Restaurants in New Orleans

“Found this gem of a restaurant on our vacation in New Orleans. Food, drinks, and service were all excellent. The staff was very attentive to the timing of food delivery to allow for a good conversions and a relaxed atmosphere. Highly recommend!”

“I have so much love for Cane and Table. My wedding reception was held at C&T in 2019 and we had literally the best time. Best food, cocktails and ambiance. The upstairs is particularly charming and beautiful. So glad we have memories there. The staff was also so gracious and gorgeous, we had so much fun sharing our favorite day with them. For a long while we would pop in whenever we were in town and were always treated like friends. Can’t wait to visit again!”

“Best overall food experience ever! Every course was meticulously prepared and described perfectly so we could know exactly what we were tasting in every bite. the wine pairings were absolute perfection. Superb chefs, and the entire staff was friendly and professional. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“We were blown away on our first visit this morning!! Ryan is a talented mixologist in the bar creating beautiful, delicious and truly unique drinks. Our server Louis was incredibly charming and attentive, giving us excellent menu choices —as it was a hard decision. Every dish was a work of art—both in presentation and flavor. The whole experience was top-notch, and we can’t wait to come back!”

“Bob Boudreau and I were in NOLA for 9 nights. Three of the nights we had reservations at other places with family. Our 1st night we looked up and found Jewel of the South. We loved it so much. we asked our nephew, his medical school advisor and his wife to join us. All three lived in NOLA and had never been here. All 5 of us would definitely go back in a heart beat. Great food. Great atmosphere. Great drinks. Great staff. GREAT ALL AROUND! FIVE STARS for Jewel of the South.”

“I ordered Nirvana pakora and vegetable saag for lunch. Service was quick and the food was delicious. The server, Sherwin, was friendly and informative. I will definitely go back and try other items on the very varied menu.”

“We were on vacation for one of our kids wedding The hotel we were staying at is located just in front of the restaurant What an amazing find to have this kind of food and wonderful atmosphere right around the corner of the hotel in walking distance Less than 5 minutes Can’t say enough about the staff from the hostesses to the servers and the wonderful chefs The 1st time we sat at the bar to watch the food being made which helped with selection 2nd time we sat at a table because we knew what we wanted Overall experience with my family coming to the restaurant is you’re missing out on one of the best kept secrets Absolutely delicious and wonderful meal From start to finish My Family & I want to say thank you so much for taking care of us and making us feel at home”

“The food was not what I expected, it was hot, fresh, and beautifully presented.”

“Great service, awesome atmosphere and the food is excellent. You have to try the red beans and fried chicken. The chicken is perfection.”

“From the amazing food. Awesome decor and A+++ from the staff. All around great experience will be back when in New Orleans. A must visit when in town. The fried bologna sandwich is probably the best sandwich I have ever had.”

“One of the best dining experiences my wife and I ever had. It is a true culinary delight that awakens your taste buds. Braiden was an excellent server who takes pride in his work and it shows! Thank you for a wonderful evening.”

“Amazing food , staff and ambiance.”

“I had a most enjoyable dining experience Lufa Nola this past Sunday. The food was delicious; the service was great & the atmosphere very serene & relaxing. I rate this restaurant & service as excellent with 5 stars. Therefore, I highly recommend it. Joyce D.”

“Had an amazing experience eating at Dakar NOLA. The menu was fresh, thoughtful and a great marriage of Senegalese and New Orleans flavors. The service was top notch and because it’s a relatively small restaurant, the atmosphere was intimate and relaxed. Was only passing through NOLA for 1 night and there were so many great restaurants to choose from but I’m so happy I went with Dakar. It was one of my favorite meals ever!!!”

“Amazing food!!! Great staff!”

“Food experience that you will never forget. Love this place!”

“I just love this place. Been many times on multiple trips. Bartenders are always so engaging and very much about keeping you company and telling you about their drinks and oysters. On this trip, a bartender with pig tails and a cap made my time so special by telling me the back story on the gin and the oysters. Fun, smiley, knowledgeable, and just welcoming. This will always be a stop for me on my New Orleans trips. And happy hour on Mon-Thu 3-6pm has great prices and fun stuff.”

“The chef’s got some serious magic in those hands! Every dish is straight-up perfection. I had the Chicken Majestic, Royyala Curry, and Dum Chicken Curry, and man, the textures and flavors were on point. The prawns? Cooked just right, popping with that perfect taste. The chicken was so tender, I couldn’t get enough. Super welcoming vibes too—overall, just an awesome experience!”

