Restaurants near Mahalia Jackson Theater for the Performing Arts

Food was wonderful. Service was excellent most of the night until dessert when it seemed our server forgot about us for about 30 minutes. The setting is beautiful as well.

Food was excellent, ambiance was romantic and beautifully decorated for Christmas, service was very attentive but a little “jerky” or uncoordinated with a 2 man team serving. I ate here 29 years ago for the second time, and 70 years ago for the 1st time. Get to know a certain waiter and ask for him each time if you are a local. That way you will get special treats!

This is perhaps the best restaurant I have ever eaten at. It is a high end place but the value for the quality is excellent. The food was outstanding from the warm biscuits to the fabulous lobster dumplings to the Pompano fish to the bread pudding dessert. All four of us raved about our meals. The servers were wonderful. The noise level was pretty high. One server did put the entre and the dessert in front if the wrong person but that's the only possible criticism I can offer. This was an amazing dining experience.

Outstanding food and service. Terrance, our waiter was very attentive and made excellent meal recommendations! We loved our cocktails (Old Fashioned), appetizers (Oysters), entrees (fish and pork chop) and dessert (bread pudding). Great ambulance with a lively and at times noisy atmosphere!

Great food, great drinks! definitely will be back to try more of the menu! Carbonara certainly can be hit or miss on authenticity, but this carbonara was perfectly saucy, made with real guanciale, authentic and delicious!
