Atchafalaya Restaurant

Very friendly staff that were eager to help. Our talble was ready on time and the food was excellent. Well done

This was our first visit and will not be our last. Charming restaurant and the food was absolutely delicious. Just a perfect evening! Thank you.

Coffee was not good. Cocktails were OK. Service was pretty good. Food was pretty good.

Always great food. Love the Bloody Mary bar.

Excellent brunch! I echo other reviewers that rave about the fried green tomatoes- they were fantastic! Chicken and biscuits portion was huge - chicken was so crunchy and crispy. Shrimp and grits was delicious. Make your own Bloody Mary bar was well stocked- but only complaint is it’s a little crowded in the bar area while you are mixing up your drink. Comfortable setting and excellent service- Josh was friendly and knowledgeable

Food was very good and so was the service.

The restaurant was running behind on reservations, but the manger was very apologetic and bought our party a round of drinks. Food was great!! The service was great, as well!

We had a reservation but still waited over an hour to be seated, and were treated quite poorly by the front of house staff during this time. I have always loved coming to Atchafalaya when I'm in town, but if this is how the restaurant is to treat its customers, I may have to find another place in the future.

The food was delicious and the service was absolutely wonderful! Adorable little spot in the Garden District. A must-try for anyone visiting New Orleans!

We had a wonderful meal here, which includes hostess greeting, cocktails, entrees, and service. The restaurant was busy but service never lagged. Our waiter was great, offering suggestions but never pushing. He also carried one of those crumb sweepers so our table was always crumb-free. Just one of those niceties you don’t see many places.

The food was great. There was a band playing so it wasn’t quiet (which wasn’t an issue for us).

Took a while to get seated but well worth the wait. Chicken and biscuits were fantastic. Nice to have live music on weekends.

Outstanding experience. Every course, every bite and every sip was well beyond our expectations.

The waiter took way too long to bring our second bottle of wine. We had to ask him four times, and it came well after the main course.

Excelente servicio y comida

OMG the best. Wish we were in town longer for more meals there. Great combinations of fresh ingredients and flavors. Service was over the top with wait and follow up service. We will return for diner and brunch.

Cute, cozy brunch and dinner place in a residential area with friendly and attentive service. A bit cramped and loud. Nice menu selections. Food was good not great - we found it surprisingly under-seasoned. I had to ask for hot sauce and add extra salt and pepper to both the appetizer (fried green tomatoes with remoulade) and main course (eggs Benedict with crab cake). This is very unusual, in my experience, for a NOLA restaurant.

The Atchafalaya Restaurant met all our expectations. We had a party of 10 from Baton Rouge to Fairhope, Alabama in for the game and the hostess and servers were great. The Bloody Mary bar was a good way to get started and the appetizers and entrees were great. We will be back.

the Service was fantastic and the food was outstanding.

As always, I had a stellar evening. A special thank you to our server, Trever. He was a pro. Every part of the meal delicious and on point, the red fish in particular. This is of no surprise, I've always had an exceptional experience here after 25 years of patronage.

Jerome, thank you so much for making the evening so special. My Niece really loved it and thinks I am a rock star. But in truth, you and your staff (FOH and BOH) are the rock stars. I am certain under your management Atchafalya will continue its exception legacy.

Looking forward to seeing you again in May.

Best regards,
Matthew Morgan

Have been here numerous times. The food and service are fantastic. The schnitzel is the bomb.

Delicious food and drinks. Sitting outside on the sidewalk on a beautiful day - it was a perfect brunch.

This place never disappoints. Whenever i come to NOLA I come here for a meal. The bloody Marys are great. The star of the show this time was the fried green tomatoes and the bread pudding. Also make a point of getting the milk punch.

My son proposed to his girlfriend about an hour before our reservation. We had no idea!! The staff went above and beyond to turn our simple reservation into something very special! The food was amazingly and the best Bloody Mary bar!!

Amazing food, fast service, good atmosphere

One of the best meals Ive ever eaten.

Delicious, eclectic, New Orleans cuisine in a homey setting. Professional, friendly staff. Go for the live music during Sunday brunch!

All three of us enjoyed our dinners, especially the crabmeat appetizer. The service was very good and IT WAS NOT TOO NOISY.

The food was absolutely incredible.

Creative food in a cozy and laid back atmosphere. The fried chicken was amazing. Would highly recommend for brunch.

The atmosphere was eclectic, and the restaurant breathed elegance at the same time. Our food was perfectly balanced between nuanced flavors and classic preparations. We were delighted with every course, but we were particularly happy with the cauliflower steak on special the evening we dined, the wagyu ribeye paired with a delicious variety of perfectly cooked mushrooms, and the blue cheese flan. I will sing Atchafalaya's praises to all who will listen.

Excellent food in an unpretentious environment. I love the vibe, service and food selection. One of the best places I ever eaten I'm the world. Everything by everyone at my table was enjoyed immensely. Here's some of our picks - Loiusanne, Fried Green Tomatoes, Gumbo, Chicken & Biscuits, Bloody Mary, Greens, Tuna, Flan, Bread Pudding

Great food and ambiance. Delicious menu all around and the service is phenomenal.

Good selection of food and great service. I had fish of the day. Delicious and well prepared.

Great food and they make SOME gluten free modifications...

Wonderful atmosphere and delicious food.

Randy was a great waiter. David very nice as well. Great choice to celebrate our anniversary!!!

Outstanding delicious food with great service and wonderful ambiance.

First Louisiana meal and was awesome! Definitely worth a visit

a super fun spot for a sunday brunch. Was loud because of the jazz combo - but we knew what we were getting into before we got there. The Oyster Stew was sooooooooo good. Would be happy with just a bucket of that - but the fried green tomatoes were also amazing. The guys both got the duck hash and were delighted. And the Cajun Benedict was just genius - nothing like I'd ever had before and now something I'm going to make at home every chance I get.
