Restaurants near House at 161 Bosporous Avenue

From start to finish the entire meal was perfect. Minimal wait to be sat as well as each course was properly timed! Our server was extremely attentive and knowledgeable about the menu when we asked questions! We will definitely be returning!

The server was knowledgeable of the wines and helped us make an excellent choice. The N’awlins style were just ok and at $5 a piece, I would pass. The scallops were excellent. Will try to recreate at home. Would return just for that dish. Scallops cooked perfectly and portion size was good with 5 or 6 scallops. Parking is a pain but all of downtown is. Park at Garrison lot with Park Mobile. Definitely will return. Barbie full of the young and beautiful. Enjoyed the people watching. lol.

Very accommodating when we asked to change tables to a place away from the cool air. Very accommodating when we asked to split an entree. And, they "comped" my friend's dessert when she mentioned she was ordering it memory of her late husband. When she mentioned it, she had no idea that would happen - particularly since it's been almost 4 years. She was just mentioning it in passing.

Our 4 person group started off at the outside bar while waiting for out table. The cocktails were just ok. Nothing outstanding but they also had a good wine selection. The baked oysters were very dry and hard to remove from the shell. Not juicy at all but very dry. The fried green tomatoes and pork belly were a big hit. The dinner selections were tasty. I had the pompano dish and it was great. The native chili was dry as well. It was meaty but also very dry and lacked moisture or sauce. The desserts were good except the whisky butter cake with blackberries came with 1 blackberry and it was cut in half. I wish it had more berries or some blackberry compote to go with it. Overall nice meal with some improvements to be had on some dishes. I would recommend this place especially with the nighttime ambiance.

Service was fantastic. We had the escargot and salmon (special) for appetizers. Coq au Vin and Duck Confit for our mains. Bread pudding for dessert. All were very good! It was a little pricey but nothing crazy.
