Restaurants near Lions Park

Ashley was an excellent server who made our Thanksgiving dinner very special. She was timely and very attentive. All of the staff were friendly and courteous. The ambiance was great as usual, and seeing an alligator and all the wildlife was wonderful. We chose Restaurant des Familles because it is one of our favorite restaurants in the area and they did not disappoint in making our Thanksgiving meal memorable. We will be back soon as we have guests coming in from Michigan for New Year’s. We know they will love the atmosphere and the food that only Restaurant des Familles can provide!!!

When booking with OpenTable, we weren't able to get a reservation until 815. We are from Eastern standard time so we're quite hungry. We stopped in at 5:30 to see if we could change our reservation and they were able to change it to 630. So polite and accommodating from the first moment. The service was exquisite, so friendly and happy. I wish I had gotten the waitress's name. And everyone was happily accommodating when my daughter wanted her steak cooked a little bit more. My lobster was fantastic. Perfectly cooked. Just wish it had been bigger. Overall worthy expense and fun to go to old historic restaurant. 

We love this place. Every time we come to NOLA this is one of our must dine place. Dennis was our server and he made us feel like VIPs. The food is alway amazing so you can’t go wrong with anything they have on the menu. The lobster dumplings are a must experience. The biscuits are alway delectable. I encourage if you are in NOLA add this to your itinerary.

Lovely & tasty, as always. We had a super helpful young lady waiter. She was delightful. Food is always excellent. We went on the early side — 11:30 — so at first it was wonderfully quiet and even as things picked up & families came in with children, it was not too loud ever, just festive.

Darla and Daniel were incredible waiters. Knowledgeable, great interaction. Food was perfect! Fried oysters with tasso gravy reduction was bomb. For those who don't know, tasso is Cajun smoked pork legs with extremely deep smoke. Then duck confit, thigh and drumb. Finished with peppermint ice cream and glacee drizzled with chocolate.