“What an enchanting experience offering for a Sunday brunch. The decor-amazing. The menu-creative and flavorful.”

“It’s dark, it’s cool, and they’ll play 60’s/70’s rock gems as the house music. The food is pretty good too. This is my favorite spot I’ve found after several years living in The Quarter. The vibe is perfect. Its the darkness and the music that really makes me not want to leave. It’s rock’n’roll without being a dive. Oh yeah, did I say the food is pretty good too?”

“My husband and I went on Friday night for dinner. Could not wait to try the new menu and it was simply awesome. To start with, our sever team was Isaac and Cheyanne and they were great. We never waited for anything. The Hot Crab Claws and Foie Gras Torte for appetizers were divine. I ordered the Duck Cassoulet and my husband had the visiting fish, Sea Bass over Yakamein. While the fish was excellent, the Duck ruled the table. Thanks to the Servers and Kitchen for a wonderful meal. We'll be back.”

“Delicious and charming! Go!!”

“Fabulous evening at N7. Wonderful food experience”

“The food was excellent. The wings, honey wine, jollof with the lamb made our day. I'll definitely come back when visiting the city.”

“Amazing food! Hip vibe! Avacado toast was the best!!”

“Best service in town and the food is always spot on !”

“We love stopping in for a quick bite and dessert. Food is always so fresh and hot. The staff is always kind and welcoming!”

“Wow!!! The best food I have had in a long time. Every thing was absolutely delicious. Service was amazing. Highly suggest everyone should experience this place.”

“Comfortable atmosphere with pleasant music. Classic but satisfactory service. Incredible food and even better dessert.”

“Great food and wonderful atmosphere”

“You won't find a better location to hear live music in New Orleans. We were at The Soul Rebels gig last night, and the immediacy of hearing them in this intimate setting was fantastic. I will definitely be back next time I'm here!”

“My first time here in New Orleans visiting heard about the famous Muffuletta sandwich and wanted to try it I picked Verti Marte a quaint but small friendly establishment! The sandwich did not disappoint very tasty huge in size I got mine warmed I will definitely go back when I visit to again 😄”

“We found this bar by chance while seeking shelter from the rain. It has a quirky theme centered around toilets, which adds a fun touch. Keep in mind, they only accept cash. The drinks here are big and pack a punch, starting at around $6 for basic options. Expect to mingle with a local crowd.”

“We found this little gem while waiting for a table at Mona Lisa. The bartender Liza was awesome. So awesome, we came back after dinner to do a shot with her after her shit. The place was so niice and we had a blast. It will be in our FQ rotation going forward.”

“Bartenders were amazing!!! ‘‘Twas a quiet ish night but the vibe was right and bartender 1 made me feel at home. Later bartender 2 did as well, as did the male patrons for this queer femme. Bartender 1 knew I had work the next day and made sure my water was filled along with my G&T. 10/10”

“step back in time to a 1950s. hamburger joint. it's a time capsule. love ❤️ the atmosphere. staff was friendly. place was extremely busy. football was very good. in a day were everything is generic and modern. it is refreshing for a baby boomer to find something from the past.”

“We always try to go here when we are in New Orleans. Last weekend we took my niece for her first visit and she left her purse that was filled with all of her makeup. She was so upset because we are 5 hours away and she was starting school this week. I called the next morning and they located the bag and overnighted it to us! What a blessing! That is great customer service.”

“I’ve heard the bartenders are great here and this is the place. I went Monday night, the bartender was ugly af. He knocked over a whole glass of wine on my friend and was unapologetic. Then charge my friend $6 for a Water. He said he was new lol We are service industry, we tip. The disrespect is not okay.”

“First Aunt Tiki’s experience was about 15 years ago. This year my wife let me bring the kids. My 23 year old and I went to see my Cowboys get beat on Christmas Eve. Love this bar. New and fantastic every time I sneak in. Unfortunately after I left, in the rain, slip sliding over to Bourbon St. I eventually slipped my best slip and fractured my fibula, skinned my knees and scabbed up my forehead. I’m paying for it now but it was an epic adventure. Love all of you there but I’m gonna give the old liver a break for a while. 10 out of 10 if you’re cool!”

