“In desperate need of a low-key quiet atmosphere in New Orleans, this place hit the spot.Quaint, quiet, some chill live music and some decent wine which is a major challenge in NOLO.Not a huge fan of the self-service wine and cheese board but it worked! Nice outdoor patio.“
“Hunter, our server, made the entire experience delightful! I'd like to shout out the bartender too, as these were by far the best alcoholic beverages we had the entire weekend! I can't wait to come back and look into staying at Maison with my hubby! We hope Hunter is still around, as his personality sold the experience ??.“
“Ordered the seafood platter and a filet to share. Everything was great. We make a special side trip to eat here and were not disappointed.The only thing lacking was the bread which not great and New Orleans has good bread so it could have been better.Parking: Free valet, just pull up front.“
“We were looking for a non-touristy spot after seeing an amazing jazz performance at Preservation Hall. The bartender prior to the performance recommended a few places including The Grapevine. We sat at the bar and were greeting immediately and the bartender Michael was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. They start out every meal with individually warmed baguettes and specialty whipped butter, that night it was cracked pepper and truffle. We shared a couple items off of the specials (an artichoke soup that was to die for and a roasted marrow bone topped with Creole style crawfish tails) and then the caprese which may seem simple but was done to perfection with a NOLA flair topped with seafood. The price point was also amazing for both food and alcohol. This was definitely our most favorite eatery experience while in NOLA.“
“Intimate setting. Plenty of quality starters/snacks including crawfish beignets and fries. I got the Romaine salad with chicken and didn't love it. My date for a vegetarian option which she loved. Good ambiance, hip, cool & friendly servers“
“Incredible food. Most dishes are appropriately small so it encourages sharing and a family-style approach. Pizzas are really something else and the pastas are to die for. Really great choices in wines, and although the price tags arent low, it is worth it.“
“All of my senses were OVERWHELMED with pleasure at Criollo's Jazz Brunch! The service and food was superb Michelin level quality. The live jazz band kept me entertained as I was coursed out. The chef elevated the fried green tomatoes and chicken biscuit to an award winning level. The chicken biscuit was smothered in jalapeño's, scallions and the best rue I have ever tasted so I sent my compliments to the chef. Every delectable bite forced my eyes shut so I could deeply enjoy the freshness, flavor and texture. While I was enjoying coffee the chef sent complimentary Rosemary & Lemon Custard Madeline's. It was an innovative way to approach this classic pastry. My only critique is the custard on top was so good I wanted more. Very light, fresh, and balanced melody of flavors. The consistency was reminiscent of a fusion between a scone and puff pastry. You can tell the French invited fries by how well the fries here complimented every dish. It was such a phenomenal experience, I found myself making reservations for the next day halfway through brunch and I am happy to say the food, service and entertainment are consistently great here. The fancy French atmosphere at Hotel Monteleone was fit for a Queen and the bathroom attendant cleaned the stall prior to each guests use. This is a must try spot in The French Quarter.“
“This is one of my absolute favorite restaurants in New Orleans. The food is outstanding, without trying too hard or overdoing it in any way. Pairings of flavors are superb, the food is consistently outstanding, and the service is knowledgeable and spot on. The location is perfect, too.“
“such a cute lil spot. only got one dish and it was very good (crudités) and wish i could go regularly to try more stuff because what i had was so promising! but the star of what i tried was the soft serve (chocolate with chili crisp), it was smooth and creamy and a nice level of chocolate. good vibes and folks. if i lived in new orleans would hit this spot up often!“
“Awesome dinner as always. Made reservations at the last minute and they accommodated us right away and then when we arrived we were seated right away. Steaks, creamed spinach, asparagus and so much more was perfect. Our waiter Travis was the best! Seeing Glenn Bove made our night extra special.“
“Pluck has a terrific selection of wines by the glass and the bottle. The wines you will find here are carefully selected and there are several fun surprises beyond the usual suspects. The food is also excellent. And the staff are knowledgeable and well trained.“
