Nico (sp?) was such a gem and treated us so well on the night my cousin and friends took me out to…read morecelebrate my birthday! I have a love/hate that they change their menu because I thought I did my due diligence and studied the menu and precious Yelp reviews to prepare what to order. But then the menu changed but it was fine bc Nico helped steer us to all the good stuff! We ordered a bunch of dishes and ate family style so we could try everything! The stand outs to me were the Pani Puri with the fiery mint water that you pour and lets you control the heat (you eat it in one bite), the Pork Dan Dan Buco Di Creste noodles (we asked not too spicy, we're getting older! Haha ), the Gulf Shrimp Pakora, and the ice cream pie from Lucy Boone! Mister Mao is where the old Dick and Jenny's restaurant used to be across from Rouse's on Tchoupitoulas. It's a little pricey but so worth it for a fancy night out!! And ask for Nico, he's the best!!

We came here for gals brunch a few months back. I loved the energy here. The staff, the bartender,…read morethe waiter are all quirky and fun. The decor kind of matches that energy. And so does their 'pics of cats' all over the menu. I am a cat person, so that won me over right there. They were running the special for a family style meal for $54 ++. You get to try so much, we decided to get 3 since there were 6 of us. I enjoyed the food more than the cocktails. The coffee cocktail was really not good and possibly my least fav coffee cocktail in the city. I think it needs a revamp. The ingredients are basically hoodoo chicory, it just tasted like all bitter. I didn't order any other drinks after that. I did try the gals drinks and they were all just ok. As for the food, I think the clear winner was the garlic noods. Not only did every slurp theirs up, fighting over it, almost all of us ordered a garlic noodle to go! That was top notch and I still thinking about that today! The dumplings were good, the shrimp was better than the rice dumpling. I enjoyed the ginger salad and fried chicken. It was an interesting fusion of flavors and a very fun atmosphere to be in. I will absolutely be back for the drool worthy garlic noodles.

What a spectacular, memorable evening…read more Recommended by local friends, this spot offers a Pan-Asian menu with a subtle New Orleans twist. It's a tasting menu only--very well priced at $95. The meal is structured in four "tranches," each with three choices. Our party of four managed to sample almost the entire menu. We started with cocktails and a dark chocolate Japanese ale, which set the tone nicely. Standout dishes included the tuna solera, scallion lamb, salt-baked shrimp, satay chicken, and key lime pie. Honestly, there wasn't a weak dish in the lineup. We all opted for the wine pairing ($75), which was thoughtfully selected and generously poured. Service was excellent throughout. All in, with tip, dinner for four came to about $1,200--and it felt well worth it. Highly recommended.

I went to the restroom, and when I came back, my napkin was folded. The food was beautiful, the portions were on the smaller side, but the dishes were unique and well composed. We ordered from the bar menu, but there is also a tasting menu. I ordered the lamb and a beef dish. The lamb wasn't my favorite, but my dining partner liked it. The milk bread and miso butter were my favorite part. The server sent me home with some of the butter. I also love that they have a tea menu. Beautiful white table cloth restaurant with moody lighting and a great bar program. I would go back for another girls' night. Heads up, if you book a reservation online, you have to put up a deposit. We ended up just walking in and sitting at the bar.

You won't regret it!

Not sure what alllll the hype is about this place. Was the food bad? No. Have I had it before? Yes…read more Nothing here set your staple Asian dishes apart from anywhere else and when the check came I was like ?? Not worth it. Wings could've had a crispier fry for the heavy sauce on top. It soaked in quick and made it a big soggy. Sauce was super sweet with low dimension in flavors. Crawfish fried rice - okayyy. Tasted like regular fried rice to me. Crab Rangoon was mostly just a cheese dip. The wonton chips and sweet chili on the side is the only thing that tied this dish together to remotely give it crab Rangoon inspired. Delete from your "must try" NOLA list - it's just not.

It's a small space, so I highly recommend making a reservation if you don't want to wait. To start, we ordered the Paloma and lychee cocktails--both refreshing and perfectly balanced. We also tried the Monkey Snack and Stoplight rolls. If you're into bold, complex flavor profiles, the Monkey Snack is a must. Sweet, tangy, and packed with flavor--it hits every note. The Stoplight roll brings just the right amount of heat thanks to the jalapeños, and the fish is incredibly fresh. But the real star for me? The curried dumpling broth. I seriously dream about it when I'm not in NOLA. It's so rich and flavorful that I almost finish the broth before touching the dumplings. Absolute comfort in a bowl. The tuna rangoons weren't my favorite, but still a solid dish. Overall, a staple spot for me anytime I'm in town. Consistently delicious with creative dishes that leave a lasting impression.

