Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in West Bank

We had jazz brunch here. The food, atmosphere, wait staff and music were all wonderful! I had the fried oyster appetizer and the gouda grits. This is my new favorite brunch spot in New Orleans! I can't wait to go back for lunch or dinner. And of course another brunch.

Everything about this meal was incredible. There were 6 of us and we never even made it to the Large Dishes. We all shared most of the Salatim, then ordered several of the Hummus Dishes and finally ordered a few of the Small Plates. Our waitress was perfectly attentive, our drinks were always filled and the Pita was freshly made and the plate was filled to our hearts content. Would DEFINITELY recommend Shaya.

It was a great experience. The food and service was outstanding. I would highly recommend The Pelican Club.

We had a reservation for three and we’re seated on-time in the main dining room. We started off with cocktails and the Waygu Beer Carpaccio dish with beets. The appetizer was absolutely delicious with the acid of the beets nicely pairing with the flavors of the thinly sliced Waygu beef… the dish was topped with fried shallots that provided a nice texture as well as additional flavor profiles. Our second course was the Turtle Soup. The soup was absolutely delicious with pulled meat in the dish along with a nice amount of dry sherry… we had the same soup the night before at Commander’s and Atchafalaya made this dish much better!!! For the meal, I had the pan seared Gulf fish. The fish was prepared to perfection… my husband and father had the Duck Confit which was as also perfectly done. The wait staff was wonderful… they kept the water glasses and wine glasses full and offered insightful comments on the menu items. Overall the meal was fantastic… the ambience and noise level were great… we were able to enjoy a meal together with a wonderful conversation even my father with hearing aides was able to hear the conversation and participate! I highly recommend Atchafalaya for that special meal or just a night out with the girls… you will love your meal and experience.

Absolutely 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.
