Nobile's Restaurant & Bar

Very popular place for locals. They seem to tolerate tourists but there are odd things about this place. Locals know to walk in and seat themselves but if you haven't been here before you'll walk in and stand near the door being largely ignored until you figure out that there is no sign saying seat yourself.The food is okay but it's nothing to write home about. The onion rings were mostly breading and very little onions. We had the shrimp and crab fettuccine and the shrimp were overcooked and mushy the pasta was overcooked and there didn't appear to be any crab in it at all. We also never got our salads with lunch and we had to ask for them.

Was passing through and saw this place. Surprised I have never heard about it before. Food and service was good! The building itself is amazing! The train passed by as we were eating, it felt like a step back in time, loved it. If the walls could talk, I’m sure the would have a lot of amazing stories to tell. I would have loved to have explored the beauty of the building.

Ya'll just don't know what you're missing! Nobile's is an iconic southern restaurant located just 1 block from the Mississippi River. Residents in St James Parish frequent this place weekly, as in individuals making it a place they visit to eat every week. Families are the main stay.They are known for several local dishes (ie: Butter Beans & Shrimp, Oysters, Crab Cakes, Specials.) Eating or drinking at massive antique bar is worth the experience. There is never a stranger in Nobile's, only someone you haven't met yet.Anyway, my absolute fav meal is the CHICKEN CAESAR SALAD WRAP with ONION RINGS with a friend. You get the whole salad in 2 wraps & their caesar salad dressing is homemade and worth the visit. It makes it perfect to share with a friend, too. Oh! The onion rings are homemade, too. Then to top it off ... another homemade item ... a layered pudding coconut cake topped meringue called BaBa.Tell 'em Sherett (from the White House) sent ya to try everything they have on the menu, especially the Chicken Caesar Salad Wrap, Onion Rings and BaBa! And they get GOLD STAR 🌟

Pork chop and cabbage, baked potatoes, green beans all very good. Taste like home cooking. The tea was very good also. Their sign is not up. If you haven’t been there before don’t get discouraged by the looks…Great and friendly service. Just seat yourself wherever and enjoy. Parking on both sides and handicap accessible. (Small French like double doors…may have to get help to open both) Very well stock bar also.

The Service started out Fast as it was beginning of Lunch crowds, but it slowly got real slow. Waitress took drink order but took long time to bring to table..Ordered off Lunch Menu hoping for Quick lunch...not the case-- ordered an Appetizer Crab cake w/ sauce...10min later crabcake arrived w no sauce. Had to ask for sauce, that took too long. Drinks came, Waitress Never returned to refill. By this time people poured in, standing outside, but some people would slowly drift into dinning room an stand by your table to watch & wait for you to finish ,so they can get your table--they even started conversations, I guess to hurry you along..I have NEVER been to establishment that allowed people into your area watching you eat and some would come take chairs from your table and wait near you? Highly Rude & Inappropriate practice. The Lunch special came, it was tasty ,but luke WARM, must have been plated soon as lunch special but near cold upon reaching table...The portions were small, so thus too overpriced..1 Crabcake was as much as Daily LUNCH Plate specials... It seemed to be the TRENDY place as was crowded ,but it wasn't ALL THAT. Things coming out of kitchen took long as everyone was waiting for their orders.

We came at the tail end of lunch . Greeted , seated, and ordered Friday's lunch special. Shrimp stew,large perfect fried catfish filet ,potato salad and choice from 2 desserts for a very decent price. Enjoyed speaking with the restaurant employees about the history of the place. A very spontaneous stop for lunch turned out to be a very enjoyable day. Thank you to the staff

We hadn't visited this restaurant in a while and since we'd liked it before we decided to go today. It has been spruced up a bit but not enough to lose its charm. If you are old enough to remember old homes and businesses that weren't glitzy but warm, rustic, and totally charming you'll love this place for atmosphere alone. Then add on good food like people used to cook at home and staff.....well they are mostly older and the younger ones really like us old folks. It shows in their attitudes. The staff wanders amoung the tables greeting old friends and regular customers with hugs. You feel as if you're in the middle of a large family gathering.As stated earlier, it has been awhile since we had been. But we'll not wait so long to go back. It is definitely worth the 45 minute drive for us.

