Domenica translates to “Sunday,” in Italian, it is the day of the week to explore and cook leisurely, abundant meals. At Domenica restaurant, our chefs seek to transport guests to those coveted moments, offering passionately prepared dishes that marry pure, local ingredients with revered techniques.

While the menu is rooted in tradition, our chefs focus on elevating Italian ingredients and classic flavors to create modern classics, adapted for the contemporary palate of New Orleans. The fresh pastas made by hand daily, roasted vegetables, meats and Napolitano style pizzas, all prepared in the restaurant’s iconic wood oven, are perfectly complemented by custom-brewed beers, seasonal craft cocktails and an Italian-focused wine list.

We are open at 10:00am for Saints home games at noon, we look forward to serving you before the game!

    We enjoyed the roasted cauliflower with feta cheese, chefs selection charcuterie, margarita pizza and a variety of craft cocktails between the 4 of us. A window seat afforded us ample opportunity to people watch. Domenicas is walking distance from our condo so anytime we are in town- this is a must go to!

    The Arancini was off the chain, the pizza was absolutely delightful, my husband’s pasta dish was amazing.  They recommended the lasagna, which apparently was voted number one by Food Network.  Unfortunately, it was not our favorite.  I would love to give them a five star rating except for the fact that our server made it a point to let us know that in the eight years he had been there, NO ONE had ever complained about the lasagna. Oh well… c’est la vie.! The ambience is lovely and vibrant and we truly enjoyed our evening.

    We weren’t sure what to expect here as it’s in the Roosevelt Hotel, not always sure about hotel restaurants, but were pleasantly surprised! Very quick service and very attentive manager and wait staff. Food was good. Had the Carbonara and it was more like a Cacio e Pepe, VERY peppery. Not the typical Carbonara. Pasta itself was fantastic and fresh, sauce was the downer for me. Had the chocolate layered desert and it was DELISH! I would definitely go back as it was nice to be close to the heart of the French Quarter but not in the middle of the crowd! Definitely a fun vibe but happily more subdued than the middle of the French Quarter!

    We ordered a pizza that came to the table cold, with prosciutto that was put on after it came out of the oven. Management did comp us for the pizza but we still paid for 1 glass of Sangria and a tea that totaled $20 before tip.

    We had an excellent experience at Domenica! We were in town from Pensacola and the manager Maggie, who is also from Pensacola went out of her way to stop to talk to us at our table. Maggie and our server were extremely friendly and we enjoyed our time as well as the food which was excellent!

    Amazing ambiance. Great service. Great food. The ribeye was slightly over cooked and portion small considering the price. Not a good value. Everything else we had - appetizer, salad, lasagna entrees, dessert were great and well priced.

Also thank you to the very kind hostesses for accommodating adding two to our party. And then accommodating us for running late due to traffic. They were warm, welcoming and friendly.

    Fennel seeds/ flavour in a lot of the menu items. You either like it or not. If not your choices are quite limited for a menu that is small already. Spaghetti Carbonara was salty. Meatballs the fennel flavour is quite overwhelming Pizza was nice and thin, not enough tomato sauce. Prosciutto slices were cut too big and there was too much arugula. Service was good but overall not recommended.

    Had a birthday celebration here for my son and was admittedly a bit disappointed with the food. The lasagna didn’t have much flavor just a cheesy taste. Pizza was just average. Meatballs were a bit disgusting. The highlights were the cauliflower and the dessert.

    Truffle campanelle very good as was rigatoni arranbiata. Their old half portions are now being served as a full size serving. I’m a small eater so this works for me. You’re just paying more for a smaller portion. Above average wine selection. Desserts affogato and gelato stracciatella always a welcome way to end the meal along with a strong cup of coffee. My only suggestion with the service is please do not clear the plate as soon as we take our last forkful! It’s like they want to turn the table. Bad manners. We left extra tip because we did camp out for awhile before having to go to Frankie Valli at the Saenger. Always a good meal! Will be back again!

    Dominica continues to put out fresh and unique dishes that are scrumptious to my palate. All the cheeses on the menu are perfectly yum (especially the pecorino w/truffle),make sure you get the tagelle bread lil toasts with it! Special of the day was a clean, herb, lemon baked Mediterranean Sea bass..comes whole w/fresh herbs on the plate with the head on, now that’s presentation!
