Experience the real French Quarter at Shrimp Boil Cabaret
Step away from the tourist crowds and join us for a private dinner party celebrating the flavors and sounds of the Quarter. The Shrimp is sourced from local shrimping families at their boat docks a few hours before your shrimp boil to choose the largest, freshest, wild-caught local shrimp available. Mister Gregory, "The Shrimp Boil King of New Orleans" grew up in the Gulf South shrimping and boiling and advocating for wild-caught Gulf Shrimp and the "eat it to save it" culinary approach. Please join us for live local music and a lovely dinner party, make some new friends and eat the very best shrimp in the world.

Such a great time! Mr. Gregory was wonderful. An intimate dining experience where each dish is explained and such thought and care was put into the menu. We filled up on the food before the shrimp even arrived! Come hungry because it is more food than you can imagine! The entertainment was colorful and so much fun! 10/10 would recommend and will do again when we come back to New Orleans!

I'm in town for a conference and decided to book this on a whim - I am SO glad that I did! You meet at a bar next door first (Le CaBARet), which was nice because you can begin mingling with other attendees. Thankfully I saw on a review that the name had recently changed from Grand Pre, but I think some of the group was a bit confused.
Then, Mr. Gregory gathers everyone and you go directly next door. It's family style seating, and we had a really good group, so it worked well. There were people from all over and one couple was doing it for a second time because they had loved it so much!
The food is amazing, and Mr. Gregory gives background information on all of the dishes, which was really cool. He is incredibly friendly and inviting! The first few items are tasting portion (and delicious), but the shrimp boil is plentiful (we couldn't finish)!
The performers were absolute stars! It was such a cool show, and they were also super friendly.
Overall, it was a great time and I'm so glad I did it! It was my first night in New Orleans, and given that I'm traveling solo, it was a great way to meet people and it was a really unique experience - basically a dinner party with strangers. It felt very different from your typical tourist "excursion." I really can't recommend it enough.
