleans. He really made our experience very enjoyable. I will definitely be returning to Cresent City Brewhouse

   You would expect the food to be good since we are in New Orleans, but it was not. We ordered two dishes recommended by the waiter (the crawfish étouffée and the redfish). There were maybe three or four miniature shrimp in the étouffée and no other solids. The carrots with the redfish were not edible. A third dish, jambalaya, was also very light on the protein elements. The meals were $24 and up each. The live music was nice and the atmosphere was okay, albeit we were one of the few tables occupied. The overall experience should have been a great one, but the food and value were terrible, and we had an unwelcome surprise of a $7.95 service fee being added to the bill(we were a party of 5 and tip was still to be added). I am sure there are much better restaurants in New Orleans to spend your valuable vacation time at to get a higher quality experience.

   Start the meal with a great beer the add both the Crabmeat Hushpuppies and Boudin Egrolls. You could actually order from the appetizer menu & be perfectly satisfied. On our way out bartender noticed my husband looking at the beer vats upstairs, he stopped us gave us some history of the beer the building & some a sample. Great guy and pleasure to speak too!

   Steaks were sub par but I didn’t want to pay 80 bucks for a steak so we went there. Steaks were small. They say 12 oz pre cooked, more like 10-11…anyways, service was great. We live here and were there for a wedding. Love their beer choices.

    Waitress was sweet, beer flight was incredible, everything else was horrendous. Food came out relatively quick, but was lukewarm / cold. Had the New Orleans Trio BBQ shrimp tasted freezer burnt & grits were decent flavor but cold, jambalaya Orleans was extremely bland, Louisiana Crawfish Etouffee tasted like it was left out and forgotten about. Wild Mushroom Pasta was ok, but again lukewarm. Crabmeat Stuffed Shrimp was also horrible. The shrimp were rubbery, tasteless, while the crabmeat stuffed in tasted like stale and old. Funky…
