Great service by the hostess and Q. Unfortunately, an inebriated situation with a patron disturbed our moment but the food delivered. Disappointed in the manager of the night. He should have addressed all customers in the area in the vicinity of the inebriated guest that resulted in broken glass and the patrons tumbling to the floor. He comped only two of the three customers in the area. He should have addressed us all. Thanks Q for being very professional about it all. You were amazing! read more

While staying at the Four Seasons Hotel, we decided to have our Sunday Brunch at the hotel in the Miss River restaurant. What a beautiful area and the staff are so warm and welcoming! Without reservations we were still seated right away. A wonderful jazz duo started playing right before our food was served and they were extremely talented. The biggest plus were they were not too loud as to make conversation difficult. Our food was served hot and very fresh. Everything was delicious! Fried chicken and biscuits were amazing and my daughter ordered the Buttermilk Biscuit Board. Again, everything was so well prepared and absolutely perfect. Very well deserving of all five stars! read more

Service was not very attentive for this somewhat upscale restaurant. The food was good but the options are very limited. We asked for a couple of different drinks and were told that they didn't know if the bartender could make the particular drink, this wasn't a shot and beer place they should know how to make a few different martinis. There weren't a lot of occupied tables but yet our server hardly came back to the table to check on us. read more

Delicious brunch with live music (they even sang in French!). We loved their shrimp and grits and gumbo. The crystal hot sauce was also phenomenal. We would definitely return to this place. read more

Wonderful food, but terrible service! We were greeted by a hostess who was very sweet and she even took our coats. We felt very welcomed! Mauricio introduced himself as our waiter, gave us water, and then never came back to our table. When someone else finally came over to take our drink orders, she did not look happy to be there or help us. All of our food came out at once. We loved the fried chicken and sauces, wood grilled oysters, dirty rice, gumbo (dark roux was great!), sweet potato bread, and baked Alaska. You can skip the Caesar as it was unremarkable. I found a small piece of glass in the dirty rice, but it was not sharp. I honestly didn't alert them because I felt the waitress wouldn't have cared and that would have put a damper on my evening. We waited a LONG time to get the check and almost got up to find someone to help. We even had to track someone down to get our coats. Overall we received food worthy of the Four Seasons, but the service was worse than at a chain sit down restaurant. We didn't let it ruin our night but will go to Saba next time to get Alon's delicious food. read more

Me, my wife came to visit New Orleans, which is our favorite food location before the New Year. We decided to stay at the Four Seasons a couple of days because they just opened recently. Got in kinda late so we decided to have something to eat at the restaurant in the hotel. For New Orleans to have such a great reputation and for so many wonderful food locations here this place was extremely disappointing. First of all the server was terrible. She was rude and she was very unhelpful. Secondly I ordered the blackened snapper. It came out with absolutely no seasoning on it for it to be called blackened and let me remind you we are in New Orleans. The oysters were not good and the gumbo was terrible and that is shocking to say seeing how we are in New Orleans, but the gumbo was some of the worst gumbo I've ever had. So overall, this might have been one of the worst food experiences, but absolutely the worst food experience I've ever had in New Orleans, so needless to say we would not ever visit this location again and I feel like they need to get a local Chef that understands the cuisine and flavors that the city is known for especially being in the Four Seasons you expect a certain level and it's just not there. Let me say that while walking around the manager did stop by to check on our table which we told them about the issues and to her credit she did go and address it in the kitchen, she said, and she also removed the gumbo and the oysters from our meal, which we had finished Food 0/5 Service 0/5 Atmosphere 3/5 Manager 5/5 Return Factor 0/5 read more

The restaurant was amazing, and the presentation of each dish was beautiful. The cozy, lowkey ambiance made it the perfect spot for a relaxed meal, and the service was on point.

