  • Yes [Y] The Blue Hole
    07-27-2008 5:27 PM

     I am so happy to see this place rockin and rollin

    Great menu

    Outdoor dining on the Bayou with some pretty sweet boats docked on the pier.

    I hear they have good bands play on Weekends (MOJOWink)

    Nice atmosphere

     and a giant screen TV inside in the bar area (football)

    I hear one day of the week they have free boiled crabs.

    It's off the path of tourists joints.. I can't wait to go back

    It's the *not knowing* that makes me unsureTongue Tied

    It's on Heards Lane, just west of it's intersection with 61st Street.   Heards Lane is the first light after you cross Offat's Bayou if you are heading toward the Seawall on 61st.  Turn right on Heard's, and The Blue Hole is just a short distance from 61st, on your right.

     this place is just fabulous. Quiet, nice breeze, outstanding boiled crab and shrimp, atmosphere just says Island time. Warning: The spicy boiled crabs and shrimp are very spicy. Beer is real cold, too.

     You are unique just like everyone else. Hmm

    If you don't require an emergency stomach pump afterwards, it's too bland. Stick out tongue

    You spelled it right, or at least it's close enough to paint a much more vivid picture than I want to think about. 

    Seems like the cure might be worse than the disease. Ick!
