Cool bar with a great ghost story. They have a lot of events which can prevent you from the upstairs bar, which is the neatest part of the restaurant. Shrimp and goat cheese crapes, awesome.

Best meal, service, and drinks in New Orleans. The staff was exceptional- so friendly, genuine, and accommodating. Ayana and Tiffany are the best!! Amazing food & try the summer thyme blues cocktail!

Welcoming old world feel w/ two pleasant dining rooms, a courtyard and a balcony for drinks. Goat cheese & crawfish crêpes were delicious, as were all the catfish dishes.

Nice food & service in elegant dining rooms, with a wraparound balcony overlooking picturesque Jackson Square. But don't miss the "Seance Room" upstairs, worth a visit in itself. (Note: It's haunted.)
Beth BondSeptember 15, 2018
OMGoodness! An authentic New Orleans experience. Go for the Prix Fixe menu. Three courses of Contemporary Creole deliciousness!
Megan AllisonApril 29, 2016
Touristy, but you can't deny a drink on the upstairs balcony or in the seance room isn't fun. Seafood crepes and Albariño were a surprisingly good pairing. Say hi to Antoine. good luck getting a cab.
Natasha PetitJuly 13, 2018
The turtle soup, the drum fish, the bread pudding and even the honey they serve with the hot tea!
LouAnn MackeyFebruary 18, 2014
Thoroughly enjoyed the prix fixe menu for our anniversary dinner. Everything my husband and I ate was amazing. Probably the best pork chop I've ever eaten. Nice classy atmosphere. Would def go back!
Jonathan WebberNovember 30, 2016
The kitchen and FOH are all top notch. The prix fixe menu is great, but don't ignore the a la carte items. I got the duck - it was prepared just right. Classic NO restaurant.

The balcony setting is beautiful and the atmosphere can’t be beat. Food and service were great. It was packed but we didn’t have to wait at all. Conveniently located at Jackson square.

Loved the duck dish, great service okay on the ambience. My friends had other items on the menu and we were all happy with our choices 🙌🏾
Amanda ThauApril 18, 2014
They have a decent variety for their fixed price dinners. Definitely order the goat cheese crepes! For cocktails try the Fleur de Los - excellent taste and goes down way too easy!
Lindsay CMay 5, 2015
Beautiful restaurant with excellent specialty cocktails. Grab a drink at the downstairs bar and enjoy it on the upstairs balcony overlooking the square. Incredible around sunset!
Karen CooperDecember 14, 2020
Beautiful balcony overlooking Jackson square, perfect for an afternoon drink. The upstairs seance lounges are incredible 😍 I hope to be back for an intimate dinner ASAP
Candice RiveraOctober 28, 2015
Everything is amazing, I particularly remember goat cheese pastry puff rolls. I also went because I heard it was haunted, which was intriguing, the decor is great!
Michelle SFebruary 21, 2018
Super cute inside and the food was incredible! Shrimp Creole was so good! Service was equally as good!
Colan MSeptember 14, 2013
Leave while you still can.Bread was delicious (but its bread).Martini and Bloody Mary were ok.Cobb Salad and Eggs Benedict where terrible.Staff was very friendly and attentive.Beautiful old building.

The pumpkin soup was really good. I have the double cut pork chop as an entree and it was amazing!
Vincent ChesneyFebruary 19, 2023
Jazz brunch after Mass at the neighboring Cathedral with a quick tour of the seance room upstairs.
Robynne RoysterNovember 30, 2011
I loved the pork chop, LOVED the gumbo, and nearly hit someone else's momma because the bread pudding was so good. Seriously, in one visit to NOLA, I ate here twice, eating the exact same thing!
Rachelle KingSeptember 15, 2013
Make sure to ask for the gluten-free menu (also one available for brunch). The Duck & Chaurice Hash is highly recommended!
DenetteJuly 28, 2015
Fancy place to brunch or lunch! Nice view of the square! If it's not too hot they have an upstairs balcony you can sip a cocktail.
ᴡ DuplatAugust 18, 2017
Smiling service. Dress code : excellent idea. Typical cajun food. Sweet potatoes soup and bayoubaisse are very tasty. Winelist with much diversity.
Brett R.May 27, 2019
Superb service. The panko-crusted salmon was delicious. Best shrimp and grits I've ever had. Creme brulee was good. Skip the cocktails though.
Tricia LeeJanuary 3, 2014
Seafood bouillabaisse goat cheese and shrimp crepes with bread pudding - all must try. Great modern twists on southern favorites and not too heavy
Jeanne Marie HoffmanNovember 29, 2013
The bread pudding is fantastic! Make sure to check out the ghost before you leave. Seafood is excellent. People dress from casual to fancy.
Atalanta PendragonNovember 28, 2020
Pretty much everything we tried was good, even the dessert (flourless chocolate cake!). Definitely going back when we're in New Orleans again.
ElizabethSeptember 28, 2016
The gulf shrimp pasta (shrimp, rotini, shallot, creminis and fresh spinach in a Parmesan cream sauce) will change your life.
Cameron DupuyJanuary 15, 2019
Great New Orleans restaurant. Crab cake and oysters were terrific. Seafood gumbo is one of my favorites in the city!
ChadMarch 28, 2012
Red fish melts in your mouth. Sweet potatoes and asparagus amazing. Service is the best in new Orleans. Very friendly extremely efficient. Flourless cake is beyond reproach
Rich CriderFebruary 22, 2023
Outstanding service, delicious food - especially the shrimp and grits. Jason and Joey took great care of our group!
Cyndie CarlsonMay 17, 2023
The New Zealand Savion Blanc is good. Gumbo is Seafood based, much different than a gumbo with Andouille Sausage.
Lori LFebruary 28, 2012
The goat cheese and crawfish crepes were too die for. The food is not overpriced and very tasty. It is a must hit place for great food! I am not easily impressed.
Seung Ku LeeFebruary 1, 2015
Shirimp and goat cheese crepe wa good. Also, classic new orleans brunch was fantastic!

Grab a cocktail at the bar & make your way upstairs! Check out the rooms and enjoy your cocktail on the veranda.
 Ed BerrevoetsAugust 18, 2018
His was excellent. Great food, professional staff in a beautiful restaurant.
Buffy DuffyFebruary 24, 2018
Bloody Mary's were tasty! Shrimp po boy was ok, pork chop was wonderful and the beef tenderloin burger was wonderful!!

Have a drink in the Seance room. Word has it there have been several adult films have been made there. If only those red walls could talk! You will not have the pleasure of making your own, sadly. Read more
Svetlana ShapovaliantsJuly 28, 2014
Be curious and humble with staff. Staff is very attentive and amicable. Choice of cocktail and snails were mistake - they did not put it on the bill! Finish your dinner at balcony
Meghan BurekOctober 26, 2015
Gorgeous building with so much history. Had an awesome time for jazz brunch!
Meredith CarpenterNovember 28, 2015

The blackened fish was a little bit dry, the crepes with goat cheese really good
Amanda BroadwellApril 25, 2014
MUST DO...Ask to go up to the seance room!! Food, get the alligator appetizer!
Jesse BagelsMarch 14, 2017
Delicious meal, but the waiters take their time here
Stephen PerkinsNovember 21, 2012
The crab and corn bisque soup is definitely worth a try. Also, make sure to get the bread pudding!
Mr. TeddyJuly 7, 2016
