Best Lunch Restaurants in French Quarter

Enjoyed our dining experience at RedFish last night however the musician outside playing in the street was excessively loud and right in front of the windows. I feel bad for the establishment because had we not had a reservation I would have quickly moved past it to a quieter location. Luckily we were seated in the back and could not hear it too much. Service and dinner was exceptional - loved the cornbread !!

Booked dinner for my wife's 50th birthday. It turned out to be the perfect choice! We were well taken care of by Jessica (our server) and the staff. The food was amazing, I had the chicken Tableau, and my wife had the shrimp and grits. The Chicken Tableau was one the best chicken entrees I've ever had. My wife had rave reviews of her shrimp and grits as well. My wife said this was exactly the dining experience she was looking for to celebrate her birthday.

Brennan is simply the best restaurant in New Orleans. Every part our dining experience was perfect from being greeted at reception to having our server help my husband on with his coat. The menu choices are amazing. My husband is still talking about his redfish choice. I chose duck. It’s the best I have ever tasted. Our waiter was so friendly. We had so many different servers attending to every need imaginable. What a delightful special place to have experienced. I can’t wait to go back.

We had a great meal at Justine. The green salad, shrimp and grits, and peppermint sundae were delicious. It was a colder night in New Orleans ( 57 degrees on Christmas Eve). I don’t know if they don’t have heat in the restaurant but I wished I had a coat on and the couple next to us complained about the cold and kept their down jackets on all night. It really was not that cold but I was surprised.

As always Antoine's was excellent. Antoine's is the #1 fine dining experience available anywhere in New Orleans, and it has never disappointed. My wife and I have been coming here for 27 years and have enjoyed each visit. The staff was professional, courteous, and easy to summon if we had a request for something. They have a pride in their establishment that comes across in their dealings with customers. Very few restaurants, even in New Orleans, can say that any longer. Russell and Roland were both consummate professionals and took exceptionally good care of us. And it was great to see Charles Carter again. Charles waited on us on our first visit 27 years ago and many times since, and has always made sure we're taken care of. The Reveillon menu dishes were prepared perfectly and were delicious as always. I was pleasantly surprised to see a NY Strip as a choice for the main course and both my wife and I received our steaks cooked perfectly. We even had a special request for dessert and it was handled with no problems. If you're coming to New Orleans, Antoine's is a must. How many restaurants can say they have been in business with the same family since 1840? I hope to still be around to enjoy a visit in their 200th anniversary year in 2040.
