    The Foundation Room kitchen is closed. I am surprised Open Table did not notify as we were looking forward to that particular type of dining experience. The House of Blues is a fun place. Interesting decor, good food and great service. I enjoyed the unique experience during a night on Bourbon Street. I ordered the bbq nachos which hit the spot before heading over to Bourbon Street.

    I made a reservation nearly a month in advance for a special occasion. I received an email the day before asking me to confirm that I would still be making my reservation. After spending a good amount of money on transportation and a hotel, I arrived to the restaurant and the worker at the front window informed me that the restaurant was closed. I’m very frustrated because of the wasted money I spent surrounding the dinner. The Foundation Room is our favorite restaurant in the city, so it was also quite the emotional letdown as well (to be looking forward to something for so long).

    Great food, service and vibes! We loved everything....very low key and great break from the craziness on Bourbon Street. We especially enjoyed sitting in the lounge after dinner listening to the live band. We will come here again next time we are in town!

    Great experience at Foundation Room. The music was a little loud to hear every one at our table but other than that, the food and service was excellent. Would recommend!

    Great live music and a really cool place. The service was fantastic. The charcuterie board was so-so and $25, so not good value. Excellent drinks. Will definitely return.

    The food is very good and the service was excellent. Notable items were the beef tartare and the mac & cheese. The pork chop was a bit dry, and there was not a lot of variety on the charcuterie appetizer. The crème brûlée was amazing. The ambience is probably the best part, given the musical musical environment.

    Such an amazing first dinner in Nola. The food and service was amazing. The ambiance made it feel so special, it was an elevated Blues room vibe and everyone was amazing. Alex at the front was an incredible first impression of the restaurant and Miss Rachel went above and beyond to ensure our experience was unforgettable. You have to try the table side smoked beef tartare. A must visit.
