We were excited to dine at Restaurant August on Monday, our first visit. They are celebrating their 25th anniversary this year, which made the experience feel even more special. The setting is stunning. A beautiful open dining room inside a historic building. While we waited in the bar for our guests to arrive, it was clear this was a polished operation. The service team carried themselves with a level of sophistication you don't see everywhere. We chose the four course tasting menu, where each course offers three options. With four of us dining, we ordered every option and doubled up on one we thought deserved a larger portion. First Course Tuna Crudo Wagyu Beef Tartare Grilled Gulf Shrimp Second Course Gnocchi "Black and Blue" Crawfish Tartlet Diver Scallop Third Course Irodori Wagyu Manhattan Strip Snapper Pontchartrain Dry-Aged Duck Breast Fourth Course Tarte à la Bouille Hummingbird Cake After Dinner Mint Course after course, the food was outstanding. Creative, beautifully presented, and packed with flavor. The only item we would not order again was the After Dinner Mint dessert. It leaned a bit too heavily on the mint. The wine list is impressive. We ended up ordering three bottles over the course of the evening and enjoyed each one. One issue kept this from being a perfect experience. The third course, our entrée, took 46 minutes to arrive, compared to about 15 minutes between the earlier and later courses. There was no proactive communication from our server. I had to flag her down to ask, and was told it was on the way. That delay stretched our evening by close to 30 minutes, and there was no acknowledgment or effort to make up for it. If I'm scoring it, the food is a 5 out of 5 without question. The service, because of that lapse, was closer to a 3. I'll meet in the middle and give Restaurant August a 4 overall. Even with that hiccup, this was one of the best meals we've ever had in New Orleans.
The food was impeccable. We did a four course meal at $125 per person. The options were out of this world things we've never had before. The Service was equally as amazing. It felt like we were teleported to some Parisian restaurant. They came around with compliments of the Chef twice and their attention to detail in the decor in restaurant was amazing.
Each course was perfection! 5 stars+ Service was outstanding, Seating in the restaurant requires all parties to have with the 4 or 7 course pre fixe. I had the 4 for $125. It was worth every cent. The tuna crudo was so good I could eat a pound of it. The wagyu was off the charts. The cocktails are great, I went with the Sazerac. Yum
Man, we almost missed out on August. This ended up being our last meal of the trip and honestly we were already in full glutton mode. Earlier that day we did Brennan's, then Loretta's, Café Du Monde, and even stopped at Sun Chong's for the gumbo dumplings and redfish po'boy. By the time we got here for our reservation, we were barely even hungry. Luckily they were super accommodating and let us sit at the bar and order à la carte. We started with the Wild Mushrooms and Escargot, the Gnocchi "Black and Blue," and the Bluefin Tuna Tiradito. Everything was seriously so good. Even though we were full, we looked at each other and said we had to order at least one entrée, so we went with the Red Snapper Pontchartrain and it was worth it. And yes... even completely stuffed, we still ordered dessert. We got both the mint chocolate and the strawberry shortcake because at that point why not. Highly recommend both. Definitely a spot we'll have to come back to next time. Also, shoutout to our bartender. She was great and honestly made the night.
We dined here for our anniversary and it did not disappoint! It's small plates but after all the course, you are satisfied and comfortably full. Beautiful decor and setting - very intimate and romantic. We amuse bouche which was divine. There were two other small bites equally tasty before the 4 course began. I had the tuna tiradito and my husband had the steak tartare. I then had the black and blue gnocchi while he had the scallop (yes it was just one large one but delicious). For the third course I had a flavorful Wagyu while he had the snapper. Dessert was a tasty milk, tea, & honey lemon cake while he had the hummingbird cake - mine was definitely the favorite of the two but both were nice. Service was exceptional and constant. Highly recommend for a special occasion - not Cajun slanted but a very nice and enjoyable way to celebrate an anniversary!
If you're even thinking about dining here, just book the reservation. It's a culinary experience you'll remember forever. All of the food was fantastic. I absolutely loved that the servers came out and explained each and every dish. They use so many high quality ingredients that you can truly taste. I did the tasting menu and loved each dish. The dessert was unlike anything else I've had. It was citrusy and had layers within the white chocolate shell. My highlights were the blue crab tartlet, grouper, and Wagyu. This Wagyu legitimately melted away as I chewed it. It was so tender and flavorful.
My only gripe is the gnocchi didn't come in a super size bucket -- besides that everything from service to the ambiance was phenomenal.
This restaurant was on my list for a long time as its 2 block away from my house still never got a chance to go there. Reservation was very smooth while i had some questions about my dietary restrictions which they took care of it. I am usually type of guy who enjoys some good expensive wine than the food and i was impressed with both wine selections which my sommelier suggested me. Me and my gf really enjoyed all the food with lots of colours and flavours. Had a wonderful chef's special 7-10 course meal with my gf service and the explaination of the food was amazing but could have been more interactive service like waiter came once or twice and saw him at the end !! Lots of different flavours on food. Thank you soo much once again for doing vegetarian 10 dish 7 course menu. I would recommend them to try for michelin star or hopefully they can get it when michelin visited new orelans !
One of the best meals I have ever had and anyone I talk to that has been here said the same thing. Everything was perfect from the ambiance to the service to the food. I would fly to NOLA just to eat here . Favorites included: tuna crudo, roasted eggplant, coal roasted Iberico pork, the grilled royal red shrimp (a very NOLA type dish and the dry aged duck. You MUST order dessert, oh my gosh! The after dinner mint was incredible. The mint ice cream was incredible! The wine list was outstanding. I love the food in New Orleans, it's unlike anywhere else!
There are some restaurants that like to masquerade as fine dining and charge exorbitant fees but this is true fine dining. The price point is $$$$ for a reason. The restaurant is small, but cozy. Several waiters greet you as you get settled and cater with a flourish. The bathrooms are clean and everything is spotless. The menu is small and the options on the chef's special are not available in the a la carte menu. We opted for a la carte. We got the tuna crudo, which was lovely. Small pieces of fresh blue fin tuna paired with a passion fruit slush. While icy and a little strange texturally, the flavors worked well together. Then we had the coal-roasted iberico pork, which came with roasted okra and a tomato marmalade. While small, the pork was tender and paired well with the slight spice of the sauces. We also had a the black and blue gnocchi, which was slightly heavier, a fancy macaroni and cheese with truffle slices and crab. The entrees were grilled scallops and wagyu steak. The scallops were cooked well with a delightful sauce, soft and tender. I usually don't like scallops but these were quite well done. The Wagyu came with a nice tart veggie side and aligot that really paired well. Cooked to a lovely medium as requested. Finally, we had two desserts. While the blackberry opera cake was good, it did not wow us and after the full meal, it became a little tedious to eat. The custard tart though was fantastic, a rich, deep caramel flavor paired with the lighter milk sherbet (although I am unsure why they opted for sherbet over ice cream). In total, it cost about $300 for the meal (including tax and tip) for two. This is a splurge, something that I see only the wealthy and/or someone celebrating something important to be able to do. But it's fine dining for a reason and it truly knows what fine dining is.
This was a random stop because I wanted a good French 75. I ended up ordering a mezcal margarita instead funny enough. Anyway, very fancy and detail oriented restaurant. It's obvious that providing good service is important to the staff. The ambiance is romantic and dark. Must order the steak tartare.
Stumbled upon this place on our last trip to New Orleans and promised myself I'd try it this time. We went for the Friday 3 course lunch and it was incredible. So artfully presented and delicious. I would recommend this place to anyone. It's beautiful and so awe-inspiring. The service is exceptional and chefs are going all out. Loved it.
Came to NOLA for the first time for a birthday weekend with a friend and we both throughly loved everything from start to finish. From the impeccable service, ambiance, and phenomenal plates, we left feeling that this was one of the best tasting menus/ experience we ever had. We are already planning our next trip and will be definitely coming back. Until then we will be reminiscing over our amazing experience and that beautiful Waygu steak we had. Thank you to everyone who made my birthday dinner special and memorable! 10/10
One of my colleagues recommended this restaurant after having eaten here. He is Italian and said that the food was the most authentic Italian food he had tasted in the US. He said that the Zeppoli tasted like the ones his grandmother used to make. This intrigued me. Consequently, I took the team there for dinner. As soon as we walked in, my colleague was warmly welcomed by the sommelier and one of the servers. We started the meal with the August Old Fashioned which was well made. I usually do not like Gnocchi because it is too doughy. My colleague told me that I would love the Gnocchi at August. I gave it a shot by ordering the gnocchi "black and blue" with black truffles, jumbo lump crab, and parmesan. I did not regret my choice. The Gnocchi was tender and not doughy at all. My main dish was dry-aged duck breast with morel mushrooms, white asparagus, fava beans, and foie mousse. It had a crispy skin with tender meat. My colleagues had the Gulf Fish Pontchartrain. To finish the meal, I had the Zeppolli and a glass of Amontillado. This one one of the best dining experiences that I have experienced. read more

