Tujague's - New Orleans

great food and atmosphere!

Gotta get the grasshopper drinks, they are awesome.

First time I visited Tujagues was 24 years ago. I
Just went back February 2020 and was elated that the food was still outstanding! Even something as simple as a sweet potato is elevated in its flavor- Hopefully I won’t wait another 20+ years !!

Good food and atmosphere. Wait service very prompt despite being busy.

They need to return to excellence. No there at the moment....

While the restaurant is nice and service was great , I got sick immediately upon getting back to my hotel which was only 5 blocks away.

Valentine’s Day

Tujaque's did not disappoint. Service was fast and the food excellent. We loved the crawfish gnocchi and the creme brulee. I'd love to come back and try other menu items I didn't get this time.

We were there on a Monday evening about 7:30 and the only people there was a party of 6-8. After a while a few more couples showed up. The service was fine, the waitress gave us plenty of time to look over the menu. The wine list was simple but varied. Unfortunately, I ordered their “famous” boiled brisket. All the flavor had been boiled out of it and was also very dry. Until and unless I try them again I cannot recommend you visit.

Tonight we planned a lovely enjoyable dinner with friends, but were unfortunately disappointed. The food was OK a best and my the two steak dishes came out cold and undercooked. Directly beside us was group of convention attendees and they were extremely loud. It was a huge damper on our first experience here. As a small location there was no escaping the groups tenacious conversations and speeches. My recommendations is for the restaurant to install some noise absorbing panels. Overall for the prices we will absolutely choose another spot that will be more accommodating to our quaint expectations.

The crawfish Gnocchi was fantastic and the duck entree was phenomenal. Neal our server was knowledgeable and attentive. Thanks for a great meal.

Food was amazing. I had the brisket and my husband had the tuna.. absolutely delicious. Had the bread pudding. Yum. Drinks were great as well! Very nice atmosphere. Lighting was perfect.

Always good.

Lovely old school place doing spot on renditions of classics

Neat old place, if the walls could talk! Remoulade was fantastic, brisket delicious. Can’t go wrong!!

They went out of their way to make a specific mixed beverage for me. All of our meals and appetizers were great, too.

Outstanding dinner ! We got the five course dinner and split it. I don’t have a big appetite so it was the perfect amount!! Randy, our server, made the evening even better!!

Terrible. Terrible.

I had guests from San Francisco and I wanted to show them a great time.

Service was bad. We were seated and never saw anyone for about 10 min. A table of 4 came in after us and already had drinks and appetizers and we were just sitting there. I had to ask a waiter if they were our waiter to get a drink. Then we rarely saw anyone again after that except for this slow moving gal every once in awhile. After we were done eating, and she knew we were done we had to wait around another 30 to see her again and ask for our check. Everyone else was getting nice service and history lessons on the restaurant- which we wanted and why we booked here. The food was great but not sure if I will go again

Good food and friendly in a historic location. Great people watching!

Our experience at Tujague's was excellent! Our server, Robert ,was superb, his knowledge of wines was outstanding.

Waiter seemed uninterested in serving us. Didn't listen when we asked questions, didn't explain options, just didn't seem to care. Food was good, but there's lots of good food in New Orleans.

Our experience at Tugague's far exceeded our expectations. The food was amazing and the service was terrific.

Neat place to eat for its historic value. Service was great. All of our entree meat dishes were overcooked. Brisket, pork chop, and fish. Probably a good thing they are moving to a more modern space with a new kitchen.

If you are looking for a excellent quality restaurant for authentic NOLA meal this is your place.

Tujaques is a classic New Orleans eatery. Great service, amazing food, hand crafted cocktails. Our waiter provided wonderful stories and history of the city.

A bit quiet in the dining room for a Friday evening

Excellent sized proportions of perfectly prepared food. Light on sauces, these folks know what they are doing, unlike many other restaurants in the area nearby. Wish they had raw oysters ...

The entire experience was great!!

Loud and fun exactly as it should be.

We went for New Years Eve special dinner and were really underwhelmed. Service was perfunctory, limited menu, food inconsistent. The appetizers and bisque were excellent, but the main courses and deserts largely went uneaten.

What amazes me is that the set menu was so limited. Two desert choices? Really.

After so many great meals in New Orleans at more casual places, we expected much better.

Our waiter Randy was outstanding and added a lot of joy and value to our dinner

As always, Tujague’s was a delight. The warmth and professionalism of the staff and the super food and wine choices have made it one of our most favored places, especially for special occasions. Besides the quality of the food, wine, and service, the old New Orleans ambience is a joy to natives like us.

Grasshopper was excellent, everything else just average. Waiter not so nice.

The manager was extremely accommodating. Took our large party in for lunch and sat us at tables within close proximity. However, when our table of 5 went to pay for our checks and wrote down what we each had/which cards to specifically charge for which items, he said to me, “Well this doesn’t help at all.” Very unprofessional.

Amazing food!

I have been told by many that this place is a staple in NOLA & should not be missed. The grilled oysters though fresh fell a little flat with only a cheese topping as opposed to garlic and herbs often noted in the mix at other establishments. The gulf fish amandine was well cooked and moist, and the accompanying sauce was flavorful. The size of the entree is probably the correct amount an individual should eat but appears to be on the smaller size. The duck and goat cheese crepe was tasty and unique. Our server was subpar in not bringing the items as ordered or the correct number of items. This may have been due to the noise level, but being in customer service myself, if I’m not certain on what I’ve heard, I would repeat back what I thought that I had heard. I do not think that it’s professional to push an item on the customer that was not requested though. An appropriate response would be to take the item back if an error had been made the server. This first time experience here was tainted by the poor service. It’s not okay to bring an ordered drink after the whole meal has already finished.

My Family and I enjoyed a delicious meal here while visiting NOLA for the 2020 Sugar Bowl. The charbroiled oysters and the BBQ Shrimp and Grits were our favorites. My 13 year old that doesn’t enjoy shrimp, devoured every bite. Loved the historic vibe as well.

BBQ Shrimp and grits were fantastic - try the tequila Negroni

The soup was cold and the meat was not cooked enough. We had to send back two plates. Didn’t think very highly of the restaurant.
