We had a great time! The food was delicious, and James's service was on point.

Food and service were excellent. My husband and I both had the Summer pasta. It had shrimp, peas, orecchiette pasta with light champagne cream sauce. It was delicious. Wine service was great.

I had the Coolinary three course prix-fix dinner. The shrimp and avocado salad and coq-u-vin were delicious. The desert was tasty but small and disappointing. Ambiance in an old house is lovely. Our server Vanessa was excellent.

My wife and I were so looking forward to our brunch here, but were extremely disappointed. We started wtih the truffle crab claws, which had a lot of chards of shells clinging to the crab meat. We also had the gnocchi, which the gnocchi were very good but they were swimming in an oily fluid that didnt seem like butter. I had the shrimp and grits, and many of the shrimp were not cleaned of shells and legs, a LOT of grease from the sausage was poured on the grits, and some of the garlic chips were extremely over cooked, black and bitter. My wife had the gulf fish almondine, and although the fish was good, her plate was also swimming in a greasy/oily fluid that was not butter, and frankly rather off putting. The bread we got on the table was excellent, as was the service, but frankly all of the food was terrible.

"A Symphony of Flavors in the French Quarter" Step into Tableau, and you're not just dining - you're embarking on a culinary jazz improvisation. This French Quarter gem hits all the right notes, from appetizers to mains, with the finesse of a seasoned blues musician. Let's start with the baked goat cheese, shall we? Paired with confit tomatoes and multigrain toast points, it's the culinary equivalent of a warm New Orleans welcome - creamy, comforting, and impossible to resist. You'll be tempted to lick the plate clean, but remember, you're in public. Next up, the red bean hummus. Now, I know what you're thinking - "Red beans in hummus? That's as out of place as a tuba in a string quartet!" But trust me, this dish tickles your taste buds in all the right ways. Served with cool cucumber slices, it's a refreshing twist that'll make you question everything you thought you knew about hummus. The truffle crab claws? Oh honey, they're the Louis Armstrong of the menu - bold, unforgettable, and quintessentially New Orleans. Louisiana blue crab takes center stage, backed by a truffle vinaigrette that'll have you snapping your fingers (and your claw crackers) in delight. But the real showstopper? The duck and andouille gumbo. This dish doesn't just sing - it belts out a soulful ballad that'll make you want to get up and dance. It's so flavorful, you might catch yourself trying to scoop up the last drop with your baguette when no one's looking. Our waiter, Jordan, deserves a standing ovation. Attentive, helpful, and probably moonlighting as a mind reader – he anticipated our needs before we even knew we had them. In the end, dining at Tableau is like attending a jazz fest for your taste buds. Each bite is a new riff, a fresh melody in an ever-evolving composition of Creole cuisine. So go ahead, let your palate improvise - at Tableau, every meal is a standing ovation.

Food was very good , service is always excellent.

This was a table of 8 locals, half were teenagers. We all had excellent meals, cocktails and appetizers. The food was perfect. We had 2 birthdays and our server brought us 2 birthday desserts. This was a perfect meal.

I went for lunch. Service was great, balcony view was great, food was good. HH was nice as well. Lunch overlapped with HH.

Definitely not a fave! The service was impeccable, but the food was not flavorful and required the use of much salt and pepper (which I hate to do)! For starters, we had the chilled crab claws… flavorless… needed garlic, lemon, spices, etc. We also had the crab dip. That was a little better, although the consistency was “different.” The best of the starters was the fried oyster bake(?). It was more flavorful than the others, but still not worth the spend in my opinion. In terms of entrees, I had the chicken dish (one fried; one roasted). The portion was large and the flavor was above avg. Others in my party had a bacon burger (she advised that it was very good… and well worth the cost)… and a bowl of gumbo (he advised that it was “pretty good” and fairly priced). In terms of the cocktails, they were OK… nothing to write home about… tiny glasses, small pours and big prices). All-in-all, not a place I’d return to (one party said he wouldn’t choose it, but he also wouldn’t avoid it if someone else did). Lastly, the final member felt like the burger, although tasty, was not enough to inspire a return trip. There are way better places to eat in NOLA!

The food was incredible. The chef was accommodating to needs of some in our party and deliciously so. Jordan was outstanding. Attentive, personable, outstanding server. An all around delightful evening!

Had a hankering for dessert. We came and demolished their "Pie".

