Herbsaint,

701 St Charles Ave, New Orleans, LA 70130, United States

"Other than the room can get fairly loud on a busy night, Herbsaint is a gem. We love restaurants that have a smaller menu with a few specials. That way everything can be perfected. The reserve wine list is awesome..."

"Classic New Orleans food in a setting with the streetcar line. Quintessential NOLA. We missed some of the fish due to shipments in the middle of the day and had a longer than average wait time, but the food and experience were well worth it."

"I am in New Orleans for the first time, visiting from Nashville. I have eaten at some fabulous restaurants around the country. I don’t leave reviews unless I feel it’s my duty to shout from the rooftops about one that EVERYONE should put at the top of her/his list as a must-do when in the area. Herbsaint is my New Orleans MUST-DO. The night I went, sous chef Lily and the kitchen crew, easily viewed through a large window open to the restaurant, looked like were barely stopping to take a breath as they cranked out one amazing dish after another and stunned me with five small plates of absolute heaven. A true chef goes beyond just getting food on a plate. You can feel the heart they put into building the flavors and beauty of each dish they send out of that kitchen. I felt it. And certainly savored every. Single. Bite."

"Would definitely recommend. Small plates were excellent. Gumbo was probably the best I had in the city and I tried it everywhere. Fried oysters, ceviche, and the short rib were all very good, but the spaghetti was amazing. It is like a cacio e pepe with a fried poached egg on top. Will be back next time I'm in town. P.S. you really need to try that spaghetti!"

"Another gem in NOLA. Managed to get a last minute reservation for an early dinner. Staff is just amazing, except for a mistake in our wine order, they just did brilliantly - knowledgeable and helpful as possible. Food is just top notch - even the gem lettuce salad was memorable. Chicken and wagyu Nanette dishes were probably our highlights - the most moist and tender meat we had. Desserts were spot on two, especially the black Forrest cake. Will definitely come back again."
