    My first meal in New Orleans since my last visit in 2013 -- and a great way to kick-off a few days in The Big Easy. The Asian Cajun Mix Grill was a fun fusion way to start things off. That night, I was lucky enough to have the rabbit (on special) with a mustard sauce, cheese grits and red beans & rice. Don't skip desert -- or the cocktails (ask your fabulous server for a recommendation) in this casual dining room that's a wee bit off the beaten path away from the throngs of tourists (like me).

    The service is great. Real New Orleans hospitality on display. Great for an intimate dining experience; fist date or established relationship. Also can accommodate small groups. I recommend reservations to ensure you have a spot. I had a business dinner meeting here and it was very good. The staff were intrusive yet attentive.

    This was our first time having the bbq shrimp sweet potato pie and oh my, it was so good!! The oysters were really good too but the pie is the star appetizer. The fish came out a bit undercooked which they fixed pretty quickly. It was very tasty and with the biggest lump crab cake ever that had a deliciously paired sauce with it. The decor is very Nola: warm, inviting, a bit eclectic but still in a relaxed, elegant way. The service was great too!

    Nice ambiance and friendly service. I enjoyed my Traiteur Fish (seared filet of gulf fish, jumbo crab cake, preserved lemon aioli). It was a big portion: I got two fish filets and a huge crab cake. The fish was excellent . Love the creole seasoning. The crab cake was crispy outside and very juicy inside - unfortunately I didn't get to finish it. It was too much food. My friend got the smoked gumbo with sausage, however she didn't like it. She said it was too smoky for her so much so that it tasted bitter after a while. She didn't finish it either.

    An excellent place to feel at home and eat delicious cajun cuisine. The service was friendly and unpretentious. It felt like being in someone's home who knows how to cook really amazing food. Everything we ate was not only tasty but cooked to perfection. I loved the fact that it was in an area that, as a tourist, I wouldn't typically have had on my radar. I loved my experience and would absolutely recommend Gabrielle to anyone visiting New Orleans.

    Hubby and I had a lovely date night here on a cool, Saturday evening in NOLA. The establishment is quite cozy and intimate. Felt like I was dining at someone's home, in the best way. Waitress was very polite and attentive. Our food and drinks were divine. The BBQ shrimp pie is a must try. Truly unique and delicious. I thoroughly enjoyed my veal roulade entree. This was my first time trying veal. It was perfectly tender and paired well with the lobster ravioli. Very rich in flavors. Hubby ordered the traiteur fish that was cooked and seasoned to perfection. Delicate and tasty. He did enjoy his meal but I will say, the jumbo lump crab cake that the fish was paired with surprisingly lacked luster and flavor, especially compared to everything else we had. Albeit, our overall experience was excellent and I would highly recommend this neighborhood establishment!

    Jambalaya

    I very highly recommend to make reservations because it's small yet very busy with a lively vibe. We went for the coolanary menu. I started with the gumbo and trust me, I'd go back just for that, the dark roux was delicious. Next up was the jambalaya, it was good but I was not big on one of the sauces tha was too garlicky for my taste. The peach shortcake was good but shortcake a bit dry. Husband very much enjoyed his wagu meatballs, squash and chocolate pecan pie. I do plan to return for the gumbo.

    Peppermint patty dessert

    Stopped here because their restaurant week menu looked intriguing and was overall blown away!!! One of the best restaurant experiences we've had in NOLA in a while. An unassuming hole in the wall on the outside with a very cutesy intimate dining room that pays homage to jazz fest with a lot of vintage decor. The service was top tier, as good as any renowned white table cloth restaurant and the deal could not be beat! Every dish we got was divine, prepared perfectly and came out so timely. We were waited on so attentively and happened to catch the tail end of their happy hour so ended up getting a great drink deal too! Will definitely have to come back soon.

    Worth a visit. The Trateur fish stood out. Chess pie was yummy. Service was very good. What's not to like?

    Is there a dress code for Gabrielle?

    I have seen folks in shorts and also folks in formal wear. So I think as long as you are wearing clothing... and yknow shoes, you'll be good.

    Hot N Cajun With no seated tables available when I arrived…read moreat Hot'n Cajun Boil House on Iberville Street in New Orleans, I happily accepted a seat at the bar. Behind the bar, Sandy mixed me a Summer Peach (Absolute Vodka, real peach, sweet tea, fresh lemon, $14) and provided the bib and gloves I likely would need if in fact I wanted to enjoy a crawfish boil. Of the dozens of restaurants I've visited in New Orleans, rare is the menu that includes a crawfish boil. Hot'n Cajun has it. I asked the barkeep Sandy B. if it was still crawfish season, and she assured me that it was. So I ordered 3 pounds of boiled crawfish (including potatoes and corn on the cob, $25.99), asked that the seasoning be "medium", and Sandy brought me a Model ($9) with a neat Maker's Mark ($12). The experience was pretty close to what I remember we'd find if invited to a neighbor's crawfish boil. Three pounds sounds like a lot, but the yield is more like half a pound, at most. So I put the gloves and bib on and started in on the crawfish. Nice presentation, and very good, fresh crawfish.

    AMAZING 10/10 We got 1lb of crawfish for $10 and ordered…read moresome snow crab and corn as well. For the crawfish we chose the house cajun blend + mild spice, and for the crab we chose the Louisiana style dry rub + mild spice. It was absolutely delicious, and reasonably priced. Our server was even kind enough to demonstrate the proper way to eat the crawfish. I'd highly recommend this place.
