Good service. Clean food. Our server, Ms Caroline was really really nice and friendly. Thanks!
Fantastic Italian meets Creole restaurant. The prices for entrees range from $18 to $35. The food itself is outstanding, and well-presented. Service was outstanding. The waiters were friendly, constantly refilling our glasses without being asked, and checking up on us to see if we needed anything. There was a live piano and three opera singers the whole night. The restaurant was cozy, yet could seem a little loud at times.
At first I was kind of iffy on this place because I had not heard of it but by the end of the meal I was on the CG bandwagon. Loved the food. Every appetizer we tried was amazing and all of the entrees were fantastic. Loved the crispy duck entree and the veal was delicious. Would absolutely go back.
The food was delicious and the entertainment was fabulous! Top quality live music with high class musicians. I had a seafood salad with avocado over mixed greens. It was great! Highly recommend the Creme Brule!
We arrived with reservations at 7 pm on a Tuesday to a restaurant with only two other tables. We waited until 715pm to be greeted; we decided to step outside and grab a smoke. After going back in, we overheard the manager and our intended sever discussing our table..."table 19 smells like money". After the discussion, the manager visited our table and apologized for the now almost 30 minute duration to even greet us. It was appauling. As the wife and I left, I let the manager know we were leaving and would not be spending our money here. His response was, "I don't blame you." We ultimately ended up at "Bourbon House". Excellent service and food. Shame on you Cafe Giovanni.
Fantastic experience from the moment I walked in the door. The greeter was welcoming, the server was great to talk with and I was treated very well. Not to mention the food was fantastic. I also got to meet the chef. He was both pleasant to me and I appreciate how well he interacted with the staff and appreciated both them and the customers satisfaction. I will go back.
I have had several nice meals in New Orleans, Bourbon House, Antoine's, Rib Room, to name a few and this has been by far the best experience. The atmosphere is amazing and our sever, Matthew, was hands down one of the best I've ever had. Well versed in every menu item and on top of all his tables
I had high expectations for this place but the taster was a let down; even returned one plate. While voluminous the quality was lacking. Our server was pretty slow and under-informed on the menu as well. There's lots of good food in NOLA, don't waste your time here.
I was quite disappointed in the experience. My girlfriend made reservations 2 weeks in advance and we arrived 10 minutes early. The restaurant was half full, at best, and the maitre d had us wait well after our reservation. The bartender was quite kind and was apologetic. Once we were shown to our table we had to wait a good 10 - 15 minutes till our waiter showed up, but there was no gretting, no welcome, it felt like he was not going to say a word unless you spoke to him. Quite awkward. I got a tea, which was awful, and a coke, with no refills. My girlfriend and I made our order at an Italian restaurant of a single meatball for an appetizer, italian salad, and entree. The meatball was mediocre, at best. It was luke warm. Our entree arrived about 25 - 40 minutes later with our bread, which was 2 small cresson rolls, and no salad. We brought it up to the waiter, he apologized and said the kitchen was slammed I counted 12 tables and offered us free desert which was good. The given reason for 2 stars instead of one. Overall, the restaurant severely lacks a friendly staff. The mediocre food is overpriced, in my opinion. The veal was hallow which led me to believe it was mircowaved. The comped desert, my girlfriend said, was delicious. Sadly, I will not return.
Italian food, as close to Rome as you can get in New Orleans. Try the oysters, a delicious and unique presentation. The bruscetta is another must. Friendly staff and great service. Amply stocked bar. Prices average. Chef Duke frequently comes around to talk. Opera singers Wednesday-Friday add to the experience.
