Basin Seafood and Spirits

“The crawfish pupusas brought us in, but the service, and every other thing we had was so good. The beet salad will change your life, trust me. Definitely going to be making this a go to spot when I'm in the city”

“Incredibly friendly staff in a quaint family-run restaurant. We went for happy hour for some quality Spanish wine to pair with their delicious New Orleans dishes. The coconut crusted red snapper was probably the best dish of our trip. The pic is a half portion since we split, so don’t get it twisted - it’s plenty of food!”

“Such a great spot if you’re looking for some good food, service and drinks! They offer a great twist on some of the favorites such as crab beignets which is nothing like what you would think when craving beignets. These were so light, fluffy and filled with crab goodness! The blue crab claws were also amazing! Tender pieces of claw meat always shelled and easy to eat. The pupusas were also another hit with the crawfish! And the potatoes that came paired with the omelet stole the show! Large pieces of baked potatoes, so crispy and well seasoned! You have the choice of sitting outdoor or indoor and even at the bar. It just opened when we went so the service was quick! Highly recommend!!”

“Got a seat at the bar for an early dinner. Bartender was lovely but not well-informed on food allergies. I asked if the fries were safe for gluten allergies and asked about cross contamination, and she said there's no cross contamination at their restaurant because they make their fries straight from potatoes (lol). My charbroiled oysters - which I'd ordered with request for no bread - then arrived with bread atop the oysters, and it seemed clear she hadn't checked with the kitchen or relayed my allergies. So everything looked great but I couldn't trust that any of the food was safe for me.”

“Great food, great service and a friendly staff. We had marked Basin Seafood on Google maps because it looked and sounded good, and it certainly was. We had Blue Crab Beignets (wonderful), Crawfish Queso (very good but could use more crawfish) and a couple drinks. We went for a few items on the Happy Hour menu since we had a dinner planned elsewhere later. If we had more days in town, it would be great to have dinner here.”
