    The shows were really fun. The corn crab curry bisque was excellent, the quiche was average. The novelty entertainment made it all worthwhile.

    This truly was a hidden gem: the site itself stands out from the surrounding area; the interior is spacious and refined; the menu selections were all sophisticated but reasonably priced; and the wine selection is well established and very reasonably priced. The food items we chose were all incredibly tasty.

    We met friends for a pre-MardiGras lunch. The ambience, food, service and overall vibe were spectacular! Thank you CountryClub for another memorable dining experience.

    Beautiful restaurant with lovely staff who take pride in this establishment. Went once for brunch and once for dinner. Both were good, but each person had something they didn’t quite like which I think is just a personal preference. We found the shrimp a little too oily but we will definitely go back to keep trying out their menu :)

    Service was amazing, but food was so, so. The beignets, redfish, mussels, and shrimp were ok, but just not very flavorful. Completely underwhelmed based on NOLA’s reputation for amazing, flavorful food. The crab bisque was a highlight. The imaginative cocktails were very good as well.

    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.
