The bread! Soft shell crab and that sauce they use is delish. Try the drum fish. Don't forget to ask your server about the history of the restaurant.
Mike StrockoMarch 17, 2013
K-Paul's two signature dishes are the blackened beef tenders and the blackened Louisiana drum fish. You can get BOTH in an off-the-menu surf and turf combo.

Gumbo is the best I ever tried !!! The place is really casual , and don’t be surprised if you are served with styrofoam utensils, it’s part of the experience. Long story short THE FOOD IS GREAT !!

Experience a premiere chef restaurant without busting your wallet; go for the deli lunch. Grab a seat, order at the bar & the food is brought to you on styrofoam plate. Bread pudding is a must!

The Louisiana Blackened Drum and the lightly battered fried seafood over eggplant are out of this world. Their seasonings are truly special. Portions are generous and service was extraordinary.

Try the Cajun surf & turf - blackened drum and a small beef filet with debris sauce. Ask for it because It's not on the menu. So good!

Possibly the best meal I've had from start to finish. Started w/ fried oysters w/ a Brie cream sauce. Entree: if you don't get the blackened drum then you've made a mistake. Bread pudding dessert FTW

The blacken beef with debris is absolutely amazing. Also can't go wrong with the eggplant or gumbo. Everything in the menu is delicious, you can't make a bad choice here!!!

Okay, I have had some really great meals in my life. My dinner at K-Paul’s is actually the best of them all. Every course perfect. Execution, ore ration. Flavor, baby flavor. Nothing can compare!!!

Veal with Oyster and Scallop Cream sauce was phenomenal! Had the red velvet bread pudding for desert and it was amazing! Will return next time I am in New Orleans!
Robert EnglishAugust 10, 2013
This is still one of my favorite restaurants in New Orleans. They have some fine dishes, including an excellent gumbo, turtle soup and the tastiest frog legs I've ever had.

The blackened chicken and jambalaya plate is delicious. The chicken is spicy and moist and the jambalaya is dark and smoky. Just don't try to eat it all; it took me 18 hours to eat again.

The blackened beef tenders were so good! Any beef you can cut with a butter knife even though its an inch thick is a win! The reduction...all I can say is WOW...

Invented Blackened Redfish in 1982. Paul Prudhomme only had room in the kitchen to cook with black skillets, in which he seared a well-seasoned redfish in butter.

So much food! Entrees come with an app and dessert. Menu changes daily. Order light: the delicious bread basket will fill you up! Got the bisque and avocado shrimp salad - good and I'm stuffed!
Jenny MackintoshMay 17, 2013
The blackened drum was so good, it gave me an out-of-body experience. That also could have been the accompanying cocktail. Regardless, order the blackened drum.
Valerie NDecember 27, 2014
Oh. My. Goodness! The menu changes daily, but my fried green tomatoes and veal were amazing!
Ofir OvadiaSeptember 21, 2017
The drum and beef combo is amazing. Need to ask for it, as it’s not in the menu
Kent VergeDecember 3, 2011
You won't want to pass up the blackened drum. I was literally having dreams about it ever since booking the reservation, and we hadn't eaten here for twelve years. Yes, it's that good!
Sylvie AbecassisSeptember 11, 2013
That blackened drum is incredible! Also glad we took Yvette the bartender's advice about thr fried green tomato with shrimp and remoulade.
Esther LudlowApril 29, 2014
Best meal I had in New Orleans! Don't miss desserts either. Save room - the portions are huge! Great service.

Lunch is very good but dinner is spectacular! I recommend the flounder.... So, so good.
Katie Benjamin SteedApril 2, 2013
Been here 5+ times
Try K-Paul's lunch! It was a great value, and by far the best meal I ate while visiting New Orleans.
Mike ChauDecember 29, 2012
Try the Warm Bread Basket - Awesome. Five different kinds of bread, all nice and hot, and in unlimited supply
RebeccaOctober 28, 2011
When in NoLa you MUST have lunch or dinner here at least once. Amazing every time. A pure slice of New Orleans cuisine via Cajun country.
HRH Green BeerMarch 12, 2011
Get there early because when they finish serving lunch they close the doors. Visit every time I'm in NOLA. Mmmm Good.
Оксана МихайленкоSeptember 6, 2018
Amazing kitchen!!! You need to taste it all)))
Greg JonesApril 23, 2013
Always outstanding. Probably the best food in the Quarter, but make a reservation for dinner!
Randy RosenbergDecember 20, 2013

Turtle soup, blackened fish and bread pudding were all outstanding
Sara BallOctober 18, 2012
Hands down best bread pudding EVER. If only pictures had taste buds.
Priya TungrusAugust 25, 2015
Jumbalaya - to die for! The portions are huge, stick to just a main course.
Marie LaCassaAugust 20, 2011
The BEST restaurant in the French Quarter by far. Everything on the menu is divine. Ask to sit upstairs.

There’s strong potential to stuff yourself to the breaking point before the actual meal on K-Paul’s homemade breads - so savory the Pillsbury Dough Boy will be cowering in the corner while you munch. Read more
Daryl DaleyApril 9, 2012
Don't be scared of the frog legs, yum!! Also the fried green tomatoes and jambalaya were perfection.
Emily WarrenSeptember 23, 2014
Amazing blackened drum. It's charred, spicy buttery goodness melted in my mouth.
Alexis AndersonJune 23, 2010
Order the fried green tomatoes, and save the jalapeno buns from the bread basket to mop up the sauce.
Josh MateoOctober 19, 2015
Jambalaya is a must have. Sharing is caring especially when the serving size is enormous. 💪🏼
Greg LackeyJune 24, 2016
Little pricey but great food. Lunch is the way to go.
Erica SantiagoNovember 8, 2015
So delicious, must try to blackened stuffed pork-chops!
