Lovely & tasty, as always. We had a super helpful young lady waiter. She was delightful. Food is always excellent. We went on the early side — 11:30 — so at first it was wonderfully quiet and even as things picked up & families came in with children, it was not too loud ever, just festive.

Darla and Daniel were incredible waiters. Knowledgeable, great interaction. Food was perfect! Fried oysters with tasso gravy reduction was bomb. For those who don't know, tasso is Cajun smoked pork legs with extremely deep smoke. Then duck confit, thigh and drumb. Finished with peppermint ice cream and glacee drizzled with chocolate.

I’ve been going to Broussard’s since I was a little girl. My dad and I would come here when visiting family in New Orleans and it was our place. This was the first year I came here with my fiancé and got to tell him stories of my dad. The food has always been wonderful, the memories, delightful.

Oh my lord!! We had the night of our lives! Jeff is the most amazing captain! He led his service team to provide us the most amazing experience! The food was better than sex! The drinks were crafted with love! After dinner Jeff gave us a first class tour of the 40,000 sq ft restaurant and museum! We then went to the bar where Ruby and Danny continued to treat us like royalty! Ruby even called a personal friend to drive us home safely! We are going back this evening! Last night was AMAZING! Here is to Arnaud’s! Jeff! Ruby! Danny! And the entire staff! What a team and what an experience! SALUTE!
