    An exquisite and wonderful holiday experience. Joseph did a spectacular job guiding our family through specialties and unique New York flavors. We topped off our special meal with a trip upstairs to see the Mardi Gras gowns.

    First time dining here. Everything was perfect. The food was amazing. Felt a little rushed to order, but once we paced with our server, drinks and dishes came out fantastically.. staff was knowledgeable. A must try, in my opinion.. We have been to some very fine dining, and this is in our top four. Well done, nola.

    Ambience was great. The food was okay. There was no rush. I did not feel like they needed to turn the table so we were able to dine at a leisurely pace and enjoy the evening.

    Shrimp Arnaud seemed a little less spicy (less horseradish) than it used to be and it wasn’t as tasty as in the past. Otherwise, the food ranged from good to excellent.

    We live about an hour away so have spent considerable time in many of New Orleans’ finest restaurants, old and new. We chose Arnaud’s for our first Reveillon dinner and couldn’t have been more pleased with our choice! Excellent food, impeccable service in the finest New Orleans tradition.

    The four course réveillon menu was very good. Ample selections for each individual’s taste. We had a party of six and seating was a little tight in our corner area.

    Arnaud's was a wonderful dining experience! There staff is well-trained in how to make customers feel special. Our food was excellent, and the drinks were great. The bonus was the small Mardi Gras museum which was very interesting. Highly recommend!
