Had amazing service and delicious food for Sunday brunch . Wear a collared shirt , try a French 75, and take a tour of the museum upstairs. Cannot go wrong with any of the food.

The Sunday brunch jazz trio makes the experience! Servers were all business, not personal...and will tell you the best appetizer is the fruit and you will have food envy of your friends better choices

Greg Barber

Can't go wrong with the food ... Had seafood gumbo , Filet Mignon with a white mushroom sauce along with a side of mushrooms ... Bananas Foster at the table and the jazz trio played just for us.

The good: Toasty and delicious table bread . Service impeccable. Filet mignon = meat butter heaven. The bad: Gumbo was like, canned soup and reconstituted chicken bad.

Gabriel Hayes

The Strawberries Arnaud is a great dessert . Flambeed at your table. Made with fresh strawberries marinaded in Port Wine Sauce . Served over Brocato's French vanilla ice cream .

Jeff Petriello

The Cafè Brunot is as yummy for the eyes as it is for the tummy. A great finish if you like after dinner drinks.

Fourth-generation 1918 haute Creole restaurant . One of the largest in the country seating 1,100 guests, via 17 opulent dining rooms. Certainly a touristy restaurant but a beloved classic. Expensive

Susannah Clemons Bicknell

Great service! Tried all of their Oysters and they were great. The crab cakes were tasty, and everyone got dessert-Bananas Foster, made table side, it was delicious. A little overrated though& pricey !

Jazz Brunch was amazing from start to finish. The food, the service, the band our party loved second of it.

Men's Health Mag

You’re walking into history when you walk in here. Restaurant opened in 1918—it’s been through it all. Drink of choice? The French 75, their signature cocktail . Heck, have a few. It’s Nawlins.

The Filet Mignon Au Poivre was great.A seared pepper-studded center-cut filet with classic French Brandy Cream Sauce

Mixologist Chris Hannah is a genius. Order the Bywater, or tell him the characteristics you like in a drink and let him put something unexpected together for you. You won't be disappointed.

ATL_Hunter

The alligator sausage is amazing. Seafood gumbo was perfection.

Rebecca Chapa

Don't miss a trip to the Germaine Wells museum after you have a delicious cocktail made by Chris Hannah at the French 75 bar

Brad Graham

Dark wood, low little tables and a head bartender who takes the bar 's namesake drink and turns it into a love potion.

Ron Ringuette

Great service only matched by the incredible food. Glad we didn't miss it.

Sick of ordering your usual margarita ? Try Chris Hannah's Paloma tequila highball with house-made grapefruit syrup for an alternative tequila treat.

Mark Crabtree

James is the the BEST MAITRE d in New Orleans and Arnaud's is the place to enjoy a cigar !

Brandon Helmes

Buy a bottle of their sauce and take it home, you'll be glad you did!

Philipp Kaethe

Tell chris to make you a gin-based drink, not too sweet, stiff and coconut . You'll be in heaven soon.

Josh Tabin

The Turtle Soup was excellent but the service is what makes this place a French Quarter original. Also recommend the filet...superb.

Aloysius McMurphy

There are two old, famous Creole restaurants whose names begin with 'A' in the Quarter. This is the good one.

Gabriel Hayes

Best place for fancy cocktails in the French Quarter.
