“The finest restaurant in all of New Orleans if not the country. My wife and i travel 6 months of the year and we always compare whatever restaurant we are dining at to GW Fins. GW Fins always come out on top. This includes Michelins star restaurants. The food and the staff are impeccable. This restaurant is enough reason to go to New Orleans. See you next year“

“We've lived in New Orleans for 10 years, wife's from here, and we're spoiled with the best cuisine and this was another next level place. Had a quick bite at the bar with raw oysters and gumbo. It's definitely all that. I highly recommend checking this place out.“

“Pretty solid poboy. The bread is what does it for me. This place had great bread. I would assume it is baked in-house. It had the flare of French baguette but only the kind of Louisiana French you can get. The oyster and shrimp were delicious.“

“Dinner here was great. We started with the wood-fried oysters. At first the oysters themselves seemed a bit disappointing but the flavour is all in that garlic butter sauce for which they provide bread for soaking that all in. The bread itself was amazing, soft and warm like a type of Hawaiian roll. For the mains, we tried the smoked porterhouse pork chop (they ran out of the double) and the "Cochon". The pork chop was nicely smoked, rich with flavour.The Cochon was a bit disappointing as the meat was dry and the green beans were a bit bland for our taste. Thankfully, the pickled pear saved the dish but there was not near enough of it to compliment the meat. If the meat were a bit juicier and the side was maybe a cheesy grits with more pickled pear on top, it may be a winner. I was thankful we got the creamy grits on the side as it paired well with these meaty dishes.To end, we tried the pineapple upside down cake with ice cream. This dessert was perfectly balanced.. warm cake almost bread pudding-like with the ice cream... not too sweet with the slightly tart pineapple. It was a real treat.Overall the dinner and service were great. Cochon seems like a gem in the NOLA area.“

“It’s was a belated birthday dinner, and it was well worth the wait. Food was scrumptious, our waitress was full of personality. Kitchen was busy, but gave us time to breathe between courses. The white chocolate bread pudding was excellent and large enough for 3 of us to share. Thanks for such a delicious meal … until next time …“

“We had the most amazing dining experience we've had in awhile. Our server was attentive without hovering. We ordered the gulf fish (Drum) for my son and we did the Chef's choice. Everything came out with perfection. Our drinks were never empty and no courses overlapped. Needless to say we left full and blown away by the whole team at Plates.“

“I’ve never reviewed my greatest restaurant ever but I will start now. In October my wife and I went to Emeril in New Orleans. Not an easy reservation but worth the time, effort and long trip from our home in Hawaii. Our experience was great. . We knew that there were plans to shut down Emeril for a total redesign from top to bottom. We waited for the exact date to try to get a reservation and luckily secured one. We had absolutely no idea what to expect. The experience we had proved that the “new Emeril “ is the best restaurant we’ve ever been to. I will not describe each dish since it would take up too many words but know that each dish was outstanding. Now I will explain why Emeril is #1 in the eyes of both my wife and myself. Online you will see that there are two Tasting Menus, no a La carte so we were at least prepared for what we were going to eat. We were not prepared for the following total mind bending and culinary experience. When entering Emeril you are greeted with a true Aloha greeting. We sat at the gorgeous bar since we were early and had a Vieux Care our new go to cocktail. The mixologist continued with the Aloha Spirit and made an exceptional Vieux. The bar area was awesome. In a very short time we were greeted by a hostess who escorted us to the brand new dining room. It totally blew our minds. Twenty or less tables with a huge space between them. You almost feel that you are the only guests there. The table we sat at had a large banquette that just added a new dimension to comfort. Large gorgeous pillows supported our backs. Almost directly in front of us was a huge glass enclosed kitchen. This was pure culinary theatre. Almost immediately a chef came to our table and asked us if we would like to see the inside of the kitchen. We didn’t bat an eye and followed him into the most gorgeous well thought out kitchen we’ve ever seen. The chef gave us a brief description of the kitchen, introduced us to the staff and the entire team offered up a special hello. We both felt like the greatest VIP’s. He then showed us to a small table next to us that had two champagne flutes with what he said was a rhubarb juice. Also on a plate was a cube of some unbelievable jellied concoction to showcase the ingredients. Back to our table and the party began. The two tasting menus were explained, one Classic and the other Seasonal. Then the Amuse Bouches started arriving. We expected only one or two. Nope, two sets, one group of cold, the the other warm. Each one was as great as the seven small main dishes. The beauty of the entire experience was that we both left feeling sated, never full. The service was impeccable. Never hovering but always there and totally knowledgeable about every dish and that includes ingredients. The sommelier was the antithesis of what many sommelier’s are. Being Wine Educators and Consultants we really appreciated his knowledge and communication skills as well as his passion towards wine. We had a dedicated service team who I would love to take with us to other great but not perfect restaurants. Jason Burse, the Assistant General Manager made the whole experience into a perfect culinary tour de force. This is why we both feel that Emeril is the Best Restaurant we’ve ever eaten at. Although expensive, it did not break the bank. Can’t wait to return next October.“