“Effervescence is a little off the beaten path but is worth the journey. They have an excellent selection of bubbly by the glass, it's not only Champagne but from all around the world. The brussels sprouts were some of the best I've eaten but the food in general was very good. The owner is very friendly, highly recommend making this part of your New Orleans food experience!“
“Best overall food experience ever! Every course was meticulously prepared and described perfectly so we could know exactly what we were tasting in every bite. the wine pairings were absolute perfection. Superb chefs, and the entire staff was friendly and professional. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“
“we have been there on numerous occasions .consistent great foods ,cooked to perfection ,extra ordinary wine selections at very reasonable price points ,and excellent service staff.,happy hours are also great as are the weekly free new wine samples, all staff are very knowledgeable and food is perfectly prepared ,will continue to eat here“
“My colleagues (5 of us) and I had a great meal here. We came by on a Sunday night at 8pm and we were able to sit immediately. The Jungle Bird cocktail was delicious, as were the pizzas we tried. The dough was perfectly chewy and charred. We had a lemon dessert that was delicious The hazelnut dessert stole the show, so creamy and rich.“
“Yo this was the best pimento cheese and crackers I’ve ever had. Everything I could dream of in one place. Coffee, snack and alcohol. Plus good vibes. There was a girl sitting and studying, chillin. If I was still in school, I’d totally be here every day.“

Whether you are staying at the hotel, visiting the Jack Rose, or stopping by the Hot Tin, they’ll always welcome you with a smile. Delicious cocktails await your view of the New Orleans city line. Highly recommend stopping by or hanging out on your visit!“
“I LOVE Tell Me Bar! It's adorable and the ambiance is impeccable. I've been a few times and know very little about wine and every single person who works here is always so sweet and never makes me feel like a ding dong for not knowing anything! They are SO gracious, kind and always pour me something delicious! Huge fan.“
“We came here for happy hour (4-6) for half off all bottles of wine and half off the mussels and fries! Both were excellent and great portions! Our server Sara was super nice and helpful, she gave us a lot of recs and talked through all of the wines with us. We sat outside on the front patio and it was just so lovely, busy but not too packed. Overall def recommend and will come back!“
“I LOVE this place. The employees are fantastic, the ambience is wonderful, and the wine picks are amazing. There’s always someone to help you pick out what fits your taste, and BONUS! There are bottles to buy & take home for yourself or gifts. Amazing place and go happy to have it here in Algiers Point!!!!“
“I was visiting New Orleans for 6 weeks and was so happy to have Swirl next door! Such a great, neighborhood wine shop with a nice, affordable selection, great staff, and a comfortable atmosphere. My dog even loved visiting (they have dog treats behind the bar)!“
“Our first stop in the French Quarter this place is tucked away on one of the side streets. There's a nice outdoor area and a very cool air conditioned seating area inside with lots of couches and chairs to hang out at.Mostly wine, sparkling wine, and various cocktails. Everything was priced reasonably for a wine bar.There are lots of puppets and classic NOLA trinkets and artifacts to look at here as well. If your looking for something more casual near bourbon to hand out and escape the crowds this is a good stop.“
“Bayou wine is a staple and my friend groups hang out rotation. It's always so chill even when there's a crowd. How enjoyable it is to be out in the fresh air courtyard during the day or later evening, sipping my wine or frosè under the twinkle string lights. I especially enjoy visiting during crawfish season. The crawfish is always so good! On a nice weather day, it's really hard to beat the vibes at Bayou Wine. Other food items I enjoy is the mussels & garlic parm fries, boudin balls and fish and chips. I plan to get a charcuterie board next time I visit (after the crawfish). Parking can be frustrating in this area and the streets are pretty terrible so just be conscious of that. There is a parking lot across from Bayou wine- it's usually packed.“
“Staying nearby and drove by a few times and saw it was always busy. Walked up for an early dinner and couldn’t have been more impressed. Great people, great atmosphere and unbelievably delicious food made with fresh ingredients. Also found everything reasonably priced. Very happy that we trusted in our rule of eating where the locals go. How have they not been featured on the Food Network???“
