    We had a wonderful experience at Red Fish. Our server, Caleb, was amazing! He gave great recommendations. We definitely would recommend and will come back again next time we’re in NOLA.

    First time we dined at Arnaud’s Jazz Bistro and it was definitely one of the best dining experiences I had in a long time. This is southern hospitality at its best. Starting with the host and everybody that stop by the table to make sure we were having a great experience. Food was phenomenal, baked oysters the best we have had, the soufflé potatoes blew me away something so simple but yet so delicious. The Amandine which was Crisply fried Trout almond Topped with sliced almonds and Lemon Butter Sauce just amazing. Again everything was perfect from the staff, the food the music. We were celebrating my birthday and anniversary and they made sure to get the jazz group to sing for us and as a gift a mini baked Alaska which was a great touch to end our dinner. Will be back for sure!

    Great jazz piano player made the evening great. Especially since we were staying in the hotel there. You don’t always have a food experience like this in a hotel. Very nice experience with food and entertainment.
