    We wandered into this place around the park. AMAZING. Bartender was knowledgeable, friendly and just really cool. I had a Bellini that used a liquor syrup. My husband had an espresso martini. The oysters were so good. We ordered two of each and then more. The Fois Gras with rhubarb... chefs kiss. Super cool vibe. Loved it.

    We stopped into Fives for their happy hour and could not have been happier. The bar tenders were kind and attentive, despite the rush. The ambiance in the French quarter is unbeatable. The oysters were some of the best I've ever had and reasonably priced and the cocktails were divine. I would definitely recommend as an oyster and cocktail bar to anyone!

    Cool spot! Such a cool and cozy space with good vibes. Service was fast and friendly. Stopped in to grab a drink while waiting out traffic on a Friday night and ended up trying a couple dishes. How could I pass up an opportunity when the menu had such amazing offerings. I ordered the Gulf Shrimp Cocktail and the Beef Tartare. Both were excellent. The shrimp did have a different texture than I've had before; almost fluffy for lack of a better term. The yolk atop the tartare was icing on the proverbial cake. The wine pours were generous which is always welcomed and appreciated. I would definitely go back with my husband the next time we're in NOLA. Kudos!!

    Recommended by our daughter - she was not wrong. Bone marrow was great- drinks great service 10 out of 10! Great place to get some great food in a food city!

    We went back a year later (twice) and we still love Fives. The bartenders are so friendly and make excellent cocktails. I do not eat raw oysters but they had a wide variety, and many people ordered and seemed to be enjoying them. I tried a gin fizz for the first time and it's one of the best cocktails I've ever had. We will continue to visit when in NOLA.

    If I was a local, Fives Bar would be my spot. This was easily one of the best meals I've had in the last year. The vibes were immaculate - it was cozy, warm, and inviting. Staff was super friendly and spent time with our table chatting and sharing other local recommendations. Despite their professionalism, you felt like you were home with friends. I got the impression that everyone working there loves the place and really cares about what they're doing. I loved the approach they took with the menu - fresh, curated, and flavorful. The cocktails were fantastic, and the food was next level. The bread on its own makes it worth going. We loved everything we got. I can't wait to come back!

    Woah! Go try this spot and get all of the oysters! They are all phenomenal! Try them all! Service is great! The staff is helpful but it's busy so be patient with them! Great things take time. Love the ambiance. Great spot right off of a Main Street!

    This is by far my favorite bar on my trip to NOLA. loved the intimate setting with the actual bar taking center stage with a few small tables scattered around. Lively but able hold conversations. The bartenders are incredible! Very knowledgeable and creative with the drinks menu. We tried a few different liquors as they explained some drink creations to us. The food was delicious. Had the small gem salad, shrimp cocktail and lobster roll. Met the manager who was so friendly and gave us more history on the place. Definitely worth a visit!

    Stumbled across Fives when looking for a break from walking and shopping, literally just across the street from Jackson square. Definitely surprised to find this small, cozy, and well non-touristy gem right in the French Quarter. They have a great drink lineup and they also offer some small plates and seafood, with a diverse selection of oysters. What became my go-to during New Orleans - I ordered a sazerac, then a Pimm's cup, and finally their hurricane. All were well crafted cocktails and that hurricane is stout. The Wife and I also shared a half dozen oysters, which hit the spot. This really is a great place if you just need to stop in to avoid some of the crowds or just want a nice drink and some small plates during your French Quarter jaunt. Five's will be a go-to going forward.

    Stopped in for a drink after exploring Jackson square. Service was excellent, smaller bar so staff is always checking in and ready to make more drinks. They offer a great happy hour special but sadly too full for food. We did order the Saturn in Retrograde and a Vodka Gimlet. Both drinks delicious and hit the spot. Fives was a great spot and I'd love to come back my next visit!

    This is a cute, small bar serving phenomenal cocktails! On my 2 visits I didn't try any of the food but the salad and oysters looked so good. I saw oysters being delivered on both days that I was there so they are fresh! The bartenders were nice. The bathrooms were clean. I highly recommend this bar for upscale drinks and food.

    Trout caviar platter- so delicious
    Angel I.

    Oh.my.goodness. SO GOOD!! We dined here for happy hour and absolutely LOVED everything about our visit. The ambiance was a chill, trendy vibe with most of their seating around their circular bar. Aside from that, they have about four small tables around the room- so with that said, you may have to wait for a seat but it's so worth it. Firstly, the staff is so friendly and welcoming. Their vibe makes you excited to try their drinks and food. We visited for happy hour and ordered a few delicious cocktails - all fresh and perfect. We also ordered raw oysters that were perfectly shucked, chilled, and paired with great accompaniments of cocktail sauce, lemon, and vinaigrette. I regretted not ordering a full dozen. We also ordered the trout caviar. We were hesitant as we love Osetra caviar but went ahead for the trout and for this, there were no regrets, it was wonderful. The trout caviar bursts a nice salty note in your mouth and balances so well with the pairing items. You must try this! I will forever remember this bar for every trip back to New Orleans...and will be craving it until then.

    Wow. What a special and magical place. All I can say is -- go. You won't be disappointed. We went twice on our vacation to New Orleans. I've never revisited a restaurant/bar while traveling because I always make the effort to visit as many new places as possible. So coming here twice means it's truly worth it. The ambiance/restaurant itself is unique, trendy, and fun. The food is fabulous and the drinks are creative and delicious. The service is exceptional as well. 10/10!