Recently went to the Safta x Uchi garden series center in Denver, so thought it would be a nice juxtaposition to try one of Alon Shaya's restaurants while I was in New Orleans! Went for the coolinary lunch which was a great deal! The set menu was Emily's red beans and rice + fried chicken, with a beignet for dessert. This may be the best fried chicken I've ever had in my life! Perfectly seasoned, tender hot and juicy on the inside, and crispy on the outside. Very upscale vibe, inside the Four Seasons, with intriguing decor in the restaurant entry area, and a picturesque chandelier bar outside. read more

I am writing in reference to brunch yesterday. We had a 10:30 reservation for myself, my husband, and my sister-in-law. We arrived a few minutes early and were seated immediately. A young lady came to our table and handed us a drink menu and a brunch menu. She briefly mentioned that there were different brunch stations included with brunch. We were a bit confused because we did not realize it was a buffet-style brunch only. That itself was absolutely fine and not an issue at all, we simply did not understand how everything worked. I would kindly suggest that staff explain the process a bit more clearly to guests. For example: Are drinks included? Where are the brunch stations located? Can guests still order from the menu? We really were not given much information beyond "there are different brunch stations." One brunch station was outside!!! Thank goodness my husband noticed it, I would not have thought to go outside. The three of us sat there for a moment unsure of what to do and eventually got up to get food because we assumed that was what we were supposed to do. After eating our first plates, we still had not received any drinks. We eventually flagged down a gentleman to ask for beverages, which arrived about 20 minutes later. At one point, my sister-in-law and I asked another server if it might be possible to get scrambled eggs. He very kindly said he was sure the chef could do that. However, we later discovered we were charged $10 per plate ($20 total) for four scrambled eggs. This was frustrating because we later realized the menu initially provided included items that could be ordered as part of the buffet brunch. There was even an omelet option listed, which made the additional charge for scrambled eggs confusing. Throughout the meal, we found ourselves having to stop different employees walking by just to ask basic questions or request assistance. One person took the egg request, another took our first drink order, another took our food order once we realized we could get items off of the menu card and later my husband spoke with a manager, a very nice woman with curly hair pulled back, to ask if someone could help us with a second round of drinks after we had already been there over an hour. She responded that she would notify our waiter, and my husband jokingly replied that we would too if we could actually find one. It honestly felt as though our table may not have been assigned to a particular server, as we received bits and pieces of service from several different people. I have to say, this was unfortunately one of the poorer service experiences we have had in quite some time. We brought my sister-in-law because she had never experienced a beautiful brunch before, and we were really hoping it would be a wonderful experience for her. Sadly, it ended up being disappointing. To be fair, after we finished eating, the manager did come over and acknowledge that the drink service had not been up to par and removed the beverages from our bill. The final waiter who assisted us also apologized sincerely and mentioned that he had removed the drinks as well. That kindness was appreciated and certainly not expected. Please know that I am not writing this in hopes of receiving a free meal or compensation. I live in New Orleans, and I truly want our city and its restaurants to thrive. The hospitality and service at our restaurants are a huge part of what makes this city special, and I genuinely want to see your restaurant succeed. I mean no disrespect with this email. I have simply shared our honest experience because I believe constructive feedback can be helpful. Unfortunately, while the meal itself was somewhat underwhelming, the service issues were the main factor that affected our overall experience. On a positive note, the gentleman making the pancakes was absolutely fantastic! read more

Food was delicious! I had the crab meat Alma and it was full of crab meat. They definitely didn't hold back. I had the flaming espresso martini, and it was a very cool experience & delicious. Ambiance was amazing. Service was incredible. They went above and beyond. It's definitely pricey. Definitely a one of a kind dining experience especially during the holidays. read more

Great ambience and excellent service. Our waiter was honestly the highlight of the experience. He was so attentive and personable from start to finish. I did have mixed feelings about the food. The blackened snapper had great potential, it was cooked perfectly with the crispiest skin, but the skin was entirely too salty so I couldn't eat it. The sweet potato brioche was pretty good I just personally wished it was a bit sweeter. Creamed spinach was excellent. The fries were just okay, but they come in a large serving so if you're looking to split something it's a good pick. In terms of dessert, the beignets were too dense, but they do come with a nice cream sauce. And the chocolate doberge cake was pretty tasty, it comes with a scoop of lemon ice cream which pairs nicely, but be mindful that it's more of a classic chocolate cake rather than a traditional doberge cake. read more

