The good : The food was all just incredible. I did not realize what gnocchi was actually supposed to be like until I ate it in masterpiece form. The overall vibe/decor is dramatic and appealing. If you are a group of rich girls who are eating before they go out drinking or a dude trying hard to impress a date, this is the spot. The eh: It's $$$. I probably didn't look into this aspect well enough so my shock at the menu/check was probably on me. Portions are a bit confusing. Poutine was huge - like Mexican Nachos size huge. Hamburger also. But 2 deviled eggs, a tiny 9$ miniature loaf of bread were confusing in contrast. We had two mixed drinks. Gin and tonic was fine, but the 17$ espresso martini was hilariously undrinkably unpleasant. Less like espresso, more like donut shop coffee. Now, I love some indirect lighting. It creates interesting and compelling spaces with mood and a bit of mystery- But y'all - this is just the darkest restaurant (or lounge or whatever) I have ever eaten in. There is so little light that you literally cannot read the menu without using the flashlight on your phone. It is spelunking levels of darkness in there. I had to ask the server for more of the tiny tabletop candles just so we could see each other. The music is also very loud. Which would make sense if there was a dance floor or some reason for it. It is a place where what you do is drink and eat (in the dark) and talk to each other. The design of the restaurant itself seems at odds with the two things it aims to provide. read more

We have burger and shrimp cocktail...... You're welcome in advance, they both were good. Delishia is the ABSOLUTE BEST, she was so attentive to us!!!!! This place is an absolute vibe. It was too dark for my hubby and some friends to read the menu. The speciality cocktails were not my favorite, but I'll be back and look forward to it. read more

Ambience was amazing! Cozy couches , great atmosphere. Our waiter Malik was amazing and full of great recommendations. Our group had charcuterie and tuna tartare, along with Steak Frites and the special, which was salmon with a crab stuffing/sauce. Cocktails were amazing too. Would definitely go back! read more

Jolie - Pool pass drink - Cocktail Bars Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

This restaurant exceeded my expectations. It was so good. I ordered the chicken, which comes on a bed of mashed potatoes with this incredible sauce. I honestly don't even know what the sauce is, but it's so good. The broccolini was great, and the chicken was perfectly crispy. The ambiance was amazing and very different from a regular restaurant. The tables are a little small, but that's because it has a cozy vibe, dim lighting, couches for seating, and low tables. All the tables and chairs are different, which makes it feel really unique. There's also a bar inside, and the whole place just has a very cool, laid-back vibe. Customer service was amazing. I also tried the deviled eggs and highly recommend them. Everything was just delicious. Hands down, one of the best restaurants I've been to in New Orleans. read more

Jolie - Dirty Maison - Cocktail Bars Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

Warm and romantic aesthetic, beautifully decorated. Wait staff is quick and very attentive. Very aesthetically pleasing. Food was amazing. Tried the Bread Service with Chili Butter and Fig Compote, Pesto Orecchiette, and Steak Frites. The fig compote and chili butter went so well together, salty, sweet and spicy. The Pesto sauce was well seasoned and uniquely delicious. However, I did not like the chicken in the pasta, it had a taste almost like the chicken in chicken noodle soup. The steak was very well seasoned but the fries were nothing special. The espresso martini comes as a double and is extremely good strong, we shared it. Overall it was an amazing experience and I would love to visit again. read more

Absolutely love it here! It's such a vibe! Beautifully decorated & for sure a classy vibe. I've been several times & have always been pleased with the service. The music is great but also depends on when you visit. Typically, I've visited on a Friday or Saturday. I've tried a few different cocktails & have enjoyed each. I've only had the fries for a light bite & they are delicious. Easily becoming one of my favorite places to grab a drink. read more

Such a vibey spot!! Came on a Thursday for happy hour (they do it every day from 4-6) but on thursdays they also have live music!! We just got a glass of wine and a mocktail and split some small bites. The deviled eggs were really good. And the sauce with the French fries was addicting. Our bartender was sweet and attentive. She actually made the mocktail for my friend that wasn't on the menu just based on things my friend described that she liked. Such a great spot downtown. read more

