“best thai food i've ever had i think. and you can sit at the bar! i enjoy that every much. pad see ew and papaya salad were both phenomenal. the drinks were good too. the bartender was struggling a little bit but this was the day before fat tuesday so i understand. i was struggling too. but this place helped to heal me through the next 48 hours of substance abuse.Parking: this is near the french quarter and washington park. i would not recommend attempting to drive and park near here but it is possible.“
“Two of us got the following items: Steamed Dragon Dumplings,Stuffed Peppers , Crabmeat Udon Noodles. All the food items were delicious and the service was very good. We sat at the bar and the place was busy on Saturday as was expected. I ordered shrimp fried rice to go and I found it not to be so flavorful. I added some soy sauce and sesame seed oil to it and it kicked it up to a tastier stage. This is one of the few places that puts bean sprout in their fried rice which was a normal staple years ago among many Chinese restaurants. At the Royal China restaurant where Miss Shirley originally had her place, the fried rice was tastier. I want to mention that when we were seated we were given 2 complimentary pork dumplings and upon our concluding our meal given complimentary beignets. Thanks for the good food and service Miss Shirley.“
“By far the best wonton soup in all of New Orleans. Wontons are handmade and bursting with flavor. Broth is flavorful and not too salty. Greens in there are perfectly cooked. That said not everything here is equally good. The roast pork looks better than it tasted -- didn't have much of a bark / crust on it. And the fried rice that came with the lunch special tasted stale. I've been here many times -- their Singapore Mai Fun is great as are all their green vegetable dishes.“
“If you like dimsum and if you haven't tried this place, you are missing out! This is a must go place for xia long baos and jianbing. It also has a plethora of dims sum menus ranging from har gows and shui mais, but definitely try some of their Chinese cucumber salad and Wonton soup. You won't be disappointed with their food but keep in mind the seating can be limited. Get there off the busy hours and you will not have to wait.“
“First time trying this place and it didn’t disappoint. Our server was spectacular (he was also the bartender). Food was good and came out quick. Moderately priced menu with plenty options to choose from. It’s a small, quaint restaurant and the atmosphere is family oriented. Me and family will most definitely return.“
“After reading about Tan Dinh in the New York Times of all places. It was an article about the hidden gems of New Orleans. I knew that we had to give it a try. So, we headed to Gretna on the Westbank to dine Vietnamese style. Upon arriving, I could tell it was going to be good, there were all the signs of a good Vietnamese restaurant. The pungent smell of fish sauce, long row a table’s pushed together with a large family dining. Good enough for the whole family. As I watched the kids at the big table play air drums with their chop sticks, I looked over the menu items. The menu is vast, but I found it was translated well. We started off with some Shrimp Spring Rolls and Chicken Wings with a sweet chili sauce covering them. Both were exceptional and I probably could have taken a couple dozen of those wings home with me. That would have been a meal to itself. But we were here to try more than just the wings. I ordered a Bun Bowl of shrimp and pork with vegetables and vermicelli noodles. Charla ordered the short ribs. Both were very large and easily shareable between a few people. The food was delicious, and portions were large. If you have never tried Vietnamese food this would be the place to go. The menu is well done in English and Vietnamese and the waitress was very knowledgeable. So come hungry because you get a lot of food. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.“
“Back at Bao and Noodle and it’s even better than before! Service was wonderful: super friendly and attentive. Cool space! Great veg/vegan options with excellent pulled noodles, spot on Sichuan flavors and pots of Chrysanthemum tea. Love this place, can’t wait to return.“
“Food is very balanced, flavorful and Awesome food is always worth the wait. My favorite place for Vietnamese fare. Owner is always very welcoming and is very courteous. Comfortable seating and staff is always kind and concerned of our experience. Would definitely recommend to everyone!!! :)“
“My favorite Pho Bang location in New Orleans. I usually go with the brisket pho (rice noodle soup) but their rice plates are good as well. The com bi suon (porkchop rice plate) and com bo luc lac (shaken beef rice plate) are usually good. However, at today's visit, the com bo luc lac was a miss as it lacked flavor. There are days where it's a miss but there's more so good days than bad.Typical Vietnamese restaurant service. Pho restaurants are usually a quick, eat and go situation. So don't expect to get checked on often. They're quick to come when flagged down, though, as everyone seemed to work together.“
“The service is excellent. The staff is very attentive, polite and welcoming. Then followed up by the food....oh my !!!!! My coworker called me on the phone in my office to ask if I was ok because every other bite I'm say " Oh my goodness ". LOVE Kim Anh's !!!!!“
“I love Doson Noodle house. I love the orange chicken and the fried rice is immaculate.I normally don’t wait longer than 20 mins for my order. The portion size for myself is enough to eat all in one sitting or bring it home for some late dinner..my favorites are the orange chicken and rice though.“
“So, I'm on vacation here, tomorrow we fly back home, but tonight I felt like trying something. While walking near our hotel (LaQuinta), we stumbled on this little hole in the wall restaurant. Let me just say, this place is not something you want to miss! I got the lemongrass beef vermicelli, the shrimp spring rolls, and the thai tea boba! Everything I got is a delight for the senses! The beef is tender and flavorful, the boba tea was sweet and refreshing with plenty of tapioca pearls, the spring rolls were a bit heavy on the cilantro but otherwise delightful, and the portions are enough to leave you full for sure! Not to mention, the ambiance was immaculate as well. With the gorgeous decor, the soothing music, and the general charm of the place, it really felt like a welcoming and homelike atmosphere! Overall, if you're heading out of New Orleans by the airport, or if you're just someone around the area in general, do not miss this spot! You'll be in for a pleasant treat if you eat here!“
“One of my favorite spots on the westbank! Amazing food, excellent customer service, friendly staff and very good prices. I’ve been coming here since they’ve opened and my whole family has been ordering take out from here almost weekly for the last year. As long as the prices and the food are great then I think JAF will be around for a while!!“