Recently traveled to NOLA on a birthday trip and Miss River was one of our dinners. Sat outside since it was beautiful weather, and we basically had the entire space to ourselves. Very relaxing space. Service was very attentive, excellent food presentation and delicious as well! They gave us champagne for our birthday, which was super nice! For food, I tried the vegetarian green curry with crab added. It was SO good, but i think the rice portion could be bigger, as that was gone well before the curry was, but besides that, no complaints. It really felt like five star dining here, and would recommend it if you're in the area. read more

We had an absolutely wonderful experience at Miss River, and a huge part of that was thanks to our server, Matt. From the moment we were seated, he made us feel welcome and well taken care of. Matt did an outstanding job explaining the tasting menu--he was knowledgeable, clear, and genuinely enthusiastic, which made the entire experience even more enjoyable. He answered all of our questions with ease and helped guide us through each course perfectly.In addition to his great personality and expertise, Matt was incredibly efficient and attentive throughout the meal. The pacing was spot-on, and when it came time for the check, everything was handled quickly and smoothly without feeling rushed. His professionalism and attention to detail truly stood out. We couldn't have asked for better service and will absolutely be back--hopefully with Matt as our server again! read more

My husband and I came here for the first time for our first year wedding anniversary. We wanted something upscale but also different so we decided to try here. The aesthetics of this restaurant is beautiful as it is on the first level of the four seasons hotel in downtown New Orleans. Our server Ryan was amazing and he let us know that the owner of the restaurant was very big on marriage so they gave us a complementary round of Prosecco. They also gave us a complementary dessert and fruit plate at the end of our meal. Everything was fresh and amazing especially the Boudin. Will definitely recommend and come back for another special occasion! The manager Jamal also came to speak to us and congratulate us! So sweet!! read more

Visiting New Orleans from Colorado I am no Cajun expert, but I love this kind of food and for our first stop here this was quite a treat!!! We tried a few different cocktails and all of them were amazing. The boudin was exceptionally good as an appetizer. The gumbo had the best roux I have ever tasted in my life. It was nice and thick, almost to the point of a gravy, and it was taken to a smokey flash point that gave it so much flavor and depth!!! The garlic butter, wood fired shrimp was our favorite entree. The extra butter sauce was incredible with the bread it was served with and over the parmesan smashed potatoes. Combine two of the best Southern items ever for dessert. Bananas Foster and bread pudding combined together in one dish. So good!!! The crispy chunks of caramelized sugars on top of the bread pudding was an added delight. Our service is excellent from our first interaction at the hostess stand all the way through our dinner with our server. Thank you read more

Our brunch at Miss River was decent, but not anything extraordinary. Live jazz, beautiful decor, and overall great food. For the price point though, it met expectations for me and did not exceed them. The flashy drinks were cool - a BYO Bloody Mary bar and an espresso martini tableside fire show. It's fun for the experience but nothing special. The food was really good - loved the shrimp and grits and the pancakes! I would skip the beignets and ham. 3.5 but rounding up because of our amazing server! read more

For the 2 people who have read my reviews, you'll see that I went back to the Four Seasons (my first dinner there was at Chemin a la Mer on the 5th floor). This time we hit the ground floor restaurant, Miss River. It's slightly more casual than upstairs and has a great patio with a wood fired pizza oven. Service was obviously perfect (again, Four Seasons). I didn't end up snapping a pic of all the dishes because I was with clients and they were lighting me up any time I whipped my phone out. We started with an oil drum's worth of bbq shrimp and one of the salads (can't remember which one but it doesn't matter, it's salad). The shrimp was better than at Chemin a la Mer, which means to say it was outstanding compared to just excellent. The piece de resistance (goes to New Orleans once) was the main course. The redfish was served in a stew of oysters, crawfish, shrimp, and the holy trinity (what I can only assume is the nectar of the gods). It was so good the only thing holding me back from doing cartwheels around the room were the clients sitting across from me. I got Emily's famous rice and beans as a side and was practically delirious by the time my plates were cleared. Don't sleep on the redfish if you're a seafood fan. Top 10 things I've ever consumed. Finished with some desert and called it a night. I wish Yelp would let me give this a 4.5. Chemin a la Mer has a higher rating but, gun to my head I would choose Miss River over it. Best move is to just cancel your flight and go to both. read more

