    We were visiting New Orleans for the weekend and this restaurant was a nice walk from our hotel. We were interested in "southern" cuisine and we were not disappointed. The wine selection was very good and priced reasonably. My husband had the shrimp and grits and I had the crawfish bisque and arugula salad. We also enjoyed the cheese tray as an appetizer (would feed 4!). All of the food was excellent - flavorful, fresh and we enjoyed every bite. Our server was extremely attentive and knowledgeable. We highly recommend Apolline.

    The service was wonderful. The staff was attentive. The food was delicious. We had the fried green tomatoes, pork belly , the pork chop and scallops! All done to perfection. Sadly we had no room for the chocolate cake. The wine selection by the glass was well chosen and paired well with the menu. Overall we had a lovely dinner and experience in a charming and elegant space. We will be back!

    Nice bar. We would have preferred a choice for an “oaked” Chardonnay, had to settle for unoaked. There were only 3 other tables filled - but we waited an hour for our food (once ordered) - and speculated that the chef had to fish for the food him/herself. It was however very good. We selected this restaurant based on a description in “38 Essential restaurants on Magazine Street.” Not sure this one is essential given the long wait but the food and ambience were very nice. Would recommend with the above caveats.

    The bread and 3 of the 4 entrees were notably salty. It is a busy time around Mardi Gras and maybe they just had a rough day. It took an hour and a half after we ordered entrees until they arrived at the table. The duck appeared to have only 2 small duck slices about an inch long each. The wine and fried green tomatoes were good. Pork belly serving size was about 2 bites. Decor was appealing. Maybe on a different night it would have been a better experience.

    Food and service was outstanding. The kitchen was a bit slow in getting the food out but we really didn’t mind as it was an enjoyable atmosphere. Haley took excellent care of us. The goat cheese tart was fantastic. My wife got the scallops and I had the chop. Both were great. Topped it all off with the bread pudding. I have had A LOT of bread pudding and this was right up at the top. Great restaurant.

    Fun place. We made a meal out of the different appetizers and salads, no main course so can’t comment there. But everything was very well done. Pork belly and the lamb ragu both excellent. Goat cheese tart yum-ask for extra strawberry sauce. Just a nice dinner.

    Another delight on Magazine Street. Set in an old double shotgun, it it nicely decorated. The service was top notch and the food delicious. The alligator jambalaya dumplings were amazing. Prices were reasonable. This is another spot to add to your places to eat.

    Unfortunate evening. Kitchen must have lost our ticket. Waited over an hour to be served. No one even came over to acknowledge or apologize for the terrible service. We had to bring it to their attention. Food was excellent but spoiled due to the terrible service. Restaurant comped our entire meal, on the bright side.

    It was New Year’s Eve… We had a party of 8. Apolline had a six course pre-fix meal, which I think was a little too adventurous. The wait staff were busting their tails… But I think the kitchen just got backed up so there were literally 20 to 30 minute delays in between courses. We were there over 3 1/2 hours. Some people left. Now the food was excellent! Our waiter was excellent… Kyle… But we even ordered drinks in between our wine pairings. The wine pairings were probably 2 ounces…definitely not 3 and they were definitely not typical of New Orleans. I’ve had bigger pores at wine tastings. We were at the 6 PM seating and did not leave until after 9:30 PM. I think four courses would have been more manageable with a lower price per person.

    Some portions were quite small for the price of the entrees, and certainly not enough to fill you up, particularly the duck. The value for what you pay is disproportionate. The service and ambiance, however, were wonderful. I have had great experiences at Apolline, but I don’t want to leave hungry after a $200 meal.

    The food was excellent except it was all a little to salty. I love super salty food. Im a local who eats crawfish and drinks beer till my feet swell and it was even salty by my standards. Otherwise it was excellent. Highly recommend fried green tomatos. Drinks were great. Service and ambient excellent.

    The restaurant is on Magazine Street which is a collection of homes, shops and restaurants. Apolline appears to have been a home at one time. It's attractive decor is very pleasant. Unusual these days, the tables were covered with white table cloths. The wait staff was very knowledgeable and provided very good service. The food is very creative and even familiar dishes have an interesting twist. Here's a couple of examples we loved: Seared Diver Scallops Gulf Shrimp, Corn Maque Choux, San Marzano Tomato Sauce Pan Seared Verlasso Salmon Pan Seared with Skin On, Roasted Asparagus, Purple Fingerling Potatoes, Dijon-Dill Vinaigrette, Southern City Farm Microgreens The wine list contained a number of wines that I wasn't familiar with but the server provided some excellent advice. The prices were reasonable.
