Chicken Parmesan was good but truffle fries was soft and wasn’t crispy enough. Friendly service

I’ve fallen in love w| this restaurant/bar!!Perfectly located in the Marigny which isn’t in the hustle and bustle of the city; However, not too far away at all. I love the feel of the place from the first time I walked in. Quaint but cute! Service was superb and everyone so welcoming.I ordered the Chicken Parm— so good and such a big portion which was a plus! Drinks were flawlessly flawless and very tasteful.Again this has truly become one of my favorites!!

We went here to celebrate my dads 88th birthday and they were so welcoming and helpful getting us inside and seated.The food was delicious! I had the tuna tartare, salad, and mussels which were all excellent. I was also able to taste the fried frog legs, which was a first for me, and all I can say is, yum!Loved the decor and the general vibe, it has a large, well-stocked bar so is also the kind of place you can pop into for drinks only.Would absolutely return on my next visit to New Orleans.Wheelchair accessibility: They have a removable ramp to get in and it is spacious enough to easily navigate and accommodate a wheelchair at the dining table.

We made a 5:30pm reservation for our Wednesday night dinner. We didn't want to risk not being able to eat here as our last meal in the city. I wish I was more hungry at the time, so I could've had more than a salad. Lol But, boy, was that salad delicious! It was seasonal and had pears, pecans, and a sherry vinaigrette. My drink was off of the Happy Hour menu(5-7pm, $6 martini) and was perfect. My husband was over the moon happy with their Chicken Parmesan. The portion was generous, and the flavors were spot on! We couldn't have been happier, so a big thank you to the whole staff. ???

Not taking “walk-ins” on a Saturday night when there are empty spots at the bar and empty tables at 8pm. This isn’t a salon it’s a bar/restaurant, my money will go elsewhere.

It just ain’t what it used to be. This has been a favorite of ours for years. Unfortunately, not anymore.Pork shoulder entree was watery, tasteless and poorly prepared. The dish was mostly a giant gelatinous piece of pork fat with no meat. Gross, uneatable.The chicken parm, which is usually good, was not. The chicken tasted freezer burnt or cooked wrong. It had a hard chewy texture that tasted nothing like chicken. This dish used to be so good.The drinks were abysmal. Like there was no care given. Watered down and poorly prepared.Service was poor. Forgotten orders, long stretches no one checking in, one glass of water through the entire meal lol.So sad to see a good place drop off.

Hidden GemI was recommended to try here by a friend and also TikTok posts. Corner bar/restaurant in the Bywater /Marigny are of New Orleans. Chef inspired food and cocktails. Recommend happy hour but would also love to come back for a dinner (when we allow ourselves NOT to get stuffed full with apps )All of the apps in my pictures were beyond Devine! I highly recommend this spot and PLEASE get all of the things in my pictures.

The Windowsill cocktail was AMAZING! I don’t normally go for a Jammy Sweeter drink but this was FANTASTIC. This is a good neighborhood spot.

Yesterday friends and I went to the Franklin for Happy Hour and dinner. The staff were so accommodating. We didn’t have reservations and were initially told it would be a 2 hour wait but they would see what they could do to seat us sooner. My friends and I began looking for alternative places to go but shortly after we were advised they had a no show and they would give us their reservation. So happy we didn’t leave because I enjoyed everything from the drinks to the food. The Marigny daiquiri is really good. I enjoyed the Hamachi crostini and garlic parmesan fries but star of the show was most definitely the chicken parmesan. The breading on the chicken was delicious and the chicken was HUGE. I definitely was not able to finish my dish. I definitely will be returning and while I would like to try other items on the menu I have a feeling I’ll be getting the chicken parm again

Hey franklin- if your Google listing says you close @ 10pm and I get there @ 9:19pm and the hostess says the kitchen is closed you have lost a customer in many ways. Such a pet peeve.

This place has my favorite happy hour. They don't skimp on the drinks and the food is great!Parking: Sometimes you have to park a couple blocks away.Wheelchair accessibility: Not wheelchair accessible but they do have a ramp they can put out for you. Personally I don't like the ramp, it feels too steep.