Really enjoyed Miss River. The service was phenomenal and the food was seasoned and cooked to perfection. The restaurant was on the darker side but not too bad. Everyone was very nice and the decor was tasteful. You even get to name the chicken which we thought was kinda funny. Check it out if you want a nice upscale vibe. read more

The oysters were AMAZINGLY DELICIOUS!!! If you come though you MUST try the fried chicken because it's the best fried chicken I've ever had in my entire existence. The lemon with peppers adds a special flavor and I will come back to NOLA, for this chicken alone. We also had the NY Strip which was ok, a little fatty and tough. However, the chicken and oysters are the best! Great customer service as well! read more

This is a review from Summer 2023 but better late than never. Unfortunately, some of the menu items are no longer available typically steer away from hotel restaurants but both of the spots inside the Four Seasons are excellent. Because the items in the photo are no longer on the menu I won't name them but I will say they were delicious. We went to lunch after the spa for my boyfriend's birthday and it was a gorgeous day, so the space was nicely lit with natural light. I would definitely go again but he was not the biggest fan for his own reasons. He's also an impossibly picky eater. The staff was kind and attentive. Expect to get valet parking or walk a couple blocks. I'm looking forward to my next visit. read more

Pros: service, decor ( great photos options indoor and outdoor). It was giving old New Orleans money. The cocktails average about $18-$25 each but are very good. Order a "Late Check Out" at the bar. It will be the only drink you need for the entire meal. Mids: we were seated by the kitchen and registers but had plenty of space. Cons: food was bland, under portioned and definitely overpriced. If you HAVE to eat here order the sweet potato bread, a side of praline bacon, and a side of red beans. The other entrees and sides are not worth it. Also prepare yourself for a $50 corkage fee and a fee to cut any Birthday cakes you bring in from the outside. read more

This dining experience was one of the best I've EVER had! Generally this type of decadence is out of my price range, but a visiting friend makes it his hobby dining at the world's best restaurant so lucky for me! We enjoyed 4 courses; caviar, sweet potato rolls and baked oysters, bbq shrimp & crab gratin, filet tournedos and green curry with shrimp, lastly chocolate doberge and creole cream cheese ice cream with caviar. Service was excellent, personable professional and not rushed whatsoever. Thank you Stasia! We admired the ambiance of the dining room as well as the gorgeous plates and flatware. Something about using a tiny pearl spoon to scoop caviar onto blinis makes one feel like a Queen! Save up and go, it'll be worth every moment! read more

I get it nice hotel....the food was good, but way over priced for what it was my opinion. $40 for a small piece of fried chicken (thigh) with red beans and rice. "Service" was the worst from start to finish. The hostess was the best by far out of the entire visit. That being said, I would highly suggest you visit Willie's Chicken Shack for a much better experience which is right around the corner less than half a mile. read more

The chef 100% nailed the essence of the decor with this restaurant and penning it as his love letter to New Orleans. The decor and finishes are gorgeous, intricate and breathtaking. This is a restaurant you have to visit for yourself to truly capture the essence of the interior design. If you want a beautiful date night, this is the place to be. If you want an intimate dinner with family or friends, this is the place to be. The bread service is 100% worth it. The Blue Crab au gratin is delicious. If you get the redfish courtbouillon, add a side of Jazmine rice so you can enjoy the roux. It does have a kick to it! This is a restaurant that indulges all of your senses. read more

I came here for my birthday brunch and I loved it! The service was top notch and the food was great! I did a large party brunch so of course my entire party wasn't there when I arrived lol. At first, they told me and my friend we couldn't sit until our entire party arrived so we went and got drinks at the chandelier bar. However, a few minutes later we were told we could come and the bartender actually comped our drinks when he heard it was my birthday. So sweet. With the large party brunch there is an $85 pp pre fixed menu. This includes 1 cocktail, 1 appetizer and 1 entree. They were out of boudin which was a slight bummer. Most of us got the flaming espresso martini which includes a table side presentation that is fun. I got the oyster patty and the pain perdue which were both delicious. For dessert I ordered a cake but Michael also gave me beignets on the house. So so sweet! Everything was delicious and Michael was an absolute gem! read more

Miss River Restaurant - Was soook good.. can't wait to go back - Desserts Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

