    The house is gorgeous. The handpainted wall murals are spectacular. Service was excellent. Delicious Bloody Mary. Food was very tasty. And the Ladies were fantabulous! So glad we included it for our NOLA visit. Highly recommend.

    We were a party of 8 that ordered pretty much all the small plates and passed them around the table. It was the perfect amount of food and all the dishes were delicious. Thank you, Michael, for being so accommodating and giving us great, friendly service.

    Have been to The Country Club before for lunch and thoroughly enjoyed it so returned this time for the Drag Brunch. Service was friendly and professional, food beautifully presented and delicious, and performances were great. Was an enjoyable and memorable experience all around.

    We had a fabulous dinner in this beautiful yet casual restaurant. The service was great and the cocktails were on point. We enjoyed the redfish , truffle Mac n cheese, and beet and apple kale salad. It’s tucked away in the cute by water neighborhood away from the craziness. I would highly recommend.

    First time eating at the country club and it was amazing. The vibrant drag show was in full effect as we dranked and ate our meal. The food was good, I had the beet & apple salad (delicious), the salmon dish (I hated the green sauce in it) and my husband had the rib (VERY FATTY). Over all a good experience.
