Don’t go here. We were the only cars in the parking lot, and we almost left. I wish we had. We walked in, and the server waived at us to sit at any table. But when she got off the phone, she told us we weren’t allowed to sit at the table we chose. We moved, and then we asked what came with the Kababs. Nothing. Everything sold separately with expensive prices that were handwritten on the menu - a big jump from the old prices. If you are going to increase prices, then get new menus. The server started out by telling us everything on the menu that they didn’t have. I asked about the tiki, and she said that would take 45 minutes! Also, they charge for water - WHO DOES THAT??? Rice and bread also cost extra. My simple meal with water only and rice and 1 piece of bread was $27! They also include gratuity for everyone, even though the service is terrible. Also, my butter chicken came with a huge blob of gross butter. I know it’s called butter chicken for a reason, but EWE.

Make sure to do the 5 course prix fix menu where the chef chooses your meal. We truly enjoyed trying items we would have never chosen off the menu. Don’t shy away from sitting at the bar if you make a last minute reservation. Ty conjures up his own amazing and complicated and delicious cocktails. Plus, they have an awesome selection of liquors. Each course was better than the last. Dessert was the best. The flavors were layers and artfully displayed. Well done.

The service was the best we’ve had in NOLA. I’d come back here in a heartbeat. Happy hour is amazing and cheap. All food made from scratch in house. The Caesar salad had botanist gin dressing - fantastic. Fun British atmosphere. Loved it.
Come here for great coffee in New Orleans. We came back multiple days. The New Orleans cold brew comes with just a little milk and sugar and it is {chef’s kiss} perfect. Small shop with some tables and open at convenient times. Near the convention center if you need a real pick me up instead of weak convention coffee.
This museum was a delightful surprise. The architecture was inspiring, and the mixture of portraits and other American paintings was tastefully done. There were portraits of every president. I loved the giant portrait of the Queen of Hawai’i and the landscape of Yosemite.
