What an incredible experience! Myself and my fiancée visited the night after I proposed to her that morning. We booked an experience and boy did we get one. Glasses of champagne to start to celebrate our engagement. The staff was so knowledgeable about every course and each wine selected to pair with it. Also very friendly and accommodating. I would highly recommend the chef’s tasting menu with the wine pairing!

Maypop is one of my favorite restaurants. I always suggest it as a unique dining experience for friends or strangers I meet that are visiting New Orleans. You cannot truly replicate it anywhere else. I was born and raised in New Orleans and have lived in Singapore, so the concept of blending SE Asian and Creole/Cajun/NO Italian cuisine makes a lot of sense when you have lived amongst both food cultures. Maypop blends elements of these surprisingly similar cuisines in a non-gimmicky way by creating a third cuisine that stands on its own, but could not exist without the influences of the others. I'll stop typing — just eat the current duck with blueberry hoisin and collard greens dish and that is all you will need to know.

Maypop is a neighborhood gem! It is located in the Warehouse District in New Orleans and lucky for us, is a half block from our door. The food, ambiance, service and cocktails were all spot on! We sat at the bar and thoroughly enjoyed the conversation and cocktails with our bartender and with Chef Michael. Every dish we had was perfect, but do not miss the pork belly, Chicharron and especially the Milk Tea Creme Brûlée. And Aunt Verna’s Manhattan was a perfect accompaniment! This restaurant is a MUST.