“This place is IT! please come see NOELLE and her boss/cook Matt. Omg, the foood, the vibe, the convos, the fact it's a local joint but also so welcoming to everyone was just ideal. It's got a dive type of vibe, and also a very obscure feel. Like, you shouldn't be here, but again, you should! Tried every type of egg roll, pulled pork sandwich and the crawfish queso dip OMG, so delicious. Again, Noelle, just felt like family!!”

“Had a great time there. Staff is welcoming and friendly 👍”

“A welcoming bar with friendly staff. We felt right at home the minute we walked in.”

“February 19th, 2020. Husband's 50th. Wanted a Mardi Gras birthday. He went to 'Bead & Boobs' on Bourbon whilst my short self wandered in this bar mid afternoon. I found a bar stool, kicked back and let Houla introduce me to a lovely spiced rum which became my companion the rest of the evening. The bar itself was clean, bathrooms were kept up and had a slappin playlist pumping. I watched drunken drama come in and out: a young couple saddled up and in mid drink the boyfriend realized he was surrounded by gays so he bolted, a gentleman asked me to babysit his darling Yorkie while he drained his snake, but the best was watching Houla superhero himself over the bar to rescue a very intoxicated woman from a total creep. That was legend! Enjoyed my 7 hour stay. Everyone needs to be here!!”

“I visited around 5am looking for a late night bite, and these guys did not disappoint. The guy @ the counter was very patient while I was deliberating over their extensive menu. I ended up ordering the triple decker club with a side of jambalaya. My food was done in like 5 mins, & he even brought it out to my car. They also had a variety of convenience items for purchase, like the Chesapeake Crab Chips that paired well with my club. This was one of the best meals I’ve had visiting NOLA. 11/10 spot, must try!”

“best cheeseburger in town and Vincent in a kilt is eye candy laced with whipped cream”

“Parkway will ALWAYS be a favorite for me and my family. We absolutely love their poboy’s. This place is #1 in our opinion ❤️”

“My husband and I were passing through and stopped for lunch. OMG! I miss good BBQ and this hit the spot. Highly recommend. The staff is amazing, they even brought my dog a bowl of water. I will be back when passing through again.”

“Great food and great service! The owner is very helpful. We own a small dive bar in MS and we have used many of the ideas that Cooter Browns does! This is a stop for us when we are in town.”

“Great food great service what else do you need. I ordered the garlic oyster po boy and some chicken and sausage gumbo. both were to die for. Definitely a place to stop if you are in town. it's a little off the path of the French quarter but worth the drive”

“Headed to New Orleans in July, and Sweet Vegan Soul Food will be my first stop after leaving the airport. This will be my third visit to this restaurant. The food is absolutely delicious! The facility is clean and the staff is so friendly. When traveling I’m always excited to locate a tasty vegan restaurant and this place is my spot when in New Orleans! I can’t rave about it’s food enough…simply delicious!”

“Quick n easy line for king cake. Good bao also. Will be back to try the bahn mi”

“I’ve been going to Guys since I moved here over 2 years ago, tried other so called Poboy shops, their not the same, the hospitality displayed at Guys is 2nd to no other restaurant I’ve ever been to!”

“Good choices for breakfast that are affordable.”

“Cool spot a bit off the beaten path!”

“Everything they have the best authentic Mexican food in town! The tacos and rice, beans and elote are the best!!! 🥰❤️🌮🌽🫘”

“We ate there while on vacation and their coffee and their twist on french toast was the best I’ve had. The service was top notch and the cafe was very clean :) Highly recommend stopping in.”

“Food was delicious. Wait staff very friendly and attentive.”

“Excellent food, service, and atmosphere.”

“Relaxing atmosphere! OAN Of course those Beignets!”

“Absolutely excellent all around. Everyone at our table loved what they ordered. The duck special was fantastic. For a memorable meal, you can’t go wrong.”

“The fancy drinks 🍹 are titillating and the appetizers are fantastic. However, the entrees were not impressive. The chicken was served undercooked and the shrimp dish was overcooked and very greasy. Ambiance is what you pay for here and the delicate mix of intoxicating flavors in their cocktails! Staff is very friendly!”

“Really Great Holiday Decorations 🎼🌲💚❤️🎶”

“Extensive Market Knowledge:** Suzan Mchugh extensive market knowledge positions her as a resourceful source for understanding global economic trends. Investors benefit from insights that go beyond the immediate investment landscape, providing a broader perspective.”