To the unknowing eye of the out-of-towner, this hideaway looks like another abandoned building, but once you open that door, fall in that wellspring of a old southern charm and some of deep cajun cooking , you in for a real treat

Doesn't look like much from the outside and the decor inside... but, OMG, the food! Super busy with locals, so you know its good!

Wife and I stopped in for lunch. We had the special which was shrimp stew with fried catfish and potato salad. It was absolutely delicious. Not only is the food great but the atmosphere is amazing. This place was built in the 1800’s and has an amazing abeyance about it. If you are ever in Lutcher you MUST stop by

The waitress, Connie, was great. I had a lot of questions and she made sure to answer each one and double check with the cook. She was very attentive to our whole table. I don't like spices, their whole menu is based on the spices and the locals love it that way. They still found out that I could eat the steak or the chicken and I want to say it was delicious and the 4 other people who ordered Cajun dishes throughly enjoyed their spiced meal. I would definitely recommend this place. We were all pleased.

This was our first visit and a great experience by all measures. The food was excellent. We had a huge fried flounder, shrimp and crab pasta ...and baba for dessert, at our table.It's worth the drive and I definitely plan to go back.

We stopped in for dinner from out of town and loved this place. The crawfish pies are so so good, the sides are fun and regional as well,like butter beans and shrimp. The seafood gumbo was good but a little shy on the important bits. I'd definitely eat here again. the staff was awesome, and the place was packed

Extremely slow service and food was not hot. Had to go get my own drink refill. We felt so outta place . It's definitely a place for locals only. Our waitress didn't deliver our food or even check on us. We had to literally flag another waitress down for our ticket.

Had a decent lunch here with a group of coworkers. The waitress were great. They were very attentive to everyone and out orders. The food was good and was enough to make most in the group say they needed a nap.I dont visit this area often but if someone asked, I would recommend Nobile's.

Food was delicious and the service was even better. What a welcoming and warm establishment that we were fortunate to stumble into as we were traveling along I-10.

Staff is welcoming, makes you feel that they want your business. We ordered the daily special which for Friday was Shrimp Creole over rice, spicy potato salad and fried trout tenderloin. We chose the bread pudding with praline rum sauce for dessert.It was a rainy day and we drove 65 miles to get to this small town restaurant. The restaurant is housed in an ancient 2 story building that needed to be repainted 40 years ago. The parking lot what's full, the overflow parking lot was flooded so we had to wade through three inches of water. Entry is into the main dining room and bar. It was full. We were escorted to a series up smaller dining rooms that were decorated with fine art and crafts done by local citizens.We recommend Nobiles Restaurant for everyone. We have only been there for lunch but we believe dinner must be just as good.

This place is a decent stop if you don't want to indulge in the fast food around.The food was correct but not mind-blowing, though the dessert were really good and cheap, we were a bit surprised to be the only young people there (the average age must have been around 50yo).Really nice waiters and a homely atmosphere in general.I would give it 4 stars BUT two of my friends got the daily special which had the dessert included and they actually made us pay for it (a mistake I assume, but that's a $7 dollars mistake we saw too late). We also had troubles getting understood by the waiter (she had hearing problem and our foreign accent did not help) thankfully a young girl helped us out on that.I would nonetheless recommend this place compared to the fast food around. The fact that it's packed on a random day is still a proof of quality.

This restaurant presents a weathered look from the outside fitting the 125+ year old age of the structure, but is warm and welcoming on the inside. The food is superb and the service is prompt and friendly. Our server, Christy, was friendly and knowledgeable. Her suggestions were right on target. We enjoyed a great dining experience from start to finish.
