Tried to get a reservation, only opening was 9:45pm, ended up doing a walk in, and was seated within 10 minutes in the patio area. Was wonderful to see the turtles in the fountain, and was still able to get a banana foster at 11am on a Sunday. Incredible experience.

The food at Brennan's was beyond outstanding. We tried a variety of appetizers, entrees and a dessert and everything was elegant and delicious. The atmosphere was up scale and unique and added to the overall experience. Our server was very nice but the service was a bit slow. Overall we were there for 2 hours for brunch. However, we would still definitely recommend!

Well, what can I say about this old school standard! My father ate here in the late 50's and was forever changed by the eggs husard and the home of bananas foster! 60 years later, I did the same! Go and tell your grandkids about it!

The service was flawless, the environment friendly, and the food was other worldly. Every dish I had was a journey into multiple layers of flavors embued with local and world history.It was the first time trying the turtle soup, which was like having a ying yang of flavors all at once. The side dishes were also very good and full of flavor. The main dishes were very good: blackened redfish and pork.Desert was bananas foster and orange sorbet (orange in many different forms)

Impeccable is the best way to describe the experience at Brennan's. The food is delicious, the decor is stunning and the service is delightful.
Absolutely delightful! Our waiter was hilarious and very attentive. Everything we tried was delicious and flavorful. The food took awhile however we were with a large group so I felt it was a reasonable amount of time overall. Beautiful restaurant on the inside as well.

The atmosphere and drinks were great but honestly I was not impressed with my seafood meal. It was lacking in flavor which was disappointing with the price. It seemed that others were enjoying their meal though

Was able to secure a reservation during our tiny window of time in Nola. My husband is a homestyle eggs, bacon, home fries kind of guy. They were able to accommodate his request even though it’s not an option on the menu. He liked his choice which came with a generous amount of eggs, crispy bacon, and puffed potatoes. He had a Prosecco with the hot bread that came before the meals.I’m on a no meat/no dairy diet. I already knew I was ordering the Seafood Gumbo and so glad I did. It was the best gumbo of the trip. I even doublechecked they would have it when the hostess called me to confirm my reservation. It was perfect. The coffee was really good too.The service was a little slow but they were busy. The atmosphere was lively. The decor was beautifully done in a historic setting that takes you back in time. The room upstairs by the restrooms is a must see as well. Some great photo ops here.Of course we had to try the Bananas Foster since it was birthed here. Our server prepared it at our table with the story of its origin.I love the professional staff from the three calls confirming our reservations, to the servers and food runners. Yes we will be back.Vegetarian options: Avocado toast, bananas foster seafood Gumbo, potatoes, fruit bowl…Dietary restrictions: I don’t eat meat and there were options.

Brennan's is one of those classics that you must go too while in New Orleans. I went for Breakfast, which was very good. Had the turtle soup, which is a nice start and the Duck Hash. I would highly recommend it. The bartenders were very nice and enjoyable to talk too if you're sitting there.

Ok ... not exactly sure where to start, but I'll just jump in. From the second that you walk in the door, you realize this is going to be a first class experience. Absolutely nothing fast food here ... the service is incredible. Our server, Lynika, was absolutely top notch. The dishes were served in a very timely manner, but you never felt rushed, just a smooth transition from start to finish. The entire thing is managed by AJ McAlear. He was constantly moving about the dining room and checking on each guest. Personally, I am happy to see a fabulous oasis in a crazy world. I give 5 ?.
