We love Clesi's for boiled seafood because it's spicy without burning your lips, never too salty, and everything peels without a struggle.

Try Vietnamese-style crawfish loaded with garlic butter at BOIL on popular Magazine Street. Flavor in every bite, tender, juicy.

Jason Seither's epic boils are best accompanied by live local music and ice cold beer. It's a funky seafood joint that delivers.
