This has been the best of restaurants that I have visited during my trip to New Orleans. Food was amazing. We ordered the bbq pork belly for my table of 3. Sooo good! I don't usually order pork as my protein of choice. My colleague, from Texas, with pork being his favorite protein, also stamped enthusiastic approval on this dish! Crispy on the outside and tender inside, great flavor. Ordered gumbo soup for myself and it's a perfect portion and tasted so hearty and delicious. We also ordered all 3 desserts and they were all good, but my table all specifically liked the bread pudding. Cocktails are good also. Time it took for the food to come out was a *little* long but it was definitely worth it. It tastes fresh and made with consideration and pride. The location is smaller and very chill. I wouldn't come here with a group larger than 6 for space and time-to-cook purposes. I'm very surprised I did not see this place pop up on my recommended restaurants while researching sooner. But I'm glad we didn't miss it. read more

The food was bland, mediocre at best. The beef tartar had zero flavor. The okra was too much breading and unevenly topped with spices. The roach running under us didn't help the experience either. read more

Visiting NOLA for a few days and found this place on Google Maps. I'm glad I stopped by on a Tuesday evening at around 5pm. I got seated at the bar right away and got the happy hour menu 4:30pm-6pm as well as the main menu. I had to go with the double cut Cheshire pork chop and got a glass of happy hour Malbec wine. My bartender Jason was helpful with recommendations and letting me know specials of the day, he was very friendly and fun to talk to! Food came and I was amazed at the size of my pork chop, it was massive about the size of my hand and thick cut. First cut into it was flavourful from the caramelized crust and the juicy well cooked centre. The green bean creole glaze that came with it was paired perfectly to create a balanced dish! I was also lucky enough to get to try the deep fried oyster and it was delicious! Highly recommend this spot, take your chance with walk ins as they get busy later in the evening. read more

So ... I am really torn on this review but I call em like I experienced them, so: In my opinion: +* server, +**** dishes, (minus) -** on timing/execution = my *** rating. * +our server was really good - Jimmy was pleasant, funny, good menu descriptions. **** +food was amazing - chef Ricky and team really prepared amazing dishes with plenty of flavor, the right amount of spice/sweet/savory for each dish. +filet med rare was a great cut and cooked perfect, + the pork chop with a slight sweet glaze tasted amazing + each side and app (oysters on pasta mmm) was unique and flavorful. So timing - not to go down a rabbit hole but arrived at 5:40 for 5:45 reservations, first to be seated in a then empty restaurant, ordered apps and dinner at 6, - apps arrived 7:30 and dinner about 8:15. There is something going on for that to happen as others around us were served more promptly. Be forewarned as other reviews noted the same. They removed some of the drinks as an apology but the timing became the talk of the table during and after. This is sad because it should have been all about how great the food was but the timing stole the show. read more

Such a great vibe! Music was a touch too loud in my personal experience but I'm a little too sensitive to sounds. We had dinner with a client and our server was super sweet and accommodating. This is more of a high end restaurant and the Chef is excellent and so creative. We were 3 people for early dinner at 5pm, $370 including service. We had 2 first courses and 3 main plus 3 sides. read more

It had been a while since my last trip to New Orleans, so I spent Super Bowl weekend back in town enjoying some gambling and early Mardi Gras celebrations. My original plan was dinner at La Boca Steakhouse, one of my longtime go-to spots, but a same-day call about kitchen equipment issues forced them to cancel reservations for the evening. With plans suddenly open, we pivoted and decided to try Restaurant Rebirth -- a fitting name considering the change of plans and my familiarity with the space from its previous restaurant days. The menu is fairly focused, leaning toward farm-to-table Cajun-Creole dishes. Dinner started with cornbread served with honey, and honestly, it was incredible. I could have happily made a meal out of that alone (regret not asking for seconds). I began with a blueberry martini that was a little too sweet for my taste, then switched to an Abita Amber, which paired much better with the food. For appetizers we ordered the BBQ pork belly, shrimp and eggplant, and the oyster angel hair pasta -- all very good, with the pork belly being the standout. Entrées included a beautifully presented whole blackened redfish that tasted as good as it looked, a 20-oz boneless ribeye cooked to a perfect medium rare with crawfish tasso maque choux, and a double-cut pork chop. The steak had great flavor but was surprisingly a bit tough, the only real disappointment of the night. The pork chop, however, completely stole the show -- perfectly cooked, tender, and one of the best I've had. Service was attentive without being overbearing, and the space remains dark, warm, and inviting -- a vibe I've always liked in this location. Overall: a very enjoyable meal and a great backup plan when our original reservation fell through. I'll definitely return, especially if La Boca isn't available on my next trip to New Orleans. read more

