Great find for a seafood boil! We shared the plate between 2 people, but could probably feed 3-4. The corn was a great add on, garlic was well. We really liked the prawns, the crabs were a bit difficult to eat. Overall flavor was really good. Service was nice and the portions were generous.

What can I say? Jarvis and Deontay are two of my favorite people at Clesi's but everyone is so nice! That just makes the experience that much better because the food is out of this world!!! I'm sitting here holding my breath waiting for crawfish season to come back even though they're eight dollars a pound when you buy them from there! (let me tell you something because I am a habitual cheapskate when it comes to paying high prices for crawfish)! I simply refused to do it! that's it, I have found my kryptonite to be Jarvis's crawfish! Good Lord! Exactly the right amount of spice, flavor, and heat! They are fantastic! I also love their chicken sandwich, and fried onion rings the ones my grandma used to make! I'm sorry I don't have any pictures for y'all because I eat everything as soon as I get it! The burgers are good too, and I'm not really a big burger chick! Check it out! You won't be disappointed !

Clesi's is the perfect place to go get no frills, delicious, NOLA boiled seafood. The food is good and they have great specials throughout the week. The only reason I only gave 4 stars, is because they were short staffed bothe times we ate there. Do not expect anything fancy, but if you enjoy sitting on a casual patio to enhoy oysters on the half shell and a spicy seafood boil with a bucket of cold beer, this is the place to go!

Tasha has great music taste - great food and vibe - would come back in a heartbeat. Crawfish Alfredo mmmmmmm

This was our first stop on our trip and I'm glad I chose this spot. I was looking for legit crawfish and seafood boil and this place delivered just that. There's plenty of outdoor seating and they have plenty of napkins at the table and an outdoor handwashing station to deal with the aftermath. The small seafood boil was enough to feed 2 people. The crawfish were yummy and the shrimp were plump. Some of the shrimp were a little too mushy, though. They unfortunately didn't have blue crab available. The seasoning they used was good and not overpowering or too salty. My toddler didn't care for her fried catfish, but they were fresh and tasted good. I highly recommend this spot if you are looking for a seafood boil,

I have genuinely never had crawfish with this much flavor. I've had Cali versions like boiling crab where the sauce was a huge factor in flavor, but the way these were infused with the cajun seasoning was an experience. Great staff, clean and lots of good vibes. I'm super happy a friend recommended this as a spot to visit while in New Orleans. Highly recommend.

Loved the food, the vibe, the outdoor seating, the drinks and the neighborhood feel. A local friend of mine recommended this place and it was well worth the Uber out of the city. The drinks were strong, the crawfish was perfect, and I'm still dreaming about that indulgent crawfish mac & cheese. I have already recommended this place several times.

Food: *Boil Platter, we added Crawfish from the A La Carte menu We enjoyed the crawfish and boil platter (comes with 2 blue crabs, shrimp, corn, sausage, and potatoes) with our beer. Great hospitality and can't wait to come back!!

Hidden gem in mid city! Here for work trip and my friend decided to take me out. Y'all this place is def a hit! The crawfish so big and juicy. Very flavorful. The boudin bites was so good. Fresh out the pan. Sooo soo good! I def recommend y'all checking this place out!! The set up was kinda different. Like you have to order and pay then pick a table. Idk maybe it's just me. But the food made up for it!! Plenty of places to sit! They have a full bar. I was looking at all the entrees coming out. I will def be back to try those. I'm a tipper but I did t really like tipping and we didn't real get any waiter service. Just people running around dropping off food. We had to ask for papers towels and has to get our own water. But again the food made up for lack of service