“Really chill and intimate atmosphere.
Great service, very personable vibe to it.
The pizza (Bianca, Supremo) and house salad was delicious. Get a side of ranch and honey, sounds weird but check it out.”

“We had dinner here last night. The atmosphere is lovely and the food is wonderful. We ordered the 4 course dinner and each plate that came out was fabulous. The cocktails were great too and the service can't be beat. 5 stars!”

“The hotel is charming, the food is great with generous portions, the carousel bar is fun and the hotel staff are amazing! Special shout out to Nolan, Nicholas, Jorge, and Sanoid ( may have missed spelled. so sorry!).I would definitely stay there again!”

“The delicious authentic food and excellent customer service.”

“A warm and friendly place for drinks and food. Great Irish coffee & Cajun eggnog! There’s a cute miniature street trolley that runs around the top of the room, to boot.”

“We are in the neighborhood and BP is the GEM. The olive oil soft serve is amazing. The wines are affordable and delicious. Mortadella! Everything! Don’t miss out on this delicious, cute, & quaint spot.”

“I have been sending people to Bar Tonique for close to a year from my position as liquor vault manager at the Sazerac House. So many return to tell me what a great experience they had & to thank me for recommending it. I have left the position at Sazerac House & won't be sending any more from there, Good luck to all the craftsmen & women behind this truly wonderful place!”

“My favorite bar in New Orleans! Amazing staff with great service, always friendly and ready for conversation. Queer/trans-friendly. Quirky weird shit playing on the TVs. Usually late night food trucks from local vendors, including awesome yakamein, a New Orleans classic.”

“Outstanding in every aspect !! Each detailed tasting was presented with flair and each was equally delicious! I highly recommend ! We will be dining at Etoile again soon!”

“A wonderful experience and summed up in one word, “fresh”. The potato salad, cabbage salad, blue fin sashimi, hand rolls, saké, and dessert were all top notch. Incredible flavors in everything we tried. Thank You for the delights, we’ll be back.”

“Delightful dinner. Inventive and well executed menu. Hot sausage stuffed dates, grilled watermelon and swordfish crudo shined . Cocktails were tasty and Doc provided excellent service. Will return.”

“love this place. I had the sizzling steak and the combo fried rice. cant wait to eat here again. the staff were really polite too.”

“Wild South is the best place to enjoy a cozy, delicious meal focused on Southern cuisine.
We went on a Wednesday night the week before Christmas, so it was slower than normal, which allowed us to sit at the chef's table and get unfettered attention from the staff and chefs. We ordered the 5 course prefix menu, and everything came perfectly timed, and perfectly portioned, to the point where we left satisfied but not overly full. I paired this with their Sherry flight, which allowed me to experience a wide range of styles they have to offer.
The first course was an escabeche-esque snapper, eaten in a rice cracker. The second course was an ode to New England style chowder. Both items were not listed on the menu at the time.
We were interrupted by an intermezzo of uni and trout roe topped chicken schnitzel bites, followed by the vegetable course of broccolini, carrots and peppers, topped with a pumpkin XO sauce, and goat creme fraiche.
The main course was a brined and one-week dry-aged pork chop, with radicchio and sweet potatoes.
Pre-dessert was a refreshing scoop of strawberry sorbet, and dessert was a nod to chocolate mint ice cream, but with merengue and toasted sesame, along with Creole cream cheese custard with strawberries and poached carrots.
Overall we had an amazing time, enjoying our camaraderie with the chefs and staff, and would highly recommend going back and enjoying a meal with friends. We will definitely be back when we return to New Orleans.”

“Food was outstanding! We had ribeye, asparagus, mushrooms and onions. Everything was so delicious. Our server was very knowledgeable and gracious. It was very noisy - lots of big parties and people having fun.”

“What an experience!
We met with some friends for the Omakase menu and it was well worth the cost. With this, you get 12 or 15 different sashimi options. Each were so delectable and tasted Ike the best quality. They presented about 3 of the 12 at a time so you were not overloaded with a big platter. Highly recommend if you like the raw type. Our server was fantastic and knew every single item that was placed on the table. Cocktails were so good as well and I recommend their off menu rum drink. Decor inside is cozy and modern but very inviting. Don’t sleep on the apps as well and you MUST get the Brussels! We will be back very soon!

P.S. catch happy hour for specials on Brussels and you better get the crispy rice trio!”

