Friendly service, good drinks, very good food. Highly recommend the beet and burrata dish as an appetizer. The roasted chicken and pompano were both delicious.

My wife, son, and I visited while on vacation for our 15th anniversary (wife and I of course, son is 5). Food was amazing and the staff were great. The history of the Bananas Foster makes the sugary dish even better… a must visit when in New Orleans.

We had an excellent experience at Copper Vine. We had a group of 5, and we didn’t have to wait long for service or our food. David was amazing! He was so friendly and welcoming. He made sure our group had everything we needed. David was prompt and professional.

Whenever we are in town, we always try to make at least one visit to Vessel. We've been there several times, and the food is always spectacular, delicious and consistent. The service is excellent and always top notch. It is truly a beautiful restaurant unlike anything we've ever seen, it's in an old church and the ceiling is amazing. We are already planning our next trip and have Vessel on the top of our list of "must do's".
