Chef was able to accommodate my many food allergies and give me a Grand Tasting menu experience that was truly sensational. Made my remote worker holiday party the talk of my virtual office colleagues. The many recommendations to come here were spot on. My server Grayson was amazing. Overall an exceptional dining experience.

We were looking forward to a dish we learned about on a television program but were disappointed to find they no longer made that dish. After making reservations we were surprised to find that we were the only customers in the restaurant. Our server was very annoying calling everyone honey and baby and with a strange laugh. Except for one dish, the duck, he food was underwhelming. They continuously refilled our cola glasses and then charged us for each refill. We will not be returning, but I doubt they will be there much longer anyway.

We did the 5 course tasting menu and it was exquisite. Definitely a culinary experience with the wine pairing. Koji ribeye melted in your mouth. The scallops were divine. I even wanted more of the pallet cleanser, it was so good.

We did the eight course tasting menu and chef John knocked it out of the park!! The progression was perfect, the spacing between courses was good and the play on southeast Asian flavors was right on the money . Look forward to my next trip to NOLA.

Food was not as I remembered. Crab was super fishy, scallops were slimy. Drinks and service was good. When I went years ago I loved it and wanted to take a friend.
