    Everything about Annunciation was amazing. Our server, Mike, was attentive and informative. The meal was delicious including the dessert, the chocolate truffle. The French martini was also perfect! The roasted duck melted in your mouth. My husband and I are serious cooks and he is extremely picky!!! He thought that it was excellent as well and we are looking forward to going back.

    Excellent service. Got there shortly after opening and sat at the bar. The bartender made me a great Sazerac and took my order. Fresh bread was delivered and I enjoyed some oysters prior to my shrimp ettouffee. Overall a very good dining experience.

    Annunciation was great. Very welcoming and helpful in explaining dishes and foods native to the gulf (as we are from New York and were unfamiliar with gulf fish) along with helping us out in finding other places to meet what we wanted to try out. I would definitely recommend Scott and team.

    The food was delicious! The Shrimp Remoulade was out of this world, as was the Gulf Fish Capri. The chocolate pecan pie wasn’t as great as all of the other food, but I’m happy to go back and try the bread pudding instead.

    Appetizers : brussel sprout hash browns and ravioli of the day were very very good. You can make a pretty decent meal out of the ravioli which on this night was spinach and ricotta. Mains" grilled NY strip and local drum. The fish was very moist and flavorful and each side complemented the fish (artichokes, mushrooms and a nice sauce). The strip was thin cut which I didnt expect and was fairly blah. I should have gone with another fish dish or the duck (which I've had in the past and was outstanding). desserts: I dont normally say this but if you just wanted to grab dessert and this really good restaurant, then this would be a great out of the way option. We had their signature chocolate dessert which is SPECTACULAR...kind of like an icy chocolate mousse, but delicious. We also took with server's suggestion and got the cheesecake with grand marnier sauce...again, wonderfully balanced, not overly sweet, wonderful texture of the cake and a crust to die for. We will definitely be back (but probably will pass on the steak).

    We always eat here when we visit NOLA. Always outstanding food and service. I had the fish (drum) capri and creole tomato salad. Both had great, fresh flavors and went well with the pinot grigio the waiter recommended. My husband had a beet salad and the filet special and said they were wonderful.

    We were seated upstairs. Nice relaxed atmosphere. Our waiter came to the table very quickly. We made special requests on both our drink and food orders and both were accommodated with no problem. The drinks were really good, our Caesar salads were great, and our entrees were also delicious. Lamb Shank and paneed veal. Vanilla creme brulee dessert also delicious. Our waiter was very attentive and helpful throughout, and we were not rushed to leave. Overall a really nice experience. And parking on the street was readily available.

    Really good service (shout out to our server, Sam (and great host at the door, too). Lots of helpful teamwork throughout. Food was quite good; thoughtful, but not overly so. Not a lot of ingredients, so all the flavors came through beautifully. Mixed drinks were professional, crisp-tasting and happily served (and consumed).

    Annunciation was a great restaurant with a good vibe. We went on Saturday before Mother's Day. Service was great and the food was great. Me and my wife had the Veal and first time having Veal it had amazing flavor. For the first time in a long time I had dessert after dinner and the Pecan Pie was amazing!

    We had a terrible experience here. I brought my girlfriend here for date night and we were severely underwhelmed. Once seated, we waited over 30 minutes for anyone to stop by and take our drink order (restaurant was less than 50% full). Cocktails came out as a super watered-down drink and was about 70% ice. Entrees took another 45 - hour to come out and the food was inedible. I got the veal, and it tasted like I was eating an entire bag of flour alongside a table spoons worth of noodles. My girlfriend got the drum which was overcooked and dry. Our waiter never came to check back in with us since our drink order, so we were unable to send the food back. We just decided to pay and leave because of the terrible time we had. Overall super disappointed because this used to be one of my favorite places in the city, but definitely won't be coming back.

    The food is top notch but due to booking large groups in the dining room, the noise level is ear piercing! Because of that, we gobbled down our incredible food in under 45 minutes to escape. The duck was supreme.

    We were in town for the Jazz Fest and took our family of six out to celebrate a birthday. We ordered seven appetizers and four entrees for the table to share family style. Our server gave great recommendations and had a fun personality that we really appreciated. Every dish was top shelf, but some particular favorites were the fried green tomatoes, the oysters annunciation, the drum with addition of lump crabmeat on top (excellent brown butter sauce with crispy potatoes and silky mushrooms), the roasted duck, and the bread pudding. They have a great wine list too, and the service was outstanding. One of my sons works for a Michelin star chef and he very impressed with our every aspect of our meal..
