Pearl's Oyster House

Frommer's Review

An old warehouse in downtown's South Main Street district has found renewed energy as a spacious, laid-back Gulf Coast-style seafood joint. Platters of plump oysters can be ordered raw or fried, or try the juicy pan-roasted mussels. Cajun gumbos and etoufee are rich, roux-based soups studded with chunks of Andouille sausage and fish. Fried-shrimp po'boys are encased in shredded lettuce inside chewy French baguettes. More substantial fare includes fresh catfish fried in butter, and the seasonal crawfish boil -- a spicy-hot favorite with corn-on-the-cob and new potatoes.
