I've always been a foodie. Growing up, some of my favorite memories were with my dad, who believed the best way to spend time together was trying new restaurants over great food and even better conversation. He also taught me to appreciate the passion, hard work, and hospitality behind every great restaurant. To me, Broussard's is the gold standard. The turtle soup is a must, and the Ramos Gin Fizz is as classic as it gets. Both are exceptional and part of what keeps me coming back. What truly makes Broussard's special, though, is the hospitality. Every visit feels warm, welcoming, and effortless. The staff genuinely cares about creating a memorable experience. I always look forward to my next visit. Five stars. Every time. read more

This was the worst restaurant experience I've had in New Orleans. Our drinks took over 20 minutes to arrive, and our entrées were delayed nearly 45 minutes. To make matters worse, two tables that were seated after us received their food before we did. The staff seemed poorly trained, and there was a clear lack of attention and service awareness toward guests. Tonight was my first visit here, and it will definitely be my last. Good luck to the owners and management. read more

Wow!!! This was the best meal experience of our entire trip to New Orleans. Everyone was so welcoming and on top of things. The restaurant is beautiful and the food was fantastic! We were there for breakfast Saturday morning. It was a great experience in every way. It made up for a not so good meal experience at a different restaurant the night before. I would definitely recommend Broussard's over any other restaurant in New Orleans and I've been to almost all of them. read more

We came in 2018 and ate here for Thanksgiving it's an amazing and incredible place and the everything about this place was amazing back then in 2018 We are back in New Orleans and looked and it's still open. Haven't ate there in this trip but it was so memorable and incredible that this place is still open after COVID. This says something about this place read more

Stopped in here for brunch. What a nice place. We were in seated right away outside. The weather was perfect. Our server was Jaitlynn, she was amazing and very tentative. We had the bottomless mimosas($22/pp) we had the choice of many different juices. We had the Croque madam, big portion and it was delicious. Also ordered the short rib and eggs, meat was so tender, very good! There was a 3 man band and they were good. Nice ambiance. read more

This restaurant's Jazz Brunch was recommended to me by a foodie friend and I'm so glad it was my first dining experience in New Orleans! I arrived and promptly greeted and seated. I could not get over how beautiful and charming the ambiance was. The staff really made me feel welcome and they gave stellar service. Drinking seems to be encouraged in this city. I only ordered one drink (the Dorothy Lamour, yum!) and when I finished, I was given a complimentary glass of champagne when I didn't order another drink. The Jazz Band started tuning up and playing while I waited for my food to arrive. They are a vibe. They went table to table asking what you'd like to hear. I couldn't stop smiling when they played for me. The Oysters Broussard and Deviled Eggs cane to my table and they were both very delicious! The oysters were the biggest and juiciest that I had my throughout my whole trip. For my entree, I was choosing between Shrimp n Grits and the Blue Crab Sardou. I ordered the Blue Crab Sardou against my server's suggestion... LISTEN TO YOUR SERVER'S SUGGESTIONS! I didn't enjoy the dish I chose and was asked if I wanted something else. I felt so silly I just kept it and faced the consequences. I'm really grateful for the experience at Broussard's especially as my first experience to New Orleans dining. I think about this place often since September. Can't wait to go back on my next trip. Currently, Jazz Brunch is Friday-Sunday 10am-3pm read more

Great food and bottomless mimosas?! Sign me up! In town for a football game, we were recommended the jazzy brunch for a pre game meal, and now I will be recommending to anyone who will listen! 4 entrees, the breakfast breads starter and countless bottles of champagne later, our party left stuffed and ready to watch some football! Bottomless drinks , can sometimes equate to bottom tier food/ service but that is not the case here! Our server was attentive, and the food was top tier! read more

