Atmosphere: If you are looking for a Romantic Restaurant to pop the question, or just add a little romance of wine & dine in a romantic restaurant with excellent top notch Italian cusine and ***** Star Service, then Jazzeppi's is the place for you!! The best atmosphere I have experienced in a very long time. One of the yelpers on here mentioned this restaurant does not accept children diners; that is not correct! I phoned ahead of time and asked, I was informed they have private dining areas that can and will accommodate children of all ages. However, due to the romantic ambiance, and heavy restaurant traffic at peak dinner service on Friday & Saturday evenings, it is suggested to call ahead to see if the private dining is available for children. If the restaurant is booked on those peak nights, then they will have to turn down young diners. Our reservation was for a Wednesday evening at 7:30pm. I was up front in booking my reservation and inquired about the yelper stating children are not accepted at this establishment; I was asked how many children and what are the ages of the children? I replied, one child age 5 and my reservation was booked in the private dining room immediately without hesitation. This restaurant DOES accommodate children of all ages during weekday nights, however, I suggest you phone ahead and are upfront regarding the children's ages and # of children in your party. We did take our five year old on a Wednesday evening at 7:30pm and we were graciously greeted and pleasantly accommodated. Having a private dining room all to ourselves was really nice! My 5 year old thought it was soooo cool! They do not offer a kid's menu, yet the portions were pleasantly sizeable and the meatballs & spagetti can easily accommodate two children. The yelpers were all correct in the pleasant atmosphere and adult ambiance. The waitstaff was top notch, better than the 5 star restaurants in New Orleans; better than Commander's Palace & Antoinne's, very courteous, pleasant and our water glass never ever went 1/2 full.
Bar: An extensive wine list, fully stocked bar, the best Martini Bar on the entire Gulf Coast, and you must try the Chocolate Martini, it is Delicious!
Food: If Italian cusines is your style, this is the restaurant for you!!! Being Sicilian Italian with a family heritage that goes back to Palermo, Sicily, Italy, the food here at Jazzeppi's is top notch 5 Stars! We started off with an appetizer of Crab cakes which are loaded with real crab meat, served with 2 sauces, celery remoulade and tangy sweet pepper sauce, which are of a large portion of four cakes total, that were absolutely delicious! All entrees came with a salad, we selected Balsmic Vineagrette dressing and it was delicious, fresh, crisp and ice cold. My 5 year old ordered Spaghetti & Meatballs, large portion size with two jumbo meatballs, made sicilian style over angel hair pasta with red sauce. I usually never order Meatballs in a restaurant, simply because I'm use to mine and most restaurant Meatballs taste like the meatballs are made with potted me or some cheap kind of meat and do not have any flavor....NOT JAZZEPPI'S....The absolute BEST Meatball I have ever tasted in any restaurant in my life; taste like the Meatball was made in my own kitchen, I'm not kidding you!!! My husband ordered Chicken Marsala, the chicken was very tender and juicy, you could cut it with a fork, the wine Marsala sauce with loaded mushrooms over angel hair pasta keeps your mouth watering for more! I ordered the Veal Mattina, Paneéd veal with shrimp, jumbo lump crabmeat, crawfish tails and artichoke hearts in a Chardonnay cream sauce, served over angel hair pasta, pricey but can I tell you....worth every penny. The portion was a bit large, the flavors explode in your mouth and was the best Italian dish I have ordered in my life. I strongly recommend this dish! My previous visit to this restaurant, I ordered the Lassagna, it was absolutely delicious; these days, the original Lassagna is no longer on the menu but Lassagna Florentine, Lassaga with Spinach, which I enjoy yet my son does not each spinach, which is why he ordered the Spaghetti & Meatballs this time. For dessert, they offered a Tiramisu, Chocolate Cheescake & Regular Cheesecake, we opt for the Chocolate Cheesecake and it was absolutely delicious! A Chocolate Cheesecake that was fluffy like a mousse yet creamy like Cheesecake, best of both worlds, drizzled in chocolate sauce & strawberry sauce, topped with white chocolate & dark chocolate shavings, you must save room for this dessert! I have posted a picture of the private dining room we were in, the exact table, the crab cakes, & Veal Mattina; The restaurant is the top 5 Star of all 5 Stars! If you want to impress your date, you spouse, want an elegant restaurant that offers a great ambiance, this is the restaurant you want to ask your girlfriend to marry you! A memorable occasion and a regular visit for us on the Mississippi Gulf Coast!
