    Attentive but unobtrusive service, beautiful presentation, exquisite flavors, wonderful views, and a very serious wine list coupled with reasonable house wines by the glass.

    I believe they changed their pricing since I visited over a year ago. Food quality excellent, service was great in the beginning with the server knowing the menu, but at the end of the meal she was nowhere to be found- had to find another server to get our bill and wait for them to come get it. The wine glass prices in my opinion were very overpriced at $30.00 per glass with limited selection. If you want the view and ambience then go, but if you want a fine dining experience with the same quality & service and better value, best to visit the many other fine dining restaurants NOLA has to offer.

    Food and service were impecable. Enjoyed an early lunch with my family and everyone was blown away by everything. Roasted brie, filet, ribeye and asparagus were all incredible. Cheesecake and bread pudding were spectacular. Nice view over the river.

    I had a great time. My steak was a little cold but maybe they were busy due to the Super Bowl. I loved the complimentary drinks due to the wait even though I had a reservation. Took a little over an hour to get 1 steak, lob tail, and gumbo. I will dine again.

    Very beautiful restaurant. Food was amazing I had the filet and the wedge salad. Also a nice glass of sparkling rose. Staff was very nice. To make it perfect the waitess would have come sooner and more often. I can't wait to go back! Bravo!
