“ The restaurant is much larger than it first appears. The dining room is rather good size, and then there is an outside patio out back, which is twice as large. The food was great. Chicken & waffles and Irish Coffee were all delicious. Very yummy. Service was okay and excellent at the same time. The server/food runner brought our food but forgot to bring the maple syrup and took a few minutes to return with a "necessary" item, but the someone else (kitchen staff ?) brought another piece of chicken without us saying anything because they didn't feel like we had received our proper portion. ”
“ Came here for brunch with some friends and Kayla was the most attentive and sweetest server! She made sure we didn’t see the bottom of our glasses for bottomless mimosas. Thank you to Aubrey, the manager, for also checking on us. Great vibes and food as well ”
“ The food and atmosphere was perfect for Sunday Funday! So much fun and the breakfast burger was so good. The bottomless mimosas were a plus. Can’t wait to visit again. ”
“ Hands down one of the best meals I’ve ever had in New Orleans. Excellently spiced and expertly prepared and drinks were great too. I especially love the atmosphere and the decoration. ”
“ This place was super busy, and the manager, Remy, took care of us from start to finish. The food was amazing, some of the best we had all weekend. It came out hot, fresh, and large portions. The blackened shrimp/chicken with jambalaya was superb! My husband's fried shrimp poboy was amazing and huge with garlic fries. They were the best. We had more food than we could eat. Remy was absolutely the best and runs a great place. It's definitely a loud, friendly vibe but holy cow, if you pass this up, you are losing out on a hidden jem. Our drinks were well worth the money as there was no lack of alcohol in them. We will be back! ”
“ We were looking for an outdoor patio that was out of the French Quarter craziness and this was perfect. It was laid back, relaxing with great service and food. SHOUT out to our waitress Don who was terrific! We had the shrimp tacos.. amazing flavors! They also came with black beans and rice and some of the best greens I have ever had. Everything was a great blend of Baja and creole southern. ”
“ The food was phenomenal, the atmosphere was chill and fitting, the service (Ty) was excellent!! I'm so glad that I found this place on my trip here. I'd definitely visit again. One thing I must say is each one of the sauces that I had were so good. ”
“ After a long day of traveling and checking into the fantastic Higgins Hotel, my partner and I were craving something convenient, delicious, and not too far a trek. Flamingo A-Go-Go popped up as a mere 0.1 miles away with good reviews, so we decided to give it a shot – and boy, are we glad we did! We were truly pleasantly surprised by every aspect of our experience. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was inviting and lively, loved the music playing! But what truly stood out was the service. Our server, Trenecia, was an absolute gem. She was incredibly friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu. Her suggestions were absolutely on point. She guided us through the menu with such enthusiasm, making it tough to choose because everything sounded so good! We started with her recommendations of the boudin balls and also got some hush puppies. They arrived piping hot and packed with flavor – the perfect start to our meal. For our main courses, I went with the Flamingo Shrimp Alfredo, and it was a creamy, flavorful dream with perfectly cooked shrimp. My husband opted for the Shrimp A-Go-Go PoBoy with onion rings, and he raved about the freshness of the shrimp and the delicious sauce. The onion rings were tasty, too. Everything tasted incredibly fresh and was absolutely delicious, clearly made with care. Even though we were getting full, Trenecia sweetly suggested we try the Kalauha Chocolate Mousse Cake for dessert, and we’re so glad we listened! It was the perfect decadent end to a fantastic meal – rich, smooth, and just sweet enough. We left feeling completely satisfied and already making plans to return. We're definitely coming back during our trip to try the redfish, which Trenecia also highly recommended. If you're staying near the Higgins Hotel or just looking for an amazing meal with incredible service in New Orleans, Flamingo A-Go-Go is an absolute must-visit! ”
