   We’ve eaten here twice in the last month. The first time was wonderful. The second time was awful. On balance we won’t be coming back. We were so pleased at our first visit that we immediately booked a second visit to celebrate my wife’s birthday with our adult kids. The second time we were seated in an awful back room with no light. We sat there for fifteen minutes and were not offered water or drinks. Finally the hostess who had seated us wandered back into our back room and was surprised to see us sitting there with nothing; she offered us water. When our server finally arrived to take our order she was in a nasty mood. She was surly the entire evening … when we saw her, which was seldom. Then she bullied my wife into ordering more food than she wanted (she had ordered two appetizers and three sides and we were sharing a main. Since we’d eaten there a few weeks ago she knew this was plenty of food for her. Ended up with another main neither of us wanted). We were never given the opportunity to order a second drink which we did want. The food was ok but pretty limited. But the real problem was having a dark room no windows no visible servers and a surly server when she did (rarely) appear. In short everything that was so perfect in our first visit was absolutely horrible on our second visit. It put such a downer on our evening none of us could enjoy our gift exchange and cake at home.

   Excellent food and service, imaginative and great. Only downside is it 's quite loud. But terrific in every other way. The chicken liver waffle appetizer was insanely good.

   I’m a fan of Southern food and have been to NOLA. I don’t think it’s my problem that I didn’t like any of the dishes. I booked Burdell after reading about it in the SF Chronicle and Food & Wine.

   My party of six was excited to go and have an experience, it was not the experience we were hoping for. Our waiter didn’t take control in the beginning, we had a to ask twice about the “family dinner” and he seemed scattered and more inretested in what was music playing for him to sing along too! Appetizers were delicious but 4 shrimp and one small piece of bread cut up into 4 sections for $24!! Best appetizers of the three we ordered was the mushrooms. Dinner came and 3 of us had the cod. It could have used more salt, good but nothing special. 2 had the Lamb chop which was good but only one and small. The pea stew was delicious as well but more like child’s portion, very small. The sides we ordered were the cornbread and the Hoppin John rice and beans and both were excellent, problem was we got the cornbread and one rice dish and were told the other one was on the way. It came after we finished our meal!!! They were very busy and it seemed as though they needed or were missing staff. Not quite sure how Food and Wine got this so wrong!!!!

   It's always a disappointment when the appetizers are the best thing on the menu. This was our experience. The mains were mediocre at best, after a dazzling start. The space is small, very noisy, and seems understaffed, with servers working very hard. Perhaps our expectations were too high, but I would not go again.

   Great ambiance and dining space. Food was really good - Loved the crispy mushrooms and spring onions with maple dipping sauce, lamb with fava beans and greens was amazing and the cornbread with honey butter and side of greens were out of this world. Cocktails were a little pricey, as they didn't seem to have alcohol in them but also weren't labeled as 'mocktails' so we were a little confused. Really appreciated that the waiter told us we may be over ordering when we kept adding to our order. He was in fact correct! We left with our stomachs full and overall, had a great experience - would definitely go again!

   Just a spectacular experience all the way around. Starting with walking in the door. Great music, ambience, decor, smiling staff. Small but excellent wine list, inventive mixed drinks, with and without alcohol. We couldn’t decide, so ordered WAY too much, wanting to try many dishes. Every one was amazing. I don’t even like cornbread, it was great. Literally the best roasted chicken I’ve ever had. How does one even MAKE cod taste so buttery delicious? I cannot recommend highly enough. A special place. Go. Just go. You won’t regret it.

   Went for Brunch and enjoyed the fried chicken and waffle , Shrimp and grits and hash browns. The fried chicken and waffle was one of the best I’ve had as the chicken was moist and the waffle was hearty. The shrimp and grits had a more delicate touch as the grits were light with a sublime sauce. The hash browns were also very good. My only disappointment were the beignets I had for dessert. They were square pillows that were good the first bite and then it got a bit hard once they cooled down. I also wasn’t a huge fan of the coffee sauce. All in all, a good first experience. I’d like to come back and try the dinner offerings. Eating at Burdells was like going to a relative’s house back in the 50’s, and the decor and dishes and coffee cups reflected that vibe.

    Every dish was familiar and yet elevated. Pairings hit all the right notes. We found the tasting menu and pairing to be a good value and want to go back to explore the other dishes. Front of house professionals were knowledgeable and fun. Great food and vibe.
