Farm-to-table and authentic New Orleans cuisine come together in the French Quarter at M bistro, where the chefs take an indigenous approach to the preparation of meats, seafood and produce from farmers in Louisiana, Texas, Mississippi and Alabama. Three velvet-draped semi-private “Cheater’s Booths” and a private Wine Room offer additional venues for a special meal.

Our restaurant and lounge are conveniently located on the third floor lobby level of The Ritz-Carlton, New Orleans.

Had a fabulous server - Pamela who made us all feel like VIPS. The food was great and her recommendations were spot on. We told her we were nurses and she provided our dessert on a special plate decorated in chocolate saying we love nurses.

Special thanks to our waitress for the night, Luna who ensured that my husband and I were well taken care of for our anniversary dinner. The complimentary bites were a great treat. Luna was very attentive and made us feel extremely welcomed! Overall, the ambience was good, the food was okay, but the service was definitely something I would return for.

Overall an amazing restaurant; however, disappointed because I noted it was a birthday celebration and they didn’t even acknowledge it or ask or anything.

The food at M Bistro was all exceptionally delicious. The service was superb, and the ambiance is fantastic- a truly beautiful venue, as is the entire Ritz Carlton. Our only 2 minor complaints are that the restaurant is difficult to find in the hotel. It's on the third floor behind the bar. We wandered around a while trying to figure out where it is, as directions are not displayed anywhere. The second is the coffee is similar to New York coffee- more watery than we're used to in New Orleans. But all in all, I heartily recommend M Bistro, and we'll be happy to return. As for the food, I had the redfish, which was really outstanding. The oysters Rockefeller were a unique recipe, but excellent.

Made reservation 2 months in advance to arrive and be told there would be a 30 minute wait. Staff is very nice but appear to be inexperienced. Food ranged from mediocre to bad.

Inexperienced server, far from the caliber expected for the Ritz Carlton, such a Gorgeous restaurant and a $500 lunch. Appetizers without app plates, Wine took a good 20 minutes to be brought to the table, Server did not pour wine into wine glasses at all. Steaks without steak knives, Asked for local directions and her respond was that I should check Google 🙄 Gorgeous Hotel, And a Truly Beautiful restaurant.
