Founded in 1913, this family-run, Italian-Creole restaurant is located in uptown New Orleans. It is famous for creating barbecued shrimp.

This neighborhood restaurant is vintage New Orleans, from the service to the decor. The oyster bar is always manned by a friendly shucker. The oysters are fresh, salty, and delicious.

The old time oyster bar and cocktail bar offers raw oysters on the half shell and all types of cocktails. We offer fine seafood, Italian specialties, and delicious steaks.

In 2023, Dickie Brennan & Co. welcomed Pascal's Manale into their restaurant family.

    Classic NoLa joint, with lots of character. Famous for barbecue shrimp, the redfish is also excellent, and the oysters top notch.

    Lunch specials are excellent and reasonably priced. Waiter seemed to be overwhelmed at first but recovered nicely as the meal went on. Probably a new waiter.

    Greeted when we arrived by the receptionist. Dinner started great with nice cocktails and oysters. Service became on the struggle bus when it came to presenting food and cleaning up plates. They were leaving dirty plates and silver on the table. They should clear everything and start again. Bread was cold and dry. Why are you serving bread this way? You can do better. The entrees were very good. Food is old school.New Orleans dining. Food presentation does not look clean nor appetizing, but it tastes very great. Enjoyed experience just needs a.little work on the details from start to finish.

    We were so glad to see that the Brennan group purchase of Manales hasn't changed its character. It's such a charming, authentic New Orleans experience.

    Very good priced. If you’re a bourbon person very good selection. Lots of history, it was established in 1913 I could see the old mob eating in there from the old days!!! Will go back. Veal Parmigiana was very good!!!

    Service quite good- Donna is a pro and very attentive as was the rest of the staff. Food did not disappoint, very good. Alas, there were two huge tables with a party of Dads and daughters from ASH that made the room incredibly loud but couldn't be helped.
