I'm so confused about the reviews. Bourrée is... awesome. To enter, you step inside an enchanted courtyard with industrial wire spools repurposed as smart outdoor tables. There is both covered and exposed seating, however all of the seating is beneath the canopy of an elder oak tree. The landscaping is carefully homegrown with beautiful greenery and pretty flowering shrubs to greet you upon arrival. There's also a stage where you can enjoy live music. Once inside, you're greeted by welcoming staff who are proud of what they serve. The interior is modest, with nice rustic carpentry. Bourrée is to Boucherie as Cochon Butcher is to Cochon. It's a wing and daiquiri spot, but the wings are natural (read: smaller than the hormonal wings we're used to) and the daiquiris are dry, just the way I like them. Mr. Tea is my favorite of their daiquiris because sugar isn't the first thing I taste, instead I'm actually getting that antioxidental brewed tea flavor. Never thought I'd want that from a daiquiri, but as it turns out, I do. Their fries are some of my favorite in the city: shoestringy with crispy ends, the skin still on, salty, and plentiful. We also love their version of fried Brussels sprouts which taste of maple-citrus with bites of Tasso mixed in for good measure. My only gripe was with the jerk wings which didn't taste of jerk, just spicy. And if I'm being honest, the wings aren't the best of what they offer. They make everything in house with quality standards as high as Boucherie.

My receipt for my meal.

I paid for a meal at Bourree and then posted this review but somehow Yelp keeps flagging and deleting my review even though I have attached a photo of my receipt proving that I'm reviewing an experience I paid for. This is also not to mention that I have been eating the food at Bourree for decades and I have a far longer experience in the area than Yelp has been in existence. Perhaps someone with actual reading comprehension can look at this review without deleting it AGAIN. Bourree Cajun Smokehouse is an expansion of Chef Nathanial Zimet's Boucherie Restaurant which is right at the end of the block and around the corner. The building that Bourree is currently in was an Italian restaurant for a long time that opened back in the 90's called Café Nino that was run by the owner Chef Nino who was a fantastic fellow. Café Nino was a cash only dive joint where you selected from the daily entrees on display in a cafeteria style buffet and they also had pizza. So I always have a hard time adjusting to the fact that this spot is no longer Café Nino but is now Bourree. Now I have been eating the 12 Hour Roast Beef Po'Boy with horseradish cream & pickled red onion from Chef Zimet ever since he started selling it out of his purple food truck and at many of the local festivals. These days the only festival where they still sell their food is at the Oak Street Po-Boy Festival. So if you find yourself in the mood for a fantastic 12 hour roast beef po boy on Dong Phong banh mi bread this is the spot to get it! They also have some nice daquirie and beer options here. They also offer live music at certain times of the week so make sure to check their schedule for that. There are tables inside but they don't have a lot of space inside and the majority of their seating is located in front on their wonderful outdoor patio area. The menu is a bit concise here but they do have some nice items on offer here. This is also a great venue for events and I recently attended a nice one here. Overall this is a nice spot located in a beautiful area of the Riverbend right off St. Charles Avenue and is certainly worth checking out!

Beef Fat Fries. Great seasoning.

So I wanted to like it. I ignored the recent 1 star reviews because I wanted a roast beef poboy. Unfortunately they were accurate. It seems like they keep the roast beef soaking in the horseradish sauce. The beef tallow fries earned them a second star. Whatever they used to do with the food to get 5 star reviews, they need to go back to that. The service was good, but the restaurant could use a good cleaning.

Bourée is a quaint little smokehouse tucked away inside a gated garden. The atmosphere is fantastic, particularly on days pretty enough to take advantage of the large amount of outdoor space. I want to counter some reviews I see calling the place dirty. I've never seen it dirty. This is New Orleans. The building is old. Old does not mean dirty. It's a smokehouse that will remind you of a New Orleans dive bar inside. The daiquiris are not traditional, but they are good. They aren't 50% simple syrup and 50% liquor like New Orleans Original. The tea based daiquiri does taste like tea. If you're looking to get messed up before going out, it probably isn't for you. If you want a classy tasty take on a daiquiri, you won't be disappointed. Everyone is always friendly and welcoming, and orders come out quickly.

Cute little spot!!! They have amazing meat pies served with a side of crema!!! So amazing. One guy working when we visited so by the time we left he was swamped! 2 of the 3 frozen daiquiri machines weren't working, so Mr. Tea Time it was!!! All made to order stuff, so be prepared for a wait depending on what's ordered. Great stop on our trolley tour.

We went here on a Monday and arrived as it opened. One soul manned the counter and although out of quite a bit- made us a fabulous lunch. The weather was wonderful and we were able to sit outside while we ate and had a drink.

I love the outdoor space and delish daiquiris! The brussel sprouts were some of the best I've had too! Service was also great!

Really fun and relaxed barbecue place, perfect for takeout in the summer and great for picnic table dining when it's cooler. Really liked the bbq nachos and the barbecue pork sandwich. Nicely smoked meat, sauce that complements the meat. Decent selection of brews. You order up front and the food is delivered to your table. Casual and laid-back vibe.

