For 60 years The Rib Room has enjoyed its reputation for outstanding food and service. Patrons have found the massive windows facing Royal Street the perfect backdrop for Crescent City dining. The woody, Old English atmosphere, and high ceiling invite guests to sit back and stay awhile. The softly lit and equally comfortable Rib Room bar offers the ideal setting for sophisticated beverages and extensive wine cellar selections. Diners requiring privacy may choose from the Pipkin, Wine Cellar, or Roundtable rooms, perfect for small gatherings; each discreetly removed from the main dining floor. On the upper level of the Rib Room, we feature a private room for groups of up to 40 guests. Winner of the prestigious Zagat Award, The Rib Room offers classics such as slow-roasted prime rib of beef, aged steaks, and fresh Louisiana seafood.

    Food was okay but not spectacular. The service was rushed and unprofessional. Staff leaning over my partner’s plate to grab things while he was eating, tossing plates on the table and rushing away. Overall, not an enjoyable experience and one we will not be repeating

    Short rib is usually very tender and tasty. Sauce was extremely salty. Rib was dry and tough, and did not even appear to be a short rib, but beef cut to appear the same. I don't think it was the case, but it was much less than I have become accustomed to enjoying at the Rib Room.

    We made a reservation for 6:00 pm. It was not a busy evening and was seated right away. They served us water and bead in a paper bag. We were never waited on to get drinks or our food order even after 15 minutes…..! Servers walked all around us and even the host that seated us saw us and never even asked if we had been taken care of. Don’t waste your time or money here!! Too many other options for eating in the French Quarter.

    Worst dining experience in over 20yrs living here. Was walked to our table and found a dirty tray in my husband's seat (along with no napkin). Over 10 minutes to be greeted then waited 25 minutes for our first course and 15-20 for each one after that. Food was underseasoned and either undercooked (carrots, veg in the soup) or overcooked (rubbery creme brulee, tough osso bucco). Numerous items were literally cold. I cannot believe we spent $150 on this awful meal and that, at no point while we were sending half-eaten plates of food back to the kitchen, did anyone even bother to ask if something was wrong. Maybe this kind of food and service is acceptable for tourists visiting from Minnesota and wearing Mardi Gras beads in July, but locals who know fine dining should steer clear.

    Wonderful dining experience for 48th anniversary lunch. The staff were so accommodating and honored our request for a table by the window. We enjoyed the Royal Street view, the ambiance and especially the food. We both had kings cut prime rib, turtle soup and Caesar salad. All were delicious and chef came to our table to make sure that we were satisfied. Highly recommend if you want an excellent dining experience
