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.

“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”

“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.”

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

“Fabulous evening at N7. Wonderful food experience”

Phenomenal cocktail selection, bartenders were knowledgeable but great service regardless of how hectic it was on a Sunday afternoon.”

“Delicious tuna ceviche and seafood empanadas!”

“Amazing food , staff and ambiance.”

“Cool 80's vibe. Had a really nice dinner. Fab was our waitress. She looked like a Solid Gold dancer and was amazing. Her friendly personality, attentiveness added to a fun evening. Carlos took great care of us at the bar when we arrived. I definitely recommend.”

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

“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?”

“Amazing food!!! Great staff!”

“Plume is hands down, my favorite restaurant. Taste, presentation, texture, it’s all there and the kitchen is consistent.”

“Had to check out this spot based on previous reviews...it was crowded when we entered and very lively. Very welcoming and friendly atmosphere. The bartender was prompt and very attentive. She gave excellent suggestions. Very reasonably priced!”

“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 😄”

“Anthony is a great bartender. He just started but he was so friendly and the best bartender we had all week. I showed him how to make a Wisconsin old fashion and he nailed it! Great place, excellent atmosphere”

“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!”

“Hands down my favorite bar in New Orleans. If you appreciate a cozy dive bar, like a wide range of characters, and want to feel like a regular in this old town hang out at the Lantern.”

“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.”

“This is a serious dive bar but don’t let that deter you. The food is fantastic. We hit the midnight crawfish boil on Saturday and did not regret it. Even with how busy it was, the bartender was upbeat and friendly, and honestly the vibes were good.”

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

“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.”

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

“Great staff and the courtyard is the best”

“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!!”

“Superb happy hour and appetizers! And barkeeps!”

“Great Little Dive Bar friendly people great music”

“I'm actually really impressed with the customer service in here, given that l know it's in a very busy location with lots of obnoxious people. Nothing fancy, just a hello and thank you, which is all one needs to have a pleasant shopping experience. Goes to show you it CAN be done, even in New Orleans. Thanks guys!”

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

“Stopped infor the first time yesterday and couldn't believe what I have been missing! I had the BEST Bloody Mary I've had in years, and the frozen concoction they were serving tasted like heaven. We will definitely be making this a regular stop.”

“Modern takes on traditional foods while maintaining cultural roots. I'm not Haitian and I have no experience with Haitian foods. Fritai offers an experience of Haitian culture and food with a modern side. Flavors are delicious. People are real and friendly. Some of the best cocktails in the Southeast: Go!”

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

“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!”

“Excellent experience. Highly recommend. We tried almost half the menu, drinks and desserts included. Great all around.”

“Cool spot a bit off the beaten path!”

“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.”

“This place really left a lasting impression. From the hostess, our server, the bathrooms, food, price point, time we spent. Everything was on point. We had oysters, gumbo, bisque, redfish, and house salad. Everything was divine!!! Keep up the good work! Also loved that it was so very clean.”

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

“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”

“Old school fried Nola goodness…”

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

“Visited NOLA for three nights and we found this gem! Amazing indian food! Namaste NOLA is the place would recommend for indian food if visiting next! Will definitely come back just for their food!”

“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!”

“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!”

“Stayed here from October 10th-14th (2025). Everything was amazing from the staff to the food, and also the Carousel Bar. Be sure to hit the rooftop pool and bar while you are there. Only a block from Bourbon Street and right in the middle of everything. Super easy to find when you are walking the city. The classic rooftop sign is something like 300 feet wide. You can read it from miles away. Has a very 1930s eras feel to it, and the place was immaculate. 10/10”

“Picked the location because of the reviews...B B did NOT disappoint, tuna app, mushroom gnocchi, espresso creme brule....of an the crab hash side (need that for breakfast)
Solid restauraunt , staff is on point
Really enjoyed it”

“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.”

