Gluten free food was great! I have celiacs and had no reaction.

I am a celiac and visited this restaurant because of its variety of gluten free options. When we were seated I informed our waiter of my allergy and he told me to order meals with the small asterisk because they are gluten free. Let me start off by saying the selection is awesome and there are gluten free options in every category. I ordered the BBQ shrimp and asked the waiter to make sure the French bread is on the side. When the BBQ shrimp arrived the bowl was filled with tasty shrimp and FRENCH BREAD. I informed the waiter that they accidentally put bread in my shrimp and his response was "are you so allergic that you can't eat it?" I felt like I was being asked to take a light poisoning. I took the precaution of photographing my order prior to sending it back. Our main courses arrived a few minutes later and the waiter asked if I still wanted my BBQ shrimp. I said yes and they brought it right out. Trouble is they pulled the bread out and sent me the same shrimp. I told the waiter I didn't want it and explained that it was the same order and it would be poison for me. He then said they made it fresh for me and that it was a newly prepared order. I then showed him the photographs and he took it back. I then went to the bathroom and my waiter walked in. We both felt a little awkward due to the attempted poisoning. It really must have bothered my waiter because he used the urinal and walked straight out without washing his hands!!! Little did I know but gluten was the least of my worries as urine was also on the menu. My double cut pork chop was delicious and well prepared. The fish Amandine was also amazing and the wine was amazing. With some gluten sensitivity training and some basic hygiene training this place will be a TEN but until the staff has a sign reminding them to wash hands before returning to work we are all at risk.

This is by far my favorite place in NOLA. The Redfish was perfect and the shrimp and grits did not disappoint. They made a wonderful Bloody Maria and our server Carlo made the experience perfect. He was very knowledgeable about what meals they could modify to be gluten free and they had a gluten free menu. I can’t wait to go back!

Lovely atmosphere and multiple gf options- all of them delicious. I recommend talking to manager or bringing a GF dinning card as an extra level of protection. But over all the experience was beautiful

Let me start off by mentioning when my friends and I arrived to this restaurant, we immediately realized we were very under-dressed. We knew we were going to (what we thought) was a nice restaurant but didn’t immediately see anything about a dress code. The host greeted us and (while rather snooty but nice about it) offered to hold our reservation while we ran back to the hotel to change. So we hoofed it back to the hotel, changed, and returned a little flustered, winded, and very sweaty. I travelled with no jacket so I had to borrow one of theirs. I do realize it’s our fault for not checking the FAQ on the website to prepare, but we were not offered the option to dine in their more casual location, either, which would have been a nice option. After we got sat things really started to break down. Bread and drinks got delivered – my Rum and diet was much stronger than it should have been, my friends red wine came in a white wine glass, and no appetizer plates came with the bread. Our waiter had an okay attitude, but when it came to my friend requesting the correct wine glass and me needing another drink that wasn’t so strong, it was apparent how inconvenient the request was. Our orders got taken and while our salads came out mostly correct, one had the wrong dressing and our waiter, after my friend placed his order with him, made a comment of “That’s a lot of food”. He ordered two additional sides with his meal, one of which was tomatoes. It’s not like he was ordering ½ the menu. Not something polite to say to anyone, especially if they’re a little heavier. While we waited for dinner we made a few observations. All men were in suit jackets and ladies were wearing pretty much anything they wanted, including t-shirts. We saw a family walk out wearing Underarmour shirts and tennis shoes. We saw two of the waitstaff serving with their shirts untucked and another in crocks sandals. Some were in tuxedos, but it was frustrating seeing the inconsistencies since we made efforts to comply with their dress code. By the time our meals arrived, we all were pretty un-sold on this “historic” restaurant. The $50 Ribeye I ordered (asked for Medium but they cooked Well) arrived and it was underwhelming to say the least… just thrown on the plate. That was it – no garnish or presentation efforts made whatsoever, which is surprising for a place that is putting forward this “high-level dining” expectation. I had also asked our waiter if the potatoes I ordered had any gluten in it, to which he responded “No I don’t think so. It should be fine”. That didn’t give me much confidence, so I checked with the host who confirmed it has breadcrumbs. They do not claim any of their food is guaranteed gluten-free, which is fine, but the kitchen and wait staff should be trained to know what does and does not have common food allergens. Instead of sending my steak back, we all decided at that point to just finish our meals and go. There were a lot of rookie mistakes made in what we thought was a high-end dining establishment. After dinner I excused myself to go to the restroom. When walking back I observed our waiter slumped in a chair in the dining room thumbing through his phone while our table sat with empty drink glasses. That’s when I decided this was very much not a high-level dining experience and ripped off my suit jacket and flung it around the back of my chair. The host didn’t like that very much but I was done pretending that I was on some sort of incredible dining venture. The people working in this restaurant were not focused at all on creating any sense of service or fine-dining experience. If you want an impressive dining experience, this is NOT the place. There are much better restaurants who require a suit jacket and live up to the standard. Usually stuff like this I just chalk up to a bad experience and move on, but if you’re going to present me with a suit jacket requirement, the service and the entire experience should match that.
