    My husband is still talking about the red beans and rice. The sweet pot beignets were amazing. Everything was really tasty and I loved our server too.

    Jeff our waiter was phenomenal, he did not rush us and was very pleasant . He had a great energy and enjoyed what he did and it showed . He made the night ! Food was excellent and speciality drinks and turtle soup were amazing ! Great table too . Room was loud when filled, hard to hear at our table ; suggest some type of ceiling dampers to decrease noise level for a better fine dining experience .

    We are from Washington State and when we made our reservations, we had planned on eating outside. Two weeks later when we got to NOLA, the weather turned for the worst and they were very prompt at accommodating us at their little barrel location. Wait staff was amazing and the food top notch. Would recommend to anyone looking for good Italian in the big easy.

    A wonderful three course meal was in store for Christmas Day! I was hoping for Fire-Grilled Oysters, but not offered on their special Christmas Day menu. However, an incredible Gumbo and a slightly spicy Corn-Crab Bisque took their place. Followed by the best Crab Cake ever, and that includes all the ones I used to get in Maryland and Virginia! Next, my partner ordered the Shrimp Cappellini Pasta topped with lump crab meat - exceptionally seasoned pasta and shrimp cooked to perfection. I ordered the Snapper Hemingway - Snapper with a Parmesan Crust topped with lump crab meat and a lemon butter sauce, served with Pimento Cheese Grits and grilled Asparagus. So incredibly tasty! The Pimento Cheese Grits were the perfect companion to the crisp, crunch of the Parmesan crusted Snapper. The only downside to the meal was the grilled Asparagus which was woody and mushy. We ended our feast with a rich, creamy Key Lime Pie - the real kind, not that fake green stuff that is served all too often. A truly excellent meal with very attentive wait staff who seemed to magically appear just when you needed them. Bravo!