The service was perfect from the moment the door was opened. My husband hates creases on table cloths and there were no creases to be found. That shows the amount of care placed into the customer experience is thought through. The food was impeccable. Everything was cooked as requested. I had the wagyu entree, and I had it well done only because I'm expecting. I wish I was able to have the entree as it was supposed to be served because it was amazing. The whole Easter brunch menu was delicious and a balanced experience. The staff provided an excellent ambiance throughout the meal. Amazing experience all the way around. read more
Quite possibly the best meal of my life. And that's saying something! The enchanting dining room is beyond any expectation of a classic French restaurant in New Orleans. After being seated by the charming host, I ordered one of two spirit free cocktails called the Tonic de Jardin. It was refreshing and light which was the perfect antidote to my meal ahead. After ordering an appetizer and entree, a delectable amuse bouche was delivered and I'm cursing myself for botching the photo of it! An egg shell arrived filled with pea purée and burrata foam. There were toasted sunflower seeds mixed into the fluffy mix which rounded out the flavors perfectly. Next the escargot arrived which was prepared with black trumpet mushrooms, beer and Worcestershire. Event the celery leaves added to the complex ragout. Whoever decided to mix Brie and grits is a friggin'' genius! The duck three ways came after that and satisfied every desire I had of an entree. From the perfectly crisped duck breast to the seared Foie gras and the exceptional confit, this was the star of the meal. There were no dessert options available for gluten free, but the cappuccino made up for that! I had a little chocolate ice cream, but honestly I could have skipped that after the amazing meal. Exemplary service, exceptional cuisine and gorgeous ambiance. 10 out of 10! read more

