Best Live Music Restaurants in Lower Garden District

Great steak and fish. Filet perfectly done. Redfish very nice. Fried oyster app is very popular for a reason. King cake dessert insanely sweet and served with vanilla ice cream. Tables are physically small and hard to fit four plus plates and glasses. Another of the Brennan restaurants so you know it’s deliberate. Lots of traffic on a Sunday night but it’s the FQ. It’s on our rotation - very reliable.

The shrimp Arnaud was underwhelming. It tasted like tuna fish with dijon mustard. Not entirely sure why it’s a signature dish? The veal and souffle potatoes were amazing, but oversalted. The veal was cooked to perfection and tasted like a salisbury steak. The jazz band came by our table once the entire evening. The wait staff was very attentive but I did feel rushed throughout my dining experience. Not sure if I would return for a second time.

The food at M Bistro was all exceptionally delicious. The service was superb, and the ambiance is fantastic- a truly beautiful venue, as is the entire Ritz Carlton. Our only 2 minor complaints are that the restaurant is difficult to find in the hotel. It's on the third floor behind the bar. We wandered around a while trying to figure out where it is, as directions are not displayed anywhere. The second is the coffee is similar to New York coffee- more watery than we're used to in New Orleans. But all in all, I heartily recommend M Bistro, and we'll be happy to return. As for the food, I had the redfish, which was really outstanding. The oysters Rockefeller were a unique recipe, but excellent.

Fantastic! Great food, good portions, atmosphere is great! Share the dessert though… they are huge! We will be back soon!

We came for Valentine’s Day and had a lovely time, as usual. We did not order the prix fixe dinner but instead ordered off the regular menu. My husband had gumbo, and the red fish, and a side of fried Brussels sprouts. I had the starter raviolo as my main with a side of charred green beans. Delicious! Thank you, Atchafalaya, for another wonderful evening.
