TESTIMONIALS

  • We visit Fontenot's every year on the last day of Winter Park Jazz Festival. We are never disappointed. The food is wonderful. It has a New Orleans flavor and vibe. One suggestion less okra in the gumbo. The food is priced right. The service is good.

  • One of the best seafood restaurants I have ever been to. Loved there food and there service. Shrimp poboy was the best. There serving sizes were just enough for the price. Would definitely go back.

  • One of the best and only places to get Seafood in Winter Park Colorado. Higher class restaurant in the middle of Winter Park next to Carver's Bakery. Would recommend if you're looking for good seafood or a fancier meal. Good service and good food high prices though so make sure your wallet is full when you go. There's a bar here and they do have some decent desserts. There's outdoor seating if you're looking for it and good views and a unique atmosphere.

  • Great food, a little spendy, got hit with altitude sickness just before we started the entree, so that's a bummer. But what do you do? Thanks for the great service.

  • A very unique place to get your cajun seafood fix, but they nailed it! Started off the meal with two choices of complementary bread, followed by fried green tomatoes (a first for me), and wrapped up with the blackened salmon cajun combo. The prices were kind of steep, but completely worth it as every bite was fantastic!

  • Service was excellent. Food was extremely good. Decor was very nice. The staff and menu choices make this place. They became very busy after six, suggest you arrive early and take advantage of their happy hour. Prices were reasonable, menu was had above variety of choices. I would highly recommend.

  • We love visiting Fontenot's for lunch and getting a shrimp po'boy and fried green tomatoe po'boy with a basket of fries. The bloody Mary's and gumbo are excellent too! The food is always delcious and we've never been disappointed. Dinner is basically the same menu, but with increased prices, so we usually just come for lunch.
