Located in the Warehouse District in a historic building where Jefferson Davis was embalmed, Peche features a giant hearth/wood fire grill, a raw bar , and a perfected casual fine dining vibe.

Adrian Phillips

The service was beyond fantastic. Definitely get the shrimp & oysters from the raw bar . The ground shrimp pasta dish is a must try. The swordfish special nailed it on flavors.

Isle Dauphine oysters are probably the best I've ever tried. The tender texture and unique taste kept me coming back for more. Tuna special is fantastic, and so is everything else. Sit at oyster bar !

Christine Chao

We ordered what most people recommended, baked drum and shrimp noodles . Both are amazing, just great flavors. Key lime pie is also delicious, it’s better than the salted caramel cake in my opinion.

Dasha Kova

Order everything! I‘m in pain from eating so much delicious food but it was worth it. The whole grilled fish is a must! Seafood gumbo , oysters , side of fried potatoes ... dessert : salted caramel cake

Eliza Tarasila

The best seafood restaurant around! Definitely try their oysters and the ceviches . If you are from the west side, you will probably not like the oysters , but worth a try ;) cocktails were on-par!

Liz Tan

Sat at the bar , got great recommendations from the bartender : snapper , spicy ground shrimp w noodles , baked drum , and fried Brussels sprouts . Save room for the salted peanut pie .

Erik Michielsen

For drinks, the Morris Day (and the Thyme ) kills. The smoked drum and cauliflower salad was epic. Oysters top notch. Hush puppies and fish sticks unique and incredible. Seafood salad & gumbo...bravo.

Kika G

Try to maximize what you can taste from the menu because ALL of it is amazing. Pounded shrimp + noodles , crawfish bisque, and swordfish + farro w. peanut vinagarette, are keepers. Don't miss the pie !

Scy DV

Great vegetable side dishes- brussels, broccoli , carrots , potatoes - full fish is a must have, chicken , oysters (huge), and all desserts - key lime , sticky toffee pudding , and caramel cake

Susan Claxton

The fried bread is amaze. We had the tuna dip (really good), the shrimp noodles (great) and the redfish with salsa verde (awesome) with a side of Brussels and the pineapple rum cake . #yum

Ashley

Fried bread with smoked tuna dip (which oddly comes with saltines), shrimp croquettes , grilled whole redfish , best brussel sprouts and salted caramel (doberge?) cake ! Will go back just for the snacks

Boniface Law

All their starters are wonderful, the smoked tuna is the star! For 2 ppl, go family-style here, split 4-5 starter and share 1 entree.

Mitchell Edwards

Went here twice. Had the fried bread , fried Brussels sprouts , beets , smoked tuna dip , all the oysters , baked drum (twice), blackberry layer cake , and pineapple rum cake . Everything was perfect.

Marigny9

This Beard award-winner is one of the few places where you can sample local off-bottom oysters from the likes of Caminada & Champagne Bays . Their daily whole-fish platter never disappoints.

Ella Evans

One of the best restaurants in one of the best food cities in America! Get the fried bread and smoked tuna appetizers — both super unique and incredibly delicious.

Bokyung Park

First-class seafood . Oysters were fresh, and their whole fish pairs well with Sauvignon Blanc .

Nash Pleasant

Great selection seafood dishes with a modern, unique flair. Can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. Great selection of cocktails as well

Raquel GC

Honestly this whole meal was unbelievably good. Oysters , coconut and lime raw fish (similar to ceviche ), grilled tuna and baked drum - I dunno what was best! Listen to the waiters recommendations

Bianca Padilla

Top picks: drum for entree and sea salt caramel layer cake for dessert ! Will not regret. The fish is so soft and flavorful it's unbelievable!

Carolina

The best dinner I've had in New Orleans.Service was amazing all the time.We ordered many plates and all of them were incredibly tasty, especially the seafood salad ! I would definitely recommend Pêche!

Kristy Baird

Shrimp and noodles was delicious. The bisque was great but, be prepared for some spice. And to finish I tried the chocolate pudding - decadent. Definitely get the Four Roses bourbon pairing.

Eric

Incredible. The fried bread , grilled royal red shrimp , brussels sprouts with chili vinegar: all were simply stunning. Best restaurant we visited in our week in New Orleans.

