About this restaurant

Neighborhood gem
Good for special occasions
Charming

Founded in 1913, this family-run, Italian-Creole restaurant is located in uptown New Orleans. It is famous for creating barbecued shrimp.

This neighborhood restaurant is vintage New Orleans, from the service to the decor. The oyster bar is always manned by a friendly shucker. The oysters are fresh, salty, and delicious.

The old time oyster bar and cocktail bar offers raw oysters on the half shell and all types of cocktails. We offer fine seafood, Italian specialties, and delicious steaks.

In 2023, Dickie Brennan & Co. welcomed Pascal's Manale into their restaurant family.

Although I’ve been there many times, I brought three guests that had never been and they thoroughly enjoyed it. It was nice to have a great meal before going to hear Andrea Bocelli at the Smoothie King Center. Our waitress Billie did a fantastic job.
Pascal's ManaleResponded 2 days ago
Big cudos to you Fr. David. I feel I remember you and your friends. What a nice review and I'll make sure to share with the team. I hope you all enjoyed Bocelli as I'm a huge fan as well. He has the voice of an angel. Amazing. Please drop in next time you're in the neighborhood sir. Thank you for your patronage and the 5 STAR review!!! Wahoo!

I got the bbq shrimp and the only problem was they were overcooked. I would definitely not order the bread pudding again. All else was good. The key lime pie was killer. Our pasta dishes were great. The manhattan was perfectly made.
Pascal's ManaleResponded 2 days ago
Hey Paul, truly appreciate the feedback sir! Wish we could have rectified that "a la minute". I feel we missed the mark on a few items and with that said, your honest review gives me great insight to areas we can improve. I'm going to reply in private so I can see about getting you back in here to refire that bbq shrimp on us! Thanks for taking time to jot down your notes in this review. Take care, Lee (AGM)

Reservation for 2 o'clock, arrived five minutes late. Seated immediately, water and butter were placed at our table within two minutes. There seemed to be enough wait staff, but no menus were placed at our table, and to a large degree, we were ignored for nearly thirty minutes. We left without service. There are no plans to return. I rate the customer service a Zero
Pascal's ManaleResponded on June 4, 2025
Hey Andre, I replied via private message if you'd be so kind to provide more details. Open Table shows no reservation under your name on 5/31/25 (Saturday, 2pm) so there's no way for me to track. Please know that we'd like to make this right and it's truly not our style. We value and appreciate you and ALL of our guests. Sincerely, Lee (AGM)

A bit on the noisy side. But great food for the $$. And great service. We went on Wednesday Wine Night-a selection of bottles for 50% off.
Pascal's ManaleResponded on May 30, 2025
RICK! Much appreciated sir and yes it gets a bit noisy on occasion but looks like we checked all the other boxes and for us, that's a win. Truly appreciate you taking the time to rate us and hope you come by again and enjoy some wine. Cheers, Lee (AGM)

Great food, vibe and menu offerings. Really enjoyed our waiter, Dante. Definitely a great restaurant with rich NOLA history.

YAY for Dante! He's a super great guy and truly cares for his guests. We'll make sure to share cudos with him as we do whenever we have a server mentioned by name. Chad, we really appreciate the kind words. Drop by anytime sir. Sincerely, Lee (AGM)

Our food was delicious and our server, Donna was a delight! The restaurant hasn’t really changed with the new owners …nor has the menu… I would like to see a few new additions on the regular menu that doesn’t involve pasta. The chocolate mousse for dessert was a STAR!
Pascal's ManaleResponded on May 27, 2025
Such nice words and sooo appreciated! We are, in fact, going through changes toward the end of this summer so stay tuned. I enjoy the mousse as well. We'll keep that one. LOL Thanks for the shout out to Donna and I'll make sure to relay the sentiment. We appreciate you Bobbie! Take care and stay tuned! Sincerely, Lee (AGM)

This is a great dinning experience in New Orleans. Classic and traditional. Definitely take the time to shoot some oysters at the bar with your tokens you get from the bartender.
Pascal's ManaleResponded on May 28, 2025
Cesar, oysters have been very, very good this year thus far. Plump and juicy!! We truly appreciate the nice words and I hope you come back by for a visit next time you're in the neighborhood. Cheers, Lee (AGM)
