Best bartenders on earth!!! And if you're lucky enough to see Jordan Anderson on a Saturday night, then you know it's the best spot in New Orleans on any given Saturday!! Great ambiance!

The food and atmosphere is incompatible!!! I love my gumbo and the Bayou burger (the meat patty is flavorful!) The ice cream cake (Mile high pie) is a bit pricy but I really love having sweets while enjoying the music (My friend doesn't like the mint flavor in the strawberry ice cream but I like it) relaxing atmosphere, The best combination of tasty food, and jazz music!

Great drinks, food & service. We stayed in the Pontchartrain Hotel this week & were in the bar every day. Staff very friendly. Food was delicious & they have a healthy pour on the drinks. Atmosphere is relaxing.

We where looking for a place to eat close to our hotel to eat. I looked on my phone and found Bayou bar just across the street. So we decided to give a try. Glad we went we both had the bouyou burger. We both thought the burger was delicious. One of the best burgers we have had. At a restaurant. Definitely need to go back and have that burger again and try there other food options. Next time we visit.

Visited twice had drinks and dinner. Their sugar cane old fashioned is top notch. The red beans, rice and ham steak is distinctly flavored. Really good. Old School atmosphere at its best. Just sit there and watch the trolleys go bye.

The daytime bartender really is a gem. She was so friendly and welcoming, makes a hell of a tasty drink, and I will say - when t was slow she didn't stop working. She was keeping the place orderly and clean. I ended up working there for a couple hours after checkout and she was the best. I ordered the Molly Ringwald as my "because why not?" And it was delightful. Had the rib tips for lunch and they were also fantastic. Sweet and full of flavor. Great addition the hotel experience!
Best Jazz But Bad Service!!!!! ??I waiting for a long time but no one asked me for seats. They are just walk around like they are didn’t see me. So

Wow! We had a fantastic time at the Bayou Bar yesterday evening. The service? On point: well-timed and not intrusive, and our server JC treated us like royalty. The food? Each of our four dishes were so tasty, flavorful and fresh. (They have a much larger menu than what you see online, so there are plenty of options to choose from.) We are vegan, and I wasn't sure if there would be much for us to eat, but I just reached out in advance and the team was so accommodating to our request. Of course, we sampled a few of their drinks, and each one was fabulous, in both taste and presentation. The music? Their Wednesday night jazz combo was so good - a great interpretation of some quintessential tunes and some that we didn't recognize - all were outstanding. The band interacted with the crowd and seemed to be having as much fun as the listeners. The atmosphere? If you are like me, I love a good ambiance. The Bayou Bar is warm and welcoming and it was fun watching the St. Charles streetcar outside the window. We enjoyed the lovely holiday decorations and particularly the cocktail ornaments. (Do be aware that the bar is lively and popular - at least it was last night - so get there early if you want a seat!)We also had the pleasure of meeting Katie, the manager. She was so friendly and professional, and you could tell she really cared for her team and the patrons. She has done an amazing job curating an over-the-top experience. Our visits on this trip to New Orleans have included the Commander's Palace and the Grill Room at the Windsor Court and our experience at the Bayou Bar blew both of those institutions out of the water. We will be back for sure!
