What a lovely restaurant. A neighborhood gem with plenty of space to accommodate groups small or large. Every dish was delicious from appetizers to desserts. Reasonably priced. We had a wonderful server, Grace, and tried nearly everything. Highly recommend the oysters, deviled eggs, fish spread, duck leg confit, and fish of the day.
My all-time favorite restaurant
Gumbo is amazing... staff is great, such a inviting presences.

Patois is highly regarded as one of the best restaurants in New Orleans, known for its consistent excellence and service. The menu features standout dishes like the braised beef ragu and braised short rib entree, which are tender and flavorful. Brunch and dinner both receive high praise, with well-seasoned, hot food and attentive but unobtrusive service. The bar offers great drink recommendations, and the bourbon and basil based concoctions are particularly popular. A variety of fresh breads are served, including house-made options that are exceptional. The restaurant is cozy and lively, set in a charming converted uptown home, and reservations are recommended due to its small size. Customers have enjoyed unique appetizers like the zucchini balls and buffalo blue oysters, and the eggplant parmesan and steak frites are also crowd favorites. The atmosphere is comfortable and cozy, making it a great spot for a nice night out. Parking is available on the street, but guests are advised to arrive early as it is first come, first serve.
