After reading several reviews, I was optimistic about selecting LaGarde as the location to celebrate a friend's B-Day. We decided to do brunch, and sat on the patio that overlooked a trail reminiscent of the beltline. The interior and exterior decor was well appointed, with a vibrant bar, the interior dining from the covered patio. Beyond that I noticed additional seating outside that wasn't covered near a Green Egg smoker. Our server Hannah promptly greeted us and took our drink orders while allowing time to review the menu and ask questions. In addition to the brunch menu, there was also specials listed to allow for many delicious sounding options. The B-day lady ordered a veggie omelette which allowed for customization of ingredients. I ordered the jambalaya which came with Sunnyside up eggs. As that was not my preference, I specifically asked for egg whites only. Prosecco and coffee were our beverages of choice. The food wait time was average for the number of people in the restaurant and the accommodation of our preferences. Unfortunately, my eggs were not cooked to specification; one was the advertised sunny side up and the other appeared to be fried. The jambalaya lacked the Cajun flavor accustomed to receiving in NOLA and a few other metro Atlanta restaurants. The manager discounted my meal with an apology for the egg debacle. The omelette was tasty and my friend enjoyed the fans installed on patio to keep the air circulating. I truly enjoyed the location and the decor per attached pictures. Location had ample parking and several other shops. Did not care for the order mixup or the wait staff throwing drinks that people left on the table into the area situated just beyond our tables. I do understand that it probably was easier to carry empty glasses, but still daunting nonetheless. Overall cute spot and possibly worth revisiting. read more

The Buffalo Mac and cheese and the frozen espresso martinis, 10/10. The service and ambiance has gone a bit down hill as I used to be a frequent brunch attendee but not as much due to the quality being a bit worse now read more

We always love LaGarde. It is a "go to" restaurant for us on weekends. The oyster & shrimp po boys are great, burgers, oysters, cocktails , wine - all good and can be very casual. We love LaGarde! read more

I wasn't too impressed with this establishment. So I'll just jump right in with the food first. Everything pictured wasn't tasty at all outside of the shrimp, which was just okay. The fried green tomatoes, smoked wings, gumbo, and I can't speak on the broccoli because my friend ordered that, and they didn't have any complaints. I wanted to love the pumpkin cheesecake, but I didn't get the chance to try it because it came out with a hair stuck to it :( Now the new old fashioned was the star of the show. Anything else at this point didn't even matter. Our server, I forgot her name was friendly and pretty much absent like Ferris Bueller's Day off, but who cares this gave my friend and I, time to catch up. Lagarde has a cute little setup and patio that would be nice in the warmer months, but I definitely won't return to find out unless it's for drinks only. The food you can miss me with it. read more

Had an excellent time here. The food, the service, and the atmosphere was top tier. Even the drinks were good. We were seated outside on a beautiful day with a nice breeze. Our server was very accommodating and attentive. The oysters, fried calamari and octopus, and deviled eggs were delicious. Though the eggs were a little pricey for the portion. The desserts hit the spot to finish the meals. Chocolate cake for me and bread pudding for my guest. I definitely recommend this place. read more

Started off the night with one of their Holiday Drinks called the Dirty Santa which includes eggnog. I would say the drink was a 10/10, along with the dirty hot chocolate. We did substitute the shot of liquor for Baileys. As for appetizers I got six oysters which were fresh and nice, they have them for 1.00 on Tuesdays. The next item I had was the deviled egg, they were okay as they were pretty cold and I prefer them room temp. It was topped with a piece of Fried chicken, I will give it a 7/10. Lastly for my Entree I had the Atlantic Salmon which was a 10/10, I just wished the sides were more especially for the price. Overall I had a great experience as they are currently doing a christmas theme so the restaurant is decorated nicely. I will come back soon! read more

Lagarde American Eatery - Christmas Decor - New American Near Me - Chamblee, Georgia