I am a big fan of James Beard Award winning Chef Alon Shaya, and I am disappointed in our experience at his Miss River Restaurant, the flagship restaurant for the New Orleans Four Seasons Hotel. It was a big miss. We had seven in our group, we were celebrating a big birthday, at an upscale restaurant I was hoping would provide excellent service and exceptional dining. In my opinion, we received neither. I found the food standard, and frankly, a very poor value. For instance, I ordered the Chicken and Biscuits ($35.00). I received a fried chicken wing, a small thigh and one biscuit. The Scrambled Egg Toast ($18.00) was one piece of toast and two eggs. The Pain Perdue ($24.00) was two pieces of Texas Toast and a half a banana. And syrup. The service was hit and miss. The Hostess was fun, friendly, welcoming, acknowledged that we were celebrating a big birthday, presented the youngest in our group a stuffed alligator, and escorted us to our table. Santa Clause was very kind to the group, and posed for pictures. Ms. France provided excellent service, was attentive, responsive, and a pleasure. Our server, Ms. Sarah, was very not present, and ended up forgetting we were celebrating a birthday. After leaving us sitting for a long while, five of the group left the table, and she finally returned with the bill, apologizing for forgetting the birthday, saying "oh, I would have brought cookies or something." We actually waited for her to bring out a to-go box of eight cookies. Yeah, Happy Big Birthday. (Other Yelp reviews mention a glass of champagne and/or beignets for the birthday girl ... while she is actually at the table. Our table was marked by a gold balloon, which the server removed, before we ordered.) The restaurant itself, neat and clean, was far more Denny's in appearance and function than you would expect for a Four Seasons. Did I mention the Overnight Oats Oatmeal was $17.00? I am going with three stars, because I knew it would be an expensive celebratory meal, and we ate the food, I just didn't know l would have been far happier going to a Waffle House.

We will definitely be back! read more

At market prices are used to rip off customers with way over the top pricing. Deceptive pricing. Crab Casserole with 1 oz of crab should not be $61.00. I would not go back to these desperate people.

The restaurant is beautiful, the service exceptional and the cocktails expertly prepared however the food is just ok. Now don't get me wrong enjoyed the meal but for the hype around this place the food was just ok. My favorites were the rolls, the clay pot dirty rice (chef's kiss) and the wonderfully indulgent baked Alaska. The carved buttermilk chicken was good but at times all you can taste is the burned spices. The salt-crusted gulf red snapper was my favorite out of the two; Flaky, flavorful, wonderful! read more

Beautiful place close to my house, went there almost twice. This time it was a birthday celebration of my friend, i put it on a note and also told the waiter about it but probably he did not care. The view of the restaurant is amazing outside and inside All the cocktails was amazing with garnish and so the food ... ordered almost everything from the menu all of them got perfect seasoning and also a good portion as per the fine dinning price. All of the food had very good presentation and flavours.my wine Justin isosceles was amazing. All the waiters and staff are very professional. As a vegetarian i did not disappoint as waiter suggested me two different option for main course and i ordered both. I would have left 5 stars if he would have brought a cake or something atleast to celebrate my best friends birthday !! read more

This place was AMAZING, in service, atmosphere, and food! We came just in time for the lunch special, and the staff were kind enough to hold our luggage as we were heading to the airport afterwards. For our appetizers, we got the Maison salad that was crunchy, fresh, and had a delicious citrus type of dressing. The gumbo was super rich and flavorful, the side of rice it came with was a bit dry and hard, but eating it with the gumbo helped! We also got the fire grilled oysters topped with spinach & cheese type of mixture that was SO delicious. The oysters were not fishy at all and HUGE. For entree, we got the blackened snapper that was perfectly seasoned, flakey, and juicy. It laid on a bed of beans & some type of savory sauce that worked really with the snapper. The muffaletta sandwich was also great, but nothing too special, still great flavor. Would definitely come back here! read more

