Best Historic Restaurants in French Quarter

A delicious brunch and so nice to see the musicians. They went table to table and took requests. The place is beautiful. It was a leisurely brunch (took 2 hours) with service on the slow side. Make sure you aren’t in a rush. The food was fantastic! Everyone in our party gobbled up their entrees and we all split the king cake for dessert. It is New Orleans after all.

Always a pleasure eating at Tujague’s. The food is fresh and tasty and follows the Louisiana tradition of cooking. Especially delicious was the fish entree. It’s also remarkable that they generate a value priced wine list that is comprehensive and recognizable.

The valentines dinner was great. We had a great server named Jeremy. Every table was taken but Jeremy was always there at the right time when we needed anything, and he was great at having conversation. If you get the chance ask for him! We were only suppose to have the table for an hour and a half, but we ended up staying two hours without realizing it. Im surprised that happened on Valentine’s Day with how crowded it was, but I guarantee he had part to play in that. Thank you Jeremy!

Couldn’t say better things about our experience at the Palace Cafe. We enjoyed a spectacular Valentine’s Dinner here. We sat upstairs amidst a wonderful love-themed playlist. Many places were doing prefix menus which isn’t ideal for those with too many dietary restrictions and thankfully they were also extremely accommodating for all of their dishes so we could get exactly what we wanted. Ligelle (not sure if I spelled his name right) was a phenomenal server. An absolute class act with perfect suggestions and willingness to go the extra mile for us. We started by splitting the Beet and Marscarpone Salad - absolute incredible. My wife ordered Steak Frites (normally a lunch item, but they were willing to make it) and I ordered the Andouille Crusted Fish and both dishes were divine. We both ordered the Bananas Foster which Ligelle made right at our table and we were incredible impressed with its simple yet elegant flavor and presentation. Highly recommend the Palace Cafe!

An amazing experience from the moment we walked into the restaurant. We were met and greeted at the reservation desk by the manager Ian Turkmen, a led in a beautiful setting where Rickie (our waiter) guides us through a wonderful 3 course meal. There were 9 of us and you never know if all the entrees ill turn out right, they were perfect, and the baked Alaska at the end was to die for. Truly a great experience all around, also a great wine list!
