    Came here for a Birthday dinner. We were a party 8. The place is decorated like you are in New Orleans. They have 2 floors. The staff was attentive. The food and drinks are really good here. We really enjoyed the oysters. The food didn't take long to come out. We ended up ordering them twice. The steak frites was good. The brussel sprouts were delicious. The etoufee was tasty. I would come here for a date night or just for drinks. We enjoyed our dinner and didn't feel rushed.

    This restaurant offers New Orleans vibes in Tribeca. I stopped by for a quick bite at the bar during happy hour. I ordered the chicken burger and fries and asked for the chicken to be grilled instead of the fried and my server obliged. I also ordered the gumbo with dirty rice. The gumbo was heavier on the tomato sauce than I like, with a reddish color instead of the darker hue I'm used to from dining in New Orleans. It came with a generous portion of dirty rice. Overall, the food was decent and the restaurant did not skimp on the portions. The service was efficient yet impersonal. I sat on the first floor, but there's also a balcony level that offers a great view of the restaurant. The bar sits in the center of the main level with some flat-screen TVs hung up around the perimeter, making it a good location to watch a game.

    Great brunch! Food- food was good portion sizes, super flavorful, presented well, and so tasty. Drink- nice variety of cocktails. We got bottomless mimosas. Space- makes you feel like you're in NOLA. Flowers, colorful, open, nice decor. Service- they were severely understaffed but our server was friendly and attentive. We could just see him running around servicing waaay too many tables. Music- the band was so much fun. Talented, personable, and the perfect amount of entertainment and background music. Really created a fun atmosphere.

    Crab Dip

    This was a nice date night restaurant. The jambalaya was bomb.com 5/5as per my date. The crab dip was also delicious. Only thing I wish is that the brunch ends at 4pm and I wish it would've ended earlier to take advantage of their dinner menu on a Sunday. Service was a little bit slow as there wasn't enough waiters

    XO Noodles
    Anna K.

    Had high expectations for this place but honestly the food was very med. The pretzel for the crab dip was stale. The coconut monkey bread lacked flavor. Probably the only redeeming food item was the XO noodles.

    I had a wonderful lunch at 1803 where everything I ordered tasted very good. The Cup Signature Gumbo was amazing and the absolute best part of the whole meal was definitely the flavorful jambalaya rice inside it. I also really enjoyed the Cajun Fried Chicken Sandwich, which was cooked perfectly. It was an excellent meal from start to finish. The bar has a lively and tropical atmosphere.

    Great Creole restaurant with an awesome vibe! Came here on a weeknight. I made sure to make reservations ahead of time, since the restaurant tends to be busy. The place was crowded, but we got a table on the second floor right away. For appetizers, we ordered the Honey Chili Brussels Sprouts and the Cajun Shrimp Skewers. Both were delicious with a ton of flavor. 5/5 for appetizers. For my entree, I had the Cornmeal-crusted Black Sea Bass. It was also really good. The fish was seared perfectly, the vegetables and lemon butter sauce combined with it perfectly. 4.5/5 for entree. For dessert, we shared the Hummingbird cake. I enjoyed the cake filling, which was coffee flavor, more than the rest of the cake. 4/5 for dessert. I think next time I might order the Beignets or Bread Pudding. The atmosphere gets a 5/5 for me. And the service was very good. I think this is a great restaurant to experience the New Orleans vibe without leaving NYC.

    1803 Cheeseburger

    Stopped in for a late night dinner at 1803 and was pretty hairy with my experience. As someone who didn't eat seafood, I was a little more limited than my friends. But that's on new, it's NOLA inspired, so you're going to have plenty of seafood options. The burger I had was pretty good, we were happy with the service, and the restaurant itself was very cool looking. I'm rarely in the area, but if I was again, I'd be happy to try some more of their food.

    Cajun Hot Corn
    Antonella N.

    Amazing place for hanging out and eating good! To start off we ordered the Cajun Hot Corn and it came with some of the best chips we've ever had (amazingly seasoned)!! My husband ordered the shrimp po-boy sandwich and I ordered the dirty dirty duck bowl. Both were great both were delicious. I don't typically like going to NYC restaurants twice since there's so many to try from but we'd definitely come back here again! Qualify service and cute postcard on your way out.

