    My wife and I are NOLA natives visiting after being gone for ten years. The food at Tableau was great and the atmosphere was beautiful (I’d worked in the building years ago and could barely recognize it by the new floor plan). Even my two kids (7 and 9) enjoyed their meals and the experience. Touring the building after the meal was worth the trip. Thank you to Sabrina and Kayla for the service, and to Ruby who took the time to guide us to the “secret room” where some celebrities have dined. Thank you, also, to Tanya who took our picture on the balcony overlooking Jackson Square. Those personal touches made the night really special. I’m glad we chose this place over the dozens of other offerings in New Orleans.

    In every way this was an outstanding experience. The food is creative and has hints of the local flavors. The ambience is fun, casual, quirky, yet an upscale feel also. We enjoyed every aspect of our brunch. Wish we were here long enough for a dinner reservation. Highly recommend. Service also was excellent. You get real professional service here.

    We have always enjoyed the Pelican Club; it never disappoints. The food was excellent again, and brought out perfectly timed. Our waiter was attentive without being intrusive, and gladly gave suggestions when asked. We sat in the room between the bar and the main dining room, which we loved because it wasn’t too loud. Highly recommend this gem that doesn’t get enough attention, in my opinion.

    We had a wonderful experience. First time dining at Tujsque’s. Lea, Victoria and Latonia (sp) did an awesome job taking care of our table. Loved the vegetarian option, as well as the Turkey and dressing .. only complaint was the way to divide up the bill… two were individual, two were together. Will still give 5. Stars

    Excellent food that celebrates the Creole/Southern culture in a comfortable, elegant environment that's located in the heart of the French Quarter. We were there for Thanksgiving and our entrees did not disappoint. I had the pork chop and my husband had the traditional turkey. Both delicious. Service was top notch, including the manager who came and checked that everything was good with us.