If you like your meat moist , tender, and full of flavor, you must try the pork belly! The greens it rests on is delish and even their gumbo, which is served in a cute little cast iron cauldron is rich and flavorful in the best way possible. Very intimate and cozy place with really nice staff! Even the manager included himself in conversation with us and helped serve the food. Don't miss out on this gem! read more

We really liked the food. One scallop was undercooked. Definitely more "small plate" but the appetizers could be considered meals. Gumbo and oysters were delicious. The host was a bit off-putting and a tad much. The wine selection was spectacular. Cute place with charm. A little odd for two workers to be sitting at the bar on their computers but to each their own. read more

Amazing food, atmosphere & servers. Jason the bartender was awesome. Got a chance to interact with the owner. Had a wonderful time. You will not be disappointed. Give this restaurant a try!! read more

Service was outstanding, and the setting was relaxed and quaint. There was a good mix of business clients and date night clientele. The food was above average in taste, but not quite 5 star, especially at the price point. We tried several appetizers and had 2 different entrees. Both the presentation and quality were mixed, with half being very good and the other half missing the mark. I enjoyed it and would likely return, but there are better options I would go to first. read more

I have a new favorite restaurant. This place is phenomenal. We went last night to celebrate my husband's birthday and it was not disappointing. We started with the fried oysters appetizer and the pork belly appetizer and both were amazing. The pork belly appetizer could have been a little spicier, but it was delicious. We then shared a serving of the gumbo. We split a 22 oz. ribeye for the entree. It was one of the most delicious steaks i have eaten in my life. We will definitely go back and recommend this to our friends. read more

Amazing! One of the best restaurants I've been to in my 4 trips to New Orleans. Elk and pork belly are a must. The ribeye was also great. Drinks may take a while but that is because they are being expertly crafted. I tried the uptown and downtown old fashioned. Both so good. Can't recommend this place enough. Thanks to the tip from my Uber driver. Only 12 tables. Ambiance is nice. read more

Possibly the BEST restaurant that I've eaten at in New Orleans! We made reservations for the bar (nothing else was available) for our first night in town and ended up going back on our last night, as well as recommending it to others. The place is small, so if you plan to go, make a reservation. We had a wonderful meal both at the bar and at the table, and the service was great at both. They are not a steakhouse, but they do a mean steak and it comes sizzling on a hot iron plate. The pork belly is a must get as well as the gumbo which comes piping hot. The fried oysters were also spectacular and I usually don't like cooked oysters. There was some menu items I liked better than others, but everything was so tasty. Highly recommend and this will be the first place I stop on my next trip to New Orleans. read more

My husband said it was the best Pork Belly he ever had. We went for my husband's birthday and our anniversary. We unfortunately wasn't that hungry and it was later than we normally have dinner but since it was a special occasion we wanted to try an upscale restaurant that wasn't in the French Quarter. We opted for only appetizers. We had a very small cast iron little bowl of gumbo, it was full of flavor and very good! I would definitely have a full bowl to myself if we should ever go to NOLA again. We had the pork belly and my husband loved it he said it was the BEST. We had the greens that were good but a little too sweet for my taste. They gave my husband bread pudding for his birthday but he isn't a fan of bread pudding so he didn't like it but I did. The service was slower than I thought it should be for deserts, but our waiter was very attentive so we didn't mind it much. Unfortunately I am bad with names, but one of the owners also was very attentive. I definitely recommend the restaurant if you want good food, an upscale experience away from the French Quarter. The Ambiance was romantic it's a small restaurant. It was very nice that when we walked in they said our names like they were waiting for us. I enjoyed the conversation with one of the owners finding out he previously worked with Emeril Lagasse who I have been a fan of for years. read more

