This place is lovely. My daughter and I have been coming here for years. The food is always good, and the owner is so sweet. Don’t miss the delicious vegetarian lentil soup and the couscous - with fish or vegetarian! The mint tea is a special treat.

I went here for dinner of my first night ever in New Orleans and nothing else Ihad that trip compared to the food I had here. Its a small, dimlit restaurant with a very welcoming and passionate staff that put all their love into the cooking, and the service. The Zucchini Crawfish Bisque I had was soul snatching, and without a doubt the best thing I ate in NOLA. This will be a place I go to everytime im in town.

Wandered in while exploring Maple St. and was blessed with one of the finest meals of my life.
Food was delicious, I got a bowl of lentil soup to start (partially eaten already in the picture), complimentary bread service that was superb, and couscous au poulet as an entree. All were tasty and hearty dishes, just what I needed after a chilly autumn night’s walk :)
The place itself is also well furnished and has a fantastic ambiance to it, good choices of music from whoever brought the cd’s that were being played by the kitchen. Artwork and other decorations complimented the room and made the place feel very welcoming and warm :)
Service was amazing, the gentleman that seated me and was my waiter is a wonderful and friendly man who was very attentive. Sprinkled some magic water on my hands as I walked out to celebrate my birthday :D
I recommend everyone in the universe try this place, a real blessing in the neighborhood <3

Lovely family owned business. The salads were super refreshing. I also had the spinach bisque and tajine lamb which were both yummy. Also love the garlic butter that came with the bread 😄

In a city with incredible food and incredible experiences, Jamila’s stands out. The food was impeccable, but the service truly set this place apart. The owners did all of the little things to make our party feel at home. Truly one of the most wonderful restaurants I’ve been to, and I will absolutely be back!

This is textbook warmth in hospitality. Moncef and Jamila are a shining example of what it can feel like to be truly welcomed and looked after in a restaurant-exactly like home. Thank you for such a lovely evening.

The best and coziest restaurant I have been to in New Orleans. I got tiramisu and tea with mint, both incredibly delicious. Big thank you to Mr Sbaa for making all the guests feel so welcome. A must try restaurant if you are ever in the city!
