   The food nor service lived up to the hype. It is obvious that it is a beloved institution, just wish the food was up to New Orleans standards. It wasn't terrible just forgettable. The wine selection was very nice.

   We really enjoyed the hospitality and wonderful service. The food was excellent from the antipasti to the desert.  The dining experience made our evening very special. Will definitely be coming back on our next visit to New Orleans.

   The whole experience was awful. Appetisers came before we had a drink. The wine was 86 and when I turned to order another bottle the server had gone not returning until I called the manager over 10 mins later and then explaining I am busy I have two other tables! Really! Then she made a rude comment when I ordered the wine saying let me make sure we're have it so they're it's not another fiasco. Basically rude service with a bad attitude. Then the food, one of our party had to have his pasta remade twice. First of was so salty it was inedible then it was so undercooked it was inedible again. When she brought the third pasta she said the chef was scared. Why. Just check your food before sending it out. The Lamb was over cooked and the shell fish in my Cioppino were so fishy I left the whole thing. She didn't even ask why I didn't eat the meal. The affogato was a tiny piece of ice cream with drip coffee. I asked for an Italian dessert wine and was told they did to have any. I went to the bar myself and the BT said of course we do, so I had one. By now we just wanted to leave. They didn't even comp the pasta. DO NOT waste your time or money here. It couldn't have been worse if they tried. FYI I am a restaurant owner and have never left a review like this but this place was terrible. I think because they are near Bourbon Street they just don't care as people come in anyway. Worst service and food I have ever had.

    The food and the service was spectacular. The temperature in the restaurant was humid and warm. When the tile floors sweat you know that it is bad. I will return for another great food experience on cooler dates.
