    Cold dessert I believe it was gelato
    Sofia P.

    I came here in Feb for the 1st time and the desserts were good. I got the macarons, a whole box of them so I can try most of the flavors. The service was quick. You order and then you can sit down inside if there are spaces available. The ambiance was super adorable. There were so many more desserts I wanted to try maybe next time!

    Hey SUCRÉ

    Fancy food...everything top notch! The service was fast. We loved the ambiance. We went here after Theo's Neighborhood Pizza (Magazine St.) to revive ourselves with the kids. Check out the photos...SUPER FANCY!

    NOLA can be hot and Sucre offers a cool gelato solution. Their gelato was creamy and Sucre allows you to add flavors in a standard scoop. There are some inside tables to sit down and enjoy the gelato before it melts. Service was efficient. I thought the coconut gelato was delicious especially when paired with the deep chocolate.

    The staff immediately greeted me--they were super helpful and friendly as a I pondered my decision. Their Instagram did feature a ton of photos of products and drinks they did not have in store. So I would say be aware of that and that it has multiple locations. I settled on an espresso, which was decent, and a little cake. I honestly can't remember the cake flavor - I think it was possible almond, but I didn't get much nutty flavor at all. The cake just tasted sugary. I got a hint of the pistachio halfway through. Overall, I didn't find the cake texture or flavor particularly delicate, interesting or memorable. Everything did look cute, though.

    I was needing dessert after dinner and saw sucre was open so my husband and I stopped for macarons and I had a cupcake. My husband also got a latte, I forgot to photograph the latte. The macarons were fresh, not dried out. I was hoping for more flavors but the blackberry citrus was good. The strawberry was more vanilla tasting imo. The strawberry cupcake was a vanilla cupcake with strawberry buttercream. I love buttercream frosting on a vanilla cupcake. The place was cute. Open late till 11pm. Staff were friendly and welcoming.

    Cold brew with shot of oat milk
    Karen L.

    Very nice service and the woman working the counter was extra nice to offer up oat milk with my cold brew after not being able to get the butterfly tea that I was initially eyeing. There is a private restroom for customers which seems to be popular given the nearby Preservation Hall doesn't have any and is very close to the shop. Also there isn't as much seating as expected from the Google photos, maybe because the shop shrinked up but looks very different from the pics.

    Red Velvet cupcake (the bite, so moist)
    Jeannie T.

    Wow, two Sucre locations in the French Quarter and open until midnight! This is the place to be. It was our second day in New Orleans and we happened on this place as we were heading back to our hotel. Located in the heart of the French Quarter, it was a wonderful, late night surprise find. Especially since it's so hot and humid in NOLA -- this was a very welcomed addition to the current food scene. Totally enjoyed everything we ate. And the staff is very warm and friendly.

    King cake
    Amber L.

    It's a bit hard to rate Sucre's king cake since it's admittedly the first one we've ever had, but damn is it delicious. The place itself has a small shop charm but offers lots of different sweets from macaroons, tarts, and gelato. We settled on the king cake as visiting Texans who have never tried it before. The cake itself was moist and sweet with the icing and cinnamon giving it a distinct flavor. It almost tastes like a cinnamon roll on steroids, in a good way. The baker manning the shop was very friendly and also shared how to insert the baby into the cake, which was very helpful as newcomers to the tradition. This place is delicious and we absolutely recommend it to locals and others like us who are looking to experience this Mardi Gras tradition for the first time.

    Cupcakes.

    When Sucre first came on the scene it was all the rage. Despite all my visits to NOLA I never managed to make it in. Then there was some controversy, and the placed closed for a few years. It recently re-opened under new ownership, and there are a few locations around town. While wandering through the Quarter, I noticed this shop about 2 blocks from my house, which is dangerous. Now, I had no excuse to not check it out. This café is small. The one in the Garden District is bigger and has a bar, but you can get coffee beverages and gelato here too. The rows of delectable desserts were pretty and tempting - making it difficult to choose. The lady behind the counter was friendly and patient. I resisted the urge to order one of each and got the Confetti Cupcake. It did not disappoint. I could tell the buttercream frosting was made with real butter because it had a silky-smooth texture and melted in your mouth. It was light on the sweetness level. The cupcake was moist and tender. It was heavenly. I know I will be stopping in on a regular basis when I'm in town.

    I just love the vibe here! It's very inviting with the color scheme and wide variety of French baked goods, tempting every bit of willpower you thought you had. I came in for 1 pistachio macron and added a cortado. Both were fresh and delicious! On the way out I asked to sample the lemon sorbet, which I will order the next time I'm in town.

    Nancy C.

    My very first Gelato certainly was great! This shop is very clean, classy, and full of lots of goodies to satisfy a sweet tooth or a coffee craving. Loved my Gelato and would come here again. Highly recommend!

