Hi I come to NOLA every couple of years and pretty much eat oysters at ACME. Is there another terrific spot to sit around and have oysters that are just as good? My dad likes Felix’s but I like ACME better. I once heard... (7 replies, last updated by JR October 12, 2004)

I loved Acme. I don’t know about sitting at a table and all that jazz, but if you grab a seat at the oyster bar (not the regular bar), order some Dixie beer, and just let the shuckers keep on shucking, you’ll never... (8 replies, last updated by Dave Feldman March 8, 2000)

If you are not eating oysters, Acme is the place to go — better atmosphere too. If you were eating oysters, Felix’s is better hands down. (2 replies, last updated by Jess January 9, 2005)

Acme v. Mike Anderson’s. Which are better? Have been going to Mike’s past 4 trips to NO for their Sun – Thurs, 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. 25 cents oysters. Are Acme's raw oysters better? Thanks. (4 replies, last updated by kdub October 22, 2003)

The Bourbon House, on the corner near Acme and Felix’s, has great baked and raw oysters (with or without caviar). The place doesn’t smell like fried food either. (3 replies, last updated by JJ April 6, 2005)

Oysters— go straigt to Swan’s on Polk near California. I usually go on the weekend and have to wait an hour but you might be alright today if they are open. They have all kinds of oysters. It’s a real rustic... (10 replies, last updated by BillP November 5, 2003)

sauce is ordinary but oysters this fresh should never come near tail sauce anyway (only a little squeeze of lemon) - not especially cheap but unsurpassed for quality – nearly as funky an ambiance as acme in new orleans (8 replies, last updated by Peter September 24, 2005)

specials. I also like the fact that Acme makes a point of serving sustainable seafood. Nice, particularly at a steakhouse. Four of us shared: A few miyagi oysters; yum, though the mignonette on the side was forgettable. I rarely... (7 replies, last updated by susancinsf July 9, 2008)

and an overall pleasant experience. The bill for the three of us was $132.00, excluding tip. On Sunday night we tried Acme Oyster House, it had the longest line of any restaurant I saw in the quarter and that usually means good... (4 replies, last updated by funk504 November 5, 2003)

Yes, I was there one afternoon last week. Had the spinach salad with fried oysters. I thought it was a bit pricey, but some of the best fried oysters of the trip. My husband had the char grilled and they were not as good as acme. (8 replies, last updated by DJ Joe April 23, 2009)
