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.

Even though we came in when the kitchen was closing, they were still extremely accommodating for my birthday dinner. I loved everything about the food especially the dessert. Calvin, the best server, was amazing. When I come back to visit it'll def be for him along with everything else.
Brussel spouts were excellent. Dinner was very good. Little noisy but that is normal. Overall great time.
The smoked sword fish was unbelievable. Annie our waitress was the best.
Domenica had been highly recommended to us, so perhaps it was an off night. The service was very good. The room is pretty. It was quiet due to the required table spacing during the pandemic. I ordered a glass of sparkling wine which was flat. The waiter was gracious about taking it back and opening a new bottle. The pizza is excellent, as are the salumi, and the cauliflower appetizer. The pasta sauces were very over salted to the pint of overpowering the other flavors. I would consider trying this restaurant again on the chance that this was not a representative night.
Great food and service! Calabrese Pizza and Passione Cocktail were so good!
Our waiter Corey made our experience at Domenicas unbelievable ! We left our whole experience in his hands and it was well worth it! All of his knowledge his recommendations were spot on. The food was fantabulous . I’ve been to Domenicas before. This was the first memorable dining experience ever! It was an unforgettable birthday! Thank you!
The food and service was 10/10. Our server was wonderful and very knowledgeable about the menu and the cauliflower appetizer was amazing.
Wonderful experience! This was my first time to experience Domenica. I highly recommend the place!
Always a pleasure dining here when we visit Nola. Food was great as was the service.
I’ve never felt so honored to be part of the “chef club” as I did tonight at @Domenica! Chef Ada outdid herself with a special tasting menu, along with the service from Derin! Y’all, this food was PHENOMENAL! Everyone was super friendly and service was exceptional! Even though I’m a fraud, I was honored and amazed to be treated like a VIP! We will be customers for life and dine there whenever we need to impress others. Highly recommended!!
Great service and impeccable food. Was looking forward to the traditional Bull & Bear but this was a pleasant suprise
the only other thing I can say about Domenicas besides a 5-star rating for food, service, ambience, and value is that the location inside the Roosevelt hotel is also 5-star. Easy and fast valet parking, charming ground floor of hotel with a gift shop full of NOLA gifts. Also a church right across the street. World famous Canal Street and French Quarter only one block away!
Awesome service and food! Girard took great care of us with recommendations and excellent service. Large portions of exceptional food and a great variety of options on the menu. Would highly recommend!
Wife and I both loved the smoked beet salad. She had the lasagna that we both thought may have been the best we have ever had. They make their own noodles, cure their own meats, and create their own sauces and spicy oil for the table bread. Truly a culinary delight. Oh, and Cory (without an “E”) our waiter, was most excellent! Great experience which we throughly enjoyed!
Delicious!!!! The roasted cauliflower is a must.
So very underwhelming, save for the service.
Outstanding service and recommendations
It was excellent all the way around. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was excellent as was the service.
Our sever was great but the food was not. The portions were extremely small, the pizza crust was burnt on the bottom and not done enough on top. We really wanted to love this place but it was just ok...very disappointed.
Pizza and beer were delicious! Service from Cory was top notch. Excellent experience. Thank you! Will go back!
We had a great time at Domenica last Saturday night. We were celebrating my future daughter in law say "Yes to the Dress". The food was amazing and we loved taking pictures in the Roosevelt. We started the meal with meatball and polenta, and roasted cauliflower. We had a margherita pizza, shrimp risotto, and Bucantini all Amatricia. We finished the meal with King Cake and gelato.
Wonderful!
The food and service at Fomenica was superb. It was a slow time which allowed our waiter to be extra attentive. The food was really good and fresh. The board was very tasty.
Perfect experience. Fabulous pizzas and cauliflower appetizer. Food could not have been any better!
We eat often when in NOLA especially after Mass @ Immaculate Conception. We LOVE meatballs
We decided to walk there Friday night especially for the meatballs. My hubby was pleasantly surprised you had a bourbon he has been looking for. ❣️❣️❣️. We ordered a salad to be split for 2 & 2 orders of the meatballs. Asked for salad to be first - kinda enjoy our visit. The young man delivering the food from kitchen we would say wasn’t having a happy day. He delivered the salad with a hard drop to our table in one bowl & no plates to divide it 😢😢😢😢. My hubby ate the salad & I never got any. Then shortly after he does a hard drop of our meatball plates. Needless to say not our best visit. It upset me more than my hubby but of course he had his favorite 🤩 bourbon 🥃. Our waiter (Gerald) offer us ice cream 🍨 but we weren’t interested. He apologized for what happened as well. We look forward to a more restful, relaxing & enjoyable visit in the future. Thank you
Amazing dinner!
Excellent service, pleasurable atmosphere, and everything we ordered was spectacular. Cauliflower appetizer was out of this world.
Everything here is always great! Great cocktails, food and service. Crispy kale salad is always one of my favorites. Bucanini pasta was great and my dining companion loves the magarita pizza.
Excellent service!
Look, this year and last year, so many restaurants at 25% capacity, including Domenica. We were not sure of how the changes had affected one of our favorite places in NOLA.
But the food was superb. We went before the Saints playoff game, we had missed eating there through out the NFL season because we were only allowed in for 2 home games. So, we were super excited to get to enjoy it. Everything we had was excellent, and the cocktails, banging, as always. This is one of my favorite Besh restaurants. The fried kale was so good, I could have just had that. But we also shared the meatball starter and the red royal shrimp starter. Husband had his usual, margarita pizza. Our waitress was new too us, we had not had her before, but even she was so friendly and knowledgeable. Domenica never disappoints, always delights.
We enjoyed dinner. Everything was delicious.
You can’t go wrong hear with a dealers choice charcuterie board and some pizza. House Pinot Noir is a good one too.
Outstanding food and amazing service! Will return when we are back in New Orleans.
Muy buen ambiente. La mesa estaba lista cuando llegamos. La comida es de muy buena calidad, la atención de los mozos, muy cordiales muy atentos, precio de medio hacia alto si uno come con vino. Pero un lugar recomendable.
A luncheon with my bridesmaids
Terrific!!
We always enjoy our visits to eat there with our family and friends.
Great service, delicious food, good value. Made our NYE lovely!
Enjoyable family dinner celebrating the new year
Domenica always does a great job and almost everyone in my family of six can find something that fits their tastes
Me encantó todo genial
