    Overall terrible service for what you’re paying for. Sat down, waited 15 minutes to even order a drink. When our drinks were out, waited another 10-15 minutes for a server to come back. Waiter messed up the order. Ordered a dozen oysters, we got 6. Ordered Bernaise sauce on the side with the entree, never got it. After ordering the entrees, never saw the main server until I had to ask for the check. Would recommend going somewhere else.

    We celebrated our 50th anniversary at Arnaud’s. We were treated like royalty by all of the staff. The Jazz trio topped off the evening by playing a song from our wedding at our table and encouraged us to dance. It was a magical experience. The food was great and came at a leisurely pace so as to give us time to enjoy every minute. We went there 50 years ago when we were honeymooning in NOL A. The ambience is still the same- classy and spectacular

    If I could give more stars I would! Everything was amazing, and the reservation staff went above and beyond to help make my special dinner an outstanding success. I highly recommend the Chefs tasting menu to anyone looking for a fabulous meal.
