Restaurants near Big Branch Marsh National Wildlife Refuge

My wife, son, and I visited while on vacation for our 15th anniversary (wife and I of course, son is 5). Food was amazing and the staff were great. The history of the Bananas Foster makes the sugary dish even better… a must visit when in New Orleans.

Only bad thing it was freezing cold! Our server did not tell us about the 3 course lunch specials. We heard the server at the next table but it was too late because we had already ordered. The food was excellent and our server was very nice.

This was a very good experience for my son’s birthday….Great food, service and ambience.

We had a wonderful meal. Our table was near the door and the bar which likely contributed to the noise level. I would have preferred to be in the traditional dining room.

Went for their New Year's Day brunch buffet. Everything we tried was very good. Sweet and savory - bread pudding, creme brulee french toast, ham-n-cheese eggs, bacon, shrimp pasta, corned beef & cabbage, shrimp & grits, prime rib, smoked pork loin, country style ribs, boiled shrimp, salad items, desserts, waffles and much more...$45 per person plus 18% gratuity at all tables. A glass of champagne or mimosa was included. Water glasses were kept full by our friendly and attentive server. Also given free small beignets to take home. It may be a little pricey for some budgets, but I highly recommend Palmetto's! Go hungry and you'll still struggle to taste all their tasty offerings. We sat where a Jazz musician played "outside" and it was very comfortable with the beauty of the bayou outside. A+ experience overall.
