Almog K.

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.

Pork Chop
Mark D.

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.

Great smaller restaurant to get a true feel of New Orleans cuisine. Great service, unique warehouse district decor and ambiance, and great drinks! Check out their unique menu and make a reservation as the word is getting around and they are starting to get busy!

The BEST gumbo ever. And the Best prom belly ever.

Really fun New Orleans cushion food! Everything was hornet and delicious beyond belief. Fun and friendly staff

Pork belly
Jennifer S.

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!

Love this cozy restaurant. They have best corn bread and bread pudding I've ever tasted.

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.

Blackened Scallops

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.

Whats the dress attire?

Ranged from casual business attire to fancyish nice out.

No prices on their website. Trying to have a little idea of a budget for a trip. Anyone help me out?

With appetizer entree and say 2 drinks you could get a way with $60-$75 per person including tip. Also I had the pork chop its enormous and could probably be share with 2 hungry people. If my memory serves me right that was $28.

We had Boris as our server, and he stood out from the very beginning. He was not only pleasant and attentive, but also extremely knowledgeable and made excellent recommendations. What really impressed us was that he took our very specific order without a pen or paper--he memorized everything perfectly! The food came out quickly, and the entire staff worked together seamlessly. It was truly a great dining experience from start to finish. And the desserts were to die for! I highly recommend trying the gumbo, shrimp platter, bread pudding, and chocolate mousse. Everything was delicious. The only downside is the parking. Street parking is available, as well as paid parking options, but it can be a little challenging. Overall, a wonderful experience with great food, excellent service, and a fantastic team. Highly recommended!

Fried green tomatoes had a very nice thickness to the cut a good breading that was not too thick and not to thin- stayed well adhered to the tomato. They arrived piping hot, but ever so delicious. The beignets were light and fluffy also piping hot and fresh made to order. I am not a beignet connoisseur by any means however I prefer them light and fluffy versus dense and heavy. These were very good and I certainly got back to get more. The atmosphere is simple, casual. We were able to be seated immediately. This was less busy than some of the other restaurants, but certainly good. Service was exactly what I needed-not over the top and not too little.

We came in Saturday night without a reservation and only had to wait a few minutes. Our waitress was amazing from the second we sat down. I really wish I remembered her name because she was super attentive, funny, patient, and honestly made the whole experience even better. My boyfriend and I started with the Creole oysters and OMG... probably some of the best oysters I've ever had. They were incredibly flavorful, and dipping the bread into all that sauce afterward was SO good. My mother-in-law had the fried calamari, which came with remoulade, and she really enjoyed it. For my entrée, I had the jambalaya with chicken and andouille sausage. It was definitely spicy, but really, really good. My boyfriend and mother-in-law both had the grilled red snapper topped with their creamy crawfish sauce, and they loved it. My father-in-law had one of the oyster specials with shrimp and crawfish, which was also excellent. We finished with dessert... boyfriend and I had a chocolate mousse/cake dessert and my in-laws had the bread pudding. Everything was delicious. The atmosphere was casual and fun, they had the football games playing on the TVs, and our waitress was fantastic the entire night. Just an overall great experience. If you love seafood and oysters, definitely give this place a try. I would 100% come back!

It's either this place or another popular joint across the street. Hot N Cajun won me over seeing their photos on Yelp/Google reviews .

Don't like the combo pack definitely can build your own plate.

That's on us, but respect the choice of not serving inferior crawfish. They have multiple sauces and spice levels to tailor to your taste. We always prefer Vietnamese influenced seafood boils with extra sauce and fresh garlic. The shrimp was perfectly cooked, both head on and headless. The lobster, snow crab, and blue crabs were all fresh also. The wings were dry rubbed and I would avoid that. The wait can be long. Restaurant was clean.

Everything we ordered was delicious, and honestly, the food is the main reason I would consider giving Bon Ton another try. I also want to give credit to the host who greeted us. She was extremely friendly, professional, and genuinely tried her best to accommodate my party. The bad: The issue was management. I had a party of 13, and I understood that the restaurant could only seat 10 people at one table. I was told the other 3 guests would be seated at a separate table, and I was completely okay with that arrangement. However, Travis, the front manager, canceled the reservation for my 3 additional guests, so they were never seated. The host was trying her best to help us, but Travis was not very accommodating and made the situation much more difficult than it needed to be. I also asked to speak with a manager because I wanted to understand what happened with the table for my 3 guests. Tre was told that I wanted to speak with him, but he didn't come over when he finished with the table behind me. Instead, he went into the kitchen, came back out, and spoke with my friend instead of me. When he eventually spoke with me, I asked if he was the manager, and he told me no. He also gave me a different name. What makes this even more disappointing is that I wasn't approaching him to complain. I simply wanted to ask about the seating situation and find a solution for my guests. The interaction with management was unnecessary and took away from what should have been a special birthday dinner. I will say again that the food was good enough that I am willing to give Bon Ton another try. Hopefully, next time the service and management experience will match the quality of the food. Shoutout to the host for being kind and trying her best--you could tell she genuinely cared about helping us.

There were a few pleasant surprises that I experienced. First, I don't know why, but I expected a hole-in-the-wall establishment. But it was a beautifully updated restaurant with a nice square bar in the center. It's light and bright with a lot of space. I was greeted warmly and sat quickly at the bar. Note, that reservations are required to sit at a table. Walk-up guests must sit at the bar. I was alone so I normally sit at the bar anyway. I was pleasantly welcomed by Nicole who immediately asked if I wanted water or any other drink to start. I got sweet tea since it's my favorite nonalcoholic drink. I ordered the 1/4 chicken dark meat with a side of macaroni & cheese and a piece of cornbread. 2nd surprise. The chicken is spicy, which I forgot from all the shows I've watched about the chicken here. It's just enough to give it a little heat and added flavor. The batter is light and crispy with a hint of buttermilk. The meat is super juicy and delicious. 3rd surprise. I didn't know I would love the Mac and cheese so much. It was more savory than cheesy, which made it stand out above others I've had. The cornbread muffin was a great tie-in with its slightly sweet honey flavor. Savory and sweet. Tender and crunchy. It covered all of the requirements for a perfectly balanced meal. The service was excellent with that perfect Southern touch of sweetness and hospitality. I highly recommend visiting when in New Orleans.

We ordered the fried chicken biscuits, and two major things were wrong. One biscuit was half cooked and inedible, and the other had an actual chicken wing inside...my fiance bit right into bones! The only redeeming part was the hot honey. We also tried the 1/4 fried chicken (white meat only, no mixing), which was overcooked, dry, and borderline burnt. The mac and cheese was just as dry and clearly sitting under a warmer for a while and the drinks were totally forgettable. The service was just as bad. Our bartender, which was also our server, didn't check on us a single time. When taking our order, she rudely told my fiance to speak up, yet miraculously repeated the whole order back without us having to say it again. She had no problem being friendly to the other tables around us, though. Management also needs to check bar hygiene: I watched her make drinks back to back while doing other tasks without washing her hands once, and she even handed me a damp napkin that smelled like musty mildew. All hype, zero substance.
