"So disappointed in our experience at Felix's. We went with pretty high expectations, but this was our least favorite restaurant and meal from our latest NOLA visit. We went in for lunch on a Friday, and there was plenty of seating available. Once at our table, water came out quickly and our order was taken. Things went downhill after that. Just before our food was served, I noticed a drip from the A/C vent in the ceiling above me, as it splashed my left arm. I skootched my chair over a bit to avoid. Once we had food, it happened again and this time splashed the table close to my plate. As the restaurant was half empty and we didn't see our server, we picked up our plates to move to the table next to ours. Our server appeared and said we couldn't do that then proceeded to push our table closer to that one, about 2 ft from it. She seemed mildly annoyed. No apology or offer to move us to a different section. The water continued to drip, now splashing my leg each time, but at least it wasn't getting into my food. Now the food.. was mediocre at best. We ordered chargrilled oysters, raw oysters and the seafood salad. So disappointing. The chargrilled oysters were sitting in a lake of butter, which was also soaked into the bread to the point you could squeeze it out in a stream. They were way over seasoned and tiny too. The raw oysters were also small we have had much better where we live in Birmingham, for less money. The seafood salad was better, with pretty fresh produce and tasty boiled shrimp on top. The lump crab meat was just that no seasoning and just dumped on. Food presentation was sloppy and well below that of any other restaurant we visited. Our server never asked whether the drip problem was better and when people were seated at the table next us now very close it was crowded and we were clearly in their space. It was uncomfortable. Overall, the food was sub par and service was worse. When you go to New Orleans for oysters you expect the best. Being a South Louisiana native, I'd say these were far from that. Coupled with the poor service experience Do Not Recommend."
