    Visiting from FL & stumbled on this gem last night. Seems to be a local spot. Sat and ate at the…read morebar. Food was delicious & the bartender was very personable and provided excellent service. I had scallops & shrimp Mac & Cheese and it was delicious with very fresh seafood. My daughter had the Pollo Maria and she said very fresh with crispy breading. Our other family member had the flounder, shrimp & grits and it was the probably the tastiest out of all 3 dishes.

    Hey I really wanna go a "5" on this place (and outa 300+ reviews I don't have that many) BUT I…read morecan't because I've only been in once and that was at around 4ish...me and fellow Elite, Re H, were the only patrons.... Cassie was behind the bar and a true pro at working that whole liquor dispensing thing...Great attitude cause I'm not much of a beer drinker and so I had her run through the entire beer offerings and she did it with grace! Plus I mighta had a more prurient interest cause she had to bend over...Hey! I ain't proud but I am a guy!!! PS She also has a double barreled personality, if you know what I'm saying... Excellent locale right next to Milanos and just a class interior and decor...got a postage stamp stage and I was told they have live music...I have a feeling that if I ever visit this place after dark with a crowd I'll be updating to a 5...however this is a great place for day drinking and I say that because that's all I've ever done here but as stated above I'm sureI I'd love this place after dark!! If in Houma stop in tip an adult beverage and relax!!

The ambiance was absolutely stunning. We arrived at night, and even in the dim lighting, the charm of the space--from the books lining the walls to the velvet chairs and lush animal-print accents--created the perfect Saturday night vibe. It was also quieter than a typical bar, which made it feel refined and intimate; you can actually enjoy a real conversation while soaking in the beauty of the space. The drink menu is short but tasteful, with a wide range of profiles. With an exceptionally skilled bartender (sad I did not catch his name), every cocktail was perfectly balanced and beautifully executed. He was also happy to craft off-menu drinks by request. The host was also warm, funny, and attentive. We didn't get to try the food this time, but we're already looking forward to it on our next visit!

The entrance is nice with an overhead and plants lining the walk down into the lounge. Once you're in you're greeted by a hostess, who was actually a bit snarky and rude when seating us for our reservation (also said by another guest we spoke to). The actual space itself is moody, dimly lit with red accents throughout. It has a polished feel and the environment is incredibly intimate. Our waitress was very nice and made ordering with a party of 10 seamless. For our order we got a banana Negroni and a glass of white wine. The wine was great, crisp and sweet. The Negroni was strong and bold with the banana peeking through the drink with flavor. They also offer a few bites off their menu but we opted not to grab one there. The whole experience was fun and everyone liked their drinks. It's a great place to relax and get some drinks but the experience with the hostess was a bit off-putting. A great option if you're looking for a quiet, more refined cocktail lounge to enjoy a drink in NOLA.

The Apothecary was the cure. We grabbed seats mid bar and before we even finished settling in, there were waters waiting on the bar. That simple move already separated this place from the chaos outside. It's hospitality in its cleanest form: welcome in, take a breath, we got you. Inside is low light and old time apothecary mood, menus like a spellbook, but it's not gimmicky. The bartenders move like they've done the reps. Calm. Precise. No frantic showboating, no syrupy cover ups, no sloppy pours even with the parade energy banging on the door. We ordered two and they were both dead on. Alchemist Elixir: pea flower gin, elderflower liqueur, fresh lemon. It shows up pale violet with an orchid on the rim and yes it's pretty, but it's also disciplined. Floral without tasting like perfume. Bright without being sour. A drink that makes you slow down. Plus a magic chemists surprise. Corpse Reviver #2: local gin, Lillet Blanc, Grand Marnier, absinthe, fresh lemon. Cold, crisp, citrus first, then the herbal edge and just enough absinthe to remind you what city you're in. Served in a textured coupe with a cherry skewer, details handled like they actually matter. Outside, the streets were selling amnesia in plastic souvenir cups. Inside, The Apothecary was serving adults. Let Bourbon Street keep the grenades. Give me the anecdote .

Pina Coladas aren't usually my brand, but damn Gina...these are good! Hand blended and elevated to creamy perfection (hafta recommend the extra rum floater on top). We tried a Toffee & Tequila drink because the flavor combination won our curiosity (it tasted like an espresso drink which I don't enjoy) but we sure liked the thought. She switched to an off-menu drink the server recommended called a Saturn which was quickly emptied. I had a few bourbon & rum cocktails called the Fancy Bombo - and those got me right. We only wanted a couple of shareable small plates to hold us over so we tried the Crab Croquetas and corn tamal. The croquetas were had a crunchy fried exterior and cheesey crab goodness within. I could've eaten about 82 of them if we didn't have dinner reservations elsewhere a few hours later. The corn tamal was a polenta disc topped with so much deliciousness that had me considering cancelling my other reservations. As good as the food & drink are - the service really seals the deal. Everyone in the place is a foodie and exudes a level of sophistication when you inquire about anything. The staff is quick to engage, explain and recommend when called upon. There is a vibe here that will keep me coming back for more. I will just put this out there for those that may need it (and you know who you are) - if you are intolerant of different lifestyles, sexualities and flamboyance...this IS NOT a place you may care for. Many of the staff is diverse and LGBQT adjacent/forward. Don't misunderstand, this is not a place advertised as anything for a certain type of person or group, but if these things make you uncomfortable - don't ruin it for those of us that support all diversity.

They were so good! For dessert we had the brownie and the butter cake! The butter cake was amazing! The brownie a bit dry. I think the brownie would've been much better with ice cream. However, all in all the food was 10 out of 10 would recommend! As for drinks, we tried just about everything on the menu, and I would highly recommend anything with gin in it! While the food was amazing, the service was a bit slow... As this was my first time, that's what I can say. However, I was visiting family who has been here multiple times and they were surprised by the slow service. So my assumption is that it is not slow service typically. Our waitress was awesome and very polite! I really enjoyed the ambience of this restaurant! We were sat outside. I enjoyed the outdoor lighting and the music they were playing. Some might think the music was too loud, but I thought it was perfect! Would I recommend this place to other others? YES! I will be going back!
