“I really wish I could remember our server's name he was fantastic. An average height guy with a pony tail and goatee. Walked in without a reservation and the hostess was super nice and got us a table outside. The waiter was great at explaining the soup of the day and my daughter loves it. It was a beef stew. I got the pollo pizza and my partner got the margarita and they were both on point. I love the crispy crust. Overall a great experience.“
“Stopped here on an impromptu Friday night dinner. Place was kinda busy but was greeted as soon as we walked in. Ordered barbeque shrimp as an app and it was so delicious. I had spicy chicken pizza and it was very flavorful. We've had Reginellis before but never this location. Will be back to try some other menu items.“
“We came for dinner as a family of four adults. We were seated outdoors which was really beautiful. Our waiter, Hunter was fantastic offering suggestions and great tips for first time visitors to NOLA. Everyone enjoyed their dishes. Would recommend.Vegetarian of our party were vegetarian. Our waiter suggested a vegetable plate which was really nice! We also had the ravioli which were good but not great.“
“We just got to New Orleans and decided to stop into Sofia for some food and drinks. Our server Tiberius was amazing, we felt taken care of the entire time. The pizza here is to die for, the gluten free crust is the best we have ever had. 10/10 recommend coming in here and if you want great service ask for Tiberius ?“
“Incredible food. Most dishes are appropriately small so it encourages sharing and a family-style approach. Pizzas are really something else and the pastas are to die for. Really great choices in wines, and although the price tags arent low, it is worth it.“
“Quintessential New Orleans on a residential strip of Canal Street. Casual, huge portions, family atmosphere. Big groups go to a plain dining room, but smaller parties sit in the big, interestingly decorated main salon. Can get loud after 7. Daquan (sic) was excellent.“
“My colleagues (5 of us) and I had a great meal here. We came by on a Sunday night at 8pm and we were able to sit immediately. The Jungle Bird cocktail was delicious, as were the pizzas we tried. The dough was perfectly chewy and charred. We had a lemon dessert that was delicious The hazelnut dessert stole the show, so creamy and rich.“
“We found this place on the internet, wnating some NOLA-style sausage and wanting to escape the culinary tedium that often accomanies a jaunt in the Quarter. We delighted with our find! The owners, the friendly Vaucresson family, shared stories of their three generation production and serving of sausages, such as crawfish (it's great!), green onion, chicken, and, my favorite, spicy creole. By the way, the boudin balls and onion rings were darned good too. The new deli and sausage factory is obviously new, so the place is sparkling clean and bright. Yes, we took two pounds of plister pack sausages home to Atlanta, to remember our fun discovery.Parking: Free.“
“Step back in time to the classic crooners era. Exceptional customer service. 1pm on Thursday, driving down St. Charles passing the time until I needed to be some place, passed this little gem and decided to pop in. I was immediately greeted and sat by Mr. Otis. Promptly bringing water. Mr. Georgio informed me of the availability of fresh softshells, and took my order. Sitting by the window watching the beautiful streetcars going up and down St. Charles. There was a few people in the restaurant but it was a whole vibe. Meal was fantastic. I watch a sweet older couple ask Mr. Georgio about the street car, he walked the couple across the street and give instructions on what to do. Absolutely suggest taking the time to visit. Two guests, appetizer, 2 lunch specials, water and tea bill was in the mid $60s without tip.“
“My wife I are New Orleanians. We know good food. The food in this restaurant is exceptionally delicious. The prices are reasonable too and we were greeted and treated with respect and kindness. We rarely eat out anymore because of health reasons so it was a nice outing. Thanks to all who contributed to our dining experience.“
“Serving as one of the only known Halal pizza joints I know of in the area, this spot serves a meat lovers with a beef pepperoni, beef sausage, and more! Super fire pizza and worth the drive from BR each time. Place not much to look at being off Bourbon but the staff is super friendly. If you are looking to do a quick grab and go I would order ahead so it's ready by the time you get there.“
“Amazing food. Had their cannolli and it was freshly made and tested heavenly. Wait time for getting the food was a little long (20 minutes after ordering), but that's the only thing we can complain about really. They do have some vegetarian options.“
“Weekday lunch in this unassuming Italian restaurant. In a strip mall - you'd almost never see it - but apparently well known, because it was reasonably busy, and there was a Barbie themed birthday party going on in the back. So good for groups, and larger than it appears from outside. Claudette was exceptional with keeping our drinks full, updated on our food and giving advice/information as requested. Food came out quickly, not that we were noshing on the great bread provided. Husband had a couple of Maker's Mark drinks ($11 ea), the Daube ($22), which was outstanding, and I'm not a big meat eater, and I opted for the Garlic Butter Pasta (Con Aglio E Burro) ($13) with spinach and cherry tomatoes. I LOVE that you can order the pasta as is, or add your choice of meats. Portions were perfect - almost no leftovers. Added a serving of spumoni ($4) for dessert and we were in and out in about 45 min. Definitely a go-to spot for us in the future.“
