Traveled from CA for my Birthday celebration, highly anticipated the dining experience. First no one answers the phone , and there is an old recording . Went on Sept 2nd , the gentleman said they were closed he was advised not to let anyone else in at 8:30 .Went back on Sept 3rd and there is a sign which read “ closed to observe Labor Day “ . Please update your outgoing message and 2nd designate someone to answer the phone . I understand it’s a historic establishment and so your demand is great and so maybe customer service is not priority on your list : however I suggest that a more personable approach would be welcoming . This was $80 wasted in Uber fares.Extremely disappointing !!

This place is located a little way from the centre of the popular parts of the city but this iconic restaurant is certainly worth a visit on any trip to New Orleans. The food and service are excellent, and our server Terry was amazing; people around us commented that we had the best server, and nothing seemed too much trouble. The personal touch of the owner visiting each table was great. We had the shrimp linguine, fried chicken with Mac and cheese, stuffed shrimp and bread pudding, all of which were great, though I imagine any dish on the menu will not disappoint. Although not the most important thing, the value for money offered is fabulous.

We just walked in but it was more towards the end of lunch so we were seated immediately. If going in prime lunch hour I would think it would be helpful. Enjoy a fantastic experience!

What are the prices

Tracy Robinson | Sep 11, 2018
Christopher Meo | Sep 11, 2018

The lunch buffet is $20. Outside of that, the main dishes range from $15 to $25. Well worth the price. I'd try and make it to the buffet because you get so many options and comes with a soup and dessert.

Theresa Faulkner | Sep 10, 2021

It is 10 mins by car. But you also are already on Google. Just use Google maps. It is super helpful and WAYYY better than Apple Maps. Save yourself some time and headache and use Google Maps for these kinda questions.
