- Nickie TeeJune 25, 2012One of the best restaurants in New Orleans, hands down! The staff is awesome. The food is creative, delicious, and there are still healthy options. Wine list is impressive, too. Easy walk from hotels.
- Sean SafahiApril 23, 2015One of the top 5 dining experiences of my life. I was blown away by the service, ambiance, food quality, and cohesiveness of the menu. I hope that everyone can have the experience that I did.
- Bob BrierMarch 10, 2013Get the root vegetable starter dish - easy to overlook but so darn delicious. And yes do get at least one starter meat item at least for their homemade condiments - trust me on that one
- Suzanne BeckerMay 26, 2013WOW WOW WOW. Spot on from decor to elevated yet approachable food. The service si out of this world. Our servers Rye and Carlos felt like family by dessert. Loved the charcuterie board, best ever.
- Emilie DishonghJanuary 2, 2014Fantastic pickles on the giant charcuterie plate (think local chanterelles). The tendon was surprisingly good, and the heart bresaola and rillettes were great. Nice wine list too.
- IdoitforthebaconSeptember 10, 2014You can not go wrong here... Not your typical NOLA fare, but worth the change in scenery. Crispy Pig Ear and Charred Brussel Sprout salad is a winner hands down!
- Caroline ThomasMay 11, 2013I ordered two desserts because I just couldn't decide, and they were both amazing!. Don't miss the mint chocolate with house-made cocoa puffs and the Indian-inspired fruit/floral desserts.
- Morganna MayAugust 22, 2012Face bacon! Yum! I also chose four courses that had a subtle hint of chocolate in each, which is probably my favorite thing to have in food. Wonderful knowledgable staff as well!
- Darryll GillardNovember 21, 2011We tried 2 apps, the yard bird and two signature desserts (CMP and Coca Puffs). It was all delicious. You'll want to come back to try everything else once you've been there once!
