    Our visit to Dickie Brennan was just okay. The service and drinks were amazing. The food was subpar. Everything that came to the table was lukewarm. Nothing seemed as though it was just cooked. Our streaks were cooked at the wrong temperature, and the potatoes au gratin were hard. I wanted to enjoy it but was left with unmatched expectations.

    First time we dined at Arnaud’s Jazz Bistro and it was definitely one of the best dining experiences I had in a long time. This is southern hospitality at its best. Starting with the host and everybody that stop by the table to make sure we were having a great experience. Food was phenomenal, baked oysters the best we have had, the soufflé potatoes blew me away something so simple but yet so delicious. The Amandine which was Crisply fried Trout almond Topped with sliced almonds and Lemon Butter Sauce just amazing. Again everything was perfect from the staff, the food the music. We were celebrating my birthday and anniversary and they made sure to get the jazz group to sing for us and as a gift a mini baked Alaska which was a great touch to end our dinner. Will be back for sure!

    We celebrated a birthday at Irene’s and had the best experience. From the moment we walked in the door to the moment we left, everything was outstanding. Restaurant staff were kind and accommodating, the food and service were above and beyond…. We haven’t stopped thinking about Irene’s all day today (the next day). We had the meatballs, escargot and ravioli as appetizers, and I highly recommend all three. For our mains, we ordered the fettuccini and amandine dishes, and I also highly recommend both. Looking forward to our next visit to Irene’s.

    We were looking for a delicious French restaurant with a nice wine selection and Justine exceeded our expectations! Angelo our waiter was so wonderful and made some great suggestions. Jasmine who was the server in training was so sweet & attentive. The hostess Taylor was also very sweet. The food was amazing as well. I had the Justine burger and my husband had the shrimp and grits. We ate every last bite and enjoyed the entire experience. We highly recommend Justines and will definitely come back next time we're in NOLA!!