    Cocktails and the happy oyster shucker.

    Located in the Kimpton Hotel Fontenot, it is actually a nice restaurant that has a lot of charm…read more Located away from the nose and bustle of Bourbon Street, we had a peaceful dinner that is not fried or wholly unhealthy (i.e. greasy). The presentation of the food came was amazing. We ordered the linguine and added meatballs, which was well worth it. We also ordered the shrimp & grits, which included Brussels sprouts. Boy, it was sure nice to get some vegetables in my stomach after eating all that yummy fried food during our stay! All in all, both dishes were delicious. It is a little on the pricey side, but after several days of eating in the touristy area of the French Quarter, this was truly a welcome change. Service was polite and attentive. I always appreciate the staff's efforts by making simply making eye contact and smiling (which they did). Seems trivial but I think those small things says a lot about a business. I would recommend this restaurant even if you are not a guest of the hotel.

The ambiance is amazing, plus velvet, emerald and sapphire tone, glitzy, and feels like a good photo op. The bar and cocktail menu looked expansive. However, I was going to be hopping on a meeting, so I could not partake, unfortunately. A group got this impressive tower of espresso martini and everyone seemed to be enjoying their drinks! I wanted that New Orleans seafood but had late lunch, so I opted for just the crispy gulf shrimp on cheesy grits. I really wished I can hungrier because the dish ended up being very heavy. The shrimp were nice and crispy. The charred Brussels sprouts gave me the false sense that this was a healthy dish because I was getting my veggie intake. The bacon jam was sweet and went well with the Brussels sprouts. I loved the combination of the cheesy grits and the Crystal hot sauce. It was the perfect amount of both and some how led me to understand why Americans put hot sauce on their Mac n cheese and some other cheesy dishes after 30 years of not really understanding the attraction to that combo. I got the marinated olives to go so I could have a little snack later. They were just stuff I feel I could get in a jar... not really sure if I could justify the price. I think this is a fine place if you're looking for a photogenic night out drinking with a group of friends. Could be really cute for brunch!

    Words simply cannot express how much I continue to be blown away by the exquisite quality of food,…read morebeverage, service, and uncommon hospitality demonstrated and perfectly executed by this New Orleans establishment. My wife and I visited on our first NoLa trip together about 4 years ago and make it a point to go every time now. Our first time we stopped in for lunch at the bar and had an excellent experience, and decided to return. We came back on the next trip just to grab a drink and a snack before heading down for dinner in the Bywater. The bartender (Chris) gave a bunch of recommendations for places to visit that way, all of which we have done in the past few trips and have loved. But it's this past trip where we were truly blown away. We were in town for JazzFest and after walking back to the French Quarter, we were thinking about food options and decided to take a gamble to see if we could get a seat at the bar or maybe grab a drink for the road before getting food somewhere else. The bar was full when we got there around 8/8:15, but they had a no show and could serve us, as long as we ordered quickly and were ok with the check hitting the table right at 9PM. Given our slightly (perhaps generous) inebriated state from being at the festival all day and being slightly underdressed, we felt this was quite a kind accommodation. With the clear expectations of needing to get our orders in quickly, we wasted no time making a decision on our drinks and a few food options. Despite this need for a quick turn around, at no time did we feel rushed. The food and drinks were absolutely perfect, as they always are. But what impressed us most was the staff. At no point did the hostess or wait staff seem annoyed by us, despite us parachuting in from a music festival and looking like sunburn and poor decisions. By managing expectations on the front end, we never felt rushed despite the need for a quick turn around. They were all lovely, professional, and as cordial as if we were regulars with standing reservations once a week. In terms of atmosphere, it is always perfect: lively and fun for a date night, dinner with friends/family, or just a nice drink before a night out and about. I truly cannot begin to explain how much I love this restaurant and every experience I've had there. The awards and accolades this establishment (a sincere and lofty term Jewel of the South truly deserves) have been awarded are beyond well earned. Restaurants around the country should aspire to provide the quality of food, service, and overall hospitality Jewel of the South provides on a regular basis. It will continue to be our first and foremost recommendation to anyone we know who is going to New Orleans. Bravo! We shall return!

We shared 5 small plates - the crawfish bread - crawfish inside a crispy, flaky croissant like bread - OMG deliciousness. Then the tufa crudo - so fresh and flavorful, the crab tartlets - fine, but not as good as the other dishes; excellent salad, and the broccolini in a housemade horseradish goat cheese sauce - wow; one of the best broccolini dishes we have had. The carrots looked amazing, too. What a treat!

I would use this version as your gold standard when dining out in New Orleans and looking for a perfect Sazerac. We enjoyed watching bartender Rachel craft each drink. Rye whiskey, Peychaud's Bitters, and sugar are stirred in a small pitcher with ice. The serving glass is chilled, then emptied, and finished with an absinthe rinse along the rim. The cocktail is strained into the glass and topped with a lemon peel. The atmosphere makes the experience even better. The murals, the history, and the energy of the room give it a sense of occasion that you do not get at most bars. We had such a great time sitting at the bar that my wife and I each finished two and a half Sazeracs, which tells you everything you need to know.

Inside, The Apothecary was serving adults. Let Bourbon Street keep the grenades. Give me the anecdote .
