“Wandered in because it was so pretty inside through the window, and sure enough, it was on the inside too! I didn't have much appetite but felt social and curious, so I sat up at the barter chatting with other guests and browsing menus. I eventually went with a couple drinks made by bartenders Will and Nick, who will steer you in the right direction if you ever find yourself clueless yet captivated at their bar.“

“What a joy. Thanks to Peter for the great service from the bar and knowledge of the history of Blake’s. Paris in the kitchen dished my spectacular shrimp bacon burger and my date’s scallops in a white wine sauce which she described as “perfect.” Carried home the wowzer bread pudding. We’ll be back to try the weekend brunch. Great people make delicious food even better.“

“By Far the best food we have eaten here in New Orleans so far!! Highly recommend! There were 6 of us and every one of us loved our plates. They have a variety to choose from and the portion sizes are huge! Not to mention the great service! The waiters and waitress are the best!!! If you’re here in New Orleans don’t miss out!!“

“Lets start with the appetizer. We chose the fried calamari, it was a perfect contrast between the crunchy exterior and the slightly chewy, briny interior. it was not greasy at all.

In short: crispy, tender, savory, and a little addictive

I ordered the 8oz filet mignon cooked medium well, and it exceeded my expectations. It came out with a beautifully seared crust and a warm, slightly pink center—exactly how I like it

If you like your steak cooked medium well but still want that melt-in-your-mouth texture, this is the way to go.“

“Had lunch here as part of a bespoke tour with Accidental Cajun Experiences. We not only enjoyed incredible food, but had the opportunity to chat with the owner and staff. Beautiful people creating food they love. DO NOT SNOOZE ON VAUCRESSON's!“

“We’ve been 3 times in NOLA and 3 times in this restaurant. The food is GREAT !
The plates are pretty big so worth the price.
It’s totally in the spirit of a classic Italian restaurant. If you are looking for a fancy perfect restaurant it’s maybe not your best choice.
But if you want to eat good food and hear the stories of the owners ans start discussions with other peoples this would be the place.
We’ll be back !“

“Reginelli’s Pizzeria is a little off my normal path but I am really glad I stopped by. The decor is lively, with photographs of music legends on the walls. The background music is also very nice.

“Step back in time to the classic crooners era. Exceptional customer service. 1pm on Thursday, driving down St. Charles passing the time until I needed to be some place, passed this little gem and decided to pop in. I was immediately greeted and sat by Mr. Otis. Promptly bringing water. Mr. Georgio informed me of the availability of fresh softshells, and took my order. Sitting by the window watching the beautiful streetcars going up and down St. Charles. There was a few people in the restaurant but it was a whole vibe. Meal was fantastic. I watch a sweet older couple ask Mr. Georgio about the street car, he walked the couple across the street and give instructions on what to do. Absolutely suggest taking the time to visit. Two guests, appetizer, 2 lunch specials, water and tea bill was in the mid $60s without tip.“

“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!“

“Shout out to the entire team at Two Tony’s. My son and fiancés rehearsal dinner was outstanding. Mr. Tony and his team are the best. Great food and excellent service. We had a party of 30 and everything was PERFECT! I highly recommend them for your party. Very reasonable prices as well.“
