Great food, service and vibes! We loved everything....very low key and great break from the craziness on Bourbon Street. We especially enjoyed sitting in the lounge after dinner listening to the live band. We will come here again next time we are in town!

Great experience at Foundation Room. The music was a little loud to hear every one at our table but other than that, the food and service was excellent. Would recommend!

Great live music and a really cool place. The service was fantastic. The charcuterie board was so-so and $25, so not good value. Excellent drinks. Will definitely return.

The food is very good and the service was excellent. Notable items were the beef tartare and the mac & cheese. The pork chop was a bit dry, and there was not a lot of variety on the charcuterie appetizer. The crème brûlée was amazing. The ambience is probably the best part, given the musical musical environment.

Such an amazing first dinner in Nola. The food and service was amazing. The ambiance made it feel so special, it was an elevated Blues room vibe and everyone was amazing. Alex at the front was an incredible first impression of the restaurant and Miss Rachel went above and beyond to ensure our experience was unforgettable. You have to try the table side smoked beef tartare. A must visit.

over all great ambiance, good service. only disappointing factors were food portions much smaller than anticipated based off photos, seated in front of wine fridge behind a pilar and had to move often for bartenders to get bottles. my husband ordered white wine and was given a 2 ounce pour.

Loved hearing live blues singers while having dinner. The steak was to die for. Going with my daugther it was perfect to be able to enjoy a chow while dining
