Be sure and ask for her and she will make you feel like a VIP every time she visits the table... The food portions were solid. The taste of every dish is mesmerizing and makes you feel like you are on a roller coaster food adventure. The Crab Claws were a perfect way to start the evening. The Scallops, The Swordfish, The Kids Manicotti were the selections for entrees, and they did not disappoint. Every bite left you craving more and more and more. Beautiful presentation and plating, coupled with simple ingredients and flavors... And the Mocktails, were a nice compliment to sip on throughout the dinner. Very inventive and refreshing. Whenever the parents end up picking at the Kids Manicotti dish, you know the food is phenomenal. Nothing but clean plates tells the entire story! A must visit for anyone visiting...

Fried oysters was good but the bacon jam was really what made the dish shine. Redfish was nice. Surprisingly mild. Veggies it came with were cooked nicely. Which it came with some sort of carb/starch. Shrimp and grits was a miss here unfortunately. Grits were nice. Had good texture without being graining. The peppers also really shone through. The shrimp however were super off. Not cleaned, odd texture, and the flavor was that of a dish sponge. tasted so soapy. I have no idea what happened here. But we didnt complain about it or send it back. Not sure if this is just how they make their dish and maybe it's just that we didnt like it.

As we stayed late at Jazz Fest, we were able to shift our Resy later quite easily after a request directly to Gabrielle. We walked in (after parking easily just a block down the street!) and were immediately seated by the friendly hostess. Our sever Rosalind was informative and just sassy enough to be totally fun! We started with the Duck Pate which was awesome, especially with the Orange Marmalade (such an unexpected and terrific combination!). We ran out of toasts, so it was a good thing I had not been able to resist getting the Leidenheimer Loaf starter as well (I'm a baker, and just couldn't not get this excellent French bread!). Then it was time for me to dig into my Slow Roasted Duck, which was super tender and tasty! Definitely a highlight. And then it was time for dessert. I was totally tempted by the Chocolate Pecan Pie, but the bartender happened to walk by. I asked him what his favorite dessert was and he stopped dead in his tracks. He smiled and told me the Lemon Chess Pie was an unforgettable experience and that was what he always gets. I like lemon, but it is not something that normally draws my attention. But, if one is going to ask for a recommendation, one would be an idiot to ignore it - Lemon Chess Pie it was to be. And he was so right!!!! Just enough lemon to give some tartness, and a velvety texture that was sublime. If they have it, get it! Totally worth the trip to the Treme! Highly recommend!

Anyway, we were seated immediately, and the waiter gave us the list of specials. I started off with a perfectly made Sazerac that turned into 2 Sazeracs rather quickly. The chef gave us some free bruschetta that was delicious, then came the free bread which was a small hot loaf of Leidenheimers. So good! I ordered a Caprese salad to start which was simple and light, much needed after the doubling up of carbs. For an Entree I got the duck which was a fried half of a duck with a raspberry sauce with spinach and sweet potatoes. Phenomenal. Then they gave me a little birthday dessert which was some sort of chocolate covered ice cream that was lit on fire. This was a great meal with great service. Who could ask for anything more?

Service: 3/10 Service truly matters--sometimes even more than the food itself. Unfortunately, during our visit, the service left much to be desired. My wife and I were the only guests in the entire restaurant on a Friday night (6:30), yet the service was surprisingly slow. Our server lacked basic hospitality skills. He wasn't welcoming, barely spoke above a whisper, and failed to engage with us at all. We had to move our own dirty dishes just so he could place the next course on the table. When he brought to-go containers and the check, he said nothing--no "thank you," no "have a good evening," no "hope to see you again." Just silence. It was awkward, especially considering we were the only table in the place. When my wife's salad arrived, she had to ask if any salad dressing was available. The server mentioned two types, then vaguely referenced a third one he couldn't pronounce. Ideally, he should have asked for her dressing preference when she first placed the order. He gets points for bringing our food and drinks. Food Sweet Chilli Wings: 9/10; these came out piping hot, and the sauce was finger-licking good. Chicken Curry: 9/10; you could taste the love. Somebody spent time making this dish. Creamy and fall-off-the-bone tender chicken. Candied Yams: 9/10; tender potatoes and not too sweet. Mac and Cheese: 8/10 Patty: 8/10; light and flaky shell, and well-seasoned filling. Could've used more filling, though. Jerk Shrimp Salad: 6/10; the greens were fresh, but the salad itself was very basic--there was nothing particularly unique or elevated about it. The shrimp portion was quite skimpy, and unfortunately, the shrimp tasted like they had been previously frozen. To make matters worse, they were served with the tails still on, which made the salad awkward and messy to eat. Honestly, we could've recreated a similar dish at home with a bag of mixed greens and some jerk seasoning. Coco Bread: 5/10; The bread was light and fluffy, but tasted like air. It was forgettable. Update: 8/10; I heated the bread in the air fryer the following day, and added some salted butter. Talk about a level up! That's how it should be served in the restaurant, warm with butter. Pineapple Ginger drink: 7/10; promoted as freshly prepared. It was ginger-forward, and would've benefited from carbonation. But they also serve ginger beer. Ambiance It's an adorable restaurant filled with colorful paintings of New Orleans. The huge backdrop/mural behind the bar pays homage to the city's architecture with its depiction of window shutters. And it's airy because of the high ceilings. The wooden tables and chairs are a nice touch, and would feel right at home in a bed and breakfast.

I tried ordering turkey wings? Turkey necks and oysters and neither were available so I opted for steak medium well, red beans and green beans; my daughter ordered the loaded potato with pulled pork (flavored amazingly) and mac and cheese (absolutely horrible) my husband ordered salmon and shrimp, dirty rice and green beans. Steak came out the 1st time, it was well done.... Sent back for a 2nd time; came out and this time the steak is a different cut where it's thick on one side and thin on the other side and it was done and the thick side RAW at this point I'm irritated and it was sent back and I decided not to get anything else. The green beans were definitely from the can with no flavor. My husband's salmon was ok, the red beans were good and the dirty rice as well. My daughter's food came out and although the pulled pork was good the rest was a no go which threw the entire meal off. It took forever for the food to come although we were the only ones! I tried my best to be positive in it all but it just did not work out and I definitely will not be giving it another try when I'm back visiting,
