5216 Table & Tap

"Pleasantly surprised with this place! We found this spot as we drove into NOLA late evening and had Brussels sprouts, oysters, and fish and chips and all were delicious. Service was good then slowed a bit as it got busier, which is understandable, but had a good experience overall."

"If you're looking for a spot, this is it. The food is fanominal, all fresh made in house not the generic bar food. The staff are awesome, fast, and very personable."

"This is a bar that serves some good food but plays very bad music although it looks like they can do live music. 5216 Table & Tap is a new spot that opened up back in 2019 which as become noted for being a really great spot to grab a good meal and have some good times in the greater New Orleans area. This spot certainly has some interesting design features and while I've never been here at night it looks like you could have a lot of fun here. I was here for lunch and enjoyed a really nice cheeseburger with some quite amazing brussels sprouts. Overall this is a great spot to grab a meal and possibly a nice spot to enjoy some nightlife as well but I haven't had the opportunity to check that out yet.

"Food was stupendous, service was remarkable. Way better than the Swamp Room, this is our new hang out on Vets! Drinks were amazing!"

"First went in and was excited that it was no longer the swamp room, looks amazing, bright and fresh. From there the experience went downhill. We sat down and waited for maybe 5 minutes or a bit more before we got menus. We then tried to get the attention of every passing server for what I would say was again 5 minutes to no avail, we finally grabbed someone who nodded and then walked on. After another few minutes someone finally came to take our order, she took our drink order and I ordered a dessert. The drinks came promptly but the dessert took forever, I had to eventually go to the bar (we had not seen our server since getting drinks) and the bartender (although our server was standing right next to her) confirmed the order and went to check on it. When the dessert came out the gentleman who brought it said to me do you need 3 more spoons or are you planning to eat all of this, it was not extremely large, to which I replied, all mine, thanks. The bartender was excellent, personable, came to check on us, and brought more drinks when they were ordered. Overall the bartender saved the night, I would go again just with the hopes that they clone her and service gets better. P.s. it was busy, I will allow them that but it was not busy, the booth behind us never filled with people and there were empty bar stools, but perhaps they did not anticipate the crowd that they had for a Monday night, all be it the Monday before Christmas."
