    Where do I begin other than to say Wow! we had such an amazing experience. The food was outstanding. We tried all the different oysters. We had some soup we had some gumbo we had salad and best of all we had the baked Alaska. All were amazing! more than the food, I have to commend your server Chuck he was so amazing and made our experience extraordinary. He steered us in the right direction for food, while giving us a whole history lesson of Antoine’s from the beginning to the end of our meal with little snippets of history and he was probably one of the most charming waiters I have en counted in a very long time . He truly is an asset to your establishment❤️ There is a restaurant in Paris called La Tour D’Argent that I love that does the endearing post card with the number of the duck you ordered just like you do with the oysters! Love that, as well as the famous wine cellar! We so enjoyed the experience and cannot wait to come back on our next visit to NOLA!

    AMAZING experience! When we arrived our table wasn’t ready yet and the host gave us a mini private tour of the seance room and balcony. We got to see the ghost table (ask if someone alive is eating there tonight before you go take photos). When we were seated we had outstanding service and delicious food. The filet mignon and salmon were both perfectly cooked. I enjoyed the “honey child” cocktail which was the perfect level of sweet. We went for our anniversary and revived a complimentary crème brûlée topped with candles. I highly recommend the pumpkin crème brûlée if they still have it when you go!