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

“We strolled in here not knowing this place at all. Originally, we wanted to go to St. Roch Market, but we were not too impressed and left. Best decision ever! This unassuming little gem fed us a beautiful, creative, and delicious breakfast. Every item in the menu was an elevated and creative version of all our breakfast favorites. They have a lot of bar/counter seats, which is my favorite. You get to see your breakfast being cooked right in front of you.”

“Yummy wood fired pizzas and salads. Reasonable prices. Special pizza of the day every day.. the one I ordered was insanely spicy tho, hard to eat and I have a high spice tolerance.”

“Fabulous cocktails. Gorgeous decor and delicious food. Polite professional staff and sumptuous seating. Need I say more ❤️ The “soleil” gin cocktail is divine 🙏🏻 Do it!”

“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!”

“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.”

“Amazing pasta dishes that tickle the taste buds. Portion size is perfect, service amazing with knowledgeable, kind servers. Pasta, elevated. ❤️”

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

“Really Great Holiday Decorations 🎼🌲💚❤️🎶”

“Attended our company holiday party at Arnaud’s and was blown away by the staff and even more so by the food. Everything and I mean everything was top shelf!!! 5stars plus all around”

“Good choices for breakfast that are affordable.”

“What an amazing, thoughtful, and tasteful experience at Etoile! Kat, the bartender was so charming and informative of the new tasting menu that is happening starting today! Get yourself over there for a cocktail and small plates. Everything is farm-to-table, locally-made or in-house. The cheeses were incredible that are made in house. The passionfruit sour cocktail was divine.

There is even a lovely local cat with a cute bowtie that matches the interior that comes around outside.

Big ups! This place was a perfect outing. No reservations needed. Thanks for the unforgettable experience!”

“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!! 🥂🥂”

“Absolutely delicious dinner, dessert, and a lovely conversation with Kelly Bopp, Granne Guice, and WJK4 at the newly reopened Gautreau’s Restaurant. Make your reservations early! 🦃 🧡🎁❤️🎄💚”

“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.”

“I was so happy that I was able to find this location on OpenTable. I'm here for a couple days prior to getting on a cruise. Let me start off by saying the ambience and the beauty of the restaurant is amazing. We were seated immediately. Definitely recommend reserving a table. There were four of us received filet mignon and it made to perfection. Also had their salad 🥗 it was truly amazing . Our waiter was very knowledgeable kind and continued to check on us to see if we were OK. We all were so full that we did not even get Desert. There was no room. If you are in New Orleans and you want a really good meal, please please consider..”

“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.”

“Awesome experience, we were taken around the world with our food.. All of the dishes melt in your mouth.”

“Perfectly delicious and a wonderful dining experience. Eli will pair sake per serving. Lovely meal.”

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

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

“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.”

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

“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.”

“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.”

“Stop in to get takeout from one of the pop up restaurants that I follow on social media! I was very impressed with the beer garden. Grabbed some to-go beers and a pretzel 🥨. The staff were helpful and just frickin cool! Not to mention the beer garden atmosphere was warm and welcoming! Definitely worth the stop, and I look forward to going back with the family.”

“Everything we had was delicious! The Red Curry sauce is amazing 😋”

“The delicious authentic food and excellent customer service.”

“A delightful and popular institution among NOLA bakery gelaterias. Outstanding traditional Italian pastries; tortes, cannolis, eclairs and cake slices. Good assortment of gelato flavors. Also quite a variety of imported packaged Italian delicacies displayed for gifting and take home. There are a handful of small tables in front and more sit down tables just above/beyond the main floor. Parking is tight in front, but there's a variety of options nearby.”

“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.”

“A small taco stall located in the old gas station. Simple menu but really tasty tacos. We finished the first round and had to order more.

We plan to come again if we are back to New Orleans.”

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

“And a good selection of music on the box…”

“Excellent music, good (and cheap) drinks, chill and friendly atmosphere.”