Since this location in Chamblee opened, Mark and I have enjoyed all of our visits here. Service and food is consistently very good. The happy hour specials are a great value for both the quality of the food and cocktails. We treated ourselves again to the happy hour specials and regular menu items. Tuesday is our favorite for the raw oyster specials of $1 per oyster. The oysters were fresh and had medium brine. We ordered the happy hour deviled eggs served with a fried shrimp and green goddess dressing, plus the seared scallops served over parsnips puree and corn succotash. We also ordered the pomegranate and pear salad and a variety of cocktails. All of the food service was excellent!!! read more

We decided to travel from our northern suburbs to Brookhaven to try a new (at least new to us) place. We found Lagarde and decided to give it a try. This is a cool, hip spot, which seems to match the eat, play, live development it sits in. As you walk in, there is window that displays fresh oysters on ice with a display kitchen beyond it. That display prompted us to order some fresh and briny oysters from VA. They were served with local hot sauces, horseradish, saltines. mignonette, and cocktail sauce. We ordered crispy Brussels sprouts which came with a remoulade . They were fine, but not much different from the many other places serving the same thing. Is it just me or are Brussels sprouts becoming the hummus and pita of the 2020's? We also ordered the kale and arugula salad. It had apples, orange segments, craisins, pepitas, and quinoa (needed a microscope to see it) with an orange vinaigrette. I'm not sure there was any kale in our salad, and the vinaigrette was pretty harsh for it having orange in it. For entrees, we ordered the trout. They were out so a maple glazed salmon with roasted broccoli and very pedestrian smashed potatoes ( they really had no taste). We also got jambalaya with shrimp, andouille, and chicken. It was a nice portion and had a pretty authentic taste. But, it came out sort of lifeless, with no garnish or anything. For $19, we expected more. Lastly, we got the shrimp po'boy with tots. This has some sweet, fresh shrimp, some of the same remoulade, lettuce, tomato, and sweet pickles ( a nice surprise touch). I chose tots as my side, which were crispy, and seasoned with some sort of Cajun seasoning. They were addictive. The service was very present, cleared plates regularly, and we did not thirst for water. The food came pretty quickly as well. Ultimately, I feel this should be 3.5 stars and not the 4 as marked above. The prices are jacked up ( like everywhere), and there are some details getting missed (mashed potatoes and salad). It's a nice addition to the area, though I don't think I'd travel to it again. read more

Lagarde American Eatery - Oysters on the half shell - New American Near Me - Chamblee, Georgia

