One of my favorite bars in New Orleans. The drinks were really well priced and the tots were good, so that's all I can say for the food. The atmosphere was cool and there was live music. The service was incredibly friendly and attentive. I would love to come back here.

Quick service, friendly staff & lots of Jazz music!! Drink menu has something for everyone. I enjoyed the summer muse that is light & refreshing with reasonable pricing!!

Chocolate bread pudding

The only way to get a table is to order something from their menu. The other option is bar seating. The bar was full when we arrived on Saturday 7:30 December 7th. We wanted to sit so we ordered the chocolate bread pudding. They were out of ice cream, which it usually comes with it. It was rich and warm, it would have been better with ice cream, but it was still good. It was worth it just to get a seat. The vibe was enthusiastic and upbeat. I highly Reccomend the Three Muses.

Chicken rice bowl
Hussain L.

Live music at this venue was fantastic!! We heard the Orphaned Storyline band - very entertaining, talented, and fun! Food came out quick and service was good, jazz club vibes. We loved the cauliflower bites with the spicy Korean Gochujang sauce but the chicken rice bowl was underwhelming, I did not like the seasoning of chicken. You're likely better off with the Bulgogi Bowl instead. The muse fries were undercooked and very litely seasoned. They were decent with Louisiana hot sauce and ketchup but nothing special.

Didn't try the food, but Three Muses is an under 21 friendly jazz club with music daily. My 17 year old son and I went twice while in New Orleans, and we enjoyed the music, the laid back ambience, the attentive and friendly service, and the strong mixed drinks (for me). I would be happy to attend even if I were not accompanied by a minor. Go and enjoy!

Was a bit wary of checking this place out because some of the reviews but so glad we went in, was so worth it. Friendly and attentive service, tasty drinks and the good food. All the plates were a good size. The gumbo was nice and spicy, the chicken sandwich was YUMMMMM and the red beans and rice was "f**king incredible" to quote my dinner companion. Heads up, if you're a person that likes a "little spice", this is much more than that so order accordingly. We started with fries along with our drinks and they were equally delicious (you gotta like perfectly fried fries). The trio that was playing was very good with a nice vibe with an amazing sounding Markbass amp.

This small restaurant with a small menu does it right. The ambiance, service, jazz musicians are awesome. We came on a Saturday evening for early dinner at 7pm and were greeted by very friendly staff. Not only were we seated quickly, we were given some amazing advice on the menu items. We ordered the Korean fried chicken sandwich, Ms Moons bulgogi rice bowl, and the muses fries. The muses fries came tossed in a Korean seasoning and served with a side of lemongrass ginger aioli. We also added the Alfredo sauce and the debris, which was pulled pork with gravy. This appetizer was very good, I preferred the Alfredo sauce than the debris but both were tasty. The Korean fried chicken sandwich had a decent sized super crispy chicken patty with amazing seasoning. Paired with the slaw and their Korean sauce, this dish became my favorite. My meal came with either fries or gumbo and I opted for the chicken gumbo. My wife had the bulgogi bowl which goes away from the original bulgogi flavors but still tasty in itself. The topper for this place was the jazz music. Awesome performers and great acoustics in this small room.

Drinks. WOW!
Jennifer D.

We loved this place. We needed a late lunch after a long day of walking around, and wow! We were so satisfied. The drinks were outstanding - fancy cocktail bar worthy but in an approachable setting. The musicians were talented and the service was friendly. If I was a local, this would be in the regular rotation.

We LOVED watching The Slick Skillet Serenaders. The bar is so intimate and cozy with plenty of seating. One drink minimum per set and just a total chill vibe. Exactly what we were looking for on Frenchmen Street. The musicians are wonderful and super talented.

Had dinner here on a weekday night because we saw the live band from the street. The food was a bit disappointing, particularly The bulgogi bowl. The meat was very hard to chew, and it really wasn't authentic. The fries as appetizers were way too salty. Our waitress was patient and nice though. The band was pretty good. They went around to every table and asked for tips after each of their sets, which was a little disrupting. At least they had clean and spacious bathrooms. Overall, the food wasn't great. I'd probably only recommend ordering drinks and listening to the band.

Kenneth L.

Great music with a cozy environment. My only complaint is some of the seats in the back don't have a decent view of the artists. Spent a good amount of time enjoying the live music assortment that they had and slowly consuming fries and some smaller dishes. Highly recommend if you are looking for a quieter vibe

Banh mi
Candace R.

