Neek was our awesome server tonight and she was wonderful! She has a great personality and treated us very well. Shes was polite, helpful and very efficient. Food was terrific and Neek kept the drinks flowing. Thank you for a wonderful experience Neek!
Seafood Pistollettes were awesome!
If you're not sure on which regional favorites you like, try the Crescent City sampler.

This was our first stop upon arriving to NOLA, and our first intro to southern food. I got a sampler that accidentally came with all 4 dishes instead of 3(was only charged for the 3 I chose). Everything on my plate was delicious and had so much flavor! I couldn't finish it all but I did make sure to finish that Crawfish Etouffée! Waitstaff were great and despite it being almost closing time, they practically pulled us in off the corner.

Completely underwhelming! We started with appetizers which consisted of their French onion soup, and crab cakes. I’ll start by saying the French onion soups was on point , however, the crab cakes came out charred and lump crab cake is not used as they are full of stuffing. We split the main dish of Shrimp and Grits, which came out moments after receiving our appetizers. By the time we got to eat he shrimp and grits, they were cold, not to mention there was no flavor to the dish. So underwhelming that I was completely disappointed as I was so looking forward to this dinner. Not once where we asked how the meal was, as I would have spoken the truth to help improve someone else’s experience. Very disappointed and will not be returning.

Had the 4-dish sampler and each item was very good. The jambalaya though, had to be the best. Incredibly filling and delicious food! I got the bread pudding to go and I was disappointed by the lack of whipped cream on the bread pudding.
The front door is open though, so it is very loud. They get very busy, so the service can be improved.

We were staying at The Eliza Jane and asked the front desk for a local recommendation; somewhere authentic and not packed with tourists. Without hesitation, they suggested this restaurant, so we gave it a try our first evening in town.
It did not disappoint. In fact, it exceeded every expectation. The staff at the hotel had suggested a few dishes, but once we arrived, our server recommended the blackened redfish served over creamy Alfredo pasta...and it was absolutely phenomenal. Perfectly seasoned, rich, and unforgettable.
We ended the meal with their bread pudding, and it was pure perfection: warm, decadent, and the perfect sweet finish. This restaurant completely captured the spirit of New Orleans dining: soulful, welcoming, and full of flavor. I can't wait to go back.

Friday, late afternoon. Sampler, crab cake apps, some funky drink.
For some reason the gumbo in the sampler to me tasted like rubbing alcohol. The kitchen manager was exceptionally helpful. He brought me another bowl and tasted it himself. I smelled it and I thought it was still the same. He said they’d been serving from the same pot. So maybe it was just me! But he was exceptionally gracious and considerate . I hated to be a bother. He offered us a key lime pie which is the best key lime pie we’ve ever had. He offered coffee too which I insisted on paying for but he wouldn’t have it.
So while for some reason the gumbo was off to me, Chris, the kitchen manager went above and beyond. We didn’t even want it taken off the bill but just to make note of it or to see if it was just me.
Regardless, the ambiance is great, the staff is quick and friendly. Chris went above and beyond.

Food was pretty good but both servings of gumbo & etouffee were served room temp, like they sat for 10-15 minutes before being brought to our table. Service was mid at best, food was okay but I doubt I would go again or recommend to anyone.
Had a wonderful experience here on my last day of vacation. They were extremely accommodating of my girlfriend and I grabbing a bite after we had checked out of our hotel - they put our two large suitcases in a designated spot for us, and sat us at a table close by so our suitcases were in view. The food was delicious - exactly what we needed before our flights. Our server, LeRoy, was very polite, attentive, and made us feel so welcome. We never saw the bottom of our bottomless mimosas! Getting to look at all of the historic hand carved wooden features and older architecture was a lovely added bonus. We would definitely come back if we ever find ourselves in the area again! Many thanks, Pierre Maspero’s 💖

Amazing food and experience - a must try!
Only reason for the 4 stars is a rude waitress who pushed my wife and said “I said Excuse Me!!”, with no apology at all. Never seen such rude people before.
