Rawbar Inc., doing business as Acme Oyster House, is a chain of seafood restaurants in the United States, headquartered in Metairie, Louisiana, [1] with the original in the French Quarter of New Orleans. The company's food is served cajun and creole style and it has locations in Florida, Alabama, and formerly Texas. [2]
Its dishes include oysters, po boys, jambalaya, etouffee, and gumbo. [3]
In 2005 the French Quarter restaurant did not book reservations. Clea Simon of the Boston Globe wrote that the French Quarter facility "looks more like a bar than a restaurant". [4]