“My wife and I have really grown to love the Metairie Carrabba’s. When it originally opened years ago, we went once and were not impressed so despite leaving nearby we never went back. A friend mentioned it maybe 6-months ago and she swore it was pretty good so we gave it another chance and we are glad we did. We now maybe go 3 times or so a month. We had one problem with a server lately and I asked for a manager and Blake promptly solved the issue and took care of us the rest of the night. The food has always been very good, the service pretty quick and the bar service very good too. Our two favorite servers are Mel and Sara but with the exception of that one night the service has always been great too. I recommend Carrabba’s for a dinner for two or a small group of friends. Their “wine dinners” are also a hit for us. It’s nice to have somewhere close to home that you know is rock solid on the food & service. Thanks to Blake and his team!“
“We read that Avo was the best Italian restaurant in New Orleans. That was the reason we chose Avo. We were not disappointed. Calamari was delicious, short rib Marsala was fork tender & the sauce was amazing. Shell pasta with pork/beef bolognese was like mama’s. I would definitely recommend Avo if anyone were to ask for where to go for Italian. Our server was also friendly & charming, so appreciative of our comments.“
“they have great food, the best roast beef po boy I've ever had. I also really like the chicken parmesan and the veal parmesan. the plates come with salad vegetable and bread very large portions. it is definitely worth the drive if you do not live in the neighborhood. they also have a nice selection of beers in the cooler“
“I just stopped by and got the meatball and the chicken alfredo dinners to take out. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed both dishes. Meatballs were especially delicious, and the wife said the same about her blackened chicken. We will be back soon to try a few other menu items.“
“Very busy, put our name on the list, took about half an hour for two of us to get a table, when the food came out you realised why it was so busy fantastic food, great service, and a reasonable price. I thoroughly recommend this place to anyone visiting the French quarter of New Orleans.“
“Sorry, no pictures....Everytime I visit this place, the staff is friendly and attentive. The food is delicious. We ordered an 18in pizza, half meat lovers, and half supreme. 12 wings half garlic butter half sweet chili, I believe. The garlic butter ones were not tasty but wasnt nasty. It was not enough seasoning, just tasted like butter. Had cheese sticks also. FYI, if you are getting pizza, try and order ahead unless you dont mind sitting and waiting at least 30 mins for a regular and 45 to an hour for a deep dish.“
“The service staff was excellent from when we walked in all the way through getting to our car. Food was top notch and delicious especially the BBQ Shrimp. Was very impressed with the bread pudding as well. Overall one of the best meals I've had in a long time. Will 100% come back.“
“We were over the top with the entire meal. We started with the sampler appetizer and it was amazing. I had spaghetti and meatballs with the Italian house salad and my fiance had the meatball poboy. Everything was amazing and so delicious and the service was excellent. I have looked for an Italian restuarant to please my palate and have been disappointed but NO MORE, Gendusa's has met my expectations above and beyond!“
“Our young male waiter was so super helpful to me & my young grand daughter.Dietary restrictions: I cannot eat hard nuts or seeds & must avoid caffeine & sugary drinks. So I had to opt for water. I had no problem finding something appropriate for me on the large menu. And I love the endless salad bowl.My granddaughter loved the smoothie that came with her kid's meal. She could not chose between the flavors; so the waiter suggested mixing the 2 together. She loved it!Kid-friendliness: My 8 yr old grand daughter enjoyed playing the games on the table top device provided by the restaurant.While eating, we found out her dad was coming to pick her up a bit early. The staff was very accommodating & quick to settle the bill & get me some to-go containers.You really are treated like family there. We love Olive Garden.“
“A fantastic place for a date or family dinner. Outstanding service and ambience. The place really offers an experience for the mind as well as the body as modern design is complimented by the rustic. The food is purely amazing and there isn’t anything that was not delicious, the wine selection large and well thought out. Tana is a restaurant not to be missed.“
“We had the pleasure of eating here this past Monday and it was divine!!! The service, food, cocktails and employees all embodied a very similar vibe that was an extension of the hotel and restaurant itself!! We eagerly await our next visit!!!“