I brought my best friend here for her birthday on Sunday, 4/26/26. Our other friend had recommended this place. We arrived 30mins late on our brunch reservation and they still accepted us. Upon entry the restaurant is beautifully fancy decorated. Chandeliers in each room along with elegant mirrors & drapes. The host was very polite then we were seated. Our waiter came & introduced himself. We started with the bottomless mimosas. Surprisingly the 3 men band comes over & they sung Happy Birthday to the Birthday girl. Then they sang Louis Armstrong "What a Wonderful World." This was one epic moment. The GM walked over & he introduced himself as David. He was a very nice person. He asked if everything was okay & we responded with a big YES.... We felt welcomed upon arrival and special. We discussed the menu changes & we were told to embrace the new options. We ordered the Oysters Broussard which we had tried at the FQ fest. They were to die for. They come seasoned deeply fried on a bed of cream of Spinach. For our entrees we had our minds set on the ribeye steak & eggs but it wasn't available. The waiter recommended the short rib with eggs. The three of us ordered it as it comes. My friend asked for a side salad & I asked for a side of cream of spinach. Best decision ever because everything that came out was perfect. The oysters were delicious & the short ribs were tender & juicy. The GM noticed how excited we were that he added to our experience with complimentary Lagniappe. There was a bottle of champagne sent to our table & just when we thought that was all, we each received a complimentary dessert. This place exceeded our expectations & it has resurrected our faith in fine dining experiences. We will definitely dine here again for any special occasion. Our bill was $220 ( including 3 people with 3 bottomless mimosas) not including the tip but it was worth it! They truly are the Fine Dining Experience! read more

We got last-minute reservations on a Friday around 2 p.m., and our friend who booked it said this was the only spot available, which was perfect for brunch after our alligator tour. It was pretty odd because when we arrived, no one was around--I would've thought it would be bustling, but maybe that doesn't happen until later in the day or earlier in the morning? The patio was quite beautiful, but it was way too hot and humid to sit outside comfortably. Although there were a few tables, it felt like we had the place to ourselves, which meant better service, better food, and a wonderful jazz ensemble playing just for my sister--perfect for her bachelorette celebration. We started with and shared the oysters Broussard's. I ordered the duck and alligator sausage gumbo with a side of grits, while a few of the girls had the Josephine, one went for the short ribs, and another had the pork belly benedict. The food was incredible--super flavorful, and we all ate everything--no leftovers, which says a lot, right?! Our server Lionel was fantastic and happy to take pictures of us. Overall, a wonderful spot worth visiting, and we didn't have to wait! read more

Broussard's was a very interesting experience. It's a very fancy-looking restaurant, and it's not a walk-in, walk-out situation. We were a large group (13) and so of course we had reservations. The food looked very delicious, but at this point, I didn't want to order anything. They had bottomless mimosas ($22.00) and a few (expensive) appetizers. See the image of the menu below for more options if you're wondering what they have. I did LOVE the live music. The band was incredible, and they came up to our table playing the songs we requested. Absolutely loved them! I would also like to give a shoutout to Carnessa, our waitress, who was very nice and dealt with my shenanigans of dealing with splitting our bill. We were 13 girls, and I didn't eat anything, so the bill was for 12 girls. So we split the table in half and did it on two credit cards. Their limit is 4 credit cards, so I thought I was smart about it. read more

Broussard's is one of those French Quarter gems that quietly delivers a standout experience -- especially if you catch their happy hour. The setting is elegant without being stuffy, and the courtyard is pure New Orleans magic. I came for the cocktails, but I stayed for the turtle soup -- rich, savory, and perfectly spiced with just the right hint of sherry. Honestly one of the best bowls I've had in the city. If you're on the fence, don't be -- get the soup. Happy hour here is a low-key delight. Classic drinks, well-made, at very reasonable prices in a city that can get touristy fast. It's the kind of place you end up lingering longer than planned -- and leaving full, happy, and a little more refined. Great service, beautiful atmosphere, and flavors that remind you why New Orleans is a food town first. Broussard's isn't loud about it, but it definitely belongs on your list. read more