    Macarons
    Don B.

    The staff was very friendly and let us sample several flavors before we decided. They had a banana gelato and I have never seen that flavor anywhere else and it was delicious. They have a cute seating area and a coffee bar so you can enjoy your sweets with friends.

    Cheese cake
    Omar A.

    Service was okay. The person at counter said she does not like anything when I asked for recommendation. I ordered the cheesecake, and I noticed that I was served something was damaged. There was a crack. To think about it, she did not deserve my 20 percent tip. I was here the year before, and had the Pink Lady. It was okay. The cheesecake with white chocolate was better. This place is across the street from the Monteleone Hotel. The cheesecake, bottled water, a mint chocolate chip gelato, and a macaroon was $29 (tip not included). It is not a full service, but they still ask for tip when paying over the counter. I am only giving them 3 stars because their pastry is pretty good. They can do without the attitude.

I like duck but not to the point that it's something that I order frequently. This duck dish had a layer of skin and fat that was crisp and so tasty. The duck meat almost was like biting into steak instead of poultry. Delicious!!!! Highly recommend. All dishes were the perfect portion. And the snickers dessert was amazing, especially with the balance of sea salt, caramel, toasty nougat, and the vanilla ice cream. The service was fantastic and everyone was so attentive and wonderful. The restaurant itself gave the old world vibe and it transported you back to the upscale dining experience of what I imagine Nola was during cobblestone streets where everyone rode their horse and carriage and dressed up real nice for dinner. I don't normally give 5 stars on the first dine but Brennan's deserves it! Will definitely come back next time I am in New Orleans.

We had caviar topped deviled eggs, caviar serving, and a wheel of deliciously melted cheese. Everything was gorgeously presented and Instagram worthy. The deviled eggs were incredible. My sister said they were one of the best things she's eaten and she's not a fan of deviled eggs. The caviar was great (of course). The cheese was also excellent and included dates that were remarkably good. The ambiance is very cute. Simple and clean aesthetics that are refined but lightly adorned. This is my 7th time visiting NOLA, and Effervescence is now one of my favorite places in NOLA.

Let me start by saying Chef EJ's menu is absolutely out of this world. The chef's tasting menu combines flavors, textures, and techniques so well that at some point you start questioning every meal you've ever eaten before. Every course somehow makes you think, "I didn't know food could do that." The wine tasting paired beautifully with the menu, and Chef EJ and the entire staff turned what could have simply been a really expensive dinner into a legitimate experience. The attention to detail, pacing, presentation, service, and creativity are what you're actually paying for, even a tour of the kitchen! And before anyone complains about the price: this is Emeril's. A legendary restaurant with Michelin stars, not once, but twice. You're not walking into a neighborhood diner expecting a $20 steak and unlimited breadsticks. You're paying for world-class food, hospitality, creativity, and an experience you're going to remember. Honestly, I feel bad seeing this place sitting around a 4.0 because some of the negative reviews basically boil down to, "It was expensive." Yes. it is but Ferrari's are not cheap for a reason. Pictures can not paint the picture of this experience, which is why I took zero pictures of the food. Some experiences are better enjoyed than photographed. Chef EJ and the entire team absolutely delivered.

Thankfully, the birthday gods smiled upon me, and I managed to snag a reservation for the very last night of our trip. From the moment we arrived, the experience felt special. We were greeted, seated, and then escorted into the kitchen where the staff delivered what was clearly a very well-rehearsed welcome. I know they've done it countless times, but the giddy girl inside me felt like a celebrity for a brief moment, so thank you to Emeril's team for that little feel-good memory. We were then escorted back to our table and the fun truly began. What followed was course after course of pure gastronomic delight. It's been a few months now, but I can still remember my standout dishes: the Smoked Salmon Cheesecake and the Oyster Stew with Herbsaint Cream. Those two alone have lived rent-free in my head ever since.We skipped the wine pairing because we had a 4:00 AM flight to catch the next morning, but I would absolutely recommend considering it. The selections sounded fascinating. We did indulge in a few cocktails, though, and every one of them was beautifully crafted. The service was exactly what you'd expect from a two-Michelin-star restaurant: polished, professional, and flawlessly executed. That said, I couldn't help but notice a difference in how we were treated as the only people of color in the dining room. It's one of those things that's difficult to quantify but easy to feel when it's happening. Fortunately, we were there to celebrate and enjoy the food, and we didn't let it overshadow what was otherwise a wonderful evening. One particularly thoughtful touch came at the end of the meal when we were given two bags of goodies to take home, including chicory coffee and sweets. It was such a lovely gesture and a perfect way to end the experience.One thing prospective diners should know: pricing is not clearly listed on the website or booking platforms. If you're planning a visit, be prepared for a serious splurge. Expect to spend well into the $$$$ range for two people.
