V. Seafood restaurants bearing the Schaeffer name have existed for a long time in the neighborhood of Slidell. This one is on the old highway, just off that burgeoning section of US 190 south of the interstate. The menu offers all the standards, and a few oddities. You might want to start with the hot tamales, which are the old Manuel's style and a cheap thrill. They make poor boy sandwiches, and they'll also put almost anything you want on a muffuletta loaf.
Boiled seafood is a big deal, served amply and cold.
The fried and broiled seafood platters are just okay. The italian dishes are much less than that. The service staff and management are very friendly and amenable to special requests. Boiled shrimp, crawfish, or crabs. Muffuletta-style roast beef or seafood sandwiches.
