    We were seated upstairs. Nice relaxed atmosphere. Our waiter came to the table very quickly. We made special requests on both our drink and food orders and both were accommodated with no problem. The drinks were really good, our Caesar salads were great, and our entrees were also delicious. Lamb Shank and paneed veal. Vanilla creme brulee dessert also delicious. Our waiter was very attentive and helpful throughout, and we were not rushed to leave. Overall a really nice experience. And parking on the street was readily available.

    Wine came out after my entree was done. The Sorbet was Gelato not Sorbet, with a dairy intolerance, this is a big deal for me.

    We went to Annunciation with no expectations. It was by far one of the most enjoyable dining experiences we have had in a long while. It was a busy night, but the staff never missed a beat. As good as our food was, the dessert was even better. I look forward to going back soon.

    Really good service (shout out to our server, Sam (and great host at the door, too). Lots of helpful teamwork throughout. Food was quite good; thoughtful, but not overly so. Not a lot of ingredients, so all the flavors came through beautifully. Mixed drinks were professional, crisp-tasting and happily served (and consumed).

    Annunciation was a great restaurant with a good vibe. We went on Saturday before Mother's Day. Service was great and the food was great. Me and my wife had the Veal and first time having Veal it had amazing flavor. For the first time in a long time I had dessert after dinner and the Pecan Pie was amazing!

    We had a terrible experience here. I brought my girlfriend here for date night and we were severely underwhelmed. Once seated, we waited over 30 minutes for anyone to stop by and take our drink order (restaurant was less than 50% full). Cocktails came out as a super watered-down drink and was about 70% ice. Entrees took another 45 - hour to come out and the food was inedible. I got the veal, and it tasted like I was eating an entire bag of flour alongside a table spoons worth of noodles. My girlfriend got the drum which was overcooked and dry. Our waiter never came to check back in with us since our drink order, so we were unable to send the food back. We just decided to pay and leave because of the terrible time we had. Overall super disappointed because this used to be one of my favorite places in the city, but definitely won't be coming back.

All were excellent and we all cleaned our plates. Deserts were equally delicious. Service was quick and attentive. All around a great evening

    The food is top notch but due to booking large groups in the dining room, the noise level is ear piercing! Because of that, we gobbled down our incredible food in under 45 minutes to escape. The duck was supreme.

    We were in town for the Jazz Fest and took our family of six out to celebrate a birthday. We ordered seven appetizers and four entrees for the table to share family style. Our server gave great recommendations and had a fun personality that we really appreciated. Every dish was top shelf, but some particular favorites were the fried green tomatoes, the oysters annunciation, the drum with addition of lump crabmeat on top (excellent brown butter sauce with crispy potatoes and silky mushrooms), the roasted duck, and the bread pudding. They have a great wine list too, and the service was outstanding. One of my sons works for a Michelin star chef and he very impressed with our every aspect of our meal..

    Worst cocktails ever—not stirred down properly, bartender too busy chatting to customers at the bar to make them properly. We gave up drinking because we didn’t trust them to make anything else. Food was underwhelming and badly cooked, raw lamb chops and cold grilled oysters just left too long at the hatch. And the gulf fish was ok but at $34+ to come with zero accompaniment is bad value. Poor server was so overstretched, he seemed to be the only one working. Overall really disappointing for a place I’d been wanting to visit for some time.

    Our server Patrick was outstanding and knowledgeable. He was the best part of our experience- and that is saying a lot after we all went crazy over one of the special appetizers. Beautiful room upstairs and we were so pleased all around. It was a bit loud as there were a few larger (10+) parties but the service was seamless and even with all those starting to eat at the same time we were never rushed and timing was perfect. It’s worth the trip and that is saying a lot in a town with a lot of restaurants that are wonderful. This one is one of them!

    Had dinner with several work colleagues at Annunciation last night. Service was excellent. We were seated on the 2nd floor which was quiet - perfect for dinner conversations. We had several appetizers - fried green tomatoes and boudin balls which were very good. I had the gumbo which was good as well. I had the roasted duck with raspberry sauce and it was OK but not great. Skin was rubbery, not enough raspberry sauce etc. My colleagues has shrimp etoufee and a crab dish. They liked their entrees. Would definitely visit again!