We were so pleased to be able to walk in on Easter Sunday to be seated at a bar table. There were four of us, and we were just absolutely delighted with our experience. The place itself is beautiful - clean and crisp with small areas for intimate seating and a large courtyard full of lovely people with beautiful Easter outfits. Staff was so wonderful and made sure we were taken care of. We started with the delicious deviled eggs, and oh my, they had a flavor to them that makes them stand out. Shrimp and grits with the perfect flavor and consistency, poached eggs, a redfish meal, and my chicken and waffles were all just wonderful. A couple at the table enjoyed bottomless mimosas (they provide a full glass of bubbles and keep them flowing, you control the juice in them), and a couple of us ordered bloody marys. They were the perfect mix of vodka and tomato - not too much to overpower the flavors. We were allowed to just be at our own pace, and a sweet woman that we called our "Champagne Fairy" appears with a gift for one of our guests - his own complimentary glass. Later, we were telling some others where we landed for brunch, and they got so excited saying it's their go-to as well. I will 100% return! read more

Went to Broussard's during Fest (Quarter Fest) for brunch and didn't even realize it was a jazz brunch, but what a vibe! It was a little loud, but honestly, it didn't take away from the experience at all. Our waiter, Mr. Greer, was spectacular. We never saw the bottom of our champagne glasses, and he made sure we were taken care of from start to finish. I had the short rib and eggs...so good! What I really love about Broussard's is the ambience. It's a stunning French Quarter spot with that classic charm, and the prices are surprisingly reasonable. Overall, an awesome experience.

Carnessia was the best server we had in New Orleans... please request her, you will not regret it. Place is a little chilly on the inside, bring a wrap to cover yourself, would much rather be cold than . One of the quietest places for dinner I experience in NOLA, a lot of places are fun and loud, I guess it depends on the people, but it was nice we could converse without raising our voices in a full restaurant. Food was great, Brussel sprouts were sweet and tangy but crunchy... huge portion! Would recommend 100% read more

I chose Broussard's to celebrate my mom's retirement with a few of her closest friends. The service was top notch and they went above and beyond to accommodate our group. Our server, Monique was a true pleasure. She was attentive, knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. The greeter at the door helped so much as well. We enjoyed the oyster appetizers, bubbles, mocktails, and shrimp and grits. I had the Bronzed Redfish and it did not disappoint. The fish was prepared perfectly, the sauce was amazing, and the crabmeat was plentiful. It was probably the most delicious redfish I've had in a while. In addition, the jazz trio added to the lovely ambiance of the restaurant. I couldn't have chosen a better brunch. read more

Broussard's left such an impression when I first came in 2016, I knew I had to come back this visit. We came for a late brunch and it was perfect. We were warmly greeted when we came inside from the heat. Immediately ordered the Brandy Milk Punch which never disappoints. I ordered the BBQ shrimp and grits and a side of fried green tomatoes. Our waiter was so kind and friendly. There was a Jazz trio (saxophonist, banjo, and bass player.) They gave us our own private performance as they did at each individual table and then posted up to play for everyone in the dining room. As always, Broussard's does not disappoint and was the perfect way to enjoy a New Orleans meal. read more

We went to Broussard's to celebrate the 30th birthday of my nephew. The entire experience was over the top! The manager visited our table multiple times and shared insight into the history of the restaurant. After the main meal, he delivered two desserts of which one wasn't on the menu. The staff was very attentive and friendly. The food was the star of the evening! We started with pork belly appetizer that melted in your mouth. We ordered the Bronzed Redfish, which was tender and tasty; Sea Scallops, which were exquisite and sitting in a delicious sauce; Blackened Yellowfin Tuna, which was cooked to perfection! Every dish was mouth-watering and scrumptious. We shared this meal last week and we continue to comment on how it was a luxurious evening. If you visit, you will have experienced a magical celebration! read more

