been there to try real Louisiana kitchen and were very pleased. I had the redfish with crabmeat and it was made to the point, tender and juicy with just the right seasoning. My wife had a seafood platter and was overwhelmed with the amount of food. Oysters, shrimp, filet of fish, crabmeat balls and a stuffed crab. Had to have a doggie bag, because it was just sooo much good food. Jaque, the owner, was extremely nice, like coming to friends. Then we came back the next day and were greated like family. I had the crawfish etouffee which was amazing. My wife had shrimp po boy, also very good. This is no fried shrimp po boy, but cajun shrimp, so it is different to what most people are used to. Even the chef came out of his kitchen to ask if everything was all right. We can only recommend this place for authentic Louisiana cooking.

I wanted to love this place bc it's so close to my grandmother's and mom apparently went to school with the owner. But it was really kinda meh. The service and hush puppies were great. And their portions are a good value. But I was underwhelmed by my crawfish- tasted only like liquid boil, no other flavor. And my grandmother's redfish was not only not blackened as described, but the crabmeat topping it was awful. It was like the cook just dumped it out of the tub from the grocery straight on top of the fish without seasoning it or heating it in the pan. And the longer it sat on the table, the smellier it got. My mom enjoyed her catfish. But I think if I ever went back, I'd probably stick to a poboy.

I wanted to try something new but was disappointed when I received my food. $20 for 4 thin strips of fish, 6 shrimp and an over cooked sweet potato. The quality of the food wasn't worth the price!

It is a very nice local seafood restaurant in Gretna, LA. The service was excellent. Barbara Ann, our waitress that evening, was so helpful and friendly. She recommended that I should try the fried catfish. It turned out that was the best fried catfish I have ever eaten. It was so crunchy and not greasy at all and the taste was heavenly. A week later, I am still thinking about the place. Unfortunately, I am back home in California now. Someday, if I ever have a chance to visit New Orleans again, I certainly will stop by at De-No again.

Will become a regular customer. Service was very attentive. Portions were plentiful and delicious. Interior is clean and well designed. If you live anywhere near Grenta, come here now.

This place was honestly disgusting. The food was horrible and even made me sick. The food was over seasoned and dry I got the grilled chicken and shrimp. The broccoli tasted like dirty water and the potato appeared to be a little old.

Ever since the new owner took over. The food in the place has gone down. Been twic since they have taken over just to give them the benefit of maybe I ate the wrong thing. The second time was worse than the first. First time I got a half shrimp and half oyster po boy. Well there was six very small shrimp on one side and six smaller oyster on the other and they both were raw. Second time ate the grilled fish with crab meat. It was dry as a bone. Won’t be going back

I showed up a little closer to closing time than I normally like to do at a restaurant but they were still super friendly and accommodating. Seafood was done well and large portions for reasonable price. Would definitely go back.

Really good seafood at really reasonable prices. Sometimes my home town can be a bit pricy if you dont venture out. I have probably passrf this place 100 tomes in my life and only today did we stop. Started with fried pickles and oysters and then proceeded to blackened red fish and crawfish. Will be back

We had the chargrilled oysters to start. They are awesome! They have garlic and butter, but the oysters aren't swimming in it. They have a nice char that make them extra tasty! We also had 6lbs of crawfish that were supremely delicious, seriously, they were the best I've had all season. We got 6 to take home. Michelle was a great server and so sweet to our son who didn't eat because he ate earlier. They have a decent beer selection and wine was ok. The only complaint (and it really wasn't a huge deal) was that they closed at 9. when we ordered the 2nd batch of crawfish we had to take them to go. I don't mind, but it would've been nice to sit there and finish our meal. I'll be back, just earlier next time!
