“Ordered the roast beef poboy ez mayo and NO pickles. Kitchen put them on, realized their mistake and took almost all of them off, but forgot to take off the pickle juice. Ruined my sandwich. However, the meat was tender and tasty and the service was great.“

“Bob Boudreau and I were in NOLA for 9 nights. Three of the nights we had reservations at other places with family. Our 1st night we looked up and found Jewel of the South. We loved it so much. we asked our nephew, his medical school advisor and his wife to join us. All three lived in NOLA and had never been here. All 5 of us would definitely go back in a heart beat. Great food. Great atmosphere. Great drinks. Great staff. GREAT ALL AROUND! FIVE STARS for Jewel of the South.“

“The food was not what I expected, it was hot, fresh, and beautifully presented.“

“Delicious and charming! Go!!“

“I celebrated a birthday at Ralph’s and it was a great experience. The food was excellent, and the service was great. I had the Chicken Cobb salad and a surprise nectar float as part of my birthday celebration! What a treat. The decor from the old New Orleans style building, to the painted murals and white tablecloths was superb. Free street parking out front and a free parking lot in the back is a big plus. A wall of windows gives a superb view of New Orleans city park as well. Reasonably priced and definitely a treat!Parking: Plenty of free, convenient street and lot parking plus valet if you choose.“

“What a.stunning wine list! Both eclectic and a great value! Food is also outstanding….“

“I recently dined here for the first time and was surprised I had not heard of this place sooner. The food, atmosphere, and service were all great. The hi-lights of the meal include the gnocchi and the halibut special, although everything we had was delicious.“

“We went yesterday and the wait was 2 hours. Got there a little earlier today and we got in. I’ve eaten at the Uptown location and was so happy they opened up another one that’s closer. It was my daughter’s first time and she said the food is so good and understands why there is a wait.“

“So amazing!! Elevated twists on the dishes!! Great atmosphere, and an incredible experience!! Never disappoints!!“

“Loved eating in the courtyard last night. Service was awesome!“

“Great experience. Food was excellent. A couple of us got Steak Frites medium rare. It came out perfect temperature. Brisket with Brussels sprouts were delicious. Steak Caesar Salad came out perfect as well. We had bread pudding to finish off the meal. It was a perfect meal to celebrate a birthday. Service was excellent. Highly recommend.“

“Amazing late night menu for both food and bevs!“

“The Toups’ Burger was one of the best burgers I’ve ever had! Our waiter was very knowledgeable in the dishes and kept our drinks full. I highly recommend this place. Next time I go I want to try the smoked duck!“

“Absolutely amazing. We came for our anniversary and while we didn’t share that with the staff they really made us feel so special. Incredible food and service.“

“My husband and I have eaten at August twice. Both times the food was excellent. The waitstaff are very nice and attentive. However, on both occasions the service was very rushed. Each course arrived about 5 - 7 mins after the prior course was cleared. The setting is very nice but it is very noisy. Also, they add a 3% “admin fee” for all payments made with a credit card. In my opinion, this is inappropriate in a restaurant of this caliber.“

“Cool atmosphere and good cakes!“

“I recently stopped by Killer Poboys and was thoroughly impressed with my meal! The grilled shrimp poboy was a highlight, with juicy and flavorful shrimp that were perfectly seasoned. The cauliflower poboy was also a winner, with a nice char and tender texture. The bread was toasted to perfection, adding a satisfying crunch to each bite. And the spicy potato salad was a pleasant surprise, with a refreshing kick that added a nice depth to the dish. Overall, I was thoroughly pleased with my experience at Killer Poboys and can't wait to go back and try more of their delicious offerings!“

