   Dinner was excellent. We had a variety of the menu including some starters. I liked the crab cakes. The Chicken Etouffee was fantastic with just enough heat. We enjoyed some of the signature cocktails also.

   The service, food, drinks, and overall vibe we IMMACULATE. Our reservations were at 5:30 on a Friday. Scott was our server, he had amazing recommendations and clearly knew about every item on the menu through and through. The cocktails were $12 but WELL worth the price, the Ruby Slipper was so tasty and my fingers tingling after 1! All 4 meals my table had were so wonderfully and carefully crafted. Dessert (beignets and the limited nightly special) tied everything together. 1000/10 would recommend and will be dining there again soon!

   I just returned from a week in New Orleans where we had delicious Creole and Cajun cuisine every day. Even after that, Laveau’s did not disappoint. I had their special (chix and andouille sausage jambalaya over cheesy grits with jumbo shrimp on top) with a Sazerac, and I was a happy girl! Will return!

   We just had one of the best meals in Cincinnati!! The Shrimp royale and gumbo are the best. And the cocktails are very creative and tasty. The wait staff was very attentive, anticipating the needs of our table. Thank you for talking with us and an amazing meal Chef Patrick!!

   From start to finish, Scotty made us welcomed and appreciated. We met Jason and Jake too, and they were great. The restaurant was busy for a Tuesday with a few large tables. We had the shrimp royale (11/10) and the short rib split, sub grits for mashed. Absolutely outstanding and a great recommendation. Prices are a bit high on some menu items in my opinion but portions make up for it. Would like to see classic cocktails on the menu as well, as we were unsure if we could only order "NOLA" style drinks or not. We certainly could and did order a few classics, as a hand grenade on a Tuesday isn't everyone's vibe. Martinis probably aren't either but here we are. Cincinnati Distilling spirits stack up just fine next to the big brands, and I think there should be more offers to showcase these great products. Absolutely gorgeous restaurant, fantastic food, one of the best server experiences of all time, and the manager (Jason) stopped over several times to check in. Keep climbing Laveau, see you soon.

    Amazing food, the server was a bit too attentive. Made it difficult to remember where we were in conversation.
