    The people were real. Just nice and informative. The food was so much better than we expected. The strange combinations of flavors worked like crazy. Small tapas portions mostly, that allowed you to just keep eating. Don’t you hate it when you fill up on bread and can’t keep eating? No worries. My fav was the flat bread. When it first came out all hot and amazing, dang. But even as it cooled off when food usually gets boring, it continued to taste amazing. And they had cotton candy with sparklers. Are you kidding me??? It was so fantastic.

    Reserved a table for my siblings and spouses for our yearly holiday meal together. We were a group of six. Arrived early to have some drinks in the lounge. Happy hour drinks and small plates were ordered. Service was on point and food and drinks were all delicious. Table was ready right on time. We started with two bottles of wine with help from our server. His suggestions were spot on as the wine was some of the best wines we have had previously. The food was all incredible including the octopus, meatballs, squid ink pasta, and lamb shank. Service was on point throughout the night. One nice feature we thought was unusual was the specials were communicated by the server and he stated the price of each. A nice thing to avoid sticker shock when the check arrives. All restaurants should do follow suit. Great night and will return soon.

    What a wonderful experience! My sister in law says she always visits Red Fish so we had to go. Our server was fantastic. The food was amazing (remember to order the bread pudding in advance!) and we will be back.

    Meghan and Murphy provided us with first class service! It was so wonderful being served by a father and daughter team. The food was outstanding! The pecan bread pudding is my new favorite dessert! Just scrumptious!

    Best food I’ve had in years. So well balanced. Started with the oysters and a light salad. Nothing overdone, salad light and refreshing, oysters and house made cocktail sauce perfect. We had the scallops and steak frites. Both perfect. Best of all, the deserts were perfectly sized. Just enough to top off the meal. Both the chocolate torte and carrot cake were great, but the carrot cake with the layers of flavors was so inspired. Light whipped cream on top, spicy carrot cake, salt on a base of more whipped cream, and a satsuma glaze on the bottom. Thank you for a wonderful last night in New Orleans.
