- TTeresaAtlantic Canada •1 review5.0Dined 3 days agoWe had a lovely evening at Muriel’s. The service was excellent. My husband and I had the three course dinner. All the food was very good. My pecan crusted fish was outstanding. The drinks were delicious and creative. After our meal we were told that we could access the second floor bar. We enjoyed the ambiance and go great photos from the second floor balcony. Highly recommend!More infoMuriel's Jackson SquarePrice: Very Expensive• Creole / Cajun / Southern• French Quarter•4.7
- TTerrySeattle / Eastern Washington •1 review5.0Dined 3 days agoFood is incredible. We did the Reveilon meal and the chooses where great! Anything that was a “or” on the menu we each order the “or” so we could try everything on the menu. It was so Amazing! The service was “Impeccable”. Have never had such fantastic service. Each staff member “Loved” their job and it showed, wasn’t just a front like some places. They all truly believed that that all the staff was “Family” and they took care of each other. Zachery was our main wait person, he was so happy ti be there and assist with all of questions no matter what they were. Extremely knowledgeable of the menu and was just amazing. By the time we left we had come to know his life story. Such an Amazing person. Thank You Zachary for the lovely evening.More infoAntoine'sPrice: Expensive• Creole• French Quarter•4.6
- DDianeNew Orleans / Louisiana •28 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoAbsolutely outstanding. The drink specials were awesome, the apps shared were crawfish beignets, Brussels sprouts and fig and goat cheese flat bread were top notch. Entrees varied and enjoyed by all: chicken sandwich, redfish dish, short rib dish, steak &. Frites, gumbo, beet salad and scallion soup. Desserts were the finishing touches. All plates were cleared and we left very happy and satisfied.More infoCopper VinePrice: Moderate• Wine Bar• Central Business District•4.8
- AAshleyNew York City •2 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoBrennan’s is always a good choice for brunch! The dining area started off quiet… but got a bit noisy towards the end. I wish there was better noise absorbing surfaces to help manage the noise levels… my 70+ Father who joined my husband and I for brunch really struggled to hear us and had to keep adjusting his hearing aides to be able to try and enjoy our conversations… The food and service did not disappoint! I had the Crab & Avocado toast with a poached egg on top, my husband had the Duck Confit Hash and my father had the Eggs St. Charles. All were very good! We ordered the Brabant Potatoes for the table…. And as always they were out of this world!!! The coffee was brewed to perfection and the service was impeccable… overall a great meal, just a little noisy.More infoBrennan'sPrice: Expensive• Creole• French Quarter•4.8
- MMichaelVIPNew Orleans / Louisiana •46 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoI’ve submitted several reviews, as I eat here a good bit. It’s silly excellent, still my favorite. There’s a wide variety of Gulf oysters from which to choose. The seafood gumbo is my favorite in the city, really rich & full of protein. I had the Speckled Trout Amandine, which I had not tried before, & it was quite good. In short, it’s always a great meal at Luke, & I’ll keep coming back until they give me a reason not to.More infoLukePrice: Moderate• French• Central Business District•4.6