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

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

“We always try to get to Creole Creamery when we visit New Orleans. We love the variety of unique ice cream flavors”

“A nice upscale and comfortable environment for learning more about Irish immigrants coming to New Orleans. Wonderful history and even better tastes of Ireland. The espresso martini and Irish lemonade are really refreshing and delicious.”

“We thoroughly enjoyed all the trays we got at Ayu Bakehouse on our recent trip to New Orleans! The staff is very friendly, and it’s clear they love the place and the products they produce! Of all the items we tried I would have to say that the one that was hardest for me to share with my family was the muffuletta sticks!”

“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.”

“F&M hit it's zenith during the 1984 World's Fair, when Jed and Chester were still with us.”

“they don't serve food, so much fun and history”

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

“Everything I want in a coffee shop! Great coffee & tea of course. Yummy muffins & other pastries. Delicious & satisfying Protein-packed breakfast meals. Clean & inviting seating areas inside & out. Plus my awesome sister Sarah is there!”

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

“You can literally close your eyes and point to something on the menu, and you are gonna go home happy and stuffed. My fav the Veal Parm hands down. If you don't like it here, then you probably weren't born with taste buds and you eat Lasagna from Costco.”

“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?????”

“Great food, lots of fun. My family and I watched Frank Wilson’s debut as LSU head coach”

“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.”

“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.”

“I'm 50+ years old. Have been to countless restaurants in the US and mexico (Cancun 12 times) and the meal I had tonight was the best I've ever had. The cocktails were great. The service was great. Didn't wait long because somehow we were the only 2 people in the place. It was a Tuesday, and we did have early reservations. (4:30) Not complaining cuz I was able to lie to the wife and tell her I booked the entire restaurant for her. (Yes, she knew I was joking) Now, the food was amazing. I already knew what I was ordering but saw the menu of small plates that wasn't on the menu online and decided to try those after eating a couple of the appetizers. Enjoyed every single thing I tried and after the wife tossed in the towel I still went for the Cantonese fried rice. I thought I was done eating until I was told what was in the dessert. Well worth the stomach cramps I now have as I write this review. Happily people start arriving as we were leaving. I strongly suggest to anyone who spent the time to read all my gibberish and go to this restaurant.........................FYI, this is the first time I've ever felt like I needed to write a review.”

“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.”

“Antoine's was a wonderful experience. The service and food were second to none. Our group enjoyed our entrees and desserts. Our server truly made our dinner and time in New Orleans one of a kind.”

“Last day in NOLA we were blessed with an incredible meal featuring succulent hazelnut crusted duck, savory squash and a heavenly Lemon Tart that left us in awe. It was perfectly topped off with a tour of the entire building including the kitchen by the amazing Manager David Weick. What a truly unforgettable experience. Thank you David!”

“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!”

“my daughter and I ate at the Oceana Grill tonight and it was absolutely fantastic we had the most amazing waiter he was awesome very tall very handsome so amazing we said in the courtyard and my Margaritas were fantastic my meal was amazing the conversation was epic”

“The first thing you notice is the quirky decor & immediately feel at home. The second is the excellent customer service, southern hospitality at its finest. I ordered the crab cakes with poached eggs on top. I will never eat a crab cake anywhere BUT here. Their food was delectable and by far the BEST food I’ve had while in NOLA. Our server gave great free entertainment advice for us tourists and was highly attentive. All this to say, don’t come to NOLA & miss out on Elizabeth’s. They are a MUST experience.”

“Amazing food, friendly atmosphere. I've been hearing about them for years and so glad I finally got to go. Well worth the wait. The debris is amazing!!”

“Nice Atmosphere. Good Food. Excellent service by our server, Robert Mullen. Very kind and attentive throughout our meal”

“Maggie was incredible as she suggested amazing dishes and even recommended multiple local spots we should check out during our stay! The bacon wrapped shrimp and grits were incredible and the King's Cake is a must! Best way to end the evening!”