All hits, no misses. Another great meal at Luvi. It was popping on Friday night when we got there…read more Our server seemed a bit frazzled, but food service was still prompt. We opted for "Feed Me" and Chef always delivers really fresh seafood and creative flavors. I'm still not over the flounder that they made look like a flower- (see pic). Stunning presentation. We got a couple hot dishes too. I enjoyed the golden nugget- three good sized crispy fried shrimp balls served with delicious blueberry aioli. The hot splash noodles were tasty and sharable. Do get the trio of ice cream if you've got room- the ube cheesecake was my fave flavor. The sake pairing with feed me was also nice touch. Overall great value for quality and portions. Looking forward to our next visit.

Morrow Steak was an amazing find in New Orleans! From the ambiance to the service and food,…read moreeverything was exceptional. It's a quaint, upscale spot conveniently located near Canal Street and absolutely worth adding to your New Orleans dining list. I started with the kale salad, which was fresh and delicious, followed by the salmon with shrimp also delicious and beautifully prepared. The service was impeccable, and the atmosphere made the entire dinner feel special. New Orleans is known for gumbo and traditional Creole cuisine, and Morrow Steak offers those flavors as well, but don't be afraid to explore the rest of the menu. I'm glad I did! If you're visiting New Orleans and looking for a great dinner with excellent food, beautiful ambiance, and outstanding service, I highly recommend Morrow Steak. This is definitely a restaurant I would visit again!

I've had them bookmarked or the regular Morrow's for awhile. We were on a group trip and decided we…read morewould go here on Sunday afternoon. Upon entering, we weren't dressed and typical steakhouse attire and the server and hostess looked at a few of us that entered 1st and immediately asked did we want to see the menu, before asking any other questions. ***side eye*** Again, we weren't dressed the part, but don't judge a book by it's cover. As most of the group are professionals or business owners themselves. (Group contained 3 nurse practitioners, a funeral home owner, a restaurant owner, an hr generalist, etc etc... we know how to behave) The male manager with dreads took over and lightened the mood engaging and asking where we from and then sested us. They also ignored our attire. Credit given for that. Anywho, we were a party of 15, with no resy and were seated promptly and given 2 servers. The 1st server was the 1 asking about menus out the gate. He was quickly moved down to the friendly end of the table. Lol The other server Ken-STAR OF THE SHOW! 10 STAR SERVICE. He was so polite, engaged, and gracious. We hd him to stay on our end. Lol. He made our visit grand and worth every penny! No complaints for anyone out of 15. Of course we orderded numerous things. But I had the ribeye and lobster tail. The special butter sauce was little extra for my liking and it was even on my steak ICK, but that was my fault. My food was good! Steak temp was perfect. Drinks were ok, a little pricey. We were pleased. I would recommend and potentially return. Check them out!

All of the food is priced extremely reasonable - I'd happily pay more for the meal I had today. The fried rice dishes offer a spice level choice ranging from 1 to 5. I had the Thai fried rice at a spice level 3... eating this dish was the first time I've ever tasted flavor in a fried rice dish. A 10/10 flavor profile from a dish I usually steer clear of. The restaurant was lit very nicely; warm, moody lamps on each table and dimly lit overhead lighting ran through the entire place. Everything was clean and looked nice! I look forward to coming back to dine in.

Really nice meal before the show with my vegetarian friends…read more Recently a couple of friends and I needed to grab a quick bite. I thought we were going to another place when one of my guests suggested Thaihey across the street from the fire station on Decatur. Yes, sure. It's a typical Quarter restaurant with its long gallery seating. We were seated right away. The menu appeared to be heavily vegetarian which was great for my two friends. Many will understand the limited menu options for vegetarians at most places. Wes ordered Tom Kai, Becky the Massaman Jackfruit option and I the one with short rib. It was delicious. It was warm and comforting, full of flavor and the chef made it less spicy for me. What a delight to choose a menu option that I have never had and restaurant that I have never been to. You believe that I'll return for certain. Especially for that gorgeous Mai Tai!

I'm a vegetarian (no eggs), I don't eat onions or mushrooms too…read more1. We ordered the vegetarian dumplings (fried and steamed) - we loved the dumplings They were soooooo good 2. Pad Thai Noodle - we loved this so much and they accommodated our needs of no onion and mushroom in all the dishes 3. Spicy Thai Fried Rice - was god too 4. Spicy Szechuan Hot Wok - this was my favourite 5. Coconut Soup with Tofu was so good Overall our experience was great. I'm not sure why did this restaurant have an option of either we can only have veggies or only tofu? I mean I have never seen it. Veggies are in the dishes regardless and the choice of protein is what is optional so that is something which I was not happy with honestly. (That's why 4/5) The service was good, our server was very warm and friendly. The ambiance was good too.