Amazing service, the food is artistry. Wine list to die for, dessert is out of this world. A must anytime in NOLA! read more
We came here for Friday lunch because they didn't have any openings for dinner. We had the pre fix menu. We started with the blue fin tuna and the gnocchi blue and black and they were both good. We got the RED SNAPPER BOUILLABAISSE and TOURNEDOS AU POIVRE (steak) and we liked the red snapper better. We ended with the pear and the donut and liked the donut more. Our service was fine. All and all it was a good experience but I did think for all the hype it fell a little short. read more

To me, this was the most memorable dining experience of our trip. The service was impeccable. The cocktails (mine an off menu Paper Plane) were perfectly made. The food was a wonderful fusion of southern and New Orleans flavors with ingredients and preparation that are fresh and bright (reminiscent of west coast/California and European cuisine). Honestly it was 10/10. Highly recommend if you want a fine dining experience in the heart of New Orleans. read more
What an amazing way to explore the taste of food. Our greeter was friendly. Lee! Omg Lee! She did an amazing job in giving us the whole experience of fine dining! She made me feel like those fancy rich people in the movies ( thank you for that). The food was so high quality, the taste was excellent, presentation was like looking at fine art! I loved this experience and so did my husband. This was a treat to ourselves and I'm so glad the experience was great. We had a chef and another woman presenting the story of each plate to us. Lovely, lovely ,lovely!! read more

