About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
  • Good for business meals
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.

    The bar area is the most fun. BBQ Shrimp (specialty of the house!) was a letdown, as was the crab remoulade - not much character or flavor. Stick with the pan roast... it's great.

    Great, old-school Italian restaurant -- a New Orleans classic! The main menu has the old favorites (I had the veal piccata -- it was perfect), and they had some new takes on the specials menu. My wife is gluten and dairy free, and the kitchen was able to accommodate her with a wonderful meal.

    Menu seems dated, food was average. Seems like everything needs an update. Salad was mostly floppy lettuce and some canned artichokes and olives. Gumbo was watery and arrived with no sausage or chicken. Mozzarella app was super salty and the ratio of cheese to breading was too high so it was soft and not pleasing to eat. Veal piccata had two small pieces of veal and sauce was disappointingly bland, and pasta with meatballs was fine but meatballs were dry. Server was very pleasant and dishes came out quickly.
