I like the rooftop balcony here, especially on parade days. Perfect spot to chill out. Great place to grab a beer and a crab cake. The crawfish mac and cheese is a great dish and bar service is normally speedy. Not a fan of the mixed drinks here, but, the bartenders are fun and overall it's an enjoyable space! read more

We got in late and this was one of the only places on Bourbon St. that was still serving food. It wasn't a place on our radar but food was good and we got to sit on the balcony and enjoy the view overlooking bourbon st. A very memorable and pleasant experience read more

While in town I had a taste for pasta and this restaurant had a pasta dish on their menu that I interested me. I got the Lemon Grilled Chicken pasta and it was served with Alfredo sauce. While the service was good the food was disappointing. There was not much pasta and the little that was in the plate was swimming in the sauce and was a little too salty. The grilled chicken was just ok Just because I had a disappointing experience doesn't mean you will. This is a spot in Bourbon with two levels and terrace seating. Give it a try read more

We stopped in on Easter after the Gay Easter Parade and we expected everything on Bourbon to be packed but Cornet was a nice reprieve from the chaos. Terri was our bartender and she was excellent. We ordered a couple basic drinks and then decided we needed a snack to hold us over while we decided what to do with the rest of the night. We ordered the Crab Cakes which come with Fried Green Tomatoes so 2 of my favorite dishes in one was PERFECT! They were so good! I am really glad we stopped in! read more

Red beans and rice is amazing! I've never had it and I am so glad I did. Staff is sweet, no complaints. Reasonable price. I would come here again for this. read more

Cornet - Red Beans and Rice - Cocktail Bars Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

We were looking for a quick bite to eat after Caroling in Jackson Square near Christmas; our first REAL dinner of our trip in NOLA (we went to waffle house the night before). We were seated right away and Mon'ey, our server, was very good. It was too cold to sit outside on the balcony, but we did sit upstairs with the doors open and that was nice. They had plenty of TVs showing all the football games, if you're looking for that sort of thing. The food and drinks didn't WOW us, but weren't bad either... just okay, and expensive for what it was -- but that's to be expected on Bourbon St. Not many vegetarian offerings on the menu -- not uncommon in NOLA but i always appreciate when a restaurant has options and this place didn't have many. Pasta primavera and mashed potatoes were pretty much the only things my boyfriend could order. read more

Best bloody mary I've had yet. No wonder these guys have won awards for that beauty. There liquor is infused and they make their mix from scratch. So you can tell the difference. I enjoyed that one and their Bluberry Hill I believe it was called. This is also one where they infuse the vodka with fruit and you can see these jars sitting in the middle of the bar in all their yummy goodness just soaking up all that delicious fresh fruit. So you can't resist. Speaking of the food, I tried the fried alligator and it was a great texture. If you want it on the less chewy more crunchy side ask them to bake it well done and it comes out perfect. I had Felicity and she was very attentive and made sure to check on me and all people at the bar and give suggestions on things to do. This place has a classy laid back atmosphere. There is another little club attached you can get to through a door behind the bar. So that's intriguing. I enjoyed the food, service and vibe here. read more

Cornet - Fried alligator was delicious and cooked a little longer so it wasn't chewy. Great texture! - Cocktail Bars Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

Very very bad food. We had the shrimp po'boys... aweful. Flavorless, old crumbly bread, no tomato as it says in the description ... wish we never came here read more

Super cute looking on the outside... sadly the food did not live up to the atmosphere. This was the most bland shrimp PO boy I've ever had. There was no sauce whatsoever on it and it was so dry. Trust me, don't get the shrimp PO boy... read more

Came here after exploring Bourbon Street; seeing all the street performers and partiers really gave me an appetite! We were originally going to try Luke, but the wait was long and we didn't have much time in NOLA as we were getting on a cruise ship the following morning. Located on the intersection of Bourbon and St. Peter, Cornet serves Cajun/Creole yummies in a bar setting. There are tall tables and chairs that line the window for easy people watching, and stairs that lead to a balcony for second-level people watching. We were seated right away and ordered the following: Flambeaux fries Tour of New Orleans Cajun Platter Blueberry Hill Most of the food we ordered was flavorful and filling! I especially liked the catfish in my Cajun platter since it was perfectly fried and seasoned well. I don't know if it's just me, but the red beans and rice seemed bland and since the jambalaya was swimming in it, it kind of made the jambalaya bland as well. Oh well... the Blueberry Hill drink was great (from what I tasted before I spilled it all over myself :-) Overall good service, and pretty good food. Only wished I didn't end up all stick from my drink spilling over me! read more

Check this out... we were on Bourbon Street passing this restaurant when a employee was outside asking people to check out the restaurant. We were seated immediately and the food was delicious. I had the catfish which was seasoned well and the drink was great. I would definitely recommend this place! Great customer service from our server, AJ. He was super knowledgeable and made wonderful recommendations. read more

We stopped in here to watch the championship game of the Big Ten Tournament. There are several TVs all over the place. However, the bartender can't/isn't allowed to change the TVs because "that's all she would be doing instead of serving customers." Didn't seem to be an issue at any other sports bar in town, but OK. We still took over the bar and watched the game. Besides the strange TV policy, the bartenders were fantastic, very personable and friendly. Very cool to sit in a bar on Bourbon Street and watch Purdue win the Big Ten Tournament. Go Boilers! read more