“Can one of my most beautiful experiences? Louisiana delicious food and very friendly people very kind it really was wonderful to celebrate our anniversary in this place.”

“Chemin a la Mer has a beautiful view of the river and absolutely terrific food. I had the: hamachi crudo baked feta Australian Wagyu skirt steak and frites crème brûlée Everything was perfect. Wonderful experience.”

“My son and I had the absolute pleasure of eating supper at the Mosquito supper Club last night. We drove from Pensacola Florida and it was so absolutely divine. I am originally from Mississippi and my entire life I have eaten gulf coast seafood. Best gumbo, ceviche was amazing, crabs claws yum. Tomato and cucumber salad with croutons. I cannot remember the names of everything. Potato salad with so good with a dash of hot sausage and in the gumbo I have never heard of doing it this way. We chose communal seating and enjoyed talking to everyone at our table. The ambiance of the mismatched vintage silver ware. The beautifully aged house with its milk glass lighting and copper ceiling medallions and aged plaster walls. It was such beautiful experience. The buttermilk ice cream with fig sorbet. Yum.”

“The next time you’re in NO, make a reservation at August! You’ll thank us, I promise. 🤤 FIVE STAR REVIEW ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The meal started out with a “gift from the chef.” A savory leek custard, topped with pumpkin mousse and a sprinkle of sweet & salty crunch, presented in a perfectly carved eggshell. We were given spoon bread as well, which was the lightest, airiest and creamiest corn muffin ever to cross my lips. The sommelier told us that the secret ingredient was sour cream. I guess the secret is out now! 😉 Our sommelier suggested Pinot Noir. Monty chose Belle Glos Las Alturas. Let’s just say that we started shopping for it online immediately after the first taste. It has a fuller body than a typical Pinot Noir, so smooth and juicy. Such a perfect pairing. 🤌🏼 Monty had the pecan-smoked venison tartare with celery root and mountain rose apple. The flavors and textures were out of this world! We combined a few bites of the tartare with a bit of spoon bread. Omg, I’ll say it again: Out. Of. This. World. 💥 I ordered the gnocchi "black and blue" with black truffles, jumbo lump crab and parmesan. Tender, yet slightly firm, with a delicate, pillowy texture, but the truffle took it to a whole ‘nuther level! They gnocchi’d it out of the park with this one. For dinner we shared duck three ways with Bayou Cora grits, foie gras, confit, chestnut mushrooms and cherry bounce. Y’all, I’ve had foie gras, but never before like this. An intensely flavorful silky texture that literally bursts on your tongue. It was absolutely divine. Dessert was hummingbird cake with creole cheesecake, bruleed banana and pineapple ice cream. I just don’t know what to say except the pastry chef knows exactly what she is doing!! This was definitely meal to remember with the love of my life, my favorite dining companion, and my partner in culinary escapades. I love our journey of flavorful adventures, seasoned with spice and a love that mirrors the diversity of a well-crafted menu. Here’s to more delicious chapters in our love story, baby, where every bite is a beautiful reminder of the incredible life we share! Cheers!! 🥂🥂”

“Our first time dining there and they didn’t disappoint! The service was perfect from the moment we walked in. The waiter was at the table to greet us immediately and promptly took our drink order. They started us off with a complimentary meatball served with a basket of garlic bread and they even put a candle in my mother’s as we were celebrating her 87th birthday. We ordered several appetizers including the crab cakes which were the best I’ve ever had. The beef carpaccio was so good we ordered it a second time and the entrees were equally as delicious. After the meal they brought out a red velvet brownie with a candle in it for my mother and the other tables in our seating area joined us in singing happy birthday to her. She was more than thrilled! We ordered a few desserts to share and the tiramisu was fabulous, in fact it was so good we ordered a second! Needless to say this was a spectacular dining experience.”

“the cakes 🎂 are so good...u have to try them..”

“Extensive Market Knowledge:** Suzan Mchugh extensive market knowledge positions her as a resourceful source for understanding global economic trends. Investors benefit from insights that go beyond the immediate investment landscape, providing a broader perspective.”

“great romantic vibe.. perfect date night..we enjoyed it!”

“Spent my birthday here in May. What a way to celebrate! I felt like royalty. The food and service were equally matched 10/10. The portion size was perfect and the drinks were amazing. Valet was also great. I will be visiting again.”

