HIEUX Boil Seafood House

We went in last night before they were closing. The service and food was good. I love New Orleans style food and no one can compare on the flavor. Our waitress was very sweet and food came out fast. I’d go back

My experience at Hieux Boil Seafood was quite mediocre. While the seafood was decent, it didn’t stand out in a city known for its culinary excellence. Both the Oysters and Seafood boil was very salty. I’m sure my blood pressure and cholesterol was very high when we left. The prices seemed a bit high for the quality and portion sizes. Also, the 11.75% service charge and the non-cash charge is ridiculous and highway robbery.
What was more disappointing, though, was the service. The staff appeared disorganized, and our order took longer than expected. It seemed like there was a lack of communication between the kitchen and the front of house. The waitstaff, while somewhat friendly, didn’t seem well-informed about the menu and it took some effort to get their attention.
Overall, Hieux Boil Seafood didn’t leave a lasting impression, and I felt that there are better seafood options in New Orleans both in terms of food quality and service.

This is the place for NOLA Seafood!
We recently visited New Orleans and we had a severe hankerin' to try a seafood boil. We wanted the crawfish and shrimp the way we've seen them served up on TV food shows. I asked some locals for recommendations and they send us here and I am glad they did. It was a rainy, super humid (no surprise) day, but we really enjoyed being able to sit outside on the covered deck. The Bar Menu is extensive with average priced drinks. I opted for a ice cold beer to get me going. The food menu is large and has the expected PO-Boys and seafood baskets, appetizers, soups, salads and seafood prepped multiple ways. My attention was focused on the Boils and Buckets. Ask your server to explain how the boils are ordered. They also can tell you about the flavors and heat levels. What a hard decision! For the Buckets, you can choose from a variety of combos of seafood and extras. For the Boils, you select your seafood(s) in one pound increments, your flavor and then your heat (spice) level. My wife selected one pound of headless ($4 upcharge over head-on) in Garlic Butter and Low Heat, with a Side Caesar Salad ($6.75). I selected 2 pounds of crawfish and one pound of headless shrimp, in Boil House flavor and Medium heat. Then it happened! Servers brought out the salad and large metal pans loaded with seafood goodness covered our table. The aromas were to die for! My wife's salad was loaded with all the usual components of a Caesar salad with plenty of cheese. The perfectly flavored garlic butter shrimp are peel on, but easy to peel and comes with drawn butter for dipping. My crawfish and shrimp (also peel on) were combined and the spice blend was perfect. A side platter was provided for shells. My order would have been plenty for two people, but I ate it all. Some say it takes too much work to eat crawfish, but I enjoyed every moment. A lot of finger lickin' took place. We were so glad to have experienced this and recommend you also try it if you've never had it.

We visited HIEUX Boil seafood house for dinner on 7/4 in New Orleans, LA. Several members of our family group of 10 wanted to get seafood boils, so we found this restaurant. They were able to accommodate our family group of 10 easily. The food was delicious! Our server, Kenny was awesome! I would highly recommend this restaurant to everyone that visits the New Orleans area!

The food was great and so was the service. I ate outside on the patio with my daughters. We have appteizers first and then our main courses. The music was just right, and the food was hot and well seasoned with great presentation. I would definitely go again. The oysters were amazing, I had the herb charbroiled oysters. They also had great cocktails and mocktails!!! It's not easy to find a place that caters to those of us who do not drink as well as those who do. Check it out. You won't regret it.