While I'm New Orleans I wanted to have one "band in a restaurant" dining experience and so I made reservations here (deposit required on Tock). We had to wait a few minutes to get seated and quite a few folks were told there was a long wait for a table, so if you have your heart set on dining here I would definitely make a reservation. We were seated at the high tops near the back of the intimate restaurant and there was a clarinet/saxophonist and piano duo entertaining us for the evening. We both started with a cocktail which we both loved, and shared the pork buns which were really good. I decided on the Banh mi sandwich and my bf had the noodle soup. I didn't get to try any of his but I really liked the sandwich. The seasoning on the fries is different but tasty, and they went well with the sandwich and the aioli (which I usually don't like with fries). The service was great and the music was the perfect backdrop to the meal. They do have a small menu and you won't find any traditional New Orleans fare on it, but I enjoyed it nonetheless.

We wandered into the Three Muses while exploring Frenchman St after finishing our tattoos at the Electric Ladyland shop. We were encouraged to go in to Three Muses by my what appeared to be, a local gentleman sitting outside touting about their food offerings. Unfortunately, they were not serving hot food at that time but we did sample the drink menu...it was sparse due to the staff not knowing where to locate all the necessary ingredients for all the cocktails on their menu but I lucked out and they had what was needed for the signature martini I longed for as well as for my husbands go to, Long Island. Both were good! Strong and tasty. Cute establishment, great art on the walls and they have live music in the evenings

Ask the Community - Three Muses

If we want to come for drinks and to listen to the music should we make a reservation?

You can only sit at a table if you're ordering food.

Is there cover at 3 Muses?

This is a restaurant and bar with music venue. So while there is no cover charge for the music, tables are usually by reservation for a 2 hour meal slot and the bar is first come first served. The band is paid by the establishment but there is a tip… 

18 and over?

Although it's a restaurant that serves all ages, you must be 21 to order drinks their bar.

21 and older only?

During the earlier shows, think 5pm ish, there were definitely littles dancing around... come later though, I'm pretty certain it was 21 and over.

This is an easy 5-star review. Lazy me would just cherry pick from the other 5-star reviews but…read more.. Preservation Hall is a must when visiting New Orleans. Picture exceptional musicians playing traditional jazz in your living room or backyard. There are no frills, light shows, just benches and standing room areas which allow you to be transported back in time when jazz was king. From their website: "Operating as a family business, Preservation Hall supported the unique culture of traditional jazz in New Orleans, which developed in the local melting pot of African, Caribbean, and European musical traditions at the turn of the 20th Century. Preservation Hall was a rare space in the South where racially integrated bands and audiences shared music together during the Jim Crow era." I would strongly suggest that you purchase your tickets well in advance as these shows sell out. In the past the Hall was BYOB and there were no rest rooms. They have upped their game and there is a full bar and bathrooms! Each show is only 45 minutes in length for those 45 minutes you are in for a truly magnificent experience.

This is a historic spot. It's small inside- not fancy- it's real. No big lights, no big speakers,…read moreno mixers or autotune. Think- sitting in the living room. Old church style benches. Get your tickets early. The musicians were great- music was great. I loved it.

Had a rough experience here this week with Lynn…read more Very emotionally disregulated bartender that seems to hate her life. David was amazing. Fantastic bartender. Tipped him literally 100% because he deserved it and her 0% because she deserved it. Went back this morning to talk to the young lady working and leave the owner my number and would love to discuss. My mom lives across the street so it's not like I'm just some A hole passing through and I was also a bartender for 5 years myself before becoming a nurse and then a nurse practitioner. I would never treat a patient nor a patron how I was treated by Lynn this week. Great bar, shameful service by Lynn. All the other bartenders I've encountered were amazing but she's a cancer on this place in my limited experience with her on two separate days. Dave, you rock. Will update review once I hear back from owner who I met the other night but didn't discuss because I hadn't had the second experience with Lynn yet. I HATE leaving negative reviews as I'm sure you can tell by my review history but this woman has definitely gotten me out of my character and I apologize.

Unfortunately, the VIP experience was underwhelming, to say the least. No seating, no added perks--just access to a "private" bar that wasn't much different from the general one. So here's a little tip from me to you: skip the VIP at this venue. It's not worth the upgrade--save your money and thank me later.
