Miguel GonzalezMarch 25, 2013The Pimms Cup is famous. And the Sazerac is legend. Excellent muffuletta and tasty gumbo.
Parul BatraMarch 22, 2015Stunning stunning decor, historic location, great food. Highly recommended.
Tony MDecember 14, 2014Loved the Muffalata sandwich here. The courtyard has some serious heaters in the winter.
Megan K 🦮🐾☘️🧉June 29, 2018Service was slow. Felt dismissed as a solo diner. Otoh interesting interior decor and the muffuletta was tasty (and large!).
Mike WinstonApril 26, 2015I spy roaches. Strange music selection too, but the Pimm's Cup and Sazerac are damn good.
Christopher LongOctober 25, 2014The Pimms Cup was the highlight of this restaurant, though the seafood gumbo was solid.
Food & WineApril 20, 2011A local institution, this shabbily elegant restaurant and bar with a Spanish-style courtyard is known for its Pimm's Cups and muffuletta sandwiches.
Amanda ThauMay 1, 2012I dream about the Pimms Cup and muffuletta sandwich! Sit in the courtyard and enjoy!
Jason LasherAugust 17, 2011The muffeletta, poboys, pimps cup and spinach and artichoke dip are all awesome! Jordan is a fantastic waiter!
Rachel BOctober 20, 2012They are known for their Pimm's Cup. But try their Pimm's Ginger Julep. Tasty!
Lewis WallaceOctober 2, 2011Get a Sazerac or a Pimm's cup and enjoy it in the beautiful, shaded courtyard on a sunny day.
Rachel HigginsMarch 1, 2013It was alright. Definitely don't go in a big group. They don't do separate checks. You get one refill on soft drinks only if you buy food. Lettuce and tomato is extra on a po boy. It was just alright.
Meronique Kirsten HammlerJanuary 31, 2019Red beans and sandwiches are Delicious and a Great atmosphere!!
They sell more Pimm's Cups than anyone in the US. Get one. Then get one more. Then get one in a to-go.
RuthlessOctober 31, 2010Pimm for 1 is in a collins glass which you can purchase. Primms for 2 is a larger glass that is great for beer. Nice souvenir.
Gabriel HayesSeptember 22, 2015My favorite place to grab an afternoon cocktail in the French Quarter.
Caitlin CashMarch 22, 2011The sevice is so-so, but the food and drink more than make up for it. Don't leave without trying a Pimm's Cup!
Raven CatlinOctober 16, 2013Bad: Canned food - tomatoes veggies and beef broth were carried to the kitchen as we ate. Good: patio, cheese plate, and Pimms- Brent NecessaryMarch 8, 2012Go to the patio and have a pimms cup! Also it's hard to find an outlet if you want to charge your phone.
rhea sunshineNovember 9, 2010Pimms on the patio of course! But the food is delicious too, po' boy with a portion of jambalaya = perfect!
Kat CorlissMay 5, 2010Outstanding muffaletta, the olive salad is homemade and amazing. Def recommend the bruschetta as well -- good large appetizer.
Adam James RealtySeptember 14, 2015This is where they invented the Pimm's Cup. An absolute must have!
Mathieu LanssensJuly 24, 2018Overrated. Beautiful building and nice atmosphere. Friendly staff but don’t expect too much of the food (on plastic platters...).
Drinks are fine, ambiance even better but the food is crap
