Love this food, service and atmosphere!
One of our best restaurants
A fantastic meal! The ambiance, food, server all 1st rate
We love Irene’s,
The staff was the most friendly and accommodating I have ever experienced. You have to try their lamb chops, omg mouth watering.
The food was delicious as always, we were sat on the patio which was beautiful, the only problem was it was in the 40’s that night and the heaters did little to help. The worst part was the hot food was ice cold before you had a chance to eat it.
This place is magical. My wife and I went for a date night and it did not disappoint.
The ambiance was perfect and the service was was excellent. Stephanie was our waitress and she made our night with her professional service and recommendations.
I highly recommend Irenes’s if you are looking for a fine dining experience with top notch food and excellent service. We definitely will be back and I can’t wait.
Triple threat: great food, service, & ambiance!
It was so great. We celebrated our anniversary with our three kids. The waiters and staff made us all feel welcome and comfortable. The food was excellent, as usual.
The service is remarkable. Everyone was so attentive & personable. It’s a beautiful atmosphere with outstanding people. ALL of the food was soooo good. I will definitely be back again.
We had a wonderful experience... it was a beautiful day... with heaters, we were able to sit outside in the beautiful courtyard . Our service was fabulous and the food was fantastic!
I loved being escorted to my table and the waiter was fantastic.
This was an overall amazing time. My fiance and I are in town for business and we throughly enjoyed our experience at Irene's. The staff was so inviting and friendly, the food was amazing (make sure to save room for the bread pudding!), and the ambiance felt like old New Orleans in the best way. We will definitely be back.
What a wonderful place to just enjoy food and great service. With the restaurant back down to 25 0/0 capacity they made you feel as if things were normal They were practicing all safety protocols and as I looked around the diners were enjoying all the restaurant had to offer. This will remain one of my top choices and go to spot when I am in New Orleans Great menu, outstanding food and top notch service.
Always a very enjoyable experience. The food was excellent and the staff very attentive.
Wonderful, as always!
Great food, service, and ambiance. You won’t be disappointed!!!
Love the experience!!
The food was outstanding and David's service was impeccable! Authentic Italian food in the French Quarter... can't beat it!
Good food. Service was excellent. Would recommend.
Not to many people there on a Wednesday night during Covid but we had a great evening. Our server was friendly and very attentive, but not overly. The food was outstanding.
Excellent service by Michael! Delicious food! Delightful and elegant atmosphere.
We will dine here again.
Always wonderful
Demetrius took excellent care of us. Explained specials, recommendations. Just a pleasure dining there. Also very reasonable price wise.
It is the best in NOLA! Service and food were impeccable!
Noise level from music was a bit too loud. Do not recommend the eggplant and crab bisque. The lasagna, filet , and oysters trio were excellent. Surprised with cheesecake for birthday celebration.
Dined at Irene's for new years and I'm happy that I did. The service was great as was the food.
Wonderful service and delicious meal. We were seated in the courtyard. We will definitely return.
As usual Irene‘s never disappoints! Meatball appetizer is superb. The black drum almandine was divine. Impeccable service!
Bringing in the New Year 2021. Great food and great ambiance!!!
This is my all-time favorite French Quarter restaurant. We go to New Orleans frequently and every time I HAVE to go to Irene's at least once. I try to make it on a Thursday when they have Osso Bucco, my favorite. Any day is good to go, however. The regular menu items are outstanding and the Chef's specials are always flavorful.
Still a staple in New Orleans. My wife and I enjoyed it....again!
Excellent!
FANTASTIC as always. I must admit I like the fact old location better. More intiment in my opinion but that is my personal opinion. Food and service were the same, FABULOUS!!!
Irene’s is a must each time I come to NOLA. It is delicious, beautiful and never disappoints.
Best cuisine and service in New Orleans. A must.
I am a local and this is my fav restaurant in the city! Service is a 10, atmosphere is classy yet they welcome a fun crowd and the price for the value of the exceptional food quality is spot on. Never disappoints!
