Outstanding experience all around. Our server was friendly without being intrusive. The food was AMAZING (every bit worth the price). Our server went over and above for one of us in our party with a dairy allergy. The “Bananas Foster” show was a delight and informative. A wonderfully memorable time.

The food was amazing, well prepared. No steak knife necessary for the filet. The drinks were beyond great. The service was fantastic. The noise level was high. It was difficult to hear the server at times. We enjoyed ourselves regardless. If you’re looking for an intimate setting, try the French 75 bar which was intimate. The same great service and cocktails.

My husband and I come to Antoine’s every time we are in New Orleans (our top vacation getaway choice). We’ve done brunches and dinners and have never experienced an ounce of disappointment when dining here. Every meal has been superb! The staff is always phenomenal - they are always going above and beyond - and the atmosphere is so lovely. A must-go, for sure.
