We were WOWed by this dining experience. Let me start by saying that the gentleman who waited on us was fantastic and made the experience extra special. He even sang to us in Italian. The dinner was probably the best Italian food Ive had in New Orleans. I ordered a special that was steak tips and a side of the red sauce pasta, so I did not have to give up the red sauce. It was tender and pink in the middle and one of the best things I have eaten. My friend got the veal with peppers and mushrooms also fantastic. (I tasted it to be sure) We also got a fried eggplant medalion with I forget what kind of seafood sauce. We could have licked the plate. It was not crowded. Really nice inside. There is a long bar. Plenty of seating. If you arent eating here, you are missing out. Good date spot, but there were families eating there. For dessert, cannolis with a cinnamon chocolate filling made there, coconut gelato, and a small cheese cake with cappucinos. A+

Parking: It shares a parking lot with a pizza placs which appears popular. However about 1/3 of the parking lot is valet, so if you cannot get a spot, you can get valet. I didnt need to but valet kindly came and held the door for me.

We’ve been making the drive from the north shore to Nephew’s as long as they’ve been open. The recipes are authentic Italian and incredibly delicious. The service is personal and perfect. And we always find ourselves talking our meal for days after the fact. Don’t pass up this local favorite.

There is an order here called the feed me. If you order the feed me, they bring you course after course after course after course a little bit of everything. Delicious. Pricey but worth it. Excellent. Excellent Italian food.

The best Italian food ever! Frankie is the best cook. You can't wrong with any item in the menu. The eggplant roll and the pasta vacca were incredible!?

The Seafood Cup and the Veal Parmesan and Pasta were excellent, as well as the little Italian Breads!We have been eating at Nephews since it opened and this was the first time that we received such poor service. Our reservation was for 6:45 pm and we were seated immediately upon arrival. However, once seated it actually took 30 minutes to get our drinks, and another 20 minutes to order our appetizers. Twenty five minutes later we actually had to call the waiter over to our table to take our dinner order. I could have understood the delay if the restaurant was busy, however, that wasn’t the case. There were only three other tables seated. It was disappointing that the service was so poor b/c their food is delicious!

We had dinner at Nephew’s Restaurant with two other couples. The experience was really great, from start to finish. We were very politely greeted by the valet upon arrival. The waiter was super friendly, brought our drinks, explained all the specials and promptly served our food. The food was excellent and the portions were huge. This is a great spot to eat and we will return.

I wanted to try anew restaurant for my birthday on May 19th. My mom is a 90yr old and my sister decided yo try this restaurant.We arrived at 6:30p and were not greated at our table for 15mins.We got water and hot bread from the waiters assistant who asked if our waiter had come over yet. He seemed puzzle and confused.Our waiter was an elderly individual who came over to our table after 20mins and took our drink order.It was now 7:30p and we didn't have menus. We couldn't order an appetizers either.Our waiter finally came over and decided to practice he's Spanish with us at which time we just asked for our check.This was a very confusing and disappointing experience from a very reputable stablishment.This gentleman obviously needs he's job and should be working with another waiter/busser to assist him.The valet guy was wonderful and attentive.
