New Orleans history and culture has always been and remains my culinary muse. When I first opened Emeril’s doors in 1990, we aimed to bring fresh preparations and infuse creativity into New Orleans culinary traditions and culture. We continue to challenge ourselves to bring our guests an exceptional experience, inspired by the various influences of New Orleans cuisine with a focus on innovation and refinement. The chef’s tasting is curated to be a journey building upon flavors and complexities of our ingredients infused with unique modernization. For New Orleanians and visitors alike we strive to create dishes, and environments that restore and transport people, leaving them happier than when they came to us. - Chef Emeril Lagasse

    The stars are a bit misleading due to a single incident. My server was great. The tasting menu was outstanding and we got the wine pairing. The first course was lobster in a kind of deconstructed bisque. The pairing was a sherry to go with the theme. Unfortunately, the wine had a bad bitter finish and was undrinkable. When I complained to the sommelier, he blew me off because I didn't understand it was a "dry" sherry. Nobody else paid any attention to my complaint despite just asking someone to taste it to confirm. I have traveled all over the world and an experienced wine drinker. I am especially fond of my ports and sherry. I would have further complained of my treatment and probably walked out but I was with two other couples and it was my treat so I couldn't leave them with a $1300+ check.

    The service we received was incredibly slow. The restaurant was not crowded at all and it still took a really long time to get drinks, food, etc.

    The food and service is amazing but the atmosphere was boring—Emerils use to be so fun and lively maybe we should have sat in the Salon. The dining area where you eat the set courses is great for a quiet romantic dinner not for a group of friends that want to be loud and have fun.

    Extremely good service with very good food. We ate at the salon side. Food was excellent, with small size portions that were excellently prepared. Additionally the bar had fantastic options available

    The restaurant is overall superb. The complete change to the menu is interesting. After regular visits over the past 25 years I miss prior options and the preparation/presentation of certain items. BUt, I’ll forever love the restaurant.

    Food, service and ambience live up to Emeril’s reputation. The prix fix menu makes enjoying the best dishes that complement each other so easy. For those with lighter appetites a three course option is available; and I highly recommend. The service is what you’d expect for a world class restaurant, with personable staff who attend to your every need with alacrity and class. The kitchen and food prep areas are open to the diners’ view, further adding to the allure of the whole experience. As with any restaurant of this caliber dress code is enforced and expect to pay a premium price for the experience. But it’s well worth it!

    We told them it was my girlfriends birthday when we made the reservation and again the day before. They completely forgot.