    Crawfish Cake Benedict
    Jacky C.

    Another one of those spots I've had bookmarked for a while and needed an excuse to be in the area to be able to go out of my way to try them out. That excuse was finding a new primary doctor and was in the area. So here we are. Someone told me that this was the best creole restaurant in NYC and I have to say they might be onto something. I came in for brunch alone, so I was able to get seated by the bar. Otherwise it sounds like you really need a reservation to be able to get a table. I can only imagine how busy they get for dinner. They had a jazz band playing on the mezzanine level, so you really feel like you're in NOLA. I started off with a cup of their Signature Gumbo ($13), which was a great way to start my meal and a way to warm up from the cold winter. This consisted of oysters, crab, shrimp, andouille sausage, tomato with cajun rice on the side. For entree, I ordered the Crawfish Cake Benedict ($24), which tasted amazing. Unlike your typical Eggs Benedict, which is on an English muffin, sub that muffin out with a crawfish patty and yeah...I'm not eating regular eggs benedict again. This comes with a side salad and home fries. And yes, I was very full and satisfied afterwards. Definitely am coming back again to try out other food items and their dinner menu.

    Beignets
    Gynelle M.

    The vibe of 1803, at night, was amazing. Great spot to hang late night with a friend or two. Great service, and an all-around good time. As for the food, I have to give it just an okay. We weren't impressed. The food was ultra salty, the salad was mediocre, the jambalaya was average, and the beignets were fairly subpar. It wasn't a great food night for us, but the drinks, vibe, ambiance, and service were amazing. That said, not sure how I'd rate this spot. I wish Yelp had an "I'll let you know the next time I return" button. I wanted to LOVE this place, but I don't want to shoot it down because our food could've been a very off night. You know how sometimes it's a fluke? That's how I somewhat feel. I'll rate it a 3.5 because I want it to be a 5. We'll reconvene when I return for my second review. I need another opportunity to assess. Meanwhile, gone fries and drinks! That's all I can vouch for right now. Happy 2026!

    This is a 4.5 star review I've now been to 1803 twice: once for a work happy hour and once for a friend happy hour. I genuinely can't believe I didn't know this place was so close to my office. It's so funky and classy. The bar is beautiful and there's a good amount of space, with two floors. For happy hour, which goes until 7pm, I've had a number of spritzes and white wines. Both were good and were ($10-12). I also had a slider, which I really liked. It was nice and juicy/flavorful, although a bit undercooked. I also had some vegetarian nachos which were really good with beans and peppers and cheese etc. These were both around $12 each as happy hour items. Staff is always super nice!

    Cajun Baby Back Ribs and Mac & Cheese and Honey Chili Brussels Sprouts
    Dane B.

    Came for brunch on a rainy Saturday. Loved the decor, there was a live band doing covers of top hits, the staff was very friendly and accommodating. We both got a full rack of ribs, Mac and cheese, and brussels sprouts to share. The ribs were so tender. We also partook in the bottomless margs. Very strong!