“Great atmosphere and drinks. The DJ was amazing and music was on point.”

“Amazing and delicious jobs on all my cakes! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻”

“This is one of the truly great hotels in America. The rooms are wonderful, the Polo Club bar is fantastic, but what really makes the hotel is the staff. They are to a person, the most welcoming and professional staff you’ll ever meet in a hotel setting.”

“Delicious food. Healthy, flavorful and filling at reasonable prices.”

“We love stopping in for a quick bite and dessert. Food is always so fresh and hot. The staff is always kind and welcoming!”

“1st time going 9/22/2024 food was good,will be returning,I had grits,eggs,bacon,toast and some good Lemonade”

“Excellent food😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍”

“Amazing-the fresh flavors are the best!! Always add condensed milk for the best dessert you will ever have!”

“Iconic, fresh, delicious, and abundant staff paying precise attention to service, product & timely service. An experience to enjoy in New Orleans. Do not miss Brocatos.”

“Very nice restaurant, the Pho was good but not excellent. The soup was just ok, but the meat/ round was good. I have tasted better Pho than this restaurant. The size of the bowl was ok, not as large as other pho restaurants. The price of the soup was on the higher side because of the location. Overall experience was good. Thank you for the super attentive waiter. She noticed I needed a fork and immediately brought it to me.”

“Had the okra ,fried chicken and candied yams SoooooooGoooood thought l was at my mothers kitchen. WOW. everything was full of FLAVOR. Will be back. Thank You🥰🥰”

“I can only really speak to the Frozen Irish coffee since we got one and took it with us. It is really good and totally worth it! The place is pretty small but decorated in a fun way and would be great to grab a drink and watch a game.”

“The friendliest crew you will ever meet! Yesterday my husband had the BLT and I had the steak and eggs. Omggggg yall. Hands down the best food we have ever eaten. Period. Today we both got the Ruby special! The burger was juicy and thicc just like Ruby lol. We live 5 hours away but will be returning just to eat there again. Also for my southerners….yes the sweet tea is worth getting!!”

“Best shrimp and grits I’ve had in a long time.”

“We all know the pizza is the best in the city. But that Caesar dressing is the bomb. You should sell containers of that.”

“Fantastic Cuban food made fresh. Small menu, but it’s perfect, you don’t need more because what they have is yummy.”

“This place is loaded with incredible food options that are healthy while still feel flavorful, fun, and freaking delicious. Cannot recommend the PB&J smoothie and the Southwest bowl enough!!”

“Great food, customer service was awesome @darow was great and management also very present and checking on customer highly recommend!!!”

“To give you a sense of the kind of service and care, the waitress informed us that she does not give a check until asked so that people can stay at the table as long as they like and not feel rushed. The owner is a wonderful character. He makes you feel like family and that is part of what makes the atmosphere so pleasant. Of course it's a restaurant. So it's the food that's most important. I had the grilled fish of the day .I can't recall having a better seasoned and cooked fish. Everything was wonderful. A little quirk is that they do not have hard liquor on the menu. It's available, but don't expect any exotic drinks. We will be returning.”

“Delicious food. Healthy, flavorful and filling at reasonable prices.”

“Fresh delicious professional. Employees take pride in their work”

“Amazing food and service. Highly recommend! Jenea was excellent!”

“Food was fabulous! The atmosphere was quaint! Our waiter was very Knowledgeable, Cameron recommended The chicken shawarma plate It was the best I've ever had. And my husband had the falafel plate and we enjoyed both of them. We would recommend your place to anyone visiting New Orleans! The food the service and the atmosphere Was superb, Thank you”

“Silk Road is a bit off the beaten path, but we were very interested in trying the restaurant. The reviews looked great, but they were old. We are so glad that we ate dinner here. We ate outside as it was a beautiful evening and the inside didn't appeal to us. The food was amazing and the prices incredibly (almost unbelievably) reasonable. Apparently the chef has been there for 10 years and continues to wow the staff with his creativity and quality delicious dishes. We can't agree more. Usually we don't repeat a restaurant when we are on vacation because there are so many to try in a short period of time. This food was so delicious, we will partake again before we leave. As a side note, my husband is gluten free and there were a number of options for him. His red curry dish was wonderful, as was my tikki masala.”

“Celtica has fast become our new favorite breakfast place. Staff are very friendly and helpful, and prices are reasonable. The vibe is a pleasant mixture depending on the time of visit but mostly very friendly mixture of gen x and millennials. The only hang up i have is the available seating, this place needs more seating as it is gaining popularity quickly.”