Gotta say, lived here since this place has opened but ever since Covid it’s never been the same. Food is more expensive and for New Orleans not on par with other restaurants like it used to be. Used to love coming for brunch. It was just the two couples in there. I only ordered a cheeseburger. Came out cold. Sent it back and it absolutely took forever to come back out. WAY over done and I’ve felt sick ever since. I think it’s time to not come back anymore.

The bartender Taylor was amazing! Great vibes and great atmosphere. She’s made the best espresso martini i’ve had in a long time.

The food is amazing. The blue crab appetizer to die for. My chicken was fantastic. However, like so many restaurants and ambience is ruined with lighting wayyyy too bright in main dining room. New LED light bulbs have ruined ambience in so many places… work that out and we will be back!

Alex was our serve, he was amazing and defymad eme and my wife on her birthday like it was all just for her and me

We booked last minute. Wonderful service and cuisine!

My husband and I were Very disappointed with the Boullabaisse. It didn’t have much flavor. The seafood was cooked perfectly though. Service was great! Ambiance is great! Our friends enjoyed the summer seafood pasta, the duck soup and a crab fondue appetizer, which were all delicious!

Had a great meal and great service from our waiter James.

Great french onion soup, great Denver steak, great burger, great fresh oysters fried oysters, okay strawberry salad, watery, not too great turtle souop. Great service and great atmosphere. Will go again, have a better idea of what to order.

We enjoyed a delicious brunch at a balcony table with an amazing view of Jackson Square. The service was very attentive and the atmosphere was really relaxed. While everything we ordered was very tasty, the Brown Butter Gnocchi starter was fantastic, as well as the Tarte a la Bouillie dessert. All of the dishes were prepared with care. I would definitely revisit Tableau our next time in New Orleans.

Paella night was a hit. Fantastic Sangria cocktail. Some history of the Spanish occupation and delicious food.

My girlfriend and I were at Tableau for a special event, Paella Night. It was a wonderful event, put together by the staff and chefs of Tableau. Delicious food, wine, cocktails, and overall a wonderful experience. If you get a chance to go to one of Tableau’s new summer experiences, definitely put it on the calendar!

I enjoyed my experience and the food. This was my second time visiting and I will be back.

The food and vibes were awesome but what made it even more special was our server Alex. He was excellent. My Dad said he was the best waiter he ever had.

We were visiting the French Quarter and this was one of the best places to visit. The service, atmosphere, food… EVERYTHING was absolutely perfect and delicious. The balconies have a spectacular view of Jackson Square, but it is still beautiful inside. 100% recommended !

We went to Tableu for our anniversary dinner as recommended by our Grey Line tour guide. Our server was exceptional and made sure we were well taken care of during our visit. The French onion soup was to die for! The steak my husband added to his meal did not taste right, but our waitress tool care to remove it from the ticket and let the chef know it was a bad steak. Everything else was delicious. Best creme Brule I've ever had.

We enjoy taking our friends here when they visit the city. But we were quite embarrassed on this occasion. The Eggs Tableau was cold, through and through. The meat of the hamburger was not fresh. The mayo on the side had yellowed on top because had sat out too long. I hope that more attention to your usual detail will return.

Sad meal, GREAT SERVICE. Wish the food was better.

Redfish almondine was specially good. The creme brulee' was the best.

Excellent service makes this place stand out. Food was better than touristy restaurants. A lot of locals eat here, which is a good sign.

My sister and I both ordered the soft shell crab pasta. While the pasta itself was good the crab was cooked incorrectly and the extra chicken my sister ordered was over cooked and tough. Our waitress and the African American hostess were fantastic however and they were very pleasant and made the experience a little better. The ambiance is great but there was another hostess that was not as friendly or accommodating and left a bitter taste. I think the ambiance and location are great but the cooks also looked as if they didn’t want to be there either so my review is very mixed for this restaurant.

Ashleigh was an amazing waitress! She brought so much energy and joy to our whole experience. Without a doubt the best service we have had in years. Food was amazing as well. Can’t wait to come back again soon.

I ordered Waygu steak (Denver Cut). Little did I know that Denver Cut means shoe leather grade. Yes, I was able to return my steak for a Luke warm overcooked Drum fish. My wife ordered seafood pasta that was noticeably short of seafood. Why serve such food? I felt absolutely ripped off.

I have been to Tableau many many times. I have an addiction for the salad with grilled shrimp Yesterday it was not busy. Girlfriend lunch. Plenty of staff standing around and not on top of customers. She got the order wrong. We had to flag her down for everything. They were all with in view but not paying attention. I will go back. I love the spot.

