    Everything about the jazz Sunday brunch was outstanding. All the food was excellent. The chocolate torte for dessert was to die for. And the jazz combo played for us at our table. Service was superb. I highly recommend Arnaud’s.

    The decor, service, and food were A+. Sadly, when we were first seated, the noise level in the restaurant was so high that we (party of 3) were forced to yell at the tops of our lungs to have conversations. Our reservation was for the Friday night before Mardi Gras Tuesday, so we didn't blame restaurant personnel. What nearly ruined our dinner experience was the lack of class displayed by the diners, who behaved like they were at a football game instead of a fine dining restaurant AND many men were dressed in golf shirts rather than in suits and ties. "Clueless" took on a whole new meaning for us!

    AMAZING dinner expereience. Like so many restaurants nowadays it was so loud I could barely hear anyone (and it gets worse as I get older) but the food and the service were both perfect. There were 4 of us celebrating a birthday and not one crumb of food was left on the table by the end of the night.
