Wonderful experience! We came to visit our family and friends for a few days. Stayed at the Edgewater Inn. Great accomodations. The hospitality was perfect. Pat's Fisherman's Wharf served delicious fresh authentic Louisiana favorites. We ate at other local restaurants during our stay and decided Pat's is the winner. Saturdays and Sundays have excellent live music, dancing and friendly people. We will be back!

Their alligator bites and frog legs were so good! The perfect place to go to try some Louisiana food for tourists. We’re from Utah and this place was a great spot and so beautiful on the water

So glad Pat's was open on a Monday night. Started with a cup of shrimp and okra gumbo. Great choice. Lots of shrimp. Also had the seafood salad. I'm including a photo of it. This was the small. It had lots of seafood, and I ordered it grilled. Excellent. The kitchen was backed up a bit so the salad took a while, but it was worth the wait.

Really liked the atmosphere of this place and sitting on the raised deck over a river was perfect at sunset. Fish jumping and birds singing set the mood. Food was good. I happened to have picked a lot of deep fried dishes so in hind sight I would have liked to try others that were cleaner and "main course". My bad, next time.

2nd time here from New Orleans in a month. Delicious food. Waitress very helpful. My 4 other companions loved their dishes too. Lots of choices. Great stop on the way from Lake Fausse Pointe State Park, this time inside but last time on the beautiful patio overlooking the water.

I have been eating Crawfish at Pat's in Henderson on the edge of the Atchafalya Swamp since the 70's when my parents brought me on trips to Louisiana. I still love the Crawfish dinner with a sampling of some of my favorite ways to prepare Crawfish. I have introduced it to my son and he now insists we swing by on our way home to Dallas from New Orleans. Still delicious after all these years.
