Sadly, this was one of the worst dining experiences I have ever had. We waited atleast 45 minutes for our cocktails, someone other than our waiter ended up bringng them and we were missing 2 of the 4. When the appetizers arrived, again 2 of the 4 never came. Our entrees arrived almost two hours after ordering, mine was cold, tasteless, and unedible. The baked alaska we ordered for dessert also never came. Our waiter Flex was terrible and was constantly making excuses. We almost had to walk out without paying because the restaurant was literally closing down with staff leaving, the floors being mopped, and nobody to be found to bring us our check. They did comp my entree, but honestly the whole meal should have been comped.

Having heard this was the birthplace of the Rockefeller oysters, I had to eat here. The ambiance was relaxing and felt private. All the staff were friendly.I started out with the three types of oysters they offered, all of which were good in their own way. The original were bold, the charbroiled were more mild, and the Bienville were different with the peppers and pimento but still full of flavor.For a drink, I had the Rose French 75. While this was delicious, my only complaint is the value of the drink for the amount given. I would say that lacked the most in terms of price for the entire meal.I choose the redfish on the half shell as a main course. The flavors were full and rich while the food was cooked to perfection. Plenty of food in terms of size.This was a unique place to eat and would definitely visit again.

We were walking past and the bartender called out to welcome us to come in. It was enticing. She told us to walk around and check out all the history. The place is like the coolest museum. We then stopped at the bar and had some appetizers and drinks. Everything was amazing. It was a great experience. The bartender talked to us and told us some cool stories. It was just great.

Historic venue with great food. Service was spot on. Brunch included a band and all you could drink mimosas. Definitely worth a visit and a repeat.

Absolutely ABYSMAL service! We have been dining there for 50 years and this was soooo unusual…We walked in at 5:40 for a 5:45pm reservation. The hostess did not smile, did not welcome us. Just asked our name. We were seated and the servers helpers took our drink order after we sat there for 15 minutes. When the helpers brought the French bread and drinks, they asked if we wanted any appetizers. We ordered Escargot, Oysters Rockefeller, and French Onion soup. Again, the helpers brought the appetizers. Once we finished the appetizers, an employee came by and picked up our dirty plates (unbeknownst to us, that was to be our server, Letisha). A table of ~8 was seated behind us and the same server came out, welcomed them, asked if they had ever been to Antoine’s, and preceded to tell the history of the restaurant. Then, she chit chatted for a minute or two. 25 MINUTES AFTER WE WERE SEATED, and after warmly greeting the table behind us, the server (Letisha) came to our table and asked if we were ready for entrees. She NEVER introduced herself, she NEVER welcomed us, she NEVER asked if we had been there before, she NEVER asked if we had questions about the menu. NOTHING! She asked if everything was good so far, and I said, “Not really. I think we’re going to pay and go.” She never asked a single question and didn’t say a word. Just left the table and came back with a check and laid it on the table. At this point, my husband and I were so shocked and disappointed in our experience that my husband took the check, with his credit card, and walked up to the manager and told him what an inexcusable experience we had had. To the credit of the manager, he took care of the bill and we left the restaurant. We went to The Omni Hotel Rib Room and had a fabulous dinner with excellent service.

My wife and I had an excellent dinner in their main dining room tonight. Our two servers were very attentive and friendly, and the food was great. Here is what we ordered:Starters1) Charbroiled Oysters2) Day Boat ScallopsEntrees3) Classic Fish Amandine w/Crabmeat4) Lambchops w/Port Demi GlaceDessert5) Classic Crème BruleeDrinks6) Les L'egendes Bordeaux Rouge '207) Vieux CarréEverything was very good, but the oysters really stood out for me. I could have eaten 5 plates full and just called it a night! Overall, a great night and a very enjoyable meal.Fun fact: Antoine's allegedly has the second largest wine cellar in the United States second only to Disney World. If you ask for the wine menu you'll see there's a table of contents!

This was an exceptional restaurant. I really enjoyed the different room decor. It changed from area to area. Also the staff and waiters looked very professional in their black suits. Very nice touch. White linens? Indeed.Service was exceptional. Our waitress was the best.They were a bit busy so food prep was a little slow but not out of the ordinary. Our meals were awesome. Great menu, great prep, and great presentation.This location cannot be missed. You will enjoy!Parking: Take an Uber or walk. You won’t find parking.