Walking down bourbon street just looking to try a drink as we walk. We were approached by a gentleman who told us they had the best food on the street. So of course we stopped in to see if he was correct. I will give him his props they do have good food and strong drinks. I e say on the roof and people watched while we ate and drank. Tried a few appetizers and so I will say the fried alligator is a winner. I am allergic to shell fish but i was told the crab cakes are also pretty darn good. It's a must you stop by the next time you're walking down the strip. read more

Like most tourists we wandered around until really hungry and this was one of the first places we saw. We sat upstairs in the balcony that over looks the street. The server was awesome he took time to explain a lot of NOLA history and some commonly mispronounced words. I really appreciated that. He was great with my kids also. I got a mixed drink and a po' boy. It was great, no complaints. My wife's food was also good and the kids mac and cheese was the best ive ever had. I don't know when we will be back to NOLA. But we will be back and I will be sure to spread the word. I wish I could remember the servers name to give him a personal shout out. Thanks! read more

We checked out this place as we were bar hopping and it was alright! We sat down at the bar and the bartender was also just okay. Just doing her job. We got some drinks and ordered the crab cakes and the gumbo. The crab cakes were alright. They were pretty fishy and mushy. The sauce that was over them was okay. The gumbo was just okay too. Nothing to rave about. Just a bit pricey for what it is! The place itself was pretty cool though! read more

Ideal location in the heart of everything. The service here offers dining at the bar and/or table seating for you and your party. When I arrived we chose to sit at the bar which had maybe 3 people. The waitress was pretty good. At somepoint it definitely got pretty busy for one waitress to cover. This was literally a Monday mid day so who knew the crowd would jump so fast. The drinks we selected was priced pretty good for a average mixed drink. The food selection to me wasn't that spectacular I opted to get a spicy chicken sandwich with fries which was pretty good. We sat in for a while all while mingling with the bartender and patrons. I did love the fact the place was heated since this day was practically cold. This help make the experience a little better. The seats were nice and comfy. The bar was stocked and clean without any unnecessary trash even though the crowd kept growing the staff keep everything in tact which I appreciated. read more

Great sports watching bar in the heart of Bourbon Street! Balcony dining in a historic building with friendly staff!

I am a local, but it was my first time at this bar. A friend of mine from Miami was visiting me, so we decided to go on a cocktail tour with Haunted History Tours. I had bacon infused Bloody Mary, which was delicious! We walked into a room in the second floor in the back, where we were told the story of a woman named Mary and her kids, how they burned down in this house. And she is still haunting the bar at the present time. The best tour guide I've ever met Bobby also told us how Mary almost choked him on one of his tours. I am not sure how much of it was true , but the story gave me chills. We also heard an interesting story if Louis Armstrong. This place was the starting point of his careers, hence the name of the bar - Cornet. I will definitely be back to try their food. read more

Jambalaya was great. It was cool to be able to eat up on the balcony and looked down on the street while eating.

The patio was great. The food was meh. The hostess was great. The server was ok. We tried burgers, jambalaya and chips and salsa. The jambalaya had huge chunks of chicken that were dry. The burgers were fine. The blueberry drink was great. We thought the cups were fun. You go here for the view on the balcony. read more

Cornet - Red beans and rice with the shrimp and fish - Cocktail Bars Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

Everyone on staff was so nice except our waitress Marissa. I am unsure of how she has a job, let alone a job as a server. It took over 15 min to even be acknowledged and 20 more to receive a hot beer to which she goes oh are they warm.....which then took another 20 minutes to receive a draft beer which arrived about the time we were taking our last bite. Asked for the check and she brought it back and threw it on the table. To preserve the cool ambience of this bar, I highly recommend getting rid of her because everyone else who had a different server seemed to have a much better experience. read more

All I can say is Wow for this to be a sports bar / restaurant it did not disappoint. We had plan to go to Mondays but due to rain and then being an outside restaurant that didn't go to plan. The older gentleman outside of this establishment was letting ppl know about this gem, and he did a good job. We ended up coming back due to not really feeling the ambiance in the gumbo shop. It was a good decision we got the chicken gumbo and chicken tender platter they were cooked to perfection and the gumbo was so tasty and saucy. I will definitely be back and shoutout to Toya how was our waitress. She was sweet and the blueberry drink was tasty. Thanks again my bday out here was a success. I will definitely be back to NO. read more

This place is great fast service, quality food, and customer service is on point.

Happy to know bars are still operating in this area! Tonight we hit Bourbon street and decided to get drinks. I was happy that this bar is allowing you to order just drinks without food. Drinks were a little watered down but I had a few so it caught up to me. Our server Dominique was very nice and on time with drinks/refills. She was very kind and let us know that it was last calls for drinks for the upper deck. Parking sucks if you're driving, of course it is downtown so you will pay to park. Luckily, my Airbnb was just moments away! Restaurant was cleaned, however, when approaching the bathroom you could smell the urine from the men's bathroom. It was urine on the floor of the bathroom but once again, majority of people were there drinks. Overall I was satisfied with my customer service. read more

The young man promoting the menu for this place pulled us in off Bourbon. The menu promised traditional New Orleans cuisine plus chicken fingers for the picky eater in the crowd. We were seated quickly. I want to say that our service (we sat upstairs) was wonderful! She was so nice, attentive, quick, and she was juggling the bar plus tables. Food is priced about how you would expect. Our party of 6 ordered alligator bites for an appetizer - they were so small for $14. I don't think they were even bites - maybe pinches. I ordered the Cajun platter and it was awesome. Great portion size and taste. The pasta was not as pictured on the menu, though. Way smaller portions for the menu price. Overall it was an OK experience! The server def made our night what it was and after traveling all day & walking around a while we were just happy to have some food! read more
