    The decor, service, and food were A+. Sadly, when we were first seated, the noise level in the restaurant was so high that we (party of 3) were forced to yell at the tops of our lungs to have conversations. Our reservation was for the Friday night before Mardi Gras Tuesday, so we didn't blame restaurant personnel. What nearly ruined our dinner experience was the lack of class displayed by the diners, who behaved like they were at a football game instead of a fine dining restaurant AND many men were dressed in golf shirts rather than in suits and ties. "Clueless" took on a whole new meaning for us!

    AMAZING dinner expereience. Like so many restaurants nowadays it was so loud I could barely hear anyone (and it gets worse as I get older) but the food and the service were both perfect. There were 4 of us celebrating a birthday and not one crumb of food was left on the table by the end of the night.

    Wonderful dinner at Arnaud’s tonight. Drinks and food were of exceptionally high quality. Service was impeccable. All together well worth the price. We started with Oysters Katherine. I then had a Caesar salad large enough to give a sizable portion to my wife. She then moved on to the Trout Almondiene while I enjoyed the Veal Tournados. I then watched as my wife enjoyed the individual Bananas Foster prepared tableside just for her. Very enjoyable evening.

    Once we asked our waiter to move from a large very boisterous table (which they gladly did) we had a great experience. Good food & great service! Will be back.

    Arnaud's is awesome! Smoked fish appetizer was one of the best things I have ever eaten. Drinks were great, food was very tasty and served hot. Server had a great personality and was very attentive. Great place to celebrity spot as well! Highly recommend for a special meal.
