Food, ambience, location,vibrant, parking....all totally awesome. I was, however, disappointed with the service. We got very little attention and barely saw our waitress. It was almost like we weren't there. Despite that, definitely worth a return visit.4/19/2013 12:00:00 AMThe prices were moderatelyThe prices were moderately high here, although far short of budget busting. More importantly, the quality of the food and service were very much in line with amount charged and there was good value delivered. Everyone in our party of four was well-pleased with their choices.4/13/2013 12:00:00 AMElegant, quiet, and near Canal StWe were so happy to find this wonderful restaurant, not far from the French Quarter in distance, but worlds away in atmosphere and quality.4/12/2013 12:00:00 AMThe food here is awesome--fresh,The food here is awesome--fresh, local, & seasonal!

We have even had a great private party on the 2nd floor!4/12/2013 12:00:00 AMGood for business dinnerVery attentive wait staff. Good food and great place to bring clients and have a good conversation.4/10/2013 12:00:00 AMSuperb!!!!Great dinner. We were almost scared away by low ratings. Then the first floor window showed the restaurant to be not so full. But the main dining room is upstairs. Food and service were excellent. This was a definite keeper4/7/2013 12:00:00 AMOur party of seven had a greatOur party of seven had a great dinner and wonderful service by Gerardo! Highly recommended snapper ran out half way around the table! We will have to come back.4/3/2013 12:00:00 AMTastefully prepared and presentedWe had the red snapper with crab meat - tastefully prepared and presented. Although recent news accounts caution that true red snapper can be hard to find (counterfeits abound), in this restaurant in New Orleans they served the real McCoy. An extensive wine list that featured some wonderful wines at reasonable prices - look beyond the typical Cabs for the bargains. Dining room is conducive to conversation.3/21/2013 12:00:00 AMI had the lobster salad andI had the lobster salad and shrimp risotto.

Great place to celebrate a special occasion.3/16/2013 12:00:00 AMThere were 5 of us in ourThere were 5 of us in our party. Food was very good. Everything was prepared with care and at a high level. We particularly liked the Red Snapper and Beef Tenderloin. Between the five of us we tried nearly all the appetizers and they were excellent. For dessert I thought the Truffle chocolate cake was average but the coconut cake and toffee tart were particularly good. I would definitely recommend this restaurant for fine dining.3/16/2013 12:00:00 AMBest kept secret for locals.Every time I have been here it has been over the top. The waiter was swamped and failed to ask us for cocktails. That was the only shortcoming. The food was imaginative and served piping hot with a nice presentation. The wine list in very eclectic and intriguing. I am not a fan of foie gras. They offered a PBJ foie gras that was incredible. What an odd combo but the best I have ever had. I had the scallops with a house made pasta and they were light and quite delicious. Excellent experience and wonderful wait staff. The waiters I have had were very knowledgable and energetic. I prefer Mauricio he is great. I have had him on two occasions.3/15/2013 12:00:00 AMOutstanding experienceAn outstanding experience on a quiet Monday evening. The menu offers many tempting choices. We picked the shrimp risotto and goat cheese ravioli and were very pleased with both. The dining room is attractive, suitably dark, and quiet. Service was perfect, there when we needed someting, invisable otherwise.1/21/2013 12:00:00 AM
