"A large group of friends and I decided to eat here last night. We made a reservation for about 16. The majority of the time we were there, we were the only people there. When we arrived, there were two people at another table. The were gone by the time we were getting our appetizers. We all ordered drinks and entrees. We enjoyed our food and each other 's company. The trouble came when it came time to pay the bill. First, let me say. We didn 't walk in wearing dresses, suits and ties. Most of us were in jeans with blouses or collared shirts. All pinky fingers were essentially in place (meaning, not sticking out). We aren 't those type of people. So I would not classify us as fancy people. We don 't need to put on a show for anyone. When we asked the waiter to split our bill up for us (since there were 16 of us and not everyone carries cash with them...not to mention that were were the ONLY people in the restaurant at this time) he flatly REFUSED! We believe his concern was that he would not be able to get the automatic gratuity that would be tacked on when you have groups over a certain size. This negative review is not because you would not split our bill, sir. It is for your judgement of myself and my friends. We did not behave badly or belligerently. And what you may not know is that everyone who was sitting at that table has climbed a ladder to get where they are today. We all work for a living. Everyone at that table makes 100K+ year. And we all are very well aware of the fact that you live off our tips. So you opted to choose the automatic gratuity in favor of one that would have likely ranged anywhere from 20-30% of all of our checks for being nice enough to accommodate our request. So if you decide to eat here, be aware that you are likely being judged. And if you aren 't evaluated as being a high enough class for this fine dining establishment , just feel free to leave them the 10% tip they are already expecting anyway."

I'm a tourist at New Orleans. We discovered this small restaurant while walking this afternoon. The experience was excellent: the onion soup, the salad, and the nice attention, even though we arrived out of schedule (3:15 pm). I recommend it for sure, slightly pricely, just as everything else at New Orleans.

this is an adorable little french restaurant in a former home on octavia. there were only two other tables the night we were there, and our server jon took impeccable care of all of us. the wine was great. the onion soup was perfect, just what i had been craving. i loved it from the moment i walked in to the moment i left. the coq au vin was not that great, but my date loved his steak au poivre. raspberry sorbet was perfect.

Not worth it! It seems like they purchase the cheapest ingredients available. I ordered the New York strip for $40, and every bite was packed with fat. My girlfriend had the BBQ shrimp for $30, which came with only 7 shrimp—definitely not jumbo. Then came the bill, and they automatically added a 20% gratuity for just the two of us. Overall, it's very overpriced, the food quality is lacking, and the customer service is nonexistent. Voir le carte

My girlfriend and I ate dinner here on the weekend of New Years. I had the duck, medium, and it was delicious! It came with greens and potatoes. She had the BBQ shrimp. It was a little spicy, which is a lot for me, but nonetheless is was also very good. The ambiance was a bit lacking. I'm not sure if it was the decor or the lack of R. Kelly elevator music, but I felt like something was missing. The prices were a bit high for the area. If it was near Coquette's then I'd expect $40 entrees, but it isn't so I wasn't. It was shocking, but the food was honestly delicious. I had a dinner for two groupon that was worth $40. The groupon required an order of two entrees. I immediately realized that t...

My family came here for Christmas Day last year (2015) and were very pleased with our meals. I find that a lot of the menu items were either a huge hit or miss. I started with the escargot, very well seasoned, nice and buttery. Then we had the barbecue shrimp and that was my favorite part of the whole dining experience. If you come to this restaurant you must get the shrimp, the sauce is so good and the shrimps are huge. I split the NY strip and the red fish dish with another person at my table. Both were amazing, especially the steak. The steak was perfectly seasoned, thick cut, and cooked to perfection. The red fish flavor was immaculate. However, my dad got the pork tenderloin and it was...