I remember liking their drinks, but I never stopped back in, as I don't go out to drink too often. More recently, I was here a few months ago with a large group for their Sunday Roast. The staff were friendly and gave us good service, even though the place was crowded, and there was some loud but pleasant live music playing in the background. Of course, a bunch of us got cocktails. I went with their signature Irish Coffee, as I thought the Alexander one, based on a Brandy Alexander, would be a little bit too sweet. Said drink was $17 and had Teeling Small Batch Irish whiskey, Andytown coffee, Demerara, freshly whipped cream, and nutmeg. As can be seen in the hundreds, or rather thousands, of other reviews, their Irish coffee is excellent. It's not too sweet or too bitter, with enough whiskey for just a tiny kick of alcohol, along with a hit of spice. Another person loved the $20 Frozen version with the same whiskey, along with Mr. Black coffee liqueur, cold brew coffee, cane sugar, and cream, and I believe someone else got the fancier Alexander version for $21. Outside of their coffees, there was a mix of other cocktails, including the Doctor's Orders for $21, with Wild Turkey 101 bourbon, Laird's apple brandy, cinnamon, allspice, grapefruit, and lime. I remember trying it as I gave the other person a sip of my drink and enjoying it. The majority of us went with the same $44 Sunday Roast as our main dish. This consisted of a roasted sirloin of beef, bread stuffing, roast potatoes, cauliflower cheese gratin, roasted vegetables, Yorkshire pudding, beef gravy, and horseradish cream. The beef was cooked to my requested temperature, and only a small portion of fat wasn't rendered down properly. However, this wasn't the case for others, with one person's steak in particular having a lot of fat. I partially blame this on the sheer number of orders, but that was unfortunate. The roasted vegetables consisted of carrots and broccoli, and they had a nice char, along with the potatoes. The stuffing was standard, and I liked the unique gratin in particular, as it added an extra texture and saltiness to the dish. The gravy it came with was nice, with some richness and a good beefy flavor, which paired nicely with the Yorkshire pudding and the vegetables. Lastly, I used a small bit of the horseradish, which helped cut the richness. Overall, it was good, but if I had one of the other people's plates, I might have liked it a bit less. This is a tasty place with particularly good cocktails. They have thousands of good reviews for a very good reason. Good luck in DC and Austin as well.

The host was warm, enthusiastic, and had great energy to welcome us in. She made our first visit to this spot feel special. Our waitress was friendly, efficient, and checked in with us throughout the evening. There's also a cute photobooth to partake in (paid) if you'd like. Overall, a fun spot to have in your back pocket for post-show drinks or if you're visiting NYC on a bachelorette trip type of thing. (Would not recommend coming with coworkers)

    I usually go to Alamo Drafthouse in Brooklyn to watch movies but I got an invitation to a Soirée…read morehere for the movie, Wicked. I didn't know what to expect but I loved the Broadway show and I'm always down for immersive events. So I arrived at the Press Room and saw that there was a bar with a couple of tables surrounding it. It seems to be where the kitchen is for all the wonderful food that Alamo provides during the in-dining movie experience. I had to approach the bartender to find out where exactly this party was and he instructed me to look beyond the large curtain to the side just as if I were searching for the Wizard of Oz. As I tugged myself behind the curtain, I walked into a decent-sized room and with balloons and the words, "Welcome to Emerald City" in the front of the room with a DJ playing today's hits and of course, songs from the Wizard Broadway show. At first, I thought this was going to be a dance party but soon realized that it was going to be a craft party instead. There was a station for making your own broom, one to make a friendship bracelet, and another one for letter writing along with sealed wax to use on the envelope with different stamps. I sipped away an Old-Fashioned in my souvenir Wicked cup while singing along to the Wicked soundtrack and making a friendship bracelet for my daughter. This experience was relaxing and joyful so now I know my type of party consists of a craft night. Close to the end of the night, I participated in a Wicked costume contest. I lost but nevertheless, I had a good time. Ended the night with an order of burger before heading home to show off my creations. I can't wait to check out their other events and come here again!

    It's an enjoyable bar. It's slightly hidden away inside of an office building two flights down via…read morethe escalator next to the Alamo Drafthouse. Nice selection of alcohol, friendly bartenders and attentive service. Since it was tucked away it wasn't as crowded and I was able to spend an hour catching up with my friend and it wasn't overly crowded or loud.

The drinks were also pretty good and fairly priced! Really enjoyed my cucumber chili oil drink, it was savory and unique. Seating was limited though but our party managed to snag one once another party left. definitely a first come first serve concept.

Mood lighting, comfortable seating, great drinks in a cozy and Victorian-inspired space are the perfect blend of unique and. I always felt like I was part of something special the few times enjoyed creative, delicious, and strong libations from the pros at the bar. While it has always been pricey, I do feel like the excellent service ambiance, and drink quality warrant this, but may prevent more folks from becoming regulars so to speak. I love the clever and compact bathroom design, too. IYKYK Long live Apotheke!