We had Boris as our server, and he stood out from the very beginning. He was not only pleasant and attentive, but also extremely knowledgeable and made excellent recommendations. What really impressed us was that he took our very specific order without a pen or paper--he memorized everything perfectly! The food came out quickly, and the entire staff worked together seamlessly. It was truly a great dining experience from start to finish. And the desserts were to die for! I highly recommend trying the gumbo, shrimp platter, bread pudding, and chocolate mousse. Everything was delicious. The only downside is the parking. Street parking is available, as well as paid parking options, but it can be a little challenging. Overall, a wonderful experience with great food, excellent service, and a fantastic team. Highly recommended!

We came in Saturday night without a reservation and only had to wait a few minutes. Our waitress was amazing from the second we sat down. I really wish I remembered her name because she was super attentive, funny, patient, and honestly made the whole experience even better. My boyfriend and I started with the Creole oysters and OMG... probably some of the best oysters I've ever had. They were incredibly flavorful, and dipping the bread into all that sauce afterward was SO good. My mother-in-law had the fried calamari, which came with remoulade, and she really enjoyed it. For my entrée, I had the jambalaya with chicken and andouille sausage. It was definitely spicy, but really, really good. My boyfriend and mother-in-law both had the grilled red snapper topped with their creamy crawfish sauce, and they loved it. My father-in-law had one of the oyster specials with shrimp and crawfish, which was also excellent. We finished with dessert... boyfriend and I had a chocolate mousse/cake dessert and my in-laws had the bread pudding. Everything was delicious. The atmosphere was casual and fun, they had the football games playing on the TVs, and our waitress was fantastic the entire night. Just an overall great experience. If you love seafood and oysters, definitely give this place a try. I would 100% come back!

It's either this place or another popular joint across the street. Hot N Cajun won me over seeing their photos on Yelp/Google reviews . I am not much of a southern fried seafood type of person, so their seafood boil platter won me over. We luckily didn't wait to long for a party of 3 . Not much fan fair here, tables lined with Hot N Cajun logos printed on some type of parchment paper on our table. Gloves , bibs , crab claws and wet naps are provided . The menu has no price list, waiter will hand a separate sheet of paper with the most updated market price. We opted for some blue moon beer, lobster boss ( 1 lobster tail, 1/2 lbs of headless shrimp and a cluster of crab legs) of course all seafood combo included corn, potatoes and sausages. Don't like the combo pack definitely can build your own plate. The sauce was so good , I recommend to purchase a bowl of white rice or bread to sop up the flavorful sauce, would not want it to go to waste. Service, food and ambience was great,

That's on us, but respect the choice of not serving inferior crawfish. They have multiple sauces and spice levels to tailor to your taste. We always prefer Vietnamese influenced seafood boils with extra sauce and fresh garlic. The shrimp was perfectly cooked, both head on and headless. The lobster, snow crab, and blue crabs were all fresh also. The wings were dry rubbed and I would avoid that. The wait can be long. Restaurant was clean.

We happened to…read morebe walking by the restaurant earlier in the day when they were closed, and a gentleman came out of the restaurant and saw us looking at their menu. He then proceeded to tell us how amazing the restaurant is and what care they take in picking out the quality of the ingredients and what a great place it is to work. He was very proud to work there. So, we decided to make a reservation there for our last night in New Orleans. My husband and I actually eloped earlier in the day, prior to our dinner. We arrived at the restaurant a little early and we went and sat at the bar, and the bartender ladies were fun and amazing! We told them we had just been married a few hours earlier and they all celebrated with us. Best old fashioned I've ever had also, and I've had quite a few! The atmosphere is sophisticated but relaxed. Just lovely. We had the shrimp cocktail for an appetizer and it was perfect. Once we were seated we ordered the NY strip and crab cakes for our entrees along with the puffed corn souffle and charred brussel sprouts. OMG so good. All of it. So freaking good. For dessert we ordered the butter cake and it was heavenly. They surprised us with prosecco and they really helped to make our day so much more special than it already was. The manager kept checking on us, our waitress was amazing. Just an all around incredible dining experience and we feel so blessed to have just been in the right spot at the right time to have that gentleman tell us how wonderful it was there. Thank you to everyone who helped us celebrate on Tuesday night! You were wonderful!

I loveeeee Bon Ton! Easily one of my favorite steakhouses in New Orleans!…read more I have so many favorites on the menu, but I always start with the Bon Ton Oysters and the Hearts of Romaine Caesar salad. You can add bacon to the salad, which I sometimes do depending on my mood. My usual entrée is the filet, but when I'm in the mood for fish, their redfish is an excellent choice. You HAVE to get it Cajun style! The crawfish mac and cheese is absolutely to die for and easily one of my favorite sides. The only thing I would pass on is the crispy Cajun steak fries. I've found them to be pretty hit or miss. One thing I've noticed is that every time I've visited, the restaurant has been relatively empty and never crowded, which honestly makes for a nice, relaxed dining experience. Overall, Bon Ton is definitely one of my go-to steakhouses in New Orleans. The food keeps me coming back!

I really like "the chicken & the egg" appetizer which is a deviled egg with fried chicken and some pepper jelly. The NOLA nuggets (fried catfish bites) are great too.

They do a really great Sunday brunch, highly recommend getting a reservation because it gets packed. Very loud and busy on Sundays with live music so don't come here if you're looking for a quiet meal. It's wheelchair accessible and not bad for parties, but it's not a huge place so if you do make a party reservation you can expect to still wait a little while for your table, but trust me, it's worth the wait.