“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.”

“Good choices for breakfast that are affordable.”

“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”

“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.”

“Exceptional service and food options/selection, all at reasonable prices. Great value and everything tasted great. Our party of four had the "BBQ" oysters and patte as appetizer; gumbo, steak and frittes, beet salad with blue crab and grilled duroc blade steak as main course, and shared the chocolate cake and bread pudding - all perfect. Very busy on the Monday visited and a bit louder than I would have preferred. That said, would definitely recommend and look forward to my next visit.”

“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.”

“The service was top notch! Our waitress was there exactly when we needed anything and was friendly. We had the Fish and Chips with Mushy Peas (it was a nightly special, we were there on a Saturday, not sure if it's weekly or not) and a pint of Guinness. Absolutely amazing meal! I've never actually had Fish and Chips in the UK, but this had to be on par. It was crispy, flaky, and not at all greasy. The mushy peas were very tasty as well. The Guinness was so nicely poured and smooth. Perfect compliment to the meal! The atmosphere was definitely fancier than I thought, just hearing about the place, but I really loved the decor. It wasn't loud or hectic, just nice and cozy.”

“Food was good, drinks excellent, service was great. The caesar salad was easily the best Ive ever had. Im not usually that excited over salad but it was just perfect. The rest of what we ordered was not amazing but still good. Loved our server, good vibe. Will definitely go back.”

“Holy moly what a lovely surprise. The honey butter muffin and miso toasted Matcha was divine. Will be back for the breakfast sandwich and other treats!!!! Highly recommend”

“Loved Willie Mae's the best bartender was Jasmine and her passion lemon drops Gumbo Corn bread and fried chicken I can't wait to go back now and I've been to Nola like 8x and had never stopped in A must now on my list”

“Went here for my birthday dinner and it was exceptional. Romantic and cozy atmosphere with decor that transports you to Venezuela. The owner helped us order the best flank steak and branzino I've ever had. Definitely try the homemade hot sauce. Can't wait to go again!”

“The food is always flawless. Best steak in the city of New Orleans! Cocktails are also excellent and the ambience is an A+. The service was a little slow this time around. But our waiter was excellent. Not sure what the issue was. It was busy but not packed.”

“Awesome food!!! We were party of 8 and combined sampled most of the dishes. 5 - Stars”

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

“Best dive in New Orleans! A must visit when you come to the big easy!”

“My friends and I stopped at Sweet Saint today and were served by Kenny. He shared about the locally sourced ingredients and how his ice cream is made on-site. We loved our experience with Kenny and we LOVEDD our ice cream. I would recommend Sweet Saint to anyone and everyone!!”

“Place is really cool! I've never had Sochu or Sake before and our bartender Fernando was really cool, he explained different drinks flavors very well. Aesthetically pleasing place as well. The bathroom is weird but cool with all the cats.”

“Great pizza in a small spot. I recommend picking up pizza and bringing it to your hotel to eat! Had a slice of Forbidden pie and slice of Italian Stallion. Both were delicious!!”

“Bar was fantastic, service was awesome, but the red beans and rice was a bit bland, not really any flavor. I recommend any other dish and you will have a great time here!”

“We enjoyed every bite but we wouldn't have ventured to unfamiliar items without the guidance and attention we received from Cameron. Though he was assisting, he was more attentive and engaged than our server. He truly gave us a dining experience to remember. Order the sardine pate toasts and the blood sausage—you won't be disappointed.”

“Another hidden gem in NOLA. This is your neighborhood’s cafe where one can work or have small talks with someone. My friends and I took the bus there from our hotel (5-7 mins walk from the bus stop) we wanted to come for the coffee and show support , we found the cafe on IG. Personally I prefer cafe like this oppose the big chain coffee shops. I would recommend, the cafe is beautiful decorated and the service was fast and friendly.”
