Zimmer's Seafood

My favorite, local, neighborhood spot for the best, authentic nola seafood. They always have the best, FRESH seafood to choose from - love their boiled crabs, fresh shrimp for my Nola dishes. The best hands down boiled crawfish during the season (in my opinion ) - you can taste all the spices and ingredients. When you can get them you should try their marinated crab claws. Now if you want the cooked food you can't go wrong with anything on the menu. You can call ahead and place your order or just go in. Service is always great and always gives me the true Nola family vibes. It's truly a GEM & staple in the community for sure. The po boys and seafood plates are the best and they cook them all fresh on the spot - that's why I love them and the level of service they provide.

Prices were doubled from the menu I saw online. My husband got a trio plate I got 1/2 n 1/2 catfish shrimp. Can get equal/ better quality at a bodega or comer store for better value per dollar. Crabby thing was good but not very pretty. No eat in option. No inclination on the part of the employees to provide customer service. They are a fish market too. Likely wouldn't return. Initially wanted to try because I heard the bakery behind did the bread. The bread was not blue ribbon winning but it was tasty.

My first "authentic" Po'Boy experience in New Orleans. I had a shrimp po'boy and to be honest, it was underwhelming. I think my expectations may have been too high. I wanted more flavor; it was just fried shrimp inside of delicious, soft french bread. The remoulade had flavor but there wasn't much nor was it evenly distributed across the sandwich. A friend recommended this place, next time I'll try another restaurant. Be prepared for a long wait!

We were in town for a week and I needed some crawfish for a seafood avocado salad that I was going to make. Sadly after leaving my two dogs and my boyfriend in the truck for quite a while because the line was so long that I had to abandon my mission here. The line was super long for such a simple place the food to go must be crazy good.

Boiled Seafood Boiled CrawfishI personally got the catfish I wish I would have gotten the potato salad but I forgot

I love this place oyster sandwich was delicious. Would definitely be going back. Seafood plate was amazing, so good. Wanted gumbo but they were sold out.

They Got Some Good PoBoys Fr. It Didn't Take Long To Receive My Food. It's A Lil Hole In The Wall Spot

This is a very small neighborhood place where you order at the counter and take it to go. Parking lot on the side and in front of the restaurant. The staff was very friendly. I was quite surprised by the prices - just as high as anywhere else in New Orleans. We had the shrimp poboy, crab cake poboy, and roast beef poboy. The crab cake poboy was all stuffing and no crab. The fried shrimp were chewy and not fresh/crisp. The roast beef poboy was good. The bread didn't taste fresh and had sesame seeds on it (and they are literally next to a bread bakery). Even though they are very close to where we live, we will drive further to get better poboys.

Best catfish plate ever. Hot and Perfectly crispy. A must try if you are in town. Great service