“My husband and I have gone to Furys for years. One of our favorites. Burger is one of the best servers. He is polite and always has a smile. The food is excellent. All the staff are tops. Squally in the kitchen is the best. Highly recommend trying them.“
“I was born on Jefferson Highway and after eating the amazing food here I can happily die of a food coma on Jefferson Highway. Portions were very surprising in their generosity. The service was perfect. We didn’t have a single server, it was awesome teamwork. The interactions and conversations were relaxed and welcoming. We are already planning to return.“
“The Brick Oven Cafe is one of. My favorite restaurants in the entire New Orleans area!! Strictly speaking, it is not in New Orleans but in Kenner on Williams near the airport but it is more than worth a planned stop!! Everything is homemade, mainly Italian but with a definite New Orleans twist. From pasta dishes to incredible desserts- tiramisu and the wedding cake cannoli are to die for, the cuisine is always consistently incredible!! The service manages to be traditional yet very welcoming. And the ambiance is comfortable and inviting. Go and enjoy making a wonderful memory!! The Best!!“
“I come to the Italian Pie pretty much weekly and I always have the best experience. The food is great but my favorite part of it is the staff. Carmen is the friendliest server I’ve ever met, she literally seems like a friend. She remembers all of our orders (and my family is known to be picky) and she gets it right every time. Her customer service is a 100/10!“
“Food is ok. I had the seafood manicotti, it was swimming in sauce and had a hard time finding the “seafood” but it was tasty. The dessert i had i cannot remember the name but had strawberry, chocolate, and pistachio ice cream with cookie crust, not good. The ice cream looked and tasted more like a sorbet, ok flavor. My husband had the beet salad which he liked.“
“I have passed this restaurant a few times and always wanted to try it. Last night I finally did. I was fist very impressed with the staff, everyone was so friendly and attentive(rare these days). I am Italian, so it is hard to find a place that is better than grandma’s home cooking, as well as my own. I must say, we ordered the Italian salad, chicken and Alfredo, the chicken parm and the filet. Hats OFF to the Chef!!!! Not to mention, the amount of food for the price was amazing, no room for dessert and lots of leftovers. Will visit again and bring the family.“
“If you love pizza, you gotta come try this place out. Small homestyle local Gio’s is a family-run pizzeria that will redefine your pizza standards.We had a meat pizza in the shop and I took home a Magharitta pizza which my kid loved. We also tried their meatballs and they were bomb ?The pizza crust is thin and crunchy. Most pizzas run at a $20 fee for the same 8-slice pie.What makes or breaks a pizza for me? The crust and tomato sauce. Both here are amazing.The ambiance is homey, order at the counter and pay. The only catch is their operating hours. Make sure they are open when you wanna pop by.“
“This was our last night in New Orleans and we were looking for home style Italian food. We hit the jackpot at Two Tony’s Restaurant! The food and atmosphere was wonderful! The Fettuccini Alfredo with Romano crusted chicken was amazing! Best wishes all! We will be back!“
“We wandered here to find a bite to eat as my colleagues and I are in the area for a sustainability conference. We tried to get into a sports bar but it was packed. Luckily I walked by here and saw it on my way to the hotel where the conference will be. We started with the spinach and artichoke dip, it was really delicious, it came with 6 pieces of perfectly toasted bread that wasn't too heavy. My colleagues got side ceasars, looked really good. Nice portions. We ordered a large classic pizza, with a pesto tortellini to share, it was all really well done. Delicious, hot, and we never needed anything because our server was on top of it. We had someone else helping run food as well, Both were excellent. I have a sneaking suspicion we may be back because all of the food at this conference is vegan. Sorry I took no photos, but when the food came out it was so damn good. Support small businesses!“
“The pan crusted chicken breast was phenomenal. The eggplant chips for an appetizer were lovely. Everything our table ordered was amazing. It was our first time there. Josh our server was on top of everything. The owner even stopped by to check on us.“
“Not the most mind-blowing pizza I’ve had but it’s a refreshing change of pace from the chaos of Bourbon Street. This is the baseline place you go to when you’re all partied out and just need a good, classic and affordable slice of pizza. Great, friendly place to be and you can tell the food is made with love.“
“The website menu items and pricing is out of date. The Crab salad does not contain much crab..get the regular salad. One salad is good for 3 people. The Oyster Mosca and Shrimp Mosca are must get selections. The pasta and red sauce, too. Last night, the Chicken a la Grande was overdone..pass on this item. I was disappointed they did not have Sangiovese ( on their website menu)....they substituted a Cab Sauv. The pineapple fluff is a rather unusual item. If you email them for something other than reservations, do not expect a response. This is a place to go to with a small group in order to share items ( serving is family style.)“
