We got there and they told us our reservation was not in their system, but I did receive the confirmation email from Open Table. They said something like the reservation never made it fully into their system. We were celebrating our 10 year wedding anniversary so this was terrible fornky wife and I. My wife ended up crying. They ended up sitting us a crappy table in a high traffic area up against a huge post. There were several other tables available but they would not move us. We asked a few more times to be moved and they continued to said no and were very rude. We left and went to Magnolias where they did not have an open reservation but we let them know about the experience we just had at Grill 225 and it was our 10 year wedding anniversary and they told us to give them a few minutes as they felt so bad and they could see how upset my wife was as she had tears in her eyes. A few minutes later they called us up and walked us to a table where they had a happy anniversary card on the table. Magnolias made our night so special.

We had a very big dining table. Maybe they knew we were hungry-ha. Our waiter was super and had years of experience in the French Quarter of New Orleans….quite the professional and gentleman… and sorry I do not still have his name but he was great!