We came here for brunch on Sunday 9/25. Everyone who was not our waiter was kind, greeted us with a smile, and was helpful. Our waiter did not seem to care. He did not fill our waters, he ended up accidently stabbing my husband in the back with silverware, and would not separate our checks at the end of the service. There was only 8 of us and I could be wrong, but the upstairs Chemin a la Mer was able to separate checks so I am thinking if they are on the same payment system, that this waiter just did not want to be bothered. Also, he completely forgot to send out my gumbo as an appetizer. It didn't bother me that he forgot, it bothered me that he lied to us when we asked about it. He told us that the gumbo was gonna come out with the entree. Really? Not sure why the other 2 people that ordered gumbo had theirs as an appetizer. The food, was way over priced for what you get. Drinks were good, but you're paying hotel fee and beautiful ambience - pricing. We knew all that ahead of time but figured since it is a Shaya restaurant, the food would taste good. The shrimp and grits had super thick grits which didn't bother me as much as runny grits but it was unusual texture. And the sauce was just not that good, it was a red colored sauce with a vinegary taste to it. I am not a fan of the shell on when dining in a fancy place but that is a personal preference. The duck gumbo was decent and the only thing I liked about my meal was that it was served with both rice or potato salad. I did like the butter that came out with the complimentary bread. We had ventured around the 4 seasons and it is a gorgeous hotel. If you have a choice between Miss River and Chemin a la Mer, go to the latter. You won't spend as much and you'll have better food and service. read more

Large menu with lots of eye-catching items! We dined here for a special occasion and the staff and service and atmosphere were excellent. Our meal favorites were our appetizers; we got the Crab and Dumplings and Gulf Snapper Crudo. The Crab and Dumplings were creamy and the blue crab flavor came through. The crudo's chili oil was an awesome compliment to the fish and the mint and basil added a touch of freshness. We also got the Clay Pot Dirty Rice for the table - the liver pate was a bit too rich and creamy for our taste - I think we could have done with it out for the rice since the duck breast is very rich on its own. Otherwise, this dish was good! Two from our party got the BLackened Snapper and a side of the Duck and Andouille Gumbo. We thought the gumbo would be a bit different, it was like rice and then a separate bowl of the roux to pour over the jasmine rice. It wasn't bad, just not what we were expecting. I got the Redfish Courtboullion which was the hit of the table! The shrimp, oysters, and crab were very fresh. I tasted a bit of the chili oil that was used in the crudo and I loved it. I actually got really full by the time this dish came out so sadly I wasn't able to enjoy it to the full extent. The Giardiniera Salad with Fried Oysters was okay, nothing too special. The oysters were fried well. Overall, the service and atmosphere were great but the food was underwhelming. read more

For our last full day, my friend and I dined at Miss River to end the trip at a bit of a fancier spot. It was reminiscent of places like Born & Raised or Morning Glory in San Diego -- in terms of decor. Side note: this place is inside of the Four Seasons, which I did not realize until a local mentioned that. Now onto the food! My friend and I shared the Louisiana bbq shrimp, best of boudin and gumbo. The shrimp was very tasty, and the sauce I could have just eaten with rice because it was that good. It came with bread with pesto, which was an interesting combination, but it worked. The boudin was delicious. Why is this sausage SO good? Paired with the Dijon mustard and crackers was perfect. As for the gumbo, it was made with a dark roux, and I was not too much a fan of the flavor. Our server explained the different kinds of gumbo, and I personally like the other version better. For dessert, we ordered the blueberry bread pudding. It was topped with ice cream and it was an explosion of flavor. Not to mention, we were gifted the bread with the cane sugar butter (phenomenal) and beignets. We had mentioned our experience with beignets on the trip, which was unfortunately lackluster, so they wanted to redeem that for us on behalf of the other place, I'm sure! Our waiter (Juan) was attentive, knowledgeable, personable and just such a genuine person! There was no room for questions because he managed to answer/explain everything in detail prior to us being able to even inquire. He mentioned he had only been there for a couple of months, but it seems like he has been there longer. Overall, a beautiful place with great dining options and exceptional service. read more

Went to this glorious spot for my birthday and they did not disappoint. Everything from the baked Alaska to the sweet potato bread was spot-on but our favorite dish of the night was most certainly the lamb patê dirty rice. They use the Korean stone pot (ddolssot) method to make the rice both flavorful and crispy. And the beef steak dish dripping in that juicy apple flavor put a smile on the face of a girl who doesn't usually like red meat. It was a perfect way to celebrate and worth every penny--10/10 recommend! read more