“I recently rediscovered this gem a few weeks ago. The service is fantastic great selection of beverages and snacks. The Mushroom Boom is sooooo dang delicious! Then there is the added space to meet, gather, read a book etc. Perfect!”

“where did NOLA Botanicals relocat?????”

“I'd like to know why y'all not making that delicious bread pudding anymore! I'm thoroughly disgusted. That is the best tasting bread pudding in the city and she refuses to make it again. Please bring that item back. It was the best in the city! Thanks .I'm not giving 5 stars until y'all bring that gread pudding back.”

“I had a most enjoyable dining experience Lufa Nola this past Sunday. The food was delicious; the service was great & the atmosphere very serene & relaxing. I rate this restaurant & service as excellent with 5 stars. Therefore, I highly recommend it. Joyce D.”

“Fantastic place! I was a bit lost and happened to stumble upon this place. Decided to grab some of their blueberry croissants and a couple of coffees. Boy am I happy I did! Love you guys!”

“I was surprised at how delicious the pizza was-and so fairly priced.! The restaurant was clean and the workers took good care of us! Loved it!”

“IMHO, in my humble opinion, this is the best bakery in new orleans and maybe in the country - no one has ever baked better churros - add tres leches - and they have my own kinsfolk beat with their italian lemon cream - and they give brennan’s a run with their bananas foster cheese cake. and their beignets are easily better than cafe du monde and have the nod over my longstanding go-to cafe beignet. wow - off the charts - and grazie mille!”

“Outstanding! From the moment we entered until we left (party of 6 celebrating a birthday), everything from the food to the drinks to the ambience were topnotch. I'll return again and again. Our server was attentive and we enjoyed her recommendations and service. Kudos to the chef.”

“We always try to go here when we are in New Orleans. Last weekend we took my niece for her first visit and she left her purse that was filled with all of her makeup. She was so upset because we are 5 hours away and she was starting school this week. I called the next morning and they located the bag and overnighted it to us! What a blessing! That is great customer service.”

“It was a great restaurant and met all of our expectations. Servers were fantastic and we both loved our seafood dishes! Absolutely a must for a first time visit.”

“Brennan's Restaurant is an exceptional venue for weddings! The timeless elegance, iconic atmosphere, and impeccable service create a truly unforgettable experience. We love performing here and being part of such beautiful celebrations—it’s always a pleasure!”

“We had a fantastic Anniversary lunch at Fogo's today during our vacation in New Orleans! Sevice was still exceptional even only having one sever. The food as always was so delicious!!! I highly recommend this place!”

“Absolutely amazing! We hadn’t had this type of food before and it did not disappoint.”

“The food is good but the employees are rude. I would still eat there again.”

“We greatly enjoyed our time and meal here. The restaurant has a great atmosphere with an outdoor courtyard and water fountain. But most impressive was the service and the food. We decided to eat here twice during our week’s stay in NOLA. Staff were kind and attentive, while the food was fantastic. (Crab cakes were a personal favorite of our group). Definitely recommend if you are visiting New Orleans.”

“Food was amazing.The service from Kate and Joe was excellent .Will definitely recommend this restaurant as a must if visiting New Orleans. A great dining experience.”

“I've been coming to Mr. B's bistro for 30 years both as a local and tourist. I have wonderful memories here with friends and family. The service, food, and drinks are always exceptional. Have dinner or a drink at the bar (milk punch if you've never had it!). You won't be disappointed.”

“Great food, customer service was awesome @darow was great and management also very present and checking on customer highly recommend!!!”

“Good choices for breakfast that are affordable.”

“Antoine was a fantastic server ...polite, courteous, attentive, and extremely handsome. oh and the food was good too. I ordered the soup of the day which was the crab chowder - really decadent but not too rich. Dinner was a coffee rubbed filet cooked to perfection. I was dining alone but seated close to two different couples who did not know each other but struck up a conversation due to their proximity and I enjoyed their conversation as one couple was Swedish and the other was from AL but had Swedish roots. it was a really cool place to eat since I would call it fine dining but a comfortable feel. 10/10. Ask for Antoine.”

