    Ashley was an excellent server who made our Thanksgiving dinner very special. She was timely and very attentive. All of the staff were friendly and courteous. The ambiance was great as usual, and seeing an alligator and all the wildlife was wonderful. We chose Restaurant des Familles because it is one of our favorite restaurants in the area and they did not disappoint in making our Thanksgiving meal memorable. We will be back soon as we have guests coming in from Michigan for New Year’s. We know they will love the atmosphere and the food that only Restaurant des Familles can provide!!!

    The restaurant itself is so cute! Everyone was super friendly, they had good music playing and most of the customers were vibing. We were there on a Monday night so there were half priced apps and drinks. Food came out quickly and was so delicious, we tried the chicken cracklins, sweet chili wings, and drinks to start. We’re from out of town so we had red beans and rice and a po boy for mains which also came out fast and tasted great. Sweet potato beignets are a MUST!

    We went on the recommendation of a local who’s aunt and uncle own this place. It did NOT disappoint. The service was exceptional and the food phenomenal. The prices were perfectly reasonable. It’s maybe my new favorite NOLA spot to grab a bite. Missed the live jazz as we went on weekday instead of weekend, I’m going to have to check out that scene.
