Best Restaurants for Birthdays in French Quarter

I had the pleasure of dining at Bourbon House recently, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. From the moment I walked in, the ambiance set the tone for a delightful evening. The highlight, however, was undoubtedly the food prepared by Chef Jerrod, which was nothing short of spectacular. We started with an appetizer that was a perfect balance of flavors and textures, showcasing Chef Jarett’s incredible ability to elevate even the simplest ingredients. For the main course, I opted for the steak, cooked to perfection — tender, juicy, and beautifully seasoned. The side dishes were equally impressive, each one thoughtfully prepared and complementing the main dish wonderfully. Gavin, our server, was attentive and knowledgeable, offering great recommendations on both food and drink pairings. He had a great sense of timing and made sure we felt well taken care of without being intrusive. His service added an extra layer of warmth to the already welcoming atmosphere. Overall, Bourbon House offers an exceptional dining experience — the food, drinks, service, and desserts are all top-notch. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for an outstanding meal with a warm, inviting atmosphere.

Everyone was friendly and warm! More delicious food than we could eat! If you have a chance to celebrate a birthday here, just know that you will have a blast! Couldn’t have ended our stay on a brighter note than this charming, delightful restaurant! (And try the Bananas Foster, even if you don’t especially like bananas, the sauce even just on the vanilla ice cream, the story, it’s worth it even if you end up feeding most of the banana to your dining companion. ^_^) Six star service!

We visited the original location 15 years ago and were warmly greeted and had one of the best intimate dining experiences at the hidden gem. It was a MUST visit for this trip. We were pleasantly surprised Irene’s has expanded and the service has maintained the experience! If in New Orleans this is one of the greatest dining experiences all around. Thank you Irene and your team!

Justine is one of our favorite New Orleans restaurants. We love the atmosphere and decor. The service is always amazing and Jazz was no exception. She was warm, friendly and always attentive. She even remembered my wife from a previous visit and offered us a complimentary champagne flute. The entire meal from the appetizers to dessert was delicious. I can’t say enough kind words about Justine.

Fantastic! Server was excellent and they were able to take our large party with ease!
