Kingfish

Kingfish is an exciting cocktail bar and restaurant right in the historic French Quarter.  Offering a unique selection of perfectly blended libations, paired with a menu that includes a myriad of delicious selections, this is an establishment where you will find locals and visitors alike. 

To start off any meal, an original cocktail is a must.  The Absinthe Suissesse is an obvious choice, a delicious mixture of Legendre Herbsaint, Orgeat, Cream, and Egg White.  For a more traditional New Orleans drink, try their take on the Pimm's Cup, a refreshing concoction, just perfect for those balmy, New Orleans evenings. 

And when hunger calls, this menu offers some of the best appetizers in the city, such as the Grilled Shrimp and Smothered Okra or the Bacon-Wrapped Stuffed Jalapeno. 

When you are ready to move on to the main course, the 14 ounce Ribeye can tame any large appetite.  And as the name implies, Kingfish truly excels in the seafood department.  The Seafood Cassoulet, a delightful blend of shrimp, fish, crawfish, and alligator with a cheese crust is beyond delicious. 

Whether you wish to stop in for an unforgettable cocktail, or you have Gulf Fish on your mind, this is the place to be!