“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 was a complete surreal experience. It took me nearly 5 days to sort out how to write this review. We dressed smart and to impress with unique style in a linen suit and gothic dress. From the very start I had an original and unique experience. Without selecting the table originally we were sat ring side at a table facing a full wall of glass overlooking the kitchen. Oddly only two were available and a solo diner sat at the other. I am still curious how we were luck to watch the chefs work. We then were invited back for a tour of the kitchen and a presentation of fresh selections of what would be prepared. I saw no one else get the same tour. Why we were the only ones to get that I dont know. We both chose different tasting menus. The classic and contemporary or local. Being given several more tastings ahead of the substantial dinner. Everything was beyond comparison and though the wine pairs were unique and may not be preffered on their own alone they were expertly and deliciously paired for each course. What took me 5 days to write this was to sort out what happened. Dish #5 was a pan seared rainbow trout with almonds. Tbe second I took a bite I was consumed with emotions of nostalgia. The last time I ever had anything like it was on tbe Brule River of wisconsin as a child being taught flyfishing and enjoying what we caught that day on the hidden cedar built lunchgrounds. I have never cried while eating a dish of any sort but I did over this one. I complimented tbe chef seen on the other side of the glass and he showed gratitude in return. They served us many plates before and after what was on the selected menu and the entire staff was attentive to every need and wish. I was complimented that I stood as a gentleman every time may date left or returned to the table. I was i.pressed they also took care of subtle drops or spills on the table cloth. Defitely opt for the cheese course at the end. It was a wonderful quiet evening where I could enjoy my company where as the next evening at another fancy retaurant we were seated agsinst an obnoxious loud table where I couldnt hear my friend sitting at my shoulder. I will certainly choose Emerils over any other restaurant in NO in the future.Dietary restrictions: Accomodated cilantro allergy.“

“Love The Will & The Way! We happened upon it in 2021 and stop by every time we’re in NOLA♥️“

“Had delivery food was hot and amazing!! Grits were so good. Had omelette as well. Everything we had was good. I live in the FQ will definitely being going to the cafe. Best breakfast had in a long time delivered.“

“I heard about this place online, and they did not disappoint. The line was down the street. There were people from all over the country (FL, TX, MD, DC- and they weren't together)in line that came to visit and try their food. I wanted to try everything, but I got fish with a side of chicken, mac and cheese, and glazed/sweet green beans. Everything was so good. The chicken was so crispy and juicy. The catfish was flaky with crispy flavorful batter - and I don't even like catfish... let me say that! The portion sizes were amazing, and so was the customer service. They have Anointed Confections inside the store that sell the most delicious cakes, cupcakes, and pound cakes(not sure about pie) but dem cakes...look baby! Moist, flavorful, and not overly sweet. Like a band of grandma's and church ladies made dem cake...lol....Go check out Chicken Kitchen and Anointed Confections“

“The food and service are fantastic. I really love the way they do fish. Exquisite“

“Great brunch and dog friendly“

“Absolutely excellent all around. Everyone at our table loved what they ordered. The duck special was fantastic. For a memorable meal, you can’t go wrong.“

“The best food in the whole city of NEW ORLEANS HOMECOOKED FOOD THAT IS“

“Absinthe!!!!! Awesome atmosphere in this place!“

“Our group of 4 split about 65% of the menu options and they were all SPECTACULAR. Highly recommend the roasted oysters, the flounder, the short rib and the strawberries in cream.Dietary restrictions: They were exceptionally responsive to my egg allergy.“

“Really good food and fantastic, friendly service. Great happy hour deals (1/2 price) on wine and apps. Definitely recommend.“

“We were here on April 20th for brunch, from Toronto, Canada! We were so pleased with the hospitality, tasty brunch and professional service by the manager (distinguished gentleman) and waitstaff who accommodated us as a group of 10 for my bachelorette! We are so quickly we didn't get a chance to take pics, but the goblets (they were huge!) of bottomless mimosas made into the photo reel. Thank you for a great experience, we will be back!“

“This was our second time coming here! The alligator and etouffee dogs were really yummy and unique! Better than any normal hot dog. The etouffee fries were a bit too liquidy, and they could’ve put more meat, but we still enjoyed the concept. It wasn’t worth the $7, but it’s definitely something worth trying once.“

“Always love it,great food and awesome service!......“

“Great food, delicious cocktails, great vibe!!“

“I usually go to the Frenchman St. location but am staying in the Garden District this time. Both times at the Magazine St. location the person at the counter was curt, unfriendly, and seemed to basically hate being there. I can understand that it’s not a career position, but that’s no excuse to be a downer. That being said the food is excellent. Love the variety, the quality. Just hoping that the next time I come in the person taking the order has a smile on their face.“

“I usually get the beef sirloin when I come here (which is also a great deal during lunch)…. The service and food have been great! I had Drake as a server once and Jordan two other times when I sat at the bar, alone. Both of them were very attentive, cordial, and informative.“

