Alright, strap in. This food is a mouth orgasm. Birra tacos and the house steak tips. T was our server and he was great too, super friendly. But back to the food- the tacos were so flavorful and crispy without being spicy(and I'm sensitive to spice). The steak tips were so tender it was like the cow got a massage every day before being put on my plate. The sauce was similar to a pot roast sauce. The potatoes? UGH YES-home made mashed! Fresh! They were a little dry but the sauce just made them perfect. They had home alone up on the TVs so it was great atmosphere.I do want to add the hostess was borderline unfriendly. She didn't greet us and was on her phone the whole time.

I want to like this place because it’s close by and the foods pretty good but honestly the service is so bad I won’t even go for the $1 oysters anymore.

As much as I wanted to….. and this being the First time ever considering trying Orleans, since I’ve heard so much about it… So, on Nov 27th - at 11:01pm, called the restaurant trying to place a quick pick up order. This man picks up and obnoxiously shouts “the kitchen closed two hours ago” and hangs up. What a way to serve a Customer!

A Davis square classic! I used to come here with friends for the karaoke on Saturday nights, and now years later always make an effort to return when I'm back in town. The food is good, the servers are attentive, the prices are reasonable, and the atmosphere is relaxed but fun. Whether you're just grabbing a drink or wanting a meal, this is a great option while in Davis. Nothing fancy but not a dive.

Hot tea selection was good and quality. Blackened fish tacos were too marred in black, probably not tilapia or quality white fish. Cauliflower seemed great. Bean & rice side was healthy and surprisingly refined. Fried calamari were fresh and not chewy. Server split our check easily and service was prompt and attentive on a friday night, though restaurant/bar was not full. Many patrons only drink.Parking: Close to Davis square. Expect to pay meter till 8pm, otherwise all is permit. No parking lot for restaurant.

The atmosphere here on game days is great. The Orleans Burger was great and the chicken tenders were cooked perfectly as well.

The place was great, good drinks, great atmosphere, the music was good but wasn't too loud. The bartender seemed to actively be ignoring us, though. We'd try to get his attention and he would look anywhere but at us. We didn't feel welcome.
The food was pretty good. We got the Mac and cheese and sweet potato waffle fries. Both came out fresh and hot. The waiter was a little rude and didn't ever check in on us after we got our food. In fact, the host was more helpful than the waitress. When you pay, they bring over a device and you have to do the tip right there in front of the waiter. Wasn't gonna give as much as a tip as I did until then. There was trivia that night so that was fun. Would definitely come back if it weren't for the waiter.

T was our server, and he was awesome. Food was yummy (got the Brussels, the Orleans burgers w/ truffle fries, and the fried chicken bowl), and we got a great Shirley temple! 10/10 (or 5/5 I guess). Plus AC!

The food was great, we had the Buffalo Chicken Crispy Dumplings and the Baja Turkey Burger with a side of Nola Seasoned Fries. This is a wicked combination, a rollercoaster ride of herbs and spices. Accompanied with a Spicy Watermelon Margarita and a Spicy Mule, the night ended with a blast of flavor. Definitely coming back!

this has been a classic Davis spot for a while .... but it has gone in a weird direction. the quality of the food is really variable these days and it's astronomically expensive for what it is. I had a salad last night and added grilled chicken for $6. I got exactly six skinny, thin, dry, flavorless pieces of overcooked chicken. I couldn't help imagining eating a dollar with each one ...,the servers there are ALWAYS kind and attentive and super friendly with little kids. and the patio is a great spot in the summer. but my weird $25 salad and my friend's super dry, thin Turkey burger for $19 has us looking for a new spot. and since it was awkwardly empty on a Friday evening .... I feel like I may not be the only one.

Their food was really good and their servers were nice and I'd never been to that town before out of Somerville they have a lot of nice eating establishments around there met some nice karaoke singers but I felt like the karaoke hosts both of them were either very unorganized or partial to whoever they had singing up there because most of us only got one song while others got about three or four songs at the same time we were there! If you enjoy karaoke this is not the place to go! Take it from someone who is experienced in karaoke music and karaoke hosts! I guarantee you I will never go back there again! ??