Easily my favorite meal in New Orleans. After several days of very heavily fried foods and way too many douche bars in the French Quarter, Rebirth was such a welcome experience. The pork belly was a standout. Cooked and seasoned perfectly. It would be a must order again. I was still thinking about it the next day. The country gumbo was my third third time ordering it in different restaurants in NOLA and was by far the best of the three. Loved the fish of the day with roasted vegetables and gnocchi, but I tried steak there and wish I'd have ordered it instead. It's quiet, dimly lit, and has excellent service. Solid choice for dinner in New Orleans read more

Quaint ambiance and so thrilled I stumbled upon REBIRTH out the back door of the Marriott Warehouse district. Blueberry Brie salad was light and refreshing.... Filet cooked to perfection, gnocchi mushroom just perfect!! Waiting on the crème brûlée! Great service and cocktails too! There's only 12 tables so plan accordingly for your group. Especially when conventions are in town. read more

My wife and I had dinner here last night. Birthday dinner #1 for my wife. It's our first time in New Orleans. The restaurant is located a bit in the "middle of nowhere." Not much around it. The restaurant itself is very small bit has a charming feel. The service was very good. Cornbread - 5/5: I'm not a huge cornbread fan (normally tends to be dry), bit thus was delicious. One of the best cornbread ever. Fried Oyster - 4/5: great flavor, just a bit salty. Gumbo - 5/5: Wow! The best gumbo I've ever had. Ribeye - 5/5: even though they're not a "steakhouse," this was fantastic. Perfectly cooked in an iron skillet and comes slathered in melted butter. One of the most tender ribeyes I've ever had. We ordered the extra mushroom/onion topping. While I thought the topping eaten separately was delicious, the onions were too sweet to eat together with the steak. Crawfish & Tasso Maque Choux - 4/5: think of this as a creamed corn, cajun style. While the dish was good, I wouldn't order this again if one orders the gumbo as a starter as shares a bit of the same flavor profile. One word of advice. The menu is pretty limited so would recommend going to the website and looking at the menu beforehand to make sure there is something that would appease everyone in your party. Overall, a great meal. read more

The ambience was great for being in New Orleans. Went during recent Quarter Fest. First time. The food was great and drinks wonderful.

I had the absolute pleasure of going back to Rebirth and I honestly didn't think it could live up to my memory of how amazing it was. But it did. The pork belly appetizer is hands down one of the best dishes I've ever had. I tried the angel hair pasta with oysters which was also great. And the white chocolate bread pudding was, again, outstanding and that's coming from someone who doesn't usually even like bread pudding. Riley is the manager and his advice is spot on so definitely talk to him. And the cocktails ars also fantastic. The smoke show was fun and really good. This place is a gem! read more

One of my favorite meals in New Orleans for sure. Pork belly appetizer was very good. Starter corn bread was great. Favorite thing I ate was the pork chop, which was one of the best pork chops I've eaten in my life. Just so incredibly flavorful and juicy! And enough for 2 people (the chef even split it for us). Accompanying green beans were also really good if a bit salty. Scallops were really well done and very tender. Gumbo was good but didn't really stand out. FYI it's a smallish restaurant so you definitely need a reservation. read more

Loved our visit. Very intimate dining experience with great service and delicious food. The gumbo is the best that I've had, served in a small pot - feels like it was crafted specifically for me. Highly recommend the chicken as well. read more

We started with the gumbo, which had good depth of flavor but could have used a bit more seasoning or spice--solid 7/10. The pork chop was well-prepared, juicy, and flavorful, earning it a respectable 8/10. The main disappointment was the filet mignon. While I ordered it cooked to my preferred doneness, it arrived overcooked. The bigger issue, however, was that it was served on a hot skillet, which continued to cook the steak beyond the resting point. This left the meat drier than it should have been, taking away from the tenderness and juiciness that a filet mignon should have. A great cut of meat deserves better treatment, and serving it on a sizzling plate is a misstep in execution. read more

Food was amazing. Loved the chill vibe. The bartender, Jason, was amazing and very nice. Will definitely be back.

Came here while i was visiting the city and it was a good experience The food here was solid. I had the filet mignon and it was about as good as you'd expect- nothing exceptional but it definitely hit the spot. Their appetizers were amazing, the staff were extremely kind and the overall atmosphere was great. Their cornbread was surprisingly good too which was unexpected. I enjoyed the meal here and though I probably won't be in the area again anytime soon, it was time/money well spent read more