Attentive staff though it was short staffed due to a wedding. Managers were trying their best Excellent flavor profiles on the pan seared oysters with brie and sweetbreads with beets. I am coming back just for those! Crab claws were good but wished they were hot Duck breast was good though too rare for my taste even if it should be that way. Nice reduction and beet greens Short but good wine by the glass list Thank you

Food was very bland. Had to replace original entrees. The waitress, manager and staff were very nice and friendly.

An amazing classy place to eat. The staff gave all of the extra personality and service you would expect but don't always receive from a higher end establishment. Ask Mya nicely and she will hook you up with the best Arnold Palmer known to man.... seriously it was so good the next day I was eating at a different restaurant and snuck over just to get another glass of her special mix.

Grabbed a reservation ahead of a quick day trip to The Big Easy. We were promptly seated and enjoyed a quick round of drinks to cool off from the New Orleans heat in July. The interior and ambiance was classy, clean and new looking, as opposed to most of the nicer establishments in N.O. Our server was terrific. She explained the specials, answered questions about menu items and kept our table at the top of her list all evening. The food was better than expected. We had the blue crab fondue, turtle soup, duck/andouille gumbo, creole seafood pasta and shrimp/crab and grits. Each course was better than the next. For dessert we shared a creme brûlée and another custard dish I can’t remember the name of but they were also delicious. tableau also offers some interesting specialty drinks and an extensive wine list. Highly recommended!

Beautiful restaurant, very well organized and the staff super helpful and professional, we went for the Brunch and my plate was not good the California wagyu beef steak on the menu was horribly prepared low quality, was very disappointing brunch

The service and ambiance is beautiful and professional Our food was not good at all , seafood pasta was very saggy, there was only one seafood Crab And my California steak 🥩 was a disaster.. very much a waste of money.

Everything I was hoping for. The Fried Oyster Pan Roast exceeded my expectations!

Just okay food was good but not spectacular great service

Our Son requested that we celebrate his birthday at Tableau. Our table was in the very corner at Charters & St. Peter, looking out on the square; perfect, or so we thought when seated. We started with a round of cocktails, and when the Old Fashioned was placed in front of our Son, he immediately handed it back to the waitress. It arrived with a dead fly garnish, which was not requested. The waitress apologized and went back to the bar for a replacement. When she returned she delivered another "Old Flyshoined" and it wasn't the same drink, this fly was even bigger! (If alone, at point I am leaving) I would expect that a waitress at ANY restaurant, but especially a fine dining establishment, would inspect the second drink. Common Sense or Training: If one had been sent back already for a fly, hair, lipstick smudge etc., please inspect before bringing second to the table. At this point, he decided to forgo a cocktail. Felt would be safer with the wine. For appetizers, we had two orders of gnocchi and mussels, and our table was bombarded with flies, having an aerial dogfight trying to get to our appetizers. Our guest were swinging arms and napkins like at an outdoor seafood boil, and soon a gentleman came over to assist. He opened doors on both sides of our table, chased most of our unwelcomed guest outside as they landed, or flew close to the glass doors. He told us that,. . ." for some reason flies like to hang out in this corner of the restaurant ." I can't begin to explain how disappointed we were. If it would have been a normal get together, I would have asked for a check and left, never to return. The Food & Wine During the rest of the meal, until darkness, we still had aerial visitors. . .but nothing like the 1st course. Restaurant had a good wine selection; prices comparable to other fine dining establishments in the French Quarter. The mussels were very tasty, but overcooked; gnocchi was heavy & doughy, with lots of pecan pieces. There was a lamb special, and three lamb lovers ordered the special. It was so salty that it was sent back. Need i say more? There was an order of Tableau Chicken, not much was consumed. The Waygu Steak was described as, "overcooked & cold". One guest stated, . . ."was expecting a higher quality dish, it was, meh." Dessert By the time we arrived at Dessert, darkness was falling outside, so our aerial visitors were off to visit brighter areas of the restaurant. The Cream brulle was delicious, but what made it so tasty was the way it was served. It was served on a flat dish, so with every spoon the crunchy caramelized top was pronounced & present. The Rasberry sorbet was described as "delicious, homemade & best I've ever had." We have never been so disappointed at any restaurant in our life, let alone a New Orleans fine dining establishment. As a New Orleans native, I expected the food to be of a much higher quality. I do not expect to be fighting flies off my appetizers, or; have cocktails delivered with, "unrequested garnishes"As far as I am concerned, flies and fine dining don't coexist in my universe.