“As some with multiple, severe food restrictions, Lamara was a wonderful surprise. Almost everything is gluten-free, and I had numerous dairy free and mammal free options as well.Vegetarian options: So many options! Try the Spring Roll bowl!Dietary restrictions: I am gluten-free and have alpha-gal. Earing out is always challenging and often disappointing. It was wonderful to have so many options.Kid-friendliness: Open space, bright and airy.Wheelchair accessibility: Wide open spaces and hallways.“
“Fantastic wine in a self serve environment with great small plates of food and charcuterie boards! The atmosphere is calm and laid back. The maps on the wall point out the wine regions covered; for example, France, Spain, Italy, and the USA to name a few. Use your card you receive upon entering to dispense a 1oz, 2oz, or 4oz pour of each one you select. Present the card pay at the register and there is a log of all your wines along with the amounts!“
“Had an amazing date night here with my husband! The server was so kind and we ended up speaking with the table next to us who were in from out of town as well. Just the best kind of place for mingling and eating. The steak was just delicious with that bone marrow on the plate. The duck three ways was just perfect ?“
“In town for the po boy festival, Calliope went out of their way to facilitate all of the people on the street with water and a nice space to sit... and of course their beers which were nicely priced, cold and delicious! I brew beer in the fl panhandle and I shall return to celebrate both your beer and your hospitality! Thank you!“
“Oak seemed to me as more a wine and cocktail bar that serves food than a restaurant. The food is good it just doesn’t seem to be the main focus, primarily small plates. Service was friendly and prompt. The live entertainment was was very good without being overwhelming. Overall a nice place to spend some time.Vegetarian options: Some non-meat dishesKid-friendliness: An adult environmentParking: On street parking in the area and a paid lot about a block awayWheelchair accessibility: Somewhat accessibleDietary restrictions: Staff will work with restrictions you make them aware of“
“This was a total hidden gem right above the bustling music halls of Frenchman street! The food was absolutely amazing. The charbroiled oysters, lamb lollipops, and octopus were perfection. With all the big name restaurants we visited in New Orleans, this was our favorite meal of the trip. Ambience was nice and quiet and the wines were awesome. You won't regret giving this place a try!“
“Been there 2x now and both visits were excellent..The Barthenders are very friendly and make some tasty drinks! The sirloin burgers were fantastic and definitely get the fries...should be called Gourmet Fries! Last but not least is the charming dimly lit atmosphere...Very inviting and friendly.We look forward to our next visit ⚜️⚜️⚜️“
“Although they were short staffed, the server was wonderful and the pizza was delicious. I recommend the thin crust. Some family members raved about the Cajun Shrimp pizza. I’d have given 5 stars except the restaurant was not very wheelchair accessible. I might have made it over the threshold. But, I wasn’t sure and didn’t want to get thrown out of my chair. So, we ate outside. The worst part was that the bathroom had a large concrete curb you had to step up on. There was no option for me.“
“Food is varied depending on which pop up is housed. The atmosphere is always great. The bar is spacious with plenty of bartenders. Beer selection is big here, and Wrong Iron also has some specialty beers and wine. The seating is plenty inside and outside. You can reserve sections for a private event. This bar is on the Lafitte Greenway and has a nice view. Plenty of televisions for viewing.“
“We hosted our wedding of roughly 60 guests at Barrilleaux's, and it was everything we could have hoped for and more. Our guests are still raving about all of the amazing food. It is a beautiful indoor setting, with plenty of tables for guests to mingle outside. At first, we were a bit worried that the space might be too small, but we had a six-piece band, and ice cream sundae bar, and still more than plenty of room to dance, for guests to hang out at their tables, and to walk around and mingle. We found out the day of the wedding that one of our guests was vegan. When we asked the chef if there were any vegan options on the buffet that we had planned, he went out of his way to make her an entire beautiful, custom vegan dinner. We thought this was absolutely above and beyond and we are so thankful to the chef! Brittani was wonderful to work with throughout the planning process, and Patsy was incredible on the day of. The team is super accommodating, friendly, and truly made it the best day ever.“