“Went there Saturday night and stayed till close. Chris was our bartender and although they were super busy he was always there when needed. He recommended a great aperitif to finish the night based on our preferences and was an overall great experience with food and drinks!!! Only my second time going (first in 2011) and need to go more often when traveling to NOLA.“

“Great food and better service.“

“We decided to stay in Kenner this year for the Jazz Fest and glad we did as we found Zea!! It hit all my star indicators - very clean, the staff was delightful and the dishes were delectable. Our server, Paris, was knowledgeable about the dishes, shared her opinions about dishes (which I appreciate) and was as charming as the city she is named after. We also chatted with John, the manager and he shared how Zea was created and we could tell he loved being part of the team - as did other team members. Of course we are Southerners so we swap other stories :). As far as the food, Paris helped us pick the perfect dishes for sharing - the Duck Empanada, Asian Ribs (get the 8 as u will be disappoint if u choose only 4), the Pepper Jelly Spinach Salad, with Sweet Ice Tea. To top it off we dipped our spoons into the enticing Sweet Potato Bread Pudding with a tantalizing rum sauce — a must for all future visits. Thanks Zea, for a perfect meal at the end of a perfect Jazz Fest!!Parking: Easy in and out as near a mall“

“Included Jazz Playhouse as part of a larger corporate excursion, and our experience was perfect! Leon was very helpful and attentive in the planning process, the Nayo Jones Experience entertainment was great, and servers Gavin and Alexis kept drinks flowing. An overall fabulous event!“

“After my review the owner has reached out to me. I must say she was very nice and professional. I understand things do happen in life and she reached out promptly to fix the issue and make it right. Very Professional! Me and my friends will be revisiting for my birthday next month ❤️?“

“Marcus is an awesome chef!“

“Good value for a quick overnight stop and full nights rest. The hotel was very clean. Pillows and blankets very soft which the family liked a lot. Good water pressure. Location is easy proximity to explore tourist spots without being on the busy loud main drags. We took a 10 min petty cab bike ride to bourbon and walked all the way down and over to Frenchman. Chose a room with View of the river which was nice, the kids felt “fancy”. Only parking available is valet, but our dually truck was not accepted so we had to park overnight in the lot next door $40. Housekeeping knocked on our door at 9am on a Saturday which was annoying so do put on the do not disturb sign. AC was working well and strong but my husband said he noticed feeling stuffy from the vents.“

“AWESOME vegan gumbo !!! Horrible service - everyone out front acted as if we were inconveniencing them to order or pick up our food! I wish I hadn’t tipped 18% beforehand!“

“Okay. This place was so cool. We went in at a super quiet time and had the whole spot to ourselves. Our server, Corshaya (I probably spelled that SO wrong and I'm sorry ) was so accommodating. You can tell they all vibe together there. Everybody came over to check on us and make sure we were happy. The fried chicken, and I'm not exaggerating, was the best fried chicken I've ever had in my life. Idk how they mastered the perfectly crispy outside with the juicy, perfectly cooked inside but oh man, they nailed it. We had the signature coffee drink, Miss Tracy's Addiction, and I loved that. The person I was with doesn't like coconut, and they still loved it, in spite of the coconut milk. So creamy and well-balanced. Not too sweet, and you could still taste the coffee perfectly in the flavor mix. Shaya gave us a ton of great recommendations for our trip and filled us in on the different districts. Thanks for all your help!!“

“I was born on Jefferson Highway and after eating the amazing food here I can happily die of a food coma on Jefferson Highway. Portions were very surprising in their generosity. The service was perfect. We didn’t have a single server, it was awesome teamwork. The interactions and conversations were relaxed and welcoming. We are already planning to return.“

“Enjoyed a wonderful meal at The Apothecary. Everything was great including the service. Definitely would recommend.“

“The best on the water an great dining“

“I visited the location on Ponchatrain in Nola last night _ I will NEVER dine in late at night - The host was outside playing with the managers dog in the parking lot - She walked in the side door and greeted me picked up the menu and NEVER sanitized or washed her hands. The server complained about it being slow- My food came out cold- The manager on duty last didn't care- They put my side dishes in the microwave They served me the same cold chicken I sent back and just put it on the grill for a few minutes. Horrible customer service experience and the quality of the food was worse.“
