    This was my entree in a go box. No, I didn't even touch the meal- small portions!
    Hannah B.

    This has been a favorite restaurant for many years. Always have loved it- bit disappointed with this occasion. I took my mom here for her birthday and chose the the 7 course meal plan. Bread basket was small in selection. The three butters were great! Between the pork cheeks and the mango crab cakes I was in heaven. I had the duck and okra gumbo- it was so so. Zero okra at all. Beet and crab salad was fantastic just extremely small. Crab meat was sweet and lumped perfectly. Lemon basil sorbet was amazing! I truly wanted more!!! The main meal was not great. I chose the lobster. It was TINY! Very disappointed with it. Flavor was not great at all. Dessert was lava cake and bananas foster. Lava was mediocre at best. Bananas foster was good. Overall, I'm really sad with my meal. I spent almost $300.00 and left dissatisfied.

    Mint julep creme brûlée! Delicious!
    Heather L.

    The Houmas House is simply enchanting! The grounds are breathtaking and the service across the board is outstanding - from the woman in the gift shop who took our day-of reservation over the phone to the exceedingly talented gentlemen bartenders at the Turtle Bar to the waiter we enjoyed at Latil's for our excellent meal and dessert! We will definitely be recommending this extraordinary culinary, mixology and aesthetic adventure to everyone we know who's planning a trip to New Orleans - definitely worth the drive out if you're staying in the French Quarter like we are. Turtle Bar: John and Derek are amazing - extensive and rare alcohol selections with expert, unbelievable mixologists who routinely come up with mind blowing creations... Latil's: BBQ shrimp appetizer, Houmas House Salad with locally sourced blue cheese (phenomenal), cranberry sorbet aperitif with Grey Goose topper, filet mignon with fingerling potatoes and Red Fish with ratatouille and local fresh veggies, finished with mint julep creme brûlée - stunning presentation and exquisite flavors!!

    Cafe Burnside Menu

    We ate at Cafe Burnside for lunch (it is called Latil's Landing for the more upscale dinner service I guess?) after taking a weekday tour of the Houmas house and gardens because it is there on the grounds. The menu is relatively well rounded for its size and for a restaurant serving a tlimited clientele (Houmas House tourists and a few locals). Service was good, if a little scattered and unorganized--the poor Swiss tourists seated by us were completely forgotten about for 15 minutes after getting their menus. Every table gets a basket of bread and sweet pecan butter. They did offer daily specials during our vist, but we ordered the burger and the catfish to split. The burger comes with basically every topping you could want (cheese, lettuce, tomato, grilled onions, bacon, mayo) and great fries. It was well cooked and tasted good, not to mention it seemed to be pretty popular throughout the restaurant. The catfish had a delicious cornmeal batter and the crawfish etouffee was decent, but the rice it was served over was a little weird for the style of the dish (curry powder or turmeric flavor to it....hmmm) and the asparagus side was pretty flavorless--not even garlic or butter. Many around us ordered dessert and I noticed the shrimp po-boy was absolutely stuffed, which kind of made me jealous so you might try it out. Overall, if you are in the area or touring the Houmas House then this is a perfect place to stop. It is not an overwhelmingly delicious restaurant, but it definitely is good and will please most anyone in your crowd.

    Crab and Mango Cake Salad
    Kate W.

    I came for brunch with a party of 7 and absolutely loved the experience. The food was exceptional and the service was very nice. I would definitely recommend a brunch here. The best part is walking around the gardens afterwards. Here's the rundown: *Bloody Marys are delish, with a little bit of spice to them. Brandy Milk Punch, not so much. They didn't know how to make it. Stick to the basics! *Their bread basket includes dragonfly shaped mimosa biscuits (awesome!) and they serve the bread with 3 kinds of butter. The pecan spice one was divine. *Their prices are very good for the quality of the food you get. Put it this way, we went to another Cajun restaurant and for 30% more we got less food and mediocre quality. Latil's definitely impressed! *Crab Mango Cake Salad - this was very good. A generous crabcake on top of a chipotle remoulade with a side salad and fresh tomatoes. *Gulf Fish - it was the drum with a very generous amount of lump crab meat on top. Tasty! *Grits & Grillades - made with veal, and a very nice presentation. Looked fabulous and I didn't hear any complaints. The only thing is that there are no signs directing you here once you arrive on the grounds of Houmas House. I would definitely recommend some wayfinding signs so the older guests don't have to walk around in circles like my grandma had to do!