“The food was great. Oysters were different than any we've had in New Orleans anywhere else and well worth the price. Other foods also good and a very creative pairing and presentation. Ambience was made to feel like we had privacy although there were others nearby. Service was great, servers very attentive and knowledgeable but food little slow coming out of kitchen.“
“Great atmosphere but the DJ wasn’t that great.Drinks were strong and the people were all having a good time.I stayed because it was comfortable. I like places that offer seating that are not designated to bottle service!!Thanks for thinking about ladies in heals“
“Okay y'all, when I tell you I had my doubts.... They were absolutely unfounded.This place was AMAZING. Everything, the food, service, ambiance, bathroom, and cocktails.I brought my brunch bunch in this last Saturday for the bottomless deal. We had a 12 top and never wanted for a thing!I was actually SURPRISED at how effective the mimos were, despite the fact that they mixed them for you (not my favorite thing and I had called ahead and was told they specifically DID NOT DO THIS, but it all turned out to be just fine).Everything everyone ate was DEVINE. Not a single complaint to be had by my party of 12. That's quite a feat. I was having so much fun I didn't even get pictures of the food!I had the boudin has, delicious but the star of the show (besides of course our AMAZING, SWEET, PATIENT, BUTT KICKING server, Tara ?I think)) was the crawfish pie. It was more like a pot pie, with poached eggs. Absolutely DELICIOUS. And sooooo my charbroiled oysters to choose from!At some point there was gumbo and beignets too... Mmmm!This place is right around the corner from my job and I will definitely be back! Thanks Trenasse!2024 update- I have been back multiple times for both brunch and dinner and honestly everything is just as amazing every time. The service, the food, the ambiance... It just all hits even the price points! Don't sleep on the oyster log!!!Parking: This place is inside a hotel on St. Charles in the CBD - do with that information what you will!“
“The service staff was excellent from when we walked in all the way through getting to our car. Food was top notch and delicious especially the BBQ Shrimp. Was very impressed with the bread pudding as well. Overall one of the best meals I've had in a long time. Will 100% come back.“
“Went here for dessert and coffee after stuffing ourselves at another establishment. Love that about The Big Easy where you can restaurant/ bar hop all you want because they have late hours and are always friendly. (Makes it very easy to gain weight and get tipsy.) My cousin likes this place because unlike its fancy older brother Antoine which is just next door, Hermes does not require a dinner jacket or long pants. He wanted us to experience one of the big 3 French restaurants so we gladly obliged! We went for the bread pudding. I'm not even that big of a bread pudding fan, but I'm definitely a fan of theirs! It had a nice presentation and consistency, firm and smooth so your fork glides through, not like soggy bread in cream sauce that flops around. The baked Alaska was pretty good and comes with a generous cup of chocolate sauce so you can decide whether to drizzle or drown it but didn't wow me like the bread pudding. Actually the chocolate sauce was good on the bread pudding! Darn I forgot our server's name but he was young and friendly and gave us great leads on where to listen to jazz. Another great NOLA experience!“
“We strolled in here after a Mardi Gras parade, and were able to order from their full menu at around 10 PM. We were a little worried, because there weren’t many staff members, but the food came out quickly, and was totally delicious! Exceeded expectations!“
“I can't begin to describe how incredible our experience was here at Tasting Room! Such a great vibe from start to finish... we will definitely be back for brunch! Deco and ambiance are next level, great for pics! Also the drinks and food were incredible, we got the cheese board to start. Aside from all of this, the service was so great and very friendly. You don't want to miss out on this Magazine Street gem!“
“The service is fast, efficient, and completely knowledgeable on menu selection. The food is always much better than expected & portion sizes are perfect, even for sharing. Every time we dine here, we have expectations not met but exceeded. Doris Metropolitan is our #1 Nola pick every time!“