“I thoroughly enjoy my experiences at Cooter Brown's Tavern. During my recent visit – not my first – I indulged in their delicious fried oysters, which were simply outstanding. Additionally, their fried fish and cheese fries surpassed my expectations. The service was prompt and welcoming, contributing to the establishment's laid-back atmosphere. Undoubtedly, Cooter Brown's Tavern ranks among my favorite spots in New Orleans.“

“The host/manager was a bit off and made us stand in the doorway for several minutes before seating us in a near empty restaurant but once we were seated our server was great and the food was exceptional. Amazing gumbo and the crawfish mac and cheese was a winner. Solid drinks too. Check this place out.“

“Visited Mandina’s as part of a birthday celebration for my nephew. My wife and I split a muffuletta and fries as we had had a larger lunch. The Muffuletta was good as were the fries. Everyone else in our party had one of Mandina’s variations on spaghetti and all enjoyed their meal. Appetizers of fried onion rings and crawfish cakes were quite tasty. Service was good. A little pricy, but again, the restaurant is in the Mid City ward of New Orleans. Worth checking out!“

“A neighborhood gem. We loved it so much we went there twice in our three day stay. We ordered an oyster and a shrimp po'boy with fries. It was all spectacular and the vibes were on point. This restaurant is a great example of a local institution keeping things simple and classic. Go and thank me later.“

“A bit of mixed feelings about it. Let’s start from the end. The bread pudding tasted good but not like a bread pudding. It tasted more like a ‘cake pudding’. The scallops, all 4 of them were very salty, thanks god that all else was potatoes to clean the palate :). We expected more considering the prices and ambience.“

“Although the potions have been significantly reduced over the years, the flavors remain intact. It is still a recommendable place even if there are long lines at the door. Prices have also increased significantly, but in my opinion they still serve the best barbecue shrimp on the planet.“

“Located in the heart of Lakeview, Russell’s Marina Diner stands as a cherished beacon of New Orleans’ rich culinary tradition.Since its inception in 1985, this diner has carved out a niche for itself as the go-to destination for exceptional breakfasts, weaving itself into the fabric of the city’s dining scene.With a menu that spans the gamut from indulgent fried chicken and waffles to a diverse array of egg specialties, Russell’s caters to a broad spectrum of tastes.Not forgetting the health-conscious, the diner also offers lighter fare such as eggwhite omelets and sweet potato pancakes, ensuring that every patron leaves satisfied.The dining experience is further enhanced by the option to enjoy your meal either inside the diner’s cozy interior, at the counter where the local vibe thrives, in their inviting dining room, or outside on the pet-friendly patio, making it perfect for every occasion.During my visit, I decided to try the legendary Egg Saints #33—a daring concoction that perfectly embodies New Orleans’ flair for culinary innovation.This dish features a grilled biscuit topped with alligator sausage, grilled tomatoes, poached eggs, and smothered in homemade country gravy.Each component of the dish harmonizes to create a breakfast experience that is both unique and profoundly satisfying.From the moment I stepped inside, I was greeted with the diner’s unmistakable local charm, enhanced by the friendly service that made me feel right at home.The ambiance, a blend of the cozy and the communal, set the perfect stage for what was to be an unforgettable meal.The Premier League playing softly in the background added a touch of camaraderie, reminiscent of a neighborhood café where everyone is welcome.The highlight of my visit was, without a doubt, the food.The Egg Saints #33 was a revelation, transforming the classic eggs Benedict into a dish that captivated my palate and left me pondering the culinary prowess behind it.Every bite was a testament to Russell’s commitment to quality and innovation, making it clear why this diner holds a special place in the hearts of New Orleans’ residents and visitors alike.In a city lauded for its vibrant food scene, claiming the title of "best breakfast" is no small feat.Yet, as I left Russell’s Marina Diner, I was already yearning to return and dive deeper into their menu.This hidden gem is an absolute must-visit for anyone looking to experience the soul of New Orleans through its food, served with a side of unmatched hospitality.“