Andre Ribeiro

Baked drum with mushroom broth was just amazing - really unique dish. Next time I am for sure trying the whole fish .

Owned by famed NOLA chef Donald Link, Pesce's serving up some of the most delicious and creative seafood in a city long known for having access to some of the freshest in the country . Read more

Jimmy Mouton

Everything is really tasty, but you'll be missing out if you don't get whatever fish is fresh caught. They'll bake it and bring it out whole and you'll eat it and you'll love it.

Nicole Cheramie

James Beard award winner, Peche is on the rise with crowds every night. The whole grilled redfish is superb, and local, line-caught seafood their specialty. Save room for the key lime pie , its divine.

Robyn Flanery

Amazing whole grilled fish . The Brussels sprouts are the best I have ever had. This place is really good.

Pippa Strong

Absolutely delicious!!! Try the shrimp and bacon - to die for! Make sure you book as it's super popular and there isn't even standing room at the bar .

Cuneyt Uysal

The crab claws were worth the wait. However the seafood platter is meager at best by most standards. A handful of oysters and shrimp with dip , a $45 platter does not make. Seasoning was uniform across

Gizem Ünlü Erdil

The best ever!!! Pêche deserves every good comment,highly recommended!❤️ Try, smoked drum, hush puppies , steak tartare !!

Zane Shannon

Have a seat at the raw bar across from Sam the Oyster Man. Talk to him when he talks to you. He's a true gentleman. (You're going to want to tip him--leave it on the bar , the servers don't share!)

Connie M

Gumbo was delish! Seafood was so tender it melted in your mouth. Red shrimp were good but couldn't bring myself to eat the heads. Waiting for dessert , a chocolate cherry flour less cake .

Dianna Duffy

Absolutely wonderful. Service was fantastic; quick, but not on top of you all night. We had raw oysters , capellini with crab , grilled tuna , and two sides: stewed okra and smashed potatoes .

Adam Sigel

The sweet potatoes that come with the chicken diablo are incredible. Oysters , hush puppies , brussel sprouts , and ribeye for the table also very good.

Elias Biz

Jumbo shrimp were not that jumbo (but very tasty). The grilled Cobia with the rice pilaf and eggplant was so delicious I had to write all the ingredients for this review.

Seriously some of the best food I've ever had in my life. Get the fish sticks. Get the LA Shrimp Roll . And the Brussels sprouts . Oh... And the PB PIE .

Ed Meckes

The catfish was great. They were overbooked and understaffed: only got one drink, chaotic atmosphere, very tight seating. Wasn’t feeling the vibe.

“The seafood-heavy menu highlights New Orleans’ signature Bayou ‘kick.’ For effortless synergy, pick ethereal Champagnes and whites from Austria and Germany.” - Laura Williamson, Wine Expert Read more

Guillermo Mendoza

Best fresh oysters I have had and tonights special appetaizer raw fish tuna with corn & lime excellent. Them the mussels with fennel and the grilled tuna spectacular!

Tuğba Altan

Peche is a beatufil place to have a dinner or just have nice drink! I like the place however the fish may be cooked a bit more.

Kate Ciurej

Love the crab claws , oysters , and Parish IPA . Lots of beers (bottles, cans, taps) to choose from.

Marigny9

Sister to Cochon & Herbsaint, this James Beard Award winner doesn't disappoint with dishes like crab + jalapeño capellini & smoked tuna dip . Specials change daily.

Chris R

Shrimp from the raw bar , seafood salad , Brussels sprouts . It's all excellent!

Shawn Calhoun

A must dine in NoLa. Staff is awesome and will get you what you need — just ask!

Linda Dunlap

Note to self...ordered oysters (area 3), fried bread , fish sticks, brussel sprouts , beet salad ...and the Peche 75. 1st stop of 3 at our Donald Link restaurants .

Joanne Wright

Two course meal for two people with a wine , beer and two coffees ... $120. But absolutely delicious. A place for a treat or special occasion .

Farhat Sikder

Loved!!! High recommend! The Shimp toast and smoked tuna dip was amazing!

Franek Biernat

Alabama oysters , tuna steak and good ambiance, all worth the not so cheap price
