Came Friday night at 7, waited down stairs listening to music and having a few drinks for almost 2 hrs... And it was worth it!!! Escargot , mussels , veal park were all excellent ... Will be returning!
Lord help me Jesus. The absolute best lamb special I have EVER TASTED. Do NOT let your life go by without having it.
Tiny, romantic restaurant perched above a Frenchman St bar . Food is outstanding: you must order the crab and corn cannelloni and an entree with ocean sauce . Cash only
Chef gato nailed the rack of lamb ! Simply the best we have ever had... the rosemary/basil sauce was to die for!
Well worth the wait! Anything with crab was delicious - eggplant with crabmeat and capers , cannelloni with crabmeat and corn , fish with ocean sauce . One of the best meals in NOla!
Seafood & sauces in a dark and tiny dining room above a dive bar on Frenchmen. Doesn’t take reservations & is cash only . Service sometimes sucks. But this place is still awesome. [Eater 38 Member]
The Peppercorn + Rum sauce is fantastic. Get it on the Steak Manney, rare. Also, don't purchase any of the artwork as it mostly consists of Fleur De Lis' fighting alligators to jazz .
Adolfo's Drive Thru - Hurry up & wait, hurry up & order, hurry up & eat, hurry up & leave. That is their credo. Pushy, rude, brash waitstaff...No wonder it's 90% TOURISTS & 10% LOCALS.
The wait is usually longer than they suggest, but the food is so good it's worth the wait. Don't bother with an appetiser , you won't need it
Service was great, food is plentiful and delicious, and the atmosphere is perfect. The best meal I've ever had in an attic!
The ocean sauce is a must. Have a drink downstairs while you wait!
Veal Ocean with spaghetti or anything with their Ocean Sauce . Get the cannelloni filled with crabmeat and corn for an appetizer or the mussels .
Absolutely amazing!! Service is so bad you will almost leave, but the food is so good it is criminal. Put you name on the list and head down the street for some good music then prepare yourself..
Rack of lamb with rosemary mint sauce knocked my socks off
Get the pasta side over the salad ! You'll need it after that long wait for a table!
Two words - Ocean sauce
Tried the special, way more expensive than it sounded like it should be.
The spinach and cheese cannelloni is delicious much better than the crab and corn .
Really good. Show up early. House wine is cheaper than bottles.
Make a reservation-our wait w/o was 2 hrs. Lamb was great however pasta and fish dish way to spicy-good Italian food is not spicy
If there's a line , it's worth the wait. Eggplant & crabmeat for an appetizer !
AMAZING food and friendly staff . Best meal on Frenchman
I can't describe how good the food is, best food in the city . Veal was orgasmic
This place is kind of divey, but it was pretty good.
Crab And corn cannelloni absolutely ridiculously fantastic
Just get anything with the Ocean sauce
The absolute worst service I have ever had. The food was great though- but super rich. Share a meal and a app.
Best authentic northern Italian restuarant in NOLA.
The mussels are amazing!
Rack of lamb is put of this world
Best Creole sea food . Yummmmmmyyy.
This place sucks. They'll leave you on a waiting list, saying the wait is an hour, and 2 hours later tell you they won't seat you. The Manager acted like a rookie, and treated customers like crap.
Waited two hours after being told it would be a one hour wait. When we finally thought our reservation was ready, we were told the chef/owner no longer wanted to cook. Definitely heading elsewhere.
The chicken Vincent is the bomb!
Good service , but not very good Italian food .
Make sure to go here, but there will be a wait-
Save room for your entree and order a salad for your side instead of pasta .
Crab and corn canalloni !!! Amazing
Must get the ocean sauce !!! Eggplant parm is also delicious.
Over rated as hell. Bread was spicy and I had the shrimp Alfredo which I've had much better at many other places. Kind of a dirty spot as well .
Wow!! Worth the wait!
Agreed. Awesome food due to heavy butter. Service is subpar.
Worst service I've ever encountered. Waited two hours only to be turned away? Amateur move by an amateur owner - way to treat your clients. These guys are chumps.
Sauce so good Mary would have sex with it...
Tasteless lamb , and the canelloni that my partner got had so much black pepper that they tasted of nothing else. Rip-off, avoid.
Choose the pasta as your side - you won't be disappointed!
Veal with Ocean Sauce . Amazing.
Affordable dining
Cannolini !
Terrible. Stay away. Everything is smothered in "Ocean Sauce ." can't see why this place gets such favorable reviews.
Bloody Mary and screwdriver were strong! Good brunch deals. Muffuletta was great too! - Emily Dabeck
no reservations, and we got a table immediately. mostly locals (perhaps the time of the yr?). the food was fantastic: soft shell crab, meatballs, duck w raspberry confit, and the cheesecake, very good - Roberto
Staff is awesome and very attentive in a good way. Fills up fast get there early. Music was amazing. - Lea H
For a traveler, this was a hidden gem. Great live music goes down well with terrific craft beer. - Ryan Johnson
From N: cozy little spot with the cutest, simple meals upstairs. - cj fitzgerald
