Meronique Kirsten HammlerJanuary 31, 2019Red beans and sandwiches are Delicious and a Great atmosphere!!
CJMay 5, 2012Yup, go to the Chartres House Cafe instead! Lovely people, tasty food and decent prices! Will definitely return here!!
Megan K 🦮🐾☘️🧉June 29, 2018Service was slow. Felt dismissed as a solo diner. Otoh interesting interior decor and the muffuletta was tasty (and large!).
Gabriel HayesSeptember 22, 2015My favorite place to grab an afternoon cocktail in the French Quarter.
Kathryn DMarch 10, 2015Stick to the NOLA classics: jambalaya and muffuletta with a Pimms Cup, to stay safe on menu.
Tony MDecember 14, 2014Loved the Muffalata sandwich here. The courtyard has some serious heaters in the winter.
Daniel EizansMarch 22, 2010Good God. Try the Muffaletta. It's the most amazing Italian Sandwich I've ever had. The stuff I dream about when I want to be eating. It's that good.
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.
Christopher LongOctober 25, 2014The Pimms Cup was the highlight of this restaurant, though the seafood gumbo was solid.
Mike WinstonApril 26, 2015I spy roaches. Strange music selection too, but the Pimm's Cup and Sazerac are damn good.
Amanda ThauMay 1, 2012I dream about the Pimms Cup and muffuletta sandwich! Sit in the courtyard and enjoy!
They sell more Pimm's Cups than anyone in the US. Get one. Then get one more. Then get one in a to-go.
Adam James RealtySeptember 14, 2015This is where they invented the Pimm's Cup. An absolute must have!
Lewis WallaceOctober 2, 2011Get a Sazerac or a Pimm's cup and enjoy it in the beautiful, shaded courtyard on a sunny day.
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.
Jason LasherAugust 17, 2011The muffeletta, poboys, pimps cup and spinach and artichoke dip are all awesome! Jordan is a fantastic waiter!
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
Rachel BOctober 20, 2012They are known for their Pimm's Cup. But try their Pimm's Ginger Julep. Tasty!

Kat CorlissMay 5, 2010Outstanding muffaletta, the olive salad is homemade and amazing. Def recommend the bruschetta as well -- good large appetizer.
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!
rhea sunshineNovember 9, 2010Pimms on the patio of course! But the food is delicious too, po' boy with a portion of jambalaya = perfect!