“My bestie and I visited Monday during Essence Fest Weekend and had the best server Centorrey. She was very attentive and honest from the time we sat down til the time we departed. Her customer service was A+++ Centorrey made coming to this restaurant a joy that I had to see her manager personally and verbally tell him what an amazing job she did. Thank you so much Centorrey and Hadji (Manager) for a great experience. The food and drinks were on point as well just removed those little airplane fans because that do nothing for that NOLA heat. I'll see you guys on my next visit”

“I had a phenomenal experience. Every aspect of my experience was perfect. The service from every employee was wonderful. We were told we had to wait because the restaurant was at full capacity. We were thanked for our patience. Langston was our server, he couldn't have been better. He was very polite , efficient, and friendly. Took care of every single detail including holding the main course to make sure we finished our appetizers. The food was really good as well. Ruth Chris never disappoints. I strongly recommend coming here.”

“Laurent was our server. He was friendly, attentive to the table, and quickly responded to additional requests. Loved the music and atmosphere. We were seated quickly.”

“Loved our food! So authentic!! Great service:)))”

“Worth the price for the ambience and food. I ordered the vodka rigatoni which may seem like a safe/boring choice but it was one of the best pastas I've had in a restaurant
The details/theme are very well-done and the house cocktails looked fun”

“Great atmosphere and food.”

“Incredibly friendly staff, great drinks & happy hour deals. The food was delicious - kala was our favorite appetizer and was half off for happy hour!! Fried porkchop, collard greens, fried green tomato BLT, and macaroni were all incredible. We will be back!!”

“This place is incredible and totally unique in every way. The sake and the shochu are amazing, and the cocktails are even better! They make all the spirits they use! 🤯 The design of the bar itself is a nod to Japanese “izakaya” and it feels like you’ve been transported into another world every time you step through the front door. It’s an intimate wooden shoebox filled with the sounds of vinyl and friendly conversation. Make sure you take the ferry if you’re coming from the east bank and try a flight of sake to find your favorite one.”

“Our krewe met up for drinks at Abita NOLA on Saturday. Nice place with lots of beers to choose from. They also freely let you sample the beers, which is so helpful in choosing. Our group tried many over the 3 hours we spent there.

A couple of bothersome things: 1. we grabbed a table inside after the previous group left but the staff never came by to clear it. It was wet and dirty. And 2. The music was so loud we couldn’t hear each other. Made for lots of yelling “what?”

Place fluctuated in crowdedness and at times there were long lines for drinks. Staff were accommodating. Would return.”

“Super tasty and reasonably priced! I got the falafel as a wrap, fries and the baklava! My falafel was super yummy, the fries were crispy and had good seasoning. My baklava was good, kinda served as a baklava roll rather than a slice. My friend got a meet wrap and also said it was really good! The server was sweet.”

“Best pizza ever put in my mouth 🥵
Cheers 🍻🍺🍻🍺
As for the bartender—vibes were immaculate. Cool, welcoming, and poured up a drink that matched the pizza’s energy: strong, smooth, and unforgettable. No fake smiles or script talk—just real, laid-back energy and good convo if you wanted it.”

“If you haven't been to this perfectly uncomplicated small venue then you are missing out. Chef Sam is bringing her amazing dishes to new places in a place that feel likes like eating at families house. I was impressed the moment I stepped in. If you are lucky, you will have Gina as your server. She is a perfect mix of funny, great stories and never ending hospitality. This is your place to try!”

“My mother and I had just wrapped up the Hop On Hop Off’s Garden District tour and we stumbled upon this place for lunch. I’m so glad we did because we had an unforgettable firecracker fried shrimp po’ boy!

We loved it so much that we went out of our way to grab lunch here again later on our trip!”

“Visited New Orleans and was recommended to go here and it didn't disappoint! The Kajun Chicken Pasta was one of the best cuisines I had while in town! The staff went above and beyond to accommodate our party and fix the meal to perfection! I will come again when in town.”

“Came in for restaurant week to give this place a try. Everything was delicious! And having just returned from Portugal I was looking for some authentic Portuguese food. I loved the Nola twist of the recipes. Very delicious. Staff was very attentive and helpful! Our glasses were never empty.”

“Great addition to the neighborhood. They bring a refreshingly no-frills craft coffee experience with a laid back charm. They make their own pastries, too. Highly recommend.”

“Amazing Honduran food, the baleadas are exquisite, soft and tasty, frijoles the way our mother's used to cook them. Melissa, found a great modern way to elevate Honduran food!”