I would have liked to have gotten more lump crab meat in the seafood pasta. I did feel like the pasta absorbed any potential fluid the dish had. That was okay. Our server was Ashley J she was absolutely awesome and did everything she should do. I say this with experience since I have been in the industry for 47 years . We also went to the play during intermission, I wanted a Bloody Mary. The bartender was overwhelmed which I understand everyone went to go get a drink or something. Now the reason why I took away two stars. There was a gentleman who was trying to help her, that was good also but it was obvious he did not know what he was doing in any way shape or form. Your Bloody Mary is pre-mixed he couldn't get the okra or Olive onto the pic, when he finally did he poured the Bloody Mary mix in glass with about an inch from the top and put it on the counter in front of me. No cocktail napkin... I asked if he was through he did not like that question and then I asked him for some ice in my drink. His response was oh I was going to get you ice. He was not, he was through I asked. That upset me I always trained my staff to admit if they made a mistake everyone makes mistakes. You learn every day in this industry. Later I saw him seating people. Maybe he's more equipped to do that but he needs training with that also

Amazing!! Great service and the food was amazing. LOVED the mussels!

Had a delicious brunch. Lovely setting, tasty food, and attentive staff.

Everything was great including the drinks, service. Mussels, strawberry salad appetizers were outstanding! I had the summer seafood pasta and my husband the bouillabaisse. They were good but not great. The chocolate tort! My goodness wow! Not overly sweet. It was amazing. We will be definitely be dining there again. No question.

They overcooked the Wagyu steak 2x. Everything else was good.

First time at Tableau and we will return. Great place for dinner before catching a show at LePitit Theater. Our server (Mya) was great. Food was good.

Wagyu steak was not cooked well. Food was cold. Apps were good.

Lovely restaurant. All the food needed salt. The turtle soup had little flavor. The wagyu was not worth the cost. Location was fabulous. Food was just okay.

Wow! If I ever get the chance I would definitely try this restaurant again. Everything we ordered was amazing. I had the chicken tableau. It typically comes fried, and they modified it for my gluten allergy and the dish was still absolutely delicious.

Amazing food and service. We had a lovely dinner.

We enjoyed our meal for Father's day. As always the food was excellent and the service is the best

Service was excellent. Food was tasty. Only negative was that our entrees came out and were only warm. It took awhile between our appetizer and our entrees. I think the entrees were ready, but stayed on the serving bar for a little while.

The appetizers were delicious but the service wasn’t up to par. It took an hour to receive appetizers and an hour after that to receive entrees. We ordered the Wagyu steak which was inconsistently cooked and too tough to cut or chew.

The blue crab crepes was an amazing appetizer, the red fish and seafood pasta were wonderful, and the torte a la bouille was fantastic.

This was our second time eating here and it just didn’t live up to our previous experience. The food was ok, the server was abrupt inattentive and honestly kind of rude. I’m not saying we won’t be back, but we will definitely be exploring other options for future dinners/ lunch before a show ar Le Petit Theatre.

The patio vibe was fantastic however the table space is very tiny and felt crammed. Service was extremely slow. Food was good but overall we would choose another.

We dined in the front section of the first floor. Very loud while the pre-theater diners were there, but quiet and rather empty once they departed (the theater adjoins the restaurant lobby). Strangely, we couldn’t get a 745 reservation, the the restaurant was 80% empty. Food and drink were very good, but limited menu. Tip: use the restroom before theater intermission or you will find yourself on a long line.

Location was great, we sat at balcony over look at the view of the street and Jackson square. I read the review about food, most reviews recommend Truffled crab claw which I ordered but honestly not a fan of this one even though I do like crab. Shrimp and Grits was okay but Fish entree was deliciously amazing!!!(don’t remember the name) drinks was good too. Overall we have a great time there.

Possibly the worst dining experience I've ever had. To begin, the receptionist/hostess put us in the worst table available (even though there were other empty tables) without so much as asking what we wanted or if we were willing to wait on other options. The gumbo was just ok, the famous onion soup was fine, nothing super special. The pasta in the lamb bolognese was undercooked (not al dente, undercooked) and the Wagyu Denver steak was simply uneatable. More than half of it was pure fat, with barely any meat attached; I could barely cut the steak, let alone eat it, so after a few tries I had to return it. I was very disappointed, since the restaurant had been so well recommended by, well, all of the internet. The only highlight was the excellent service of waiter James, who is very attentive and did his absolute best to acommodate us in every way. But given the rest of the experience, I wouldn't come back to this place.

had the boulliabase and it was a tad salty grilled octopus was great

It's a wonderful restaurant. Food, ambiance and help add up to a wonderful evening out.

