From the restaurant's website:
"Founded in 1913, this family-run, Italian-Creole restaurant is located in uptown New Orleans. It is famous for creating barbecued shrimp. This neighborhood restaurant is vintage New Orleans, from the service to the decor. The oyster bar always manned by a friendly shucker. The oysters are fresh, salty and delicious. The old time oyster bar and cocktail bar offers raw oysters on the half shell and all types of cocktails. We offer fine seafood, Italian specialties and delicious steaks."
Reservations suggested. Full bar. Serving lunch Mon–Fri, dinner Mon–Sat. Closed Sun.

The New Orleans Menu by Tom Fitzmorris: *** (worth crossing town for)
"There's a reason why a cartoon shrimp is the mascot for Pascal's Manale, and it's the same reason why so many guests here don plastic bibs. This old-school eatery is the birthplace of New Orleans-style barbecue shrimp, in all its butter-dripping, completely un-barbecued glory, and Gambit readers say it's the best."

"Everyone loves the taste of the famous barbeque shrimp at this Italian-Creole spot. Its cool atmosphere is great for out-of-towners or a family dinner. The oysters are fresh and the steaks are good."
