Galliano Restaurant

We were only a short walk from our hotel but the choice to eat here was an epic one...claire was fabulous and steered us to a truly great evening. We had oysters gumbo and jambalaya for appetizers and gulf fish and one of the best filets ever...I asked her to serve it bleeding...but there are many interpretations of rate...this was charred perfectly and so soft...truffle butter was a great addition to both the filet and the chrocettes. Side were fab...red beans great.. we loved everything but then had the bananas foster bread pudding...when I regain consciousness I'll recheck this review....honestly can't go wrong...🙂

The beet salad and fried green tomato appetizers were excellent. If you like seafood gumbo, those in our group that had it enjoyed it. The pork chop was delicious, but the fresh gulf fish was not fresh and had a very strong flavor. The service at the beginning was great. Once the restaurant got busier, the wait staff had difficulty keeping up. We waited 35 minutes for our dessert. Some hits and some misses tonight! Hopefully, this was just a one off.

Absolutely amazing meal, start to finish. Claire took excellent care of us, and was a hoot and a half!
Manny has knocked it out of the park with this place, really. His vision of a brownie cup with pecan pie inside made us almost die from happiness.

This is a seafood restaurant and a bar located in the downtown New Orleans. Very different and interesting interior and ambience. It served Alligator Bites, Seafood Gumbo, oysters, scallops, Fried Tomato Salad as starters. Then it served past, pudding. Very convenient location. Price is high as it serves different cuisine.

Wasn't too busy at the time we went, although reservations are available if needed. Server was informative and friendly. Alligator was good, not chewy or fishy. Ceasar salad was large and romaine was beautifully fresh. Shrimp cocktail was ok, a bit sweet for my taste but liked that it did not have raw chunky tomatoes. Rougareaux drink was good but very sweet, about halfway through I needed to water it down a bit. Great place within walking distance to the hotel we were in, and the walk felt pretty safe.

This is weird, but the cornbread served prior to the meal was AMAZING, had a sweet crunchy top to die for.
The restaurant is nice, small and cozy, great ambiance, Id call it "upscale casual" we went during Mardi Gras so there were many people dressed to the nines for the Endymion Ball happening later, but all other tables people were dressed fairly casual and with carnival season festive attire.

Just amazing. The best meal we had in the whole New Orleans - and overall tbh.
Debbie is the best! She made amazing recommendations and we were just smiling after each meal that arrived.
Place is really cute. Service superb.
Highly recommended.