Delicious meals and excellent service. Would highly recommend.

Great location. We sat upstairs on the balcony overlooking Jackson Square. The staff were all friendly. The food was mediocre. Although, the creme brulee was the best I have ever had. They spread it out on a plate so it is thin. This makes the majority of it have a crunch. Delicious!

This is one of my favorite restaurants in the city! From food to ambiance it can't be beat. The balcony is such a great place to people watch and take in the sites and sounds of New Orleans.

What beautiful ambience and what a convenient location to cap off a wonderful matinee performance at La Petit Theatre. James, our server, was attentive, his suggestions were perfect, and our food came out amazingly quickly! Will definitely come back to Tableau!!

There are so many wonderful things about Tableau that I liked, such as our waiter Jordan, the balcony, the bars, but I was really here for the food. It sadly was not what I expected from a Brennan's restaurant. We had the shrimp & grits and the Gulf fish almondine. Both lacked flavor, which down here is incredible to say. I had to add salt and ample Tabasco just to be good. Not what we were hoping for. The crab crepe appetizer was delicious as was the toffee dessert. Everything else was wonderful and 5 ⭐.

Service is always excellent. Everyone always welcoming. Be back soon .

Food was meh, expected far better for 100+ for two people with no drinks. Grits were super gluey and chunky, looked like maybe they sat for a while. Front staff was distant and inattentive, waited despite having a reservation. Wait staff ignored the balcony or were spread too thin, the people next to us waited forever for water. Disappointed for the price.

Was lucky enough to score a balcony table the night of my birthday for dinner. First things first...the staff here are extremely friendly and on top of things. My server Taylor was incredible. Had the onion soup which was very good, and the shrimp & grits which was the star of the show. Highly recommend.

Our last evening in New Orleans and after so many wonderful experiences and delicious food we happened upon Tableau and they provided an exquisite grand finale. The food, wine, service, atmosphere and vibe were fantastic. I was visiting from NYC and I look forward to returning to New Orleans and returning to Tableau! Highly recommend!

My family went here for dinner on a Friday night. The room we were seated in was beautiful and the food was good but unfortunately it was hard to enjoy it because of one obnoxious employee. Every time he would bring a tray of food up (the trays were located in front of our table) he would yell to the waitresses “hey your food is here” and continue to badger them until they got the food. Then at one point our waitress was talking to us and as she was speaking, the same food runner was hitting her in the back with a plate and calling her name over and over like a little child. My 5 and 7 year old are better behaved than this guy. This was definitely not the experience we were looking for when we booked this restaurant.

Had a wonderful meal here. The view from the balcony was splendid and the food did not dissapoint. Had the Brown Butter Gnocchi and the Chicken Talbeau.

What an awesome experience. We sat outside, listening to a jazz band near Jackson Park. Thank you Tableau

We thoroughly enjoyed our meal at Tableau. Caleb, our waiter, took very good care of us. He was extremely welcoming, knowledgeable, and personable. We sat outside on the upstairs balcony and found it to be one of the best views of the city we've ever experienced. The food was very high quality. We will be back!!

Great food with a nice view from a balcony table.

No reservation was needed for this Saturday night. The food was delicious and the portion of lamb was great, just like the way they serve wine in glasses. They are definitely not shy about the quantities compared to California.

I love the new brunch menu! So many great options. We had a wonderful anniversary brunch and I can't wait to go back!

Our waiter was horrible! The first words out of his mouth were to complain about his job 😑. After that, his interactions with us were fewer and fewer and usually on the rude side. Our food was good (not superb) but being waited by him really ruined the experience.

Great atmosphere and location. We sat outside on the balcony. Total classic New Orleans. Great service and super cool unique drinks.

Great food, stellar service. Nina, you’re awesome. Thank you for your presence.

Waiter was fantastic!!! He was so sweet and attentive. Enjoyed the redfish and crab crepes. Crème brûlée was great. Highly recommend!!

The food was terrible. Do not order the octopus. The best thing we had was a salad and even that wasn’t that good.

Strong start, underwhelming finish. Service was excellent. Food was not. Foie gras is on the menu, it wasn’t available. Ordered a Waygu steak, poorly cooked, very tough both times. Not the quality you would expect from such an establishment.

Dinner and service were excellent. Highly recommend.

