We love this place. Every time we come to NOLA this is one of our must dine place. Dennis was our server and he made us feel like VIPs. The food is alway amazing so you can’t go wrong with anything they have on the menu. The lobster dumplings are a must experience. The biscuits are alway delectable. I encourage if you are in NOLA add this to your itinerary.

Extraordinary, warm, skilled service (Anne as a server and Jerry as general manager who checked on us 4+ times). Straightforward, delicious crab cakes, wedge salad (perhaps add a little more dressing), steaks, sauces and that perfect ube cheesecake. Sexy, roomy interior great for a date night. A real gem in the CBD.

We had been waiting for so long to go to Shaya! It was a beautiful restaurant with attention to details and amazing service! The fried chicken hummus was incredible and by far our favorite…nothing like it we have ever tried! Comparable to a hummus from a Michelin restaurant in DC…definitely a must try on Shaya’s menu! Can’t wait to return here next time we are in New Orleans!