“Fabulous Fish! Ordered catfish dinner - perfectly fried catfish filets sitting on hot, buttered French bread, with deliciously creamy potato salad, served with both tartar and cocktail sauces. The dinner comes with a mid-sized green salad. The blue cheese dressing was nice. There was enough food for two meals. The fish had a clean, fresh taste and arrived hot. It was my first visit and I was pleasantly surprised by how well-cooked the food was. Ambiance and location are completely secondary to the quality of the food. It is clean, comfortable, and unassuming. The waitstaff was very pleasant and accommodating.“
“Pricey but very good! I always get the pesto tortellini add chicken. Cheese sticks are really good and usually have a coupon, or used to atleast. The smoking chicken pizza is so good! A little spice to it, but definitely worth trying! I always order to go fast and easy.“

“This was my first time at Mr Ed's in Bucktown. Fortunately we arrived before the dinner crowd and were able to get a table right away. By the time we left the place was getting packed. Our waitress was a little distracted, even before the crowds came so don't know what that was about but we all have a bad day.I ordered the stuffed bell peppers and although they weren't huge in size... man were they stuffed to the gills with tasty seafood. These were not stuffed peppers mostly with breading.Definitely plan on stopping again next time I'm in New Orleans to try their chicken liver dinners, one of my favorites and very hard to find.“
“This was worth all the money. Our server was so great! Very friendly and had so many good recommendations. He also helped with the wine pairing.The food was incredible. We shared a pizza and had a pasta dish each after. Ended the night with a cocktail and a Affogato.The music was really good, and at a good volume. We really enjoyed this dinner.“
“The best pizza in the entire state!! They offer a BEEF PEPPERONI option that is out of this world; everything they make is PERFECT and DELICIOUS.The owners are very kind, accommodating, and welcoming. This place is my go-to for any pizza! It's a small hole-in-the-wall, very lowkey and enjoyable! If i could only eat at one place for the rest of my life i would choose Milano's Pizza and, trust me, you would too!!“

“The new location on barataria is beautiful! The food is delicious as always and the staff is always friendly and smiling. I love everything on the menu, but some of my favorites are, of course, the Mew Orleans Muffaletta, Shrimp Poboy, roast beef on muffaletta bread, eggplant sticks, and the fried mushrooms. You can't go wrong with anything!“
“We really enjoyed our experience here. The staff was very friendly and everyone made us feel welcome. Our food was delicious! I had the lasagna and my wife had the bolognese. We also had the bruschetta for an appetizer and split the lemon mascarpone cheesecake for dessert. I would definitely recommend. Despite this being a special occasion I would definitely return just for regular dining.“
“Came here for the garlic knots (which are buttery little knots of pure heaven), and ended up ordering a Detroit style pizza with BBQ shrimp. I'm from Chicago and have never seen/heard of a shrimp pizza before, but it was absolutely delicious! The shrimp was tender, the savory sauce complimented the shrimp perfectly, and all on top of a pillowy buttery crust.“

“Great new small business. We got the chicken n red gravy. I found the gravy could have used more seasonings. I didn't see any bell peppers n wondered what about a bay left ? ? The pizzas are wonderful. I would say YES Give a try.“
“My family and I walked in for lunch right when a storm was coming through earlier this week. The staff was very helpful and friendly in accommodating us and my son who has special needs. During the duration of our meal, the weather took a turn for the worse; they carried on, had a plan, all team up to work together, went into immediate action to care for not only us but also their staff and restaurant without missing a beat in service. All was well and safe.Also, hands down some of the best fried green tomatoes and gumbo I’ve had in a long time!“
“Pizza was really good, but the service was SO slow. They were nice, but it took nearly 10 minutes for someone to ask me what I want at lunch when the restaurant was only half-full. By the time my food came out, I had to take it go because I had to go back to work.“
“Been coming here for years and it never disappoints. Service is always personable and quick and the owner, Ms. Carol, always makes sure you're getting the best experience. The food never lets me down (Wednesday's steak and lobster is my favorite). Can't go wrong with the crabby Mary either. Reasonable prices for the quality. Best seafood restaurant around, will continue to come for date night!“
“Honestly some of the best food I have tried. Their bagels are so good! The homemade tomato sauce and meatballs are to die for. The subs I can't wait to try them all. My favorite so far is the chicken toscani and the broadway. The portions and subs are huge and the prices are great. I can't wait to try more.“
“Wow. What can I say. 3 times going here. Each time the staff/ownership/management went above and beyond to make my experience amazing. Kindest staff in all of Harahan. And they deliver a terrific product. You must give this place a go!!! Thank me after.“