Best place to eat in New Orleans. Food was amazing. Drinks were amazing. Server Alex was fantastic and made the experience amazing. Loved sitting up on the balcony. Everyone still talks about this experience constantly. Definitely recommend

Came with group of four people for dinner, had excellent service the entire time. Extremely obnoxious group of tourists from Los Angeles behaved loudly and as if they were on a reality TV show. The restaurant comped some of our drinks, gave us an awesome spot on the patio and removed the obnoxious customers. I will definitely be back.

The gulf fish almondine was amazing. I also liked the crème brûlée. My husband had the bbq shrimp and grits and thought the shrimp tasted funny. Our server wasn’t very attentive, we waited quite awhile after finishing our entrees waiting to place a dessert order even though it wasn’t very busy. It is a cute place to eat at and a convenient location.

So, the food may be beautifully presented and a symphony for the taste buds, but I can’t tell you, because I never got any. I walked in, talked to the hostess, and she told me it was an hour wait for a party of 2. So, I got on the waitlist and we hung out in Jackson Square until it was time. We got seated, looked at the menu, and discussed the dishes that looked good. Then, the waiter came to our table and proceeded to list off menu items they were out of. It was close to half the entrees. And every dish we were interested in. At that point, we left. Now, I get being out of the special. I get an item. Maybe 2. But this was, like, 5. We waited an hour to find this out. Why did the hostess not mention they had such a limited menu when I first got on the waitlist? I highly doubt they ran out of all that stuff in the hour we were waiting. If I had known, I’d have gotten on the waitlist at Muriel’s. And by the time we found out, a lot of restaurants in the Quarter were about to close and were no longer seating people. I recounted our experience to the desk clerk at our hotel, and she told me she had been told about similar experiences a number of times before. Not going back. Guess I will see if I can find us a slice of pizza or hot dog on Bourbon St. since everything else nearby is closed.

TRADITIONAL RESTAURANT IN THE FRENCH QUARTER This popular restaurant just off Jackson Square boasts a courtyard, main dining room, Drawing Room lounge and apparently the “best balcony for dining and drinking” in town. We sat in the main dining room and shared the Maison salad, fried oyster pan roast, shrimp & grits, ending with a classic crème brûlee. A few things went wrong, but overall it was fine.

Food is not good at all: oysters are not tasty and have smell of mud, kids chicken is like plastic, and the creme brûlée has tons of sugar.

Best food and service we had while in Nola. Fantastic food, drinks and and service.

I miss the jazz brunch. That was a very special thing.

Five stars for Tableau, fabulous food. Five stars for Jewelle, terrific server.

Our server was a young girl and she was amazing. Professional friendly and the appetizers and drinks were best we’ve had in NOLA. The dinner entrees need to be updated.

Worst food experience on our USA trip. (Nashville, Memphis and New Orleans) When we arrived everything was fine staff friendly and order taken, our drinks arrived soon after. My wife's starter was delicious (French Onion Soup) mine I didn't enjoy but that's just a preference I guess (Gnocchi). My wife was barely halfway through the soup when our mains appeared at the serving table at the pass, the waitress asked if we were ready for them which clearly we were not. The food was then put back on the pass, covered and placed under the warming lamps. This then made my wife and I uncomfortable as there was now time pressure to finish the starter as our mains (Fillet Rossini and Denver Steak) were slowly broiling on the pass, about $100 of food cooked medium and medium rare. When my wife finished the soup the waiting staff wanted to serve the food immediately, when we asked for a 5 / 10 minute break we were told our food was ready and would be deteriorating, we informed our waitress that we were aware of that and that we were concerned that the food had now been waiting for over 10 minutes on the pass. We were made to feel extremely awkward as if our request for a small gap was unreasonable. The manager offered to have the food cooked again but it was clear from the reaction of the Waiting Staff and the Chef on the pass that they did not appreciate our concerns. I told the manager that we would pay for our starters and drinks and leave as our last meal of the trip had been spoiled. The manager offered a free desert and the waiting staff offered to make the wine to go. We paid went to the bar finished our wine and left. The staff were not rude it was just the lack of care when managing the food order and the lack of understanding of our concerns that earns a 1 star review. We had many meals in the USA and there were all pretty good, the service was managed to give reasonable times between courses.

This was mine and my boyfriend’s first meal in New Orleans. Our server (I cannot remember his name) was great and served us on the balcony. He was great and recommended drinks and food. We enjoyed the truffled crab claws (his recommendation) and my boyfriend enjoyed shrimp and grits as his meal And I got the bbq shrimp roll. My boyfriend and I are pescatarian and our server was helping in modifying the dish to accommodate our dietary needs. This was a great first meal in New Orleans!!