I went here with my boyfriend on a Saturday morning and we had a reservation for 10:00am. We were greeted when we entered and were led to our table shortly thereafter. I believe that a reservation is needed, because around 11:30am the restaurant had filled up quickly. We were greeted by our server quickly and we ended up ordering bottomless mimosas and to start the bread tray and deviled eggs. For the bottomless mimosas, you have a choice of juice, and we went with pineapple juice. You put the amount of juice that you would like after the server pours and we were lucky that our server had a heavy pour, lol. I tried each of the breads that were brought to us, and I really liked the croissant and I believe it was cinnamon bread. I also really liked the deviled eggs. We both order the chicken and waffles. I am not that familiar with what this dish should taste like so I really cannot offer a comparison or know what this dish should truly taste like. However, for me, the chicken was very moist, but almost too much so when combined with the syrup and then the waffle itself. It wasn't bad per se, but the texture just wasn't for me. During our meal, the server did check on us a few times and as I mentioned before, it did get busier as our brunch went on, and there were a few larger tables that our server had been assigned to, so given these factors, I feel like service was pretty good. Also, there was a jazz trio that performed throughout the restaurant for brunch. They greeted my boyfriend and I and sang happy birthday to me since I went there for my birthday, and then another song that my boyfriend requested. I loved the ambience of the venue, and feel that it was a fair pick for brunch. I wouldn't be opposed to going here again. read more

Kicked off my birthday "weekend" with a Moet and Chandon dinner at Broussards. The service was superb and the food was great. My only complaint is the acoustics in the room we were in weren't great and once all the guest arrived it was difficult to have a conversation with the person sitting next to you. I loved every course from the hor d'oeurves to the dessert. It was hard to pick a favorite course because I enjoyed everything but I think the ahi tuna with ratatouille was the winner of the night! I can't wait to attend another event or even bottomless brunch here! read more

Broussards... Broussards.. YUM! I literally haven't been here since I was a kid and took my fiance here for her 30th birthday and they really spoiled us. We came during the jazz brunch and they sang her quite a few songs for her birthday! The ambiance and service were both very good. The chicken and waffles was my personally fav between the two dishes we got, but that does not mean the omelet isn't good- cause it sure was!! But mind you, it was HUGE! 2 people could definitely eat off this dish. We also did bottomless mimosas for $20 each, and out glasses were always full and we were sent off with a cup to go. Overall, I'll definitely be recommending Broussards for Breakfast/Brunch going forward. Great New Orleans experience. read more

Went here with a group of about 12 with a reservation. We were disappointed their outside was closed even though it was a beautiful night..we went out to take pictures and admire the setting only to be ushered back inside. Perhaps they didnt have the staff to cover a party outside, but they didn't seem to be very busy inside either. Both the food and the service was just so-so. I would not order the scallops again however the salad & appetizers we ordered were all good. read more

We have a fantastic experience at broussard's on New Year's Eve! It is one of the best dinners we have ever had! Every single recommendation from the server hit the spot and was perfect. My biggest concern was the 15-minute wait beyond our reservation time. We started off with the brussel sprouts, which but crispy, flavorful, and just overall delicious! The tagliatelle with mushrooms had just enough pasta to make my belly happy before the main course. It was a little dry. The main redfish entree was soft and well seasoned. The crab meat on top was a nice pairing, And crispy broccolini was basic, but still good. This dish could have had a little bit more flavor overall, but given the fine dining experience, it was up to par. The bread pudding dessert is a must-have! I was seriously considering a few different options, including the flourless chocolate cake, but this bread pudding is one of the best I've ever had! To top it off, the server gave us an extra glass of wine on the house, and that was just very special! The serving staff worked really hard , while they were clearly understaffed, but they had a positive attitude, and gave fantastic service and recommendations. read more

Sorry guys. The food was just awful. Oysters were TINY, tasted FISHY and were overstuffed with bitter parmesan cheese. I don't think they were fresh, and they certainly weren't N.O. quality oysters. The pork belly was dry and very chewy. We stopped trying to eat it The BBQ shrimp does NOT come in a roux sauce, as every other BBQ shrimp I have had everywhere in N.O., but with just some commercial tasting BBQ sauce put on top. Thats all we chose to order and will not go back Its pretty, and the service is excellent. However, the food.... ugh read more

I love this place. Comfy and cozy, but nice soft jazz music. And the food............ OH MY GOD!!!!!!! Had the bread basket, Croque Madame and Blue Crab Sardou.

The different types of bread was great with coffee. read more

As always a great brunch menu with live music. Unfortunately management has changed the service by cutting out a team member. Our server was overwhelmed but clearly not her fault.