August My team and I enjoyed an exquisite dining experience at Restaurant August. For starters, we ordered every item off the cold appetizer menu, except the Kagoshima A5 Wagyu tartare. I was in charge of ordering the appetizers and desserts, and did not care for raw beef. I ordered the following for us to share: Crab and cucumber salad coconut, sumac, chilis $24 Terrine of foie gras coffee, Frangelico, beignet $32 Burrata and sweet pea salad fava beans, chicory, baby fennel, sorrel $17 Bluefin toro tiradito Louisiana citrus, passion fruit, mirliton $19 Jumbo white asparagus ramps, oyster cream, caviar $28 All of the appetizers were beautifully presented and delicious. If I had to pick a favorite, it would be the Foie Gras. A second favorite was the crab and cucumber salad for its refreshing taste. For the entree, 4 of us ordered the red snapper pontchartrain that was plated with shrimp, lump crabmeat, wild mushrooms, sauce bearnaise $48. One person ordered the pan seared grouper that was plated with heirloom carrots, grapefruit, persillade $44. Everyone was very satisfied with their entree. For dessert, I ordered the following assortment to share: Golden milk mille-feuille puff pastry, banana whipped ganache, honey Coconut semifreddo LA strawberries, lime, coconut crisps Pavlova meringue lemon, evoo cream, pistachios Dark chocolate pot de crème sea salt, pretzel, espresso ice cream This was quite an extravagant dinner and we enjoyed it very much. The waitstaff took excellent care of us and were very attentive. The restaurant itself was classy and elegant, tastefully decorated. It's rated in the top 5 restaurants in NOLA in my book! read more
My favorite restaurant we had the pleasure of visiting in New Orleans Do yourself a favor and do the chefs tasting here! I think about this meal a lot. It was an ideal dining experience to say the least. The service was unparalleled. The atmosphere was sophisticated and fit the mood of the service, food and drinks. The sommelier made the wine experience a blast! The chef cooked everything to perfection. Wish I could do this meal all over again. Loved it read more
We were looking for a decent sophisticated place to eat and came across this joint online. Located downtown so parking can be challenging but there is a decent sized parking lot 100ft away. The ambiance is very classy, sleek and colonial-esque. We did the tasting menu because, why not lol. We enjoyed some amazing flavors and combinations that were anything but practical. Very pleased with the food and portions and even more pleased with the service. The dishes came in good fashion and time with in depth explanation of what we were eating. All in all I felt this place is ideal for every type of occasions. A true taste of southern new orleans culture and hospitality. I recommend this place to anybody and everybody read more

Went here a few weeks ago while visiting NO. This place is amazing! We got the red snapper and the wagyu steak; both delicious, but the red snapper was absolutely fantastic! We had two desserts that were incredible. One was mint and chocolate, and the other strawberry. We sat at the bar with Kailey the bartender. She was so friendly and made the place feel extra inviting. We'll definitely be back to visit her and get more snapper. read more

It is GORGEOUS here. Ambiance is a 10/10. Service was good - not amazing. Not really all that gluten free accommodating - no bread/pasta - they push fish/pork - if you like those (sadly I dont). They came up with a salad for me for an app - really wanted the lamb but no GF pasta. Had the duck. Was delicious. Small bites but tasty. Pavlova dessert was best bite of the night. read more

Hello Jen. K, thank you for dining with us at Restaurant August and…
Visitng NOLA I wanted 1 night fine dining and glad I did. Make reservations in advance. I'm glad I did. We arrived on time and sat quickly. There were three different rooms, and unfortunately, it was not as good of an ambiance as the front main room. It's definitely a better vibe by the entrance. Our server seemed to be new, and I get it. We need to start somewhere. But, the additional server was a veteran. She was very nice and on top of things. Food: Grilled Strip Steak Red Snapper Pontchartrain Complimentary- Amuse-bouche (Custard flavor) The food was delcious. The steak was tender and cooked perfectly. Tupac raved about the Red Snapper. He says it was well composed with great flavors. I would've given a 5 had we been seated in a better area. read more

Beautiful restaurant located across the street from the Windsor Court Hotel. Impeccable service, food and wine selections. This was our 2nd night in New Orleans and we're so happy we were able to get in. We were happy to see most people dressed properly, jeans and a nice sport coat for men. No improperly dress people here! You'll get a waiter and assist ours was a total delight! Fun and engaging, I wish I could remember her name! We'll worth it! All dishes were fantastic but that gnocchi was to die for!! I could have had another serving it was so delicious!! It's a must when in New Orleans! read more

