Best Casual Restaurants in Uptown

The service and food was outstanding. I traveled with my daughter for my “traveling into 50” goal. This was my splurge meal in New Orleans and I was not disappointed! We both had the ribeye and then split the fries (plenty of food). Drinks were delicious and the dessert was out of this world. I decided to eat as many bread puddings as I could this trip and this was by far my favorite!

Great casual spot for burgers and appetizers. Attentive service and able to accommodate members of our group who were celiac. Patio looked lovely for warmer weather. Definitely recommend.

I celebrated my birthday here and it was a 10/10! From the host to the server it was a great experience. The ambiance is beautiful and intimate and the servers are efficient and attentive. The Free Form Blue Crab Raviolo is a must try!

We had such a wonderful experience there! Of course, the food was incredible. You don't need me to tell you that. The cuisine has been written about pretty much everywhere. What you may not know is how well the staff take care of you from start to finish. We were greeted, and waited by a genuinely kind, joyful and learned staff. They made us feel at home to the extent that we had to drag ourselves away at the end of our meal.

The moment you step into this culinary gem, you're transported to the vibrant crossroads of Israeli and Mediterranean cuisine in the heart of New Orleans. The combination of hummus and fried chicken here is nothing short of exceptional – silky smooth with a perfect balance of tahini and lemon, creating a velvety canvas for the other dishes then chicken is added expertly seasoned with aromatic Middle Eastern spices, remains remarkably tender and juicy, paying homage to time-honored cooking traditions. In a city renowned for its culinary diversity, this establishment stands out as an authentic beacon of Israeli-Mediterranean excellence, offering a dining experience that feels both sophisticated and warmly familiar.