We had a good Sunday brunch at Lagarde American Eatery in Chamblee. What printed on my receipt sums this place up: "American Cuisine with a New Orleans influence." One thing I like about Lagarde is you can book brunch reservations. I think it's always a plus if a restaurant offers brunch reservations so you don't have to wait. This place got pretty busy during our visit, but it didn't quite reach max capacity. The restaurant is in a cool-looking, modern, freestanding building in the Parkview on Peachtree development. Same development as the Windsor Parkview apartments (formerly Solis Parkview) and restaurants like Fudo (https://bit.ly/41zYhFn) and The Alden (https://bit.ly/3HbUrKb). Lagarde is from the same folks behind Il Giallo in Sandy Springs (https://bit.ly/43Yw6kY). This location, the original, opened in November 2019. A second location opened in Milton in January 2023. There's plenty of free parking on-site. Lagarde had a fun, casual, and relaxed vibe. There's a sizable wraparound bar and a variety of indoor and outdoor seating. They have both an uncovered outdoor patio (with umbrellas and string lighting) and a fully-enclosable patio. The indoor dining room has both table and booth seating. When we visited, there was live music outside. Fun elements include colorful wall graphics inside and a cow statue outside. Near the entrance is an oyster bar, part of the open kitchen. I love oysters and that was one thing that drew me to this place. Before our visit, I looked at Lagarde's menus online and was disappointed to see that raw oysters were only available on the dinner menu. However, at the restaurant, there was a daily specials menu (not online) that featured three kinds of raw oysters - a pleasant surprise. So, they did serve raw oysters at brunch. Here's most what four of us got: Daily Specials * Deviled Eggs ($9) - fried chicken with "Lagarde sauce" and house plain * Fresh raw oysters ' Blackberry x2 (VA, $2.75 each) - moderate brine, light finish ' Whitestone x6 (VA, $3.25 each) - mild salinity, clean mineral finish ' Smith Point x4 (WA, $3.00 each) - moderate brine, sweet finish Snacks * Short Rib Totchos ($10) - slow-braised short rib, BBQ sauce, Swiss cheese fondue, green onions Brunch * Salmon Benedict x2 ($18 each) - two salmon cakes (red and green peppers, onion, mayo), brunch potatoes, two poached eggs, Hollandaise * The Lagarde Plate ($13) - three eggs any style (sunny side up here), andouille sausage, tomato, and cheesy grits * Croque Madame ($14) - brioche, ham and cheese, Mornay sauce, sunny side egg, with brunch potatoes (cheesy grits also an option). Dessert * Bread Pudding ($9) - spicy caramel, and Oreo cookie crumbles and whipped cream Specialty Cocktails * Aviation ($10.50) - McQueen and the Violet Fog Gin, Luxardo Maraschino, creme de violette, lemon; chilled, up, maraschino cherry * Coffee x2 In general, the food was tasty. The Deviled Eggs came with five pieces. We ordered a "half and half" option where we got three with fried chicken with Lagarde sauce and two plain. I preferred the pieces with fried chicken with Lagarde sauce because they were tastier, but the plain was fine too. I'm not sure how to describe the Lagarde sauce other than it was a creamy, mildly-peppery, I think mayo-based sauce. The oysters were terrific. I didn't prefer one kind over another. I could barely tell the differences between them. What mattered was they all tasted fresh and scratched the itch. A couple oysters weren't shucked cleanly and had shell fragments. That's always annoying. Also, when the ice melted in my tray, my tray leaked water. The oysters came with cocktail sauce, mignonette, and lemon. We also asked for horseradish and hot sauce. The horseradish was nice and strong. We got three kinds of hot sauce, all local Samson's Bite Sauce Company brand: Ghost Pineapple, Mixed Chili, and Mango Habanero. The Short Rib Totchos (tater tot nachos) were excellent, my favorite. My tablemates and I disagreed on the consistency of the tots. I thought they were OK. Someone got a side of fries (not listed above). The texture of the fries was fantastic -- delectably crispy. The best thing about the Short Rib Totchos was the Swiss cheese fondue on top. It was really good. The Short Rib Totchos were on the regular brunch menu. We were also considering the Special Totchos on the daily specials menu. Those were made with Chicken Parmesan and mozzarella. The Salmon Benedict was good. The dish was well made, filling, and satisfying. The eggs were perfectly poached. The Bread Pudding was an ideal brunch dessert. It came with two giant dollops of whipped cream and Oreo cookie crumbles all over. The bread pudding itself had a wonderful texture and was rich and savory. I recommend it. Our table was too small to fit our order. I was rushed to finish the apps. Our server was Serena B. She was friendly and did a great job. During a busy brunch service, everything we ordered came out fairly quickly. read more

I showed up a little earlier than dinner time around 5pm so it wasn't busy but honestly, this place needs to be MORE busy! The food, service, & drinks are excellent !! I got a little crazy and got the Hand Grenade for a drink and .. it is not for the faint of heart But it definitely did its job! They do not skimp on the alcohol ! For starters we had the Fried Green Tomatos and the Daily Special deviled eggs and SO GOOD. The breading to green tomato ratio was perfect! For my main, I had the Bayou Pasta and it was a great mesh of seafood and meats and it was nice and flavorful. All the food came out in such a fast and timely manner and I didn't really have to ask my waitress for anything because she was so on top of it ! We had the Bread Pudding for dessert and it was perfect because it wasn't TOO sweet to the point where I felt a cavity but it was just sweet enough. And it came out so nice and warm - Honestly, hate off to the chef I recommend trying this place and I know I'll be back to try more things ! read more

The food wasn't bad and the atmosphere was nice. I think they were short staffed or maybe got the tables assignments mixed up which caused a delay in service.