Traditional amusement-bouche is delicious as always.The service, atmosphere and kitchen are well worth a visit if you are a true foodie! read more
The food is well portioned, flavorful and even whimsical in many aspects. In particular the fish ponchatrain was probably my favorite. The beef was an admiral souz vide style prep but the sides were better. The staff were prompt and reasonably attentive-we were a large group which brings me to what I disliked. We were situated on the second floor. This is a big open cathedral style ceilinged room with hardwood floors and exposed brick wall. It is an acoustical nightmare of impressive proportions. I could not hear my colleagues on either immediate side of me yet alone across the table. I wonder if some styled changes could diminish the ressonance-I'm not suggesting they drop carpet or anything like that but there has to be something that can be done to offset the reverberations of ordinary conversations in large groups. It made the 3 hour experience exceptionally annoying almost to the point of unpleasant. read more

Dear John...I still love you, even if you're behavior leaves something to be desired and you are no longer involved in day to day operations. This place sets the standard for me. Always. Still serving the beautiful egg cup custard as a starter. So fancy pants. Then I had a Crawfish Cauliflower Bisque that is quite possibly one of the best things I ever put in my mouth. I could live on this alone. Finished with Crab Gnocci, which was very filling. "Maybe" a little salty, though my dining partner didn't think so. A trip to NOLA would never be complete without a meal here. Well worth the price. read more

The next time you're in NO, make a reservation at August! You'll thank us, I promise. FIVE STAR REVIEW The meal started out with a "gift from the chef." A savory leek custard, topped with pumpkin mousse and a sprinkle of sweet & salty crunch, presented in a perfectly carved eggshell. We were given spoon bread as well, which was the lightest, airiest and creamiest corn muffin ever to cross my lips. The sommelier told us that the secret ingredient was sour cream. I guess the secret is out now! Our sommelier suggested Pinot Noir. Monty chose Belle Glos Las Alturas. Let's just say that we started shopping for it online immediately after the first taste. It has a fuller body than a typical Pinot Noir, so smooth and juicy. Such a perfect pairing. Monty had the pecan-smoked venison tartare with celery root and mountain rose apple. The flavors and textures were out of this world! We combined a few bites of the tartare with a bit of spoon bread. Omg, I'll say it again: Out. Of. This. World. I ordered the gnocchi "black and blue" with black truffles, jumbo lump crab and parmesan. Tender, yet slightly firm, with a delicate, pillowy texture, but the truffle took it to a whole 'nuther level! They gnocchi'd it out of the park with this one. For dinner we shared duck three ways with Bayou Cora grits, foie gras, confit, chestnut mushrooms and cherry bounce. Y'all, I've had foie gras, but never before like this. An intensely flavorful silky texture that literally bursts on your tongue. It was absolutely divine. Dessert was hummingbird cake with creole cheesecake, bruleed banana and pineapple ice cream. I just don't know what to say except the pastry chef knows exactly what she is doing!! This was definitely meal to remember with the love of my life, my favorite dining companion, and my partner in culinary escapades. I love our journey of flavorful adventures, seasoned with spice and a love that mirrors the diversity of a well-crafted menu. Here's to more delicious chapters in our love story, baby, where every bite is a beautiful reminder of the incredible life we share! Cheers!! read more

I wanted a fancy dining experience and found this restaurant. I made reservations at Opentable for 2 at 6:30. They do check your proof of vaccination at the door. The interior of the restaurant is stunning! We ordered both a cold and hot appetizer. Small portions, but so delicious! I also ordered a Sunset 504. I enjoyed the drink. We ordered the snapper and duck. Luckily, they provided complimentary bread and butter because our entrees took quite a bit of time to arrive. One of the female servers was sweet enough to get us another order of Diet Coke and a beer. The wait was worth it! The main dishes were really good. Can't decide which I liked better! The male waiter ended up giving us their three dessert offerings because of our wait for the entrees. Really sweet of them! They were all really amazing. Glad we got to taste them. The bathrooms are located upstairs. They were very clean. Even though we waited for the main dishes, we still enjoyed eating here. The staff is great! Highly recommend! read more
Had a beautiful meal here during our 30 hour layover in New Orleans. I was impressed with the ambiance and service, but the real showstopper was the food. We opted for the chefs tasting menu with the wine pairing. It highlighted local cuisine in a modern way and was so creative and delicious. I look forward to another meal here when we revisit this beautiful city. read more

