would definitely return to Miss River! duck and andouille gumbo and shrimp bisque delicious. two in our party had the tasting menu at lunch and several dishes were excellent and others good, but not remarkable. Red beans and rice and fried chicken were worth a repeat. All in all, a good experience!

We enjoyed our jazz brunch at Miss River last weekend! Food was solid (the biscuits and gumbo particularly stood out!), the musicians that day were amazing, but service left way too much to be desired for a restaurant at this price point, especially in such a hospitality-focused city like New Orleans-- our server clearly was unhappy "having" to serve our particular table/ didn't know the menu in the least (e.g., arguing with the table that the restaurant didn't have a particularly common wine variety on their menu, when they had multiple options by both glass and bottle), taking over 20 minutes to bring pre-made beverages like beer or soda... after being reminded multiple times about the soda (that coke, in particular, took close to an hour to arrive!). That being said, would definitely come back-- food was delicious, location is awesome, and the restaurant itself is beautiful!

Amazing food, our waiter Matt, was knowledgeable and attentive. Wished we had dined here for NYE versus Chemin a la Mer .

I had high hopes for this restaurant, but it was sadly a very dreadful experience. First off, it took over 30 minutes to get a simple cocktail. Then the food took a ridiculous amount of time to get to the table. One entree was missed entirely and was brought 20 minutes after the others. No drink refillls occurred during the meal. Then when the plates were being cleaned off, the server dropped a container of ketchup and it went all over one of our party guests. Then we waited another 20 minutes for the check. Also, I had to go get the bottle of champagne myself for refills. Very disappointing!

Everything was delightful for my husband's 56 birthday. Food for large group was perfect option. I selected the private Parade Room so was disappointed we were not there. Cocktails perfect and memories better!
Alex
Que is the best waitress! We look forward to seeing her again every time! After a long train ride she is the smiling face and best every time. Miss River and Que is the only way to complete our trip!

I can’t say enough good things and bummed me to see it a bit of a slow crowd when the food was so good!

Crab roll was yummy, although very small, about half the size of a New England lobster roll. Wine list selection is great but geez the upcharge. One glass here was near equal to the full bottle charge at Total Wine. Service was great.

Miss River was so accommodating for our last minute reservation changes. We were greeted and seated right away even after adding 1 person to a large party reservation. The sweet potato brioche rolls were one of the best rolls I ever tried!

I came with high expectations, as I love Chef Alon’s other restaurants, and I was not disappointed.
We ordered the whole fried chicken and 2 was perfect. Juicy, and delicious. The cocktails were also creative and beautifully complex.
Our server Malik was wonderful, and took very good care of us.
Wonderful service and atmosphere! We enjoyed our quiet dining experience with unparalleled hospitality

Beautiful restaurant, absolutely amazing food. Alon Shaya hits another home run. This is a special occasion place with elevated southern cuisine.
Thank you to Malik for the attentive service!

Everything was great until 4 obnoxious young men sat at the table next to us, They were rude, loud and used constant f bombs. The staff recognized this and gifted us an amazing Baked Alaska! It was unexpected but fantastic.

Miss River, located inside the Four Seasons New Orleans, was such a great dining experience for our family of four! The restaurant is beautiful and elegant, yet still welcoming. They easily accommodated us and our two girls, who loved how “fancy” it felt. Our server, Matt, was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. He made great recommendations and really added to our experience.
We started with the sweet potato brioche, and it was absolutely incredible - soft, warm, and melt-in-your-mouth good. The butter they served with it complemented it perfectly! I ordered the New York strip, and it was simply amazing - one of the best steaks I’ve ever had. My husband got the redfish courtbouillon and really enjoyed it as well.
Everything from the service to the food was top-notch. We’d definitely come back the next time we’re in New Orleans!
