Our experience was magnified 1000 fold by meeting our server Ms. Kathy! She is a true gem and she’s our favorite part of our visit!!

Delicious food and wonderful service. I recommend the croissant french toast and beignets if you like sweets. My fiancé had the Monteleone Breakfast which is the traditional eggs/meat/biscuit. He's very particular about how his eggs are cooked and they nailed it. There was a jazz duo which was nice and not loud so you could hear yourself talk. Highly recommend this place.

Great creole breakfast / brunch spot.
Located inside the historic Hotel Monteleone.
Ordered Eggs Benedict and Fried green tomatoes. Both are perfectly cooked. The staff is hospitable and helpful. The restaurant and the hotel are beautiful. Would return for their weekend jazz brunch for live music.

As we walked in we did feel judged by the hostess, she look at us like we didn’t belong.. and then felt like we were being watched my the management/supervisor like we were going to dine and dash.. I comment a wee bit loud about it and then he walked away.. however, that all left our mind when Jessica served us.. she was spectacular.. there are not enough words to say how she made us welcome.. the food was good, but pricey.. hash browns MEH! way too much spice.. coffe was strong but delicious .. beignet to die for… would we go back, maybe but the prices were higher then the value of the book in my opinion..

Beware of the parking situation… we had a horrible experience with parking. Free valet parking is advertised, although it was not offered to us…. I had several restaurant choices to celebrate my birthday while visiting town from out of state, we chose this one as it had great reviews. We were told free parking was available and my husband even called the day of our visit and he was reassured of this. When we went to retrieve our cars, the valet personnel charged us for parking and mentioned they didn’t know anything about free parking when people eat at the restaurant, we even went to the hotel to speak with someone and no one was able to help us and there was no one from the restaurant available to speak with us. It was a horrible experience. First of all false advertisement, then not properly taking care of your guests. It is extremely frustrating and disappointing when businesses take advantage of people like this.

Great dining experience every time we've been here. We've tried the breakfast, brunch, and lunch menu items and been pleased with them all. The brunch portions are the largest by far so it's great for sharing! We love the fried green tomatoes, they're always perfectly cooked and packed with flavor. If you like pasta the lunch options are all delicious and start out vegetarian and then you select the added protein of your choice from their list of add ons, it's a great option that feels like it satisfies everyone. Breakfast and brunch have fewer vegetarian/vegan options but are still tasty so long as you're not looking for a high protein vegetarian breakfast. If you're staying in the hotel this is a great place to grab a bit and the wait for a table it typically short. Staff is all exceptionally helpful and polite.

Had breakfast and lunch on different days. The food was as good as any fine dining in French Quarter, without a formal dress code. It was convenient, as it was in Hotel Monteleone, where we were staying. Returned multiple times because of the live music, polite service, and delicious options.

Our dinner at Criollo has been the highlight of our New Orleans trip! Food is crazy delicious. We had the bread service and scallops for starters with our margaritas and the duck and the NY strip for our mains. We paired those with wine.

What sets it all apart from all the wonderful places in the city we’ve been to is our server Merry. Not only is she knowledgable about everything in the menu, but she is also hospitable, warm, and engaging. She goes above and beyond — Criollo gets an extra star for her!

We’ll be recommending Criollo to everyone we know who’s visiting New Orleans. Amazing experience! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
