Ralph & Kacoo’s is a little too “touristy” for the locals, but a fun first-time visitor experience.

You won’t find too many New Orleanians who drive to the French Quarter to eat at Ralph & Kacoo’s, even though the seafood is not bad. This is not a place for a quiet, relaxing dinner. Expect crowds, a wait for a table, and lots of kids running around making a joyful noise. However, the freshness and consistency at this French Quarter seafood house are evident in the broiled and fried fish, peppery shrimp boiled in their shells, fried oysters and crawfish etouffée (served only during crawfish season). The ambitious menu offers everything from steaks and fried seafood to pastas, lobster dishes and strictly Louisiana fare, such as deep-fried alligator. Dessert is typical for New Orleans---bread pudding or cheesecake. A big bar is dominated by a full-size fishing boat hull, and the dining rooms are festooned with a hodgepodge of nostalgic clutter. The wine list is several pages long, and while serviceable, offers no real standouts.

Ralph & Kacco's (French Quarter) the best seafood and st
by brigitte on 09/17/2010
 
As soon as my family and I entered the restuarant Ralph and Kacoos we was greeted by a wonderful woman named Susanne. She greeted us and brought us to our table. She gave us our menus and announced who would be serving us that evening. We had a birthday and she made sure that we was announced and they sang to us. She often walked over to :) that we was happy and if there was anything she could do to :). As well as the manager on the floor. Mike was very well spoken and we enjoyed our evening. the food was excellent and our waiter Blake went out of his way to provide excellent service for the evening. I will remain a customer at ralph and kacoos they make you feel right at home. Susanne and Mike thanked us for coming and asked us to return.