Went for drag/burlesque brunch. The show and performances were a 10/10. Awesome! The decor Jolie is beautiful such a pretty, glamorous space. Our server was not attentive. She took our order and we never saw her again. She didn't even come to check in after our food arrived and therefore couldn't be told our order was wrong. After flagging someone down the mix up was taken care of. The other supporting staff including the manager were great. I get a limited brunch menu but for the price point the options and quality of brunch prices could be better. Enjoyed the creative brunch cocktails. Would definitely return just for the show. read more

We brought a large group of 14 for happy hour and they said nothing about not letting us have our own check. We are all in business. They said it's printed on the bottom of the menu.

How many things can we cram into a weekend? Mardi Gras, Valentine's Day, All Star Weekend, Presidents' Day, ‍. I tried to keep up with all of it which is why I chose Sunday for a Valentine's moment for the hubbins and I. I went through my lists of places to checkout and Jolie kept from the page. Cozy, distinct, intimate, with a vibe firmly set on the romantic axis. I hadn't noticed that Jolie was directly on a parade route and began to fret when my Uber driver said she would get us as close as possible (1.5 mile walk). I called to let the venue know we would be 10 minutes late for our reservation. I left a message. When we arrived 3:15 the hostess must have seen the slight distress on my face as I began to explain my miscalculation. She smiled gently, saw my reservation in the system and said follow me. I breathed a sigh of relief as I began to take in the atmosphere. It feels like velvet with rich deep colors adorning the walls and furniture. We were sat by a large window facing the street that revelers were setting up for the parade. The window let in enough light to see the menus and eat without disturbing other areas. The bartender and our attendant were great offering suggestions based on our preferences. They did not miss. The food was yummy and I had more drinks than usual. We had a series of appetizers including the deviled eggs which were divine, duck poutine, and parm fries. This is a great spot for an intimate first date or solid relationship. Located on Julia it makes for a great date, visit before exploring the galleries on Julia. It's also good for an outing with friends offering chill vibes and decor. Jolie is definitely a place to go and enjoy. read more

Jolie has easily become one of my favorite places to grab a cocktail in the city. I have been twice for events and at the last event had the opportunity to try their food menu. First, the ambiance is very mellow, chic and chill. It is a bit dark but it sets the mood. Perfect for a girls night out or date night. Their cocktails are always hand crafted and made with just enough liquor. I ordered the Jolie burger and it was delicious! Cooked just right, juicy and flavorful. It also came with a side of Parmesan fries. They were really good as well. I barely had any left. But I look forward to going back. Love Jolie! read more

Super cool speakeasy bar with really unique cocktails. The vibes were sultry and dark. The servers were not very existent but the bartender was great. When we arrived with our group of 12, the host tried to charge us a $55 minimum per person... Which would've meant 4+ drinks per person which was way more than we were trying to spend in one seating. Though the drinks were very good. I had the Cooper Nights with rum, Chai tea, Spiced pumpkin, cardamon and creme fraise and it was absolutely delightful!! It was so good. read more

Amazing! A girlfriend and I were recently in town for a conference and looking for some place near the convention center for drinks and light bites. We found Jolie and saw there were no available reservations but decided to give it a shot. We ended up getting seats at the bar. Gotta say this place is adorable. It gives cozy speakeasy vibes and the mood lighting was a vibe. We started off with an old fashioned and strawberry lemon drop. Both drinks were amazing. The bartender asked if he could make me another drink and asked what I liked. I can't recall what he said he made but it was so good. A citrusy, not too sweet cocktail with a sugared rim. It was perfect! We ordered the escargot, foie gras, potato croquettes and gnocchi. I had never had escargot and was nervous to try but did anyways. It was pretty good, not going to lie. The sauce was so lovely. I found the foie gras too rich but it wasn't bad. The gnocchi and croquettes were delicious. I would definitely stop in again if I ever make it back to New Orleans! Make a reservation if you can, but if not try your luck getting a bar seat. It's worth it, promise. read more

