Bayou, Staten Island NY

Absolutely amazing experience! The gumbo I had for the appetizer? ! To die for. The apple crumb dessert? Incredibly delicious, the staff was so sweet and welcoming and cannot wait to go back and try even more food on their menu.

Amazing New Orleans inspired food. From top to bottom, everything was delicious. Excellent drinks menu. The staff was very friendly and attentive. They hosted us, a group of 12, comfortably. I'm definitely planning to return.

Very cozy place, great choice for a romantic date or dining solo; friendly and attentive staff, delicious meals. New Orleans atmosphere reproduced in 100%. Music well chosen. Ten stars out of five! Will definitely come back again, and recommend the place to my friends.

Great Service! Ricky is amazing. Ordered an appetizer, a side, 3 entrees, a pitcher of sangria and our bill came to approximately $200

Crab cakes were more breading than crab and I wouldn't order again for that price

We loved our dinner at Bayou. Clearly a very talented chef - our meals were superb. Great service too. A must if you’re visiting Staten Island

I just moved to Staten Island and was looking for a place that was different. I definitely found it! The food, the service, and the atmosphere were absolutely fantastic. Freddie, our waiter was great! He was right there if we needed him, yet did not hover. I felt like I was on vacation. The choice of music was great. We will definitely be back!

Wonderful place on the North Shore of Staten island. The service is great and the food is carefully prepared and delicious.

Awesome food and good drinks with a nice cozy atmosphere. Been going here for a while. It makes sense they're still open. Great spot.

Food, service, and atmosphere were all excellent. We ate outside, had the Bourbon Rib appetizers, which fell off the bone. My hubby had the seafood gumbo and I had Frisse Salad. Both were delicious huge portions. We had espresso, banana cheesecake and chocolate mousse for dessert. All scrumptious. Second or third time there. Everything is always on point.

It’s our favorite restaurant on Staten Island. Great food, excellent service and cozy ambiance!

I really like this restaurant, takes me back to the Big Easy in NOLA (without the airfare). Make reservations as the dining area inside has downsized. It looks like they added an outdoor dining area, but still make reservations.

It's a neighborhood bar and restaurant, and so we thought we could explore the place for the first time. There's another table with 2 customers like my friend and myself. The interiors were interesting. It's small and comfortable. Pretty even. They have alligator meat on the menu, if I recall it right. We will probably do it the next time we come here. I was happy with the beef meal I had. Service was OK.

Great atmosphere, Great food. I am addicted to the Sweet Potato Fritters & The Avocado Fries.

Lovely hidden gem! Food was good and the atmosphere is divine. Al Fresco dining a available. Great prices.

If you like seafood and strong drinks this is the place! Their mojitos are banging. Clams, mussels and shrimp all delectable - the mains were slightly better than the apps but all in all, tasty food and great service. Highly recommend.

Loved the atmosphere. We were greeted by Maureen. It was our first time there and we were not familiar with the menu and she was very helpful with the menu and took her time with us. We are from New Jersey and we absolutely loved it and will be coming back again! Everything beyond amazing!

The food never disappoints! Excellent service, cute date spot, or good for a small group. Worth the trek to Staten Island.

Great food and atmosphere, definitely feels like you've stepped off of Staten island for a bit

Great Staten Island restaurant. Food is well thought out and everyone was really pleased with what they got. We were all impressed by how well made the sides were as well. They complimented the dishes extremely well.
