   We had a terrible experience, drinks took 35 minutes to arrive, food was poor, service was slow and short of staff. We left before the main dishes were served because it was just a bad experience for us.

   Fabulous food, great cocktails, very cute dining room and bar, wonderful service. I would highly recommend. The Fried Chicken and Dumplings appetizer was amazing and you have to get the Chocolate Pot de Creme. Heavenly!

   Appetizer, salad, veal was nice but filet was over cooked. Ordered medium rare and it was more medium well but was still tender. We felt very rushed which was kind of dissapointing. Staff was constantly asking us if they could take our appetizer plate when it still had food on it and we kept saying to just leave it be. Eventually the waifresss took my dates entree plate when he intended finishing what was on it so it was pretty clear that we needed to go or something even though we had a whole bottle of wine to finish. Was just an odd exchange in terms of service.

    Would not recommend this restaurant. Our meal was totally rushed we hadn’t finished our starter when our mains were brought out and then they tried to take our plates before we’d finished our meal the tempo of meal was absolutely awful . Staff were unfriendly and unprofessional. The restaurant had no atmosphere . We were totally disappointed with our evening .I would avoid this restaurant there’s too many better ones to try in New Orleans

    Amazing food quality. Danielle was our server. She was right on point. Had the fried eggplant with bernaise sauce and powdered sugar…sounds odd, but AMAZING! Also has the duck as my entree. Couldn’t have been happier.

    Horrible service. We were half way through the salads before we received the wine we ordered. Then there was a 45 minute delay between salad course and entrees. Diners who arrived after us received their entrees without delay. We raised issue with our waitress and asked to speak with the manager. The manager never bothered to come to our table and at least apologize. Even before the entrees arrived the waitress asked for our dessert order so that she could get that in before the kitchen closed. Food was very good once it arrived.

    Our experience was mixed. We ordered the oysters with Brie and the oysters brochette. Neither were remarkable and the brochette was over cooked and served in a pool of grease. I wasn’t really sure they were actually oysters at first. They were tough and the crust was falling off. Neither dish was seasoned very well. We also ordered the oyster artichoke soup as a starter. It was very lemon forward in flavor but was pleasant. It was served without a spoon. As for entrees, we had gulf fish with mushrooms and potatoes, gulf fish with artichoke and tomato and capers and also the soft shell crab Monica. The Monica was by far the best of the lot and I enjoyed it quite a lot. The fish with artichoke was also good - ok but not remarkable in any way. The other fish dish with mushrooms and potatoes was not good at all and we didn’t eat it. It was over cooked and lacked any seasoning. It did not even look appealing on the plate. The desserts were the highlight - cheesecake and lemon icebox pie. Both were very tasty and we enjoyed both, even thought a chisel and hammer may have assisted in getting through the pie crust. It was very good - just difficult to manage with the spoon we were provided. I am a fairly patient and not particularly demanding diner. We understand there are hits and misses in restaurants but this was mostly a big miss. We did let the wait staff know about the awful fish dish.

    The staff gets kudos for trying but the food was just not good—we started with fried oysters that had no flavor. The Caesar salad was sloppy and way too much dressing. The fish was dry and over cooked. Everything was either over salted (soft shell crabs) or not salted enough. The menu has great options, it was all about the execution.

    We sat upstairs. Terrible waitress. Not rude and not unpleasant but very challenged when it came to getting the food out correctly. The 3 steaks we ordered were all overcooked. We sent one very well done steak that was supposed to be medium rare back. The substitute streak was also overcooked. We have eaten at Annunciation many times but we will not return.

    We sat in the bar area and ordered only dessert and coffee. The service was great and the treats were even better. The bread pudding - WOW! They know what they are doing. The creme brulee - crunchy, toasted sugar and creamy base. Just perfect. The only downside was a slice of banana on the bread pudding plate. It was not ripe and best for decoration. Maybe check the quality of the banana before it's placed on the plate? But regardless, I'd order the bread pudding anytime. I'll be back for dessert again very soon.

    The fried oysters were mostly tempura batter. Eggplant app was good but heavy on the breading as well. Maybe the other appetizers are better. Soft shell crab monica was very good and the pan seared gulf fish was good as well.

    The restaurant is beautiful on the inside. The environment is a little loud. Our service on this particular day was just okay. Our waiter forgot to bring us bread and got our dinner mixed up with another table. The food was good and decently priced. I would love to give it another try for a better experience.

    First time at Annunciation and will return. Food delicious! Sam, our server, was great with recommendations. I chose the beet salad (delicious and refreshing) and the Gulf Fish Capri with crab and shrimp (this night it was Drum) excellent! My friend had the Crab and Avocado salad (delicious!) and the Pork, which was amazing. For dessert creme brûlée and cheesecake. Both wonderful but we couldn’t finish either of them. Too good to pass up but even a few tastes were sufficient and memorable. All in all an outstanding choice for dinner. Make a reservation.

    I finally managed to catch this place on a Monday, & I’m glad I did. Even though I noticed several empty tables, I was only given the option of bar seating when I reserved. Fair enough, I was alone, & I’ve noticed a lot of places are having trouble getting workers. Bartender was very attentive & made a great Old Fashioned. I started with the hash browned Brussels sprouts—get them, you won’t be sorry. They had kind of a nutty taste (cooked in pecan oil, maybe?), with a bite that seemed like chilies or red pepper. Very good. Seafood gumbo as just how I like it, rich & dark, kind of thick, with plenty of seafood. It is similar to that of Luke, which is one of my absolute favorites. Finally had Veal Annunciation, which is paneed veal served over a bed of fettuccine Alfredo. Wonderful. There were several seafood entrees that caught my eye, but I’m a sucker for veal, especially when it’s sitting on top of pasta like that. Prices seemed reasonable for the quality of the food. Looks like a fun place as far as maybe getting a table next time. I’ll certainly be back.

    Everything we ordered was wonderful, the only thing I wasn’t (impressed) enough with to order if we went again was the fried green tomatoes. However, the chicken & dumplings, lamb, drum, pork, and duck were all fantastic (with the pork being the table favorite). Only gave 4 stars because we did order a gumbo we never got, but we weren’t charged and were probably too full to eat it anyways.
