I’ve never written a review before, but I’m pleased that my first is for here and that it’s a positive one! Just had supper here last night, the service was very friendly but oh my goodness it was the best food I have had in such a long time! My husband and I both had the ‘Chefs Plate’ and both got different items so we could try each others, we will most definitely be going back and may even try brunch hours next time! Thank you a million for making a date night a success!!

Don't get me wrong, this place is pretty. Our waitress was kind and attentive. What fell short was the food. Bland and limited choices. The only good food staples were the desserts and the the red beans and rice. For the price point, the food simply does not justify.

HUGE disappointment! The place is nice, first off, band never played but we weren't there too long. Went for Brunch, the salad bar was huge, but thats about it. COLD eggs, COLD/GREASY bacon. They said there would be prime rib and etoufee's, some NOLA food... got there at 9:30a - nothing but ham (COLD). They said that came out after 11:30. They had one guy making omelettes (no eggs Benedict either that they advertised), but you have to stand in line and wait to get a hot egg in this place. There isn't enough to justify the $36 price tag... with the 2 of us, it would have been $120-130 with drinks, tax/tip... NO THANKS. We walked out instead. I don't think I'd try them for dinner with this false advertising!

Perfect spot for a true New Orleans Brunch. Our server Shawn was fantastic. So kind and helpful. The courtyard feels like you are stepping back in time and the jazz trio is such a special element. The red beans and rice was perfection-the best my husband and I have had and he’s from Louisiana ♥️. Will be back!

We went for the Sunday Jazz brunch and the buffet was definitely disappointing. The salad bar was unappealing with wilted bagged lettuce and a variety of premade salads that didn't look house made or fresh. The carved prime rib was ok, but meat was all cooked to well done. Very few veggies--frozen medley that looked quite mushy, creamed spinach that was bland and a corn dish that was ok. Red beans and rice wasn't bad, but most of the dishes were lackluster. Dessert all looked premade and not good, except for the bananas foster and bread pudding. Coffee was very good and the patio was nice, as was the jazz band but they played sporadically. This seems like a tourist trap with hoards of people and low quality food. Also, none of us felt well after eating there.

bleh, bland, BYE! BBQ shrimp was not bbq but more of shrimp scampi in Alfredo sauce if that makes sense. The lamb chops were VERY dry, almost undercooked. Turtle soup, good. Ambience was great. Service was annoying. The 3 different bus boys would ask us what plates to remove and then remove other ones that we didn’t ask for, multiple times. About $200 for 2 people.

This was a really good brunch. 5 stars for turtle soup, seafood pasta, boiled shrimp and fried catfish. The rest of the food was great just not top drawer, in that it was good but ordinary. The entire staff were attentive and flexible when we came an hour ahead of our reservation. The place is both historic and beautiful. Clean and bright. Took a star off because the jazz band played 20 min and left which doesn’t qualify as a jazz brunch to me!
solid 3.5 for this place we spent about 100$ for two people for brunch. i think it's overpriced for what you get. the "live jazz" is kind of a joke. the service was not great. asked for coffee several times, no creamer after 20 minutes, the one we got had a bug in it lol. no acknowledgement or apology. no acknowledgment of a birthday either. staff doesn't really care. please train your staff to do better. food was pretty good. great way to sample everything new orleans has to offer. i will not be back or recommend. i wonder if a lot of the reviews aren't real.

This place is an amazing institution. Great place for midweek Jazz Brunch if you aren’t sticking around for the weekend crazy of New Orleans. Whitney was a fantastic server and the food was top notch!
Dietary restrictions: Everything on the buffet was clearly labeled for allergens! A rarity in New Orleans!

So many people recommended this place and it was nice but not as good as expected. First cup of coffee was cold. Some of the food choices were luke warm. Peel and eat shrimp was mushy, couldn't even eat it. Everything was tasty though. Big selection so you can taste a lot of unique foods