August is an impeccable experience. From the moment you walk in the door to when you leave, every single detail is seamlessly perfect. The food comes in a generous portion and each element is carefully balanced for the optimal dish both taste-wise and visually. Every bite is an explosion of flavor and craft. The service is beyond anything you can imagine. They work to create a truly special experience for each individual guest. The restaurant itself is gorgeous and tables are arranged in a way to feel cozy and not cramped. The smaller dining room is intimate. Truly, I cannot begin to explain how amazing this experience was. It's worth every single penny. Additionally, they were incredibly careful with my food allergies. This was truly an experience, not just a meal. read more
The historic space is beautifully finished and chandeliers light the rooms. Teams of servers make sure the experience is dignified while friendly. The food is what you would expect from what is readily recognized as the perennial top restaurant in one of the best cities for food in the US. If you are looking for Louisiana cuisine using fresh local produce with the highest of standards - you should put August high on your list. Every single dish was delicious and prepared with care - by serious professionals. The oysters, redfish with red shrimp and the sticky toffee pudding were highlights. The somm may very well know the wines, but was ineffective when sharing much about them or how they might pair. I will say there were many value oriented choices on the list, which is very nice for a restaurant of this stature. You would be very lucky to spend an evening at August in New Orleans. Head over to the Polo Lounge at The Windsor Court for a nightcap following your much deserved meal. read more

We thought this would be our top meal of the trip. We felt the decor was fine. I'm not sure the bar area makes a very good first impression. We were encouraged to only have two courses despite wanting to order more. The bathroom is very difficult to get to it you have mobility issues. The whole meal only took about 75 minutes which was shocking for a fine dining experience. We enjoyed the appetizers more than the entrees. The gnocchi black and blue with black trufffle and blue crab was one of the highlights of the meal. The coal roasted ibérico pork with lentils, and cauliflower was surprisingly better than I thought it would be. They also hand a special of fried squash bliss filled with crab over a bean purée. They were excellent but the beans didn't do much for the dish. I had the red snapper Pontchartrain with seafood mushrooms and bernaise. The sauce was WAY too lemony to the point it puckered our mouths. We also got the duck three ways. Sadly the confit was so crispy you couldn't taste it and half the duck breast was over cooked, the half that wasn't was delicious. The foie gras was nice too. Our dessert was sickeningly sweet and they seemed confused about whether it was honey or pumpkin flavored and we couldn't tell which seemed odd. The stand out dishes raised this up a star but we wondered if we would have had a better experience with the tasting menu? read more

This elegant fine-dining establishment with it's modern French-Creole offering is a "must" when in NOLA. It's well-known, delightful and highly unlikely to disappoint. APPETIZERS CRAB AND CUCUMBER SALAD (coconut, sumac, chilis) - refreshing, cold appetizer. GNOCCHI "BLACK AND BLUE" (black truffles, lump blue crab, parmesan) - this hot appetizer was terrific. ENTREES RED SNAPPER PONTCHARTRAIN (shrimp, lump crabmeat, mushrooms, bernaise sauce) - memorable, excellent choice. GRILLED PRIME STRIP STEAK (sunchoke gratin, soubise, truffles, bordelaise) - good, enjoyable. DESSERT GOLDEN MILK MILLE FEUILLE (puff pastry, banana whipped ganache, honey) - nice, pleasant, pleasing end to the meal. We enjoyed all our choices and the Gnocchi "Black and Blue along with the Red Snapper Pontchartrain were the true standouts. Would put this in the category of an occasion restaurant where the formality of an upscale night out makes a celebration feel extraordinary. It checks all the fine dining boxes for service that makes you feel special, architecture that impresses, and an overall experience that is unforgettable. Not quite sure it's a restaurant that I'd repeat, but this is definitely a "must" while in New Orleans. read more

What is the parking situation?
Does everyone at the table have to do the tasting menu?
Restaurant August does require full-table participation for the tasting menu in order to guarantee an enjoyable pace of the meal for everyone in the party.
Is a sport jacket required for dinner?
No jacket is needed. Let me know if you have any other questions.
What are the vegetarian options here? I don't see any on the menu
There was a whole vegetarian tasting menu when I went, and everything was available a la carte. We actually all agreed that that the vegetarian dishes were better than the meat dishes. I imagine their menu changes faster than they update it online…
