    Mousaka
    Gabriel N.

    Humble establishment with exquisite Greek cuisine. Wait staff is courteous and knowledgeable. A mousaka to die for, excellent lamb and delightful desserts. They even pay attention to the side salads - so delicious. Come hungry. Leave satisfied.

    Acropolis salad
    Tami D.

    I came here for the prix fixe menu and left having only ordered the soup and salad. I've since returned four times and can't seem to get past the soup and salad, it's that good! I recommend the 4 onion soup which is an interesting lightly creamy onion broth topped with a puff pastry crust. The puff pastry mixes with the broth and makes for a really filling bowl of soup. For the salad, I get the Acropolis salad with grilled shrimp. The salad comes with Romaine lettuce, Roma tomato, blue cheese, fresh cucumber, onion, Kalamata olive, and bacon with a side of balsamic vinaigrette. I've always had great service but this place is packed on Friday and Saturday night so you may have to wait for a table. Acropolis has a real Metairie vibe. It's locals serving locals and I like it!

    Moussaka with Small Caesar Salad & Pita Bread
    Maegan B.

    Delicious food! Got the appetizer sampler, mousaka and baklava and all were amazing! The entree came with a side Caesar salad which was also good. The wait staff were very personable and patient. It's a small little quaint place but offers so much. People with me got a gyro salad, pistachio (prob spelled that wrong but it's the mousaka with noodles) and one got the pork tenderloin wrap. Not crazy about to the wrap but everything was very good. We got the Luku balls and I wasn't crazy about that. Overall it was all great food! We spent $100 on the sampler, three entrees and two desserts. Not bad!

    Daily specials

    This is a quaint nice restaurant. Very unsuspecting from the outside, but as soon as you walk inside, you see, smell and feel the Greek authenticity down to the decor. I was the second person through the door for the dinner hours opening so only two people working the dining area. Both were very pleasant and helpful. I was mad at myself for not looking closely at the daily specials. Ugh...all week in NOLA I was jonesing for red snapper / red fish. I didn't even look at the specials because per the Greek ambiance, I wanted gyro meat...well, as you will see from my fotos, one of their specials the night I dropped in was Greek style pan sautéed red fish. I can't wait to return, I plan to scour the specials of the day. Lol Please don't forget to smash the like button, and thank you..

    If you know me, you know I'm ALWAYS open to try something NEW!!!…read more And Bambu fit the bill for THE NEW. Stopped in because I saw the sign high up in the air, way to go advertising team. Walking in I was greeted with fresh smells & warm smiles. This was a new place for me, so of course, I am taking in all the sights, from the GET CHE MIND RIGHT backdrop, to the wall menus, to the vending machines & all the other signage that provide helpful suggestions. I was shocked to learn of drinks made with kidney beans was on the menu. The kidney beans are said to be sweet. I promised to try it, as it's quite hard to fathom kidney beans would be sweet. That will be my drink of choice next time. But this time, I tried a more fruity drink and It was quite pleasing to me. There was ice cream at the very top and the cashier suggested that I hurry and eat that before it melted I did what she said, and I had two treats in one drink. The ice cream and then the gummy's at the very bottom. It was like eating gummy bears or gummy worms with a dessert drink. Every mouthful was chewy and flavorful. To be noted, there are non-dairy options as well. Don't get scared. So many items to choose from, dessert drinks & banh-mi sandwiches, mango this, kidney beans that... with so many items on the menu that just means I have to return and try more of the concoctions. Shared parking lot. But it doesn't look like most people come and stay alone while. Although there are tables inside where you can sit and maybe do some computer work or read a book the average Joe picks up their drink and goes their way.

I'd get it again. I noticed something about most of the snowball places around...they all use the snow wizard ice machine. But the crazy thing is, all of their ice isn't the same. This place figured ice out!! SO SOFT! Only downside and it's not their fault, it's in a rather busy strip so if you can't find parking out front...Beware McDonald's parking across the street. They tow as if they need all those parking spaces...I don't think I've ever seen a full McDonald's parking lot in life. Lol Anyway, 10/10 and cool points for entertaining my little chatterbox baby.

From the cute aesthetic to the amazing owner and staff, this place deserves wayyyy more hype. I love matcha and I've found a lot of places' matcha are too thin or not flavored enough. The matchas I've had at Nectar+Ice (banana bread & baklava) are so creamy and delicious! They also have snoballs, lattes and affogato so everyone can enjoy them. The owner was very helpful and also let me sample the weekly soft serve special which was also yummy. The only reason it's not a perfect 10 is the small space (can get a bit crowded during a rush) and its hours are only from Wed-Sat.

    This family-owned business has been a New Orleans institution since 1905. In fact, its name is…read morestill imprinted in the sidewalk tiles of its former location at 617 Ursulines. The establishment began as an ice cream parlor selling handmade gelato but has since expanded to include pastries, desserts, espresso, cappuccinos, & lattes. The shop embodies the old-world charm of Sicily, and everything is authentically produced in small batches from high-quality local ingredients. The first gelato flavor that founder Angelo Brocato first produced & sold was Torroncino - a vanilla-based gelato with cinnamon & ground almonds. It's still served in their shop today. Locals love their handmade gelato, Italian ices, & desserts - as do I. My favs are the cannoli and signature Italian pastries. I'm also a big fan of the Spumoni, which is served in slices (as it should be). Sadly, Angelo Brocato III passed on July 22nd at the age of 85. His burial was private but the locals gathered for a big celebration to honor his life and the joy he brought to them over the years.

Try and support local shops, Angelo was a perfect night cap to dinner. About 15 minutes away from Bourbon St, they also have locations in the airport too if you need your Italian dessert fix!