This place was just okay. I went with my friend whose been a frequent customer recently and unfortunately wasn't impressed. I ordered the blackened catfish w/ Mac and collards and the highlight of the plate was the fish. The Mac n cheese was bland, even after adding salt and pepper to try to season it up. The greens came with ham so I picked out what I could and they had a decent flavor but it still wasn't impressive. When I left, my plate was still half full unfortunately (and I don't like to waste food honey!) . I'm glad I didn't order the overpriced oysters ($17 for 1/2 dozen) because I have a feeling those would have been disappointing as well having lived in New Orleans for 10+ years. Overall, I wouldn't go back. read more

This food is good asf! I got Cajun fries to go along with my Po Boy that didn't happen. They were so delicious that I devoured them in my car on the ride home. I got a half and half shrimp and oyster poboy! They named it Shoyster poboy! Real New Orleans cuisine! 11/21 I was sad when Adeles On Canton closed because of the seafood menu. Now I don't have to make that drive to Roswell GA. This new restaurant is Authentic New Orleans! The poboy comes on the French Leidenheimer Bread iykyk! I'm from Savanah Georgia near the water so I got to have me some seafood! This location is close to me being in Chamblee I live in Clarkston. Definitely one of the best poboy I ever had in my entire life. I spoke with the Manager while waiting for my order he's cool as ice water. I definitely saw more items on the menu to make me return. This food is the creme de le creme! read more

I absolutely am in love with this restaurant. To the freshness of the oysters to the tasteful Ness and their food. Make sure you check out their oyster special every Tuesday from open to close. Great hot sauce selection!! Also, check out their pasta. Yes absolutely delicious I think about it all the time as chicken and shrimp, bell peppers, garlic tomato sauce, based!! I also like their jambalaya, which also comes with chicken and shrimp. It has a cake to it, but not too spicy. I add the sauce from the pasta I get all the way to greatness try it out. Service is impeccable the servers really know the food and always friendly. I love the layout of the restaurant built with tall glass windows and they have a balcony with heaters!! read more

Visited Lagarde for a girls' Sunday brunch. Parking was pretty easy for me, the lot wasn't terribly packed and I was able to snag a spot very close to the door! Let's talk about the pandemic punch. It's delicious and dangerous. I could have drank 5, but I had things to do after brunch that day (LOL). Whenever we go out, the girls and I like to order several apps and try a bit of everything. This time we ordered Deviled Eggs, Nola BBQ Shrimp, Grilled Oysters, Hush Puppies, and Calamari. Everything was good. The only app I didn't "love" were the Hush Puppies - they're not completely smooth/blended like I prefer. They do have what I believe are peppers inside, so just a heads up if you're big on texture like I am. Our server was fantastic, but I've forgotten her name. She was very attentive and kept our water glasses full. She was great about asking about another round of cocktails and getting our new drinks to us quickly. That's not always possible with a group of 6+, but I was impressed by how she worked our table efficiently by herself. Overall, I'll be sure to visit Lagarde again and try some other goodies. Thanks for a great Sunday brunch! read more

Underwhelming. The blackberry mocktail was delicious, but tiny. The setup is average and same with the service. Nothing special. I had the Mussels and goat cheese fritters, and was disappointed. The Mussels were salty and the fritters were flavorless - except the obvious goat cheese. They skimp severely on the hot honey that goes with it and they don't season the batter or cheese itself. I won't be back intentionally. read more