“A wonderful experience in the place of experience’s. If your coming to Bourbon Street, make this a must do on your list. My Sazerac was spot on, and the food was authentic and very flavorful. Full on the food or not, you will be amiss if you don’t try the bread pudding. I also Don’t want to forget to mention the great service and the very friendly staff as well, they really made our first time visit to New Orleans a great one. Just wow!!“

“Lot's of decisions and they are all pretty good! You walk in place your order boil bags from shrimp to pig feet boil. (And everything else) And the other line they have is for fried platters. Both lines stay fairly busy. Which means...., The food must be pretty good or people wouldn't wait in line for that long to get an order. And it is that good. I got the softshell crab platter with fried rice, which was rather delicious. It was more than I could eat. and my husband had the shrimp po' boy sandwich He thought was pretty good. If you looking for cheaper and taste as good as the French Quarter then you should check it out.The ambience is so so it's really nothing to brag about because you just go pick up your food. Sit and eat it if you like and if you don't you keep it moving.“

“Customer Service leaves a lot to be desired. Our waitress barely stopped by to check on us. The food was fantastic. The charbroiled oysters were plump and meaty. The gumbo and coleslaw were both very flavorful. And the fried fish dinner was also fantastic. Is the service was anywhere near the quality of the food I would recommend 100%.“

“Where to begin. Food. I would say the best filet in town! Sides were amazing and plenty to share. I am a French onion soup snob,(had it seven times in Paris), and it was divine! From the beginning, our party of five fell in love with Terrance and Thomas! And the gentleman with him, it was Double T double D! From napkin in the lap to folded if you left the table(it's the little things that are few and far between). They watched to see if refills were needed and were beyond attentive! The entree presentation was awesome! I cannot say enough good things! Fixing to enjoy a chocolate martini before leaving! It's a must if you are visiting Nola!“

Plenty of seating, diverse crowd. They have live music at times. I’ve come back a second time this weekend and it’s still a great spot. I will tell anyone to come here if they are visiting N.O.“

“I was in the mood for some gumbo & stopped here after reading reviews. The reviews don't lie - their gumbo was Sooooo good! The best I've had with perfectly cooked sausage, shrimp, & chicken and just the right amount of kick. I loved that the combo came with grilled cheese & potato salad; it was the perfect balance. We also ordered the lobster mash and it was delicious! I only got a few bites before my husband devoured it. We'll definitely visit next time we're in NOLA.“

The ice cream cake (Mile high pie) is a bit pricy but I really love having sweets while enjoying the music (My friend doesn't like the mint flavor in the strawberry ice cream but I like it) relaxing atmosphere, The best combination of tasty food, and jazz music!“

“Service excellent. My server was very friendly and accommodating. My table was in front of an open door. Normally that's great but today I was getting too much from the street, if you know what I mean. Took me to another table right away. Had a house salad and the special, Oceana grilled Redfish topped with a crab cake and mushroom crawfish cream sauce. Garlic mashed potatoes and mixed vegetables. Had a tough spot down the fish, never experienced that before. Other than that. All was good. Check out my photos.“

It’s a sweet potato bread that’s absolutely delicious. I’ve even had breakfast here and it was absolutely delicious. For the Sunday brunch they really should have a smooth, jazz band to play I make the seating, more aesthetically pleasing. This is one of my favorite places to dine.Parking: Valet parking is convenient with validation stamp it’s under $20.“

LOVE this place!! All time great!“

“I absolutely love going here! I've never had anything bad to speak of. The service is terrific, thanks to a young gentleman named Nate! He is absolutely the best server I've encountered in about 5 years! Nate went above and beyond, treated us with major kindness and professionalism, and did not miss a beat of his job! When we go there, we will request Nate as our server! Thank you, young man, for just being you!!“
