I went to the one in Denham Springs not too long ago. If you go, go on the 23rd of the month. Buy a tshirt for $10 and get buy 1 get 1 free on the 23rd of every month provided you are wearing the shirt. The food is not terrible. The shrimp was not overcooked and peeled nicely.

You must be a black person according to some people that responded to this thread.

Thanks for your honest input

It's amazing how the well the traffic flows when the Zipper merge is preformed correctly. You should give a try!

One of the benefits of living in south Louisiana is that we have excellent restaurants that serve fresh local seafood.

True.

It's not a national chain. The corporate headquarters are in Lafayette, LA. Apparently The Fiery Crab is Lafayette's answer to Red Lobster based on some of the responses to my OP.

From what I gather from the responses its a place that caters to black people. If that is true why open up in Covington?

I looked at the menu, it's not exactly cheap.

What part of LaPlace did you live? If you don’t mind me asking. My life path crosses those parts.

I only lived in LaPlace for 10 years. I have been on the Northshore for over 20 years. I grew up in Shreveport.

When I lived in LaPlace I lived near Ascension.

Should I give it a try? What makes it better the all of the other seafood restaurants we have in the Northshore?

ETA. I have no idea about this place and that's why asked. I don't get why people down vote a question about a restaurant asked on the Food and Drink board. Seemed like the perfect place to inquire. I would have been better off asking the OT.

Roise Joe's wasn't bad. Spirits is a local favorite and so is the Pizza place down the street a block or two.

I saw him play at the Veterans Park amphitheater in 1984 in Shreveport. I wish I could have seen him at Humpfree's in 81. Friends that were there those nights said it was incredible.

It's not the descendants of the men and women that strived to get there. They are not the problem. It's the millions that follwed once the west was tamed. Especially the ones that wanted to be in pictures.