I truly had an amazing experience Jolie and cannot wait to go back like I'm literally already making plans to go back. We got an espresso martini due to a short wait and then I ordered the drink called "air" and it was wonderful. Both drinks were a 10 out of 10. For the food, I tried the caviar deviled eggs and ricotta gnocchi and both didn't disappoint. I really love the vibe in there. It was a little dark lol but it was definitely given what was needed to be gave. I cannot wait to go back and I had such a great time. read more

I was there with a group of 5 and seven though we walked in at a crowded time, the host was so gracious to let us hang at the bar for about 15 minutes before our table was ready. Our server was sweet and helpful when it came to choosing our drinks. The DJ was particularly good that night and we really enjoyed just hanging out. read more

I was in a cocktail mood. So why not the cocktail Cuisine ET Cocktails right?? After trying to find a reasonable parking spot (parking around this area is sack tbh! So just a heads up! This is at 4 something in the the evening by the way) WARNING! This is only the bar and drinks rating. I did not try any food. (Carry on if interested in the rest of my drinking libations content) The atmosphere is so chilled. Very dark but yet exquisitely decorated with the choice of decor. The feel of the furniture let me know I was going to have a stable dining experience. The live music gives the spot the extra flair. How could you not have a live music experience when spending big money in a chilled atmosphere dedicated to an upscale drinking experience. I enjoyed it. I had no clue what the entertainers were playing but it was so enjoyable and added to the drinking experience! I'm a big Margarita fan. I did not see my choice of cocktail on the cocktail menu so I decided to throw a curve ball to my bartender. I was in a Margarita mood. Jonni the bartender let me know that she is a Margarita maker expert and let me just say she was not lying. I got a simple Margarita that was not in the menu and she handcrafted that bad boy as if it was. It has simple ingredients but yet it packs such a powerful punch. It wasn't too sweet and it was not too tart. It was just right! Thanks to the bartender Jonni! The espresso martini Is A nice delicious one to try as well! Its so smooth but yet so rich! It honestly did not taste like it had vodka in it and I dislike vodka. Overall if i can find parking I'm back here. It was cool. read more

Elegant! Ooooo this place is sexy! The ambiance is incredible, great for a date night. My review is only for the drinks since we didn't have food. We arrived at about 10:30pm on New Year's Day and it was one of the few places open. Our bartender was super sweet and made a few recommendations. We stayed for about and hour and listened to the smooth playlist. We planned to come back because they have a dj on Friday night but didn't get a chance to make it. read more

When we first walked in, we had very high hopes. The music was great. The decor is fantastic. The menu was small, but good. The service, however, was lacking. When we were ready to order, the server disappeared for quite a while. Once we finally ordered, we didn't see our waiter again until after the food, water, and wine was gone and a bus boy stopped by to ask why my friend hadn't eaten the gnocchi and if he could box anything up. It wasn't busy, and I saw our waiter at other tables. I'm honestly not sure what happened. The gnocchi was creamy, but not super flavorful. The oyster mushroom steak was pretty good. Overall, it has a great vibe, but it leaves something to be desired. I've had better food and service at smaller restaurants on the other side of town. read more

Went there with a large group so we had a limited menu. That said, service was great, we sat at the bar for a while, certainly some of the drinks helped this score than the food. Vibe and ambience were pretty good, kinda reminded me of Elvis's living room. Had several items such as the cavier devil eggs. Wasn't bad at all and gave us a little something to munch on. Nothing really stood out. But all the sides and the mains came out room temp or cold. Steaks all seemed over done. Potatoes were literally colder than room temp. I know all too well how difficult it is to cater to large groups, but this is why you have a limited menu. It a conference town, it's a a chance to showcase your restaurant to a wide audience, and a lot rides on getting it right. This one kinda missed, I may go back at some point to see how the normal menu works out. read more
