    This was our first time visiting Seraphine and it did not disappoint. We ordered the croquettes, rabbit cavatappi, tuna crudo, and duck fat fingerling potatoes and everything tasted delicious and well balanced. Our server was kind and attentive to the fact we had a show to make at DPAC, and checked on us just the right amount. The sazerac cocktail was a bit too sweet for our taste, but the mocktail V&T was delicious especially on a warm evening. The outside courtyard with its strung lights and fountain make for a lovely, peaceful ambience. We will definitely be back!

    One of the best dining experiences I’ve had in a long time. The service was exceptional from the initial greeting until the end. The food and drinks were terrific. The shrimp and grits are the best. The sautéed green beans with fennel salad was unique.

    Easily the most solid, knowledgeable, attentive waiter I've ever had. Not sure what his base pay is but please raise it.

    Was very accommodating to us even though some of our party was late to our reservation. We really appreciate them for that. Their fixed menu was amazing as well! Everyone loved what they ordered. We will be back!

    I lived in New Orleans for four years and generally don’t like going to Cajun or creole restaurants because they don’t usually measure up. Seraphine delivers.
