Reviews
"Loved the atmosphere and food was very good. Went for brunch and tried several starter options. Tater tots were crisp and the creme fraiche and caviar (tiny bit) really added to the flavor. Biscuits were absolutely delicious. Deviled egg toast was a little odd for me. Was a soft scramble on toast. I can’t really place why I didn’t love it. Bruleed grapefruit was very interesting. Definitely worth trying if you have never had one (i had not) but once was enough for me. Croque madame. Was really good. Creamy, tasty and the pimento cheese added just a little twist to the original. Recommend for brunch and curious to try for dinner."
"Beautiful restaurant with lots of brick and natural water overlay. A hotel is part of the building. Clean bathrooms, friendly staff. We were seated for our reservations immediately. Wish the table was set with bread, but my colleague, mom and kids loved the bacon butter and salted honey butter biscuits. We each had different meals and all loved each one tremendously. An absolute must visit if ever in New Orleans."
"Basically, if you like creative food with incredibly interesting and complex flavors served in a chill atmosphere with some great art on the walls, eat here. If you don’t like those things, maybe still eat here so you can discover what you’ve been missing. Everything we ate was delicious, but I’ll rave the most about the fried chicken and the snapper collar. The snapper collar was one of the most succulent things I’ve eaten in a very, very long time. I’m probably going to dream about that dish in the future. The wine list was extensive and included a full page of options from women winemakers, which was nice to see. The service was friendly. Overall, a thoroughly enjoyable dining experience."
"Well-executed fine dining with southern accents. Don’t be afraid to try the pig ears (think fries). Their version of fried chicken with grits is outstanding… honey, peanuts and a secret ingredient not listed (mint leaves, don’t you worry). Street ands garage parking. Upscale relaxing ambiance off boutique hotel lobby."
"Everything was perfection. The flavors, the presentation, the allergy awareness. Chef Nina has created a true gem here, and one of my favorite restaurants in the entire country. I cannot recommend this restaurant enough. And make sure to imbibe if possible. The drinks are delicious and pair so well with the food! If you get a chance, ask for Quincy to be your server. She was amazing and did a fantastic job of guiding our experience. Definitely listen to her about her favorites!"
