Ladies, make sure you’ve got shapewear on because you’re gonna need it! This 👏🏻 place 👏🏻 was 👏🏻 INCREDIBLE👏🏻 My group went here for dinner for my best friend’s birthday and man, they did not disappoint! I had the wild mushroom gnocchi then duck and it was perfectly cooked, perfectly seasoned, perfectly moist. My husband had the pork chops and omg did he make himself hurt devouring them. Worth it. Lastly, we had the bread pudding and holy cow, I could eat that for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. We’d made a reservation prior and didn’t have to wait long. Not drunk but just a klutz and spilled water everywhere (so embarrassing) but the wait staff was super nice about it. Our waiter was great and didn’t rush us to make our selections and even helped with recommendations. After dinner, we wandered around and got to see the seance room, upstairs, and the balcony overlooking Jackson Square and St. Louis Cathedral. It was absolutely stunning. Everyone should check this out while they’re in NOLA.

OMG! I found out about this venue from the Real Housewives of Orange County.. and reserved a table. Met Randall, the maitre d, who was amazing! The venue was incredible.. a hidden gem.. I was here 2 years ago and never knew about them. So, I recommend you look them up.. Sofia and Liv were a great team as our servers! Food was delicious and the service was outstanding!

The hostesses were extremely pleasant and accommodating, really loved how kind they were. I ordered the sugarcane festival 3-course meal. First course was amazing. Shrimp was cooked perfectly, sauce was great. French bread was soft and tasted excellent dipped in the sauce. Second course was not to my liking. Ribs and mashed potatoes were cold. Mashed potatoes had no flavor at all and tasted like instant. Unfortunately, I did not eat this portion of courses. Third course, the pineapple upside down cake was fabulous. Waitress seemed very friendly, although not towards me. I wondered if that were due to me being a solo diner, but, another solo diner arrived next to my table and she was very conversational toward him. A shame because I wanted to see if my food could be heated up, but by the time she came around, I was ready to go.

The food was good, the desert was great. The staff is wonderful. Now the bad. Ordering $55 Filet medium rare and getting it close to well done was disappointing to say the least. To be honest, I should have sent it back but I hate doing that. My wife got the three course meal and she gave it an A+, I tasted the grits and shrimp and it is among the best i have ever had. Great location, great atmosphere and history in this building.

Tries to go to Herbsaint but it was booked. My local friend said at least muriels is huge and good chance to get a seat. We all had the three course table de hotel menu. Turtle soup ok, drum pretty good , it was heavily pecan crusted, too many pecans for me but that wasn't a big deal, the greens underneath were excellent and the sauce was outstanding. The duck was ok. The pork was very very good, the Tasso marinara was surprisingly good. I love the inside decor esp the huge map in the bathroom. The hosts for excellent but the waitress was a little too slick -- we noticed a problem with a bill and when we brought it up the rerun it and explained everything to us in a way that made me more suspicious of the first problem which I had initially assumed was an oversight. It's just a certain kind of quick powder people use to confuse drunk people and since we weren't drunk and still confused I'm not sure exactly what happened but I had a weird instinct a out it. I'm glad I tried it and got to go inside but I probably won't be going back
