    Rick's Grille was my first stop for food in New Orleans and I absolutely had to go back before leaving. My experience was outstanding. The service was top notch, they were very welcoming and friendly and the food was absolutely DELICIOUS! I ordered the Philly Mushroom Melt on both visits and it was made right in front of me and seasoned perfectly. I will definitely return on my next trip. Best Philly I've ever had!

    Who would ever think to walk inside an office building to the back left corner of the second floor to eat at Rick's Grill when in a city like New Orleans? Thankfully some other yelpers did and steared me this way! Be prepared to yell out your order even when you're six or seven people back in the line. The surf and turf is a Philly cheese steak that also includes some Cajun grilled shrimp. with cheese a little bit of mayo on a warm and slightly toasted miniature loaf of bread. the sandwich is garnished with a sprinkling of lettuce and tomatoes so you don't feel so guilty, but with the amount of steak you hardly notice it, which for me is just perfect. I was torn between the fries and onion rings but no one seems to order of the onion rings, so I tried the fries. They were perfectly cooked, despite being rather basic fries, slightly crispy on the outside warm and soft on the inside. I'm sitting here pretty stuff in this office food court, all for about 12 bucks. My only recommendation would be to spice up the fries a little.

My wife had heard about the Pimm's Cup so we ordered a sample flight of their 3 flavors (Original, Strawberry, & Englishman's). All 3 were excellent. My personal fav was the Englishman's but my wife preferred the Original. We started off with the Crawfish Flatbread as an appetizer. The topping was really tasty but the bread was a bit undercooked. I ordered a 1/2 Italian Muffuletta and my wife had a red beans and rice. I will say that unless you are starving and have a huge appetite, I don't know how someone could eat a whole Muffuletta. They are huge. My 1/2 was more than the 2 of us could put away. Looking at other plates as they were brought out assured me that you shouldn't leave this place hungry. Everything looked huge and very yummy.

Though pop-up showers were still lingering, my husband and I decided to take a gamble on courtyard dining--and I am so glad we did! Sheltered under the green umbrellas surrounded by historic brick walls, lush greenery, and rain-kissed citrus trees, the atmosphere was incredibly romantic and peaceful. The courtyard's intimate layout even brought a bit of extra magic to our evening. We sat near another wonderful couple (and their adorable daughter) and became fast friends, sharing laughs and conversation throughout the night. What truly anchored the experience, though, was the incredible service. The staff was remarkably personable, helpful, and welcoming. The dinner itself was excellent from start to finish, showcasing immense culinary skill across every dish. We started with the delicious brussels sprouts and a uniquely seasoned spring/summer gumbo that was unlike any version we've had before (oh, what I would give for the recipe). As for the entrées, the shrimp and grits were phenomenal, and the blackened catfish sandwich with a fresh salad was executed flawlessly...and the bread pudding was fantastic, too! It is rare to find an experience where top-tier hospitality, a breathtaking environment, and great food come together so (seemingly) effortlessly. Café Amélie is an absolute must-visit! We will be back.

There's also a long rope hanging on a tree outside adjacent to where some of the parking is. Not sure if St Claire owns that land but I'd probably try to get it removed... The architecture and decor on the inside only reinforce the plantation theme. 2 - Food & Drink: This is the crux of any experience and I just felt that nothing truly delivered. The beets were good but I've had so much better. The smoke flavor wasn't really as deep as I'd like. The gumbo lacks a certain savoriness to make me want to revisit it, and the meat inside just didn't quite taste as rich as I'd like. Usually that's the best part. We got the rabbit ragu as well which was good but again nothing to write home about. The strawberry hand pies were again good but nothing special. 3. Special Occasion: This may just be a pet peeve of mine but if someone makes the effort to tell you it's a special occasion maybe make the effort to make it special by offering a free dessert, drink or something? I don't know. 3. Service: not bad All in all. I wouldn't come back. The drive honestly kinda sucks. The way it's billed you'd expect something a bit more elevated in terms of experience. I'm frankly disappointed because I had been trying to make it to this restaurant for quite some time. I've been to mosquito supper club which I thought was a much superior experience.

On the one hand, it was maybe the least interesting bar in New Orleans. On the other, it was a totally solid conference bar. I wandered in throughout the day and wound up there most nights, for hours of socializing with wonderful friends and colleagues. The space was pretty generic, par for the course for a giant Marriott. If you've ever been in a chain hotel lobby, you can probably close your eyes and conjure the carpets. There was lots of seating, though, and it was a comfortable, easy place to hang out. A convenient meeting point even when I did end up leaving the hotel. The bartenders were decent, though it was hard to get their attention when the place was busy. I had a hell of a time paying for my very wise and virtuous afternoon Diet Pepsi. That was the only non-alcoholic beverage I got here. The rest of the conference, I drank draft Abita and bourbon, and several solid Sazeracs, with rye, Herbsaint, Peychaud's bitters, and simple syrup. If you're a tourist in New Orleans, please don't drink at 55 Fahrenheit. Save your time and health for the myriad bars that await you outside the Marriott. But if you're there for a conference with a lot of fun people, grab a Sazerac and sit down.

Rich, layered, and well-balanced with fresh elements that worked together on the plate. For entrées, we had a variety of cuts, including the Australian Wagyu, ribeye, butcher's cut, and lamb chops. The Wagyu stood out immediately. High quality, great sear, and finished tableside, which added to the overall experience without taking away from the food itself. Each steak was cooked precisely to temperature and full of flavor. The lamb chops paired with carrots and brussels were well executed and balanced. The sides complemented the meal well and did not feel like afterthoughts. You can also see their in-house dry aging setup, which speaks to the level of detail they put into their steak program. It shows in the final product. The drinks were solid across the board. The Old Fashioned and bourbon selections paired well with the meal and matched the food's quality.

Overall, the experience was average and did not fully meet those expectations. The charcuterie and cheese board, priced at $68, was underwhelming in both portion size and value. It included only six thin slices of cured meat and a small selection of cheeses. Unfortunately, one of the cheeses had an unpleasant flavor that made it inedible for our table. The bread service was a highlight, offering a nice variety of breads and accompaniments. The ribeye was cooked well and enjoyable, but it did not stand out from what I've experienced at other upscale steakhouses. The five-cheese couscous was the biggest disappointment, as it lacked the rich, flavorful profile its description suggested. While the service and presentation were appreciated, the overall dining experience did not justify the high expectations or the price point.