    Grouper with jambalaya grits

    Took my fiancé for Valentine's Day and had a fantastic experience. It was her first time there, so a staff member brought us around the grounds in a golf cart, giving a nice view of the many fountains. We arrived early for drinks at the turtle bar, where we both enjoyed an excellent old fashioned. The only thing missing was the cherry. Regardless, it was one of the better ones I've had. Since it was Valentine's Day, we a walk around the fountains, where a staff member even offered to take a picture for us. We had an 8:30 reservation but were not seated until almost 9. It was no big deal, as we had nowhere else to be. The Valentine's menu was smaller than the normal menu, but still had plenty of excellent options. The meal was $100 a person and included a full five courses. Appetizer - She had the mango crab cake and I ordered the pumpkin, crawfish and corn bisque. The bisque is one of my favorite menu items and did not disappoint. The crab cake was very good as well. Salad - very fresh greens and an amazing house dressing. It was sweet, yet, not over-powering In between the salad and the main course was a cosmopolitan sorbet. It came in a nice cocktail glass (see gallery) dipped in Mardi Gras colors. The waitress then poured orange Gray Goose Vodka into the sorbet, where you then mash it all down with a spoon. A wonderful combination and very refreshing surprise, for first time visitors. Main Course - I ordered the grouper crusted in zapps potato chips, which was served with jambalaya grits. She ordered the seafood crepe with fried soft shell crab. Both dishes were amazing. As a Louisiana native, I loved the incorporation of Zapps potato chips to the grouper. Usually, I'm not a fan of grits but these has bits of andouille mashed up in them which gave it a nice southern flair. I really enjoyed that unique twist. Dessert - We split the bread pudding and cheese cake. By this time, I was so full, that I barely remember the desserts. I know she loves her cheese cake. The part I do remember was the chocolate covered strawberry. It may have been the best I've ever had. If you want a quick meal, this is not the place for you. If you're looking for somewhere to bring your significant other for a romantic evening, then Houmas House is your place.

    I've had this spot on my list for a long time, ever since hearing about it in a Simon Majumdar…read morepodcast (we're talking years ago). This beautiful bar is located in the swanky Hotel Peter and Paul hotel, located in the Marigny neighborhood. It's also attached to an equally stunning restaurant that's perfect for blog or instagram photos. Our bartender offered great conversation and gave good recommendations and descriptions of the various cocktails. I had the Sonnet to my Wife, made with mezcal, St. Germaine, aperol, and lemon. Tart and mildly smoky. I also had the Adding machine, made with tequila, guava, velvet falernum, pomegranate, and lime. A little sweet, a little spicy with a complex flavor profile. I enjoyed both drinks. If not for my husband, I would have stayed for at least a few hours trying the whole menu. So many beautiful cocktails to choose from. They have beer and wine as well, but you'd be doing yourself a disservice. You can get those anywhere. They also have breakfast with eggs, sausage, omelettes, pancakes. Dinner with savory little numbers like smoked bone marrow and braised short ribs with smoked gouda polenta. Salads, grilled quid, pork chops, scallops, various veggies (crispy brussels sprouts, caramelized leeks, charrted broccolini, roasted mushrooms). I would gladly return for some of these delicious selections.

    Elysian was on our list of places to try since we're within walking distance. It took a few tries…read moreto get in through RESY, but overall, I would revisit again and maybe try breakfast. Dinner was good, but probably would have been great had the service been better. (The manager and the server apologized, and if we had more time were willing to comp a meal if we could revisit. Unfortunately, we were leaving the next day, so they did the next best thing: they comped almost half of our bill. WELL DONE!) The restaurant is very inviting with parlors and an atrium. The tables are spaced well apart for noise and a possible romantic dinner/Breakfast. :-) Once seated, the server was working very hard but found us. (They may have been short since the jazz festival was in town) She took our drink orders, which arrived quickly. She explained the menu and let us think about our choice. The drinks were Flaura and Fauna, and Ballad Inventory. Both were unique and tasty. When our server returned, we ordered all of our items. We ordered Chicken under a brick and Braised Short Ribs for entrees. We ordered Roasted Mushrooms, Charred Broccoli, and Dinner Rolls. The Kitchen fell short in timing as rolls arrived at the end of our meal, and a few dishes were lukewarm at best. When refired, they were very good. ( See above) The meal itself and the surroundings were good. At the end of our meal, the manager and the server came over and apologized and told us they would be talking to the team. When the bill arrived, the manager had comped more than half of our total bill *( drinks, bread, mushrooms... $ 168 to $85). We didn't expect this, but it shows how much they care to make things right with customers. Elysian Bar and Restaurant is worth visiting, and you should visit for dinner or breakfast. ,
