    I attended the wine dinner during restaurant week. It was my first time at Vyoone's, and I was excited to try something new. It was a 5 course dinner with some traditional French dishes. The food was pretty good, but maybe a little bread heavy. The duck was my favorite. There was live music, but it was overly loud. It was difficult to hold conversation. The servers were great, and I can tell the owner really cares about her patrons. She knew a lot of people in the room.

    Dinner for my teams close out meeting was perfectly complimented by Vyoones staff and service. The food was amazing. I wish I would have take pictures of others food and appetizers but just know their menu was impressive. We shared appetizers of French onion soup, escargot and bone marrow, Brussels sprouts, and crawfish beignets. My dinner was this seared redfish over homemade pasta and sauce with the same filling/dressing from the crawfish beignets. We were seated upstairs and there was another very large 15+ party so service was very "French" and slow. Who h bothered some of my team members but wasn't a big deal to me. So I guess park where it's free so that you can enjoy yourself and not have to worry about feeding the meter or renewing your time. We met the owner and her son they it felt like a nice French and creole inspired dinner at your aunties house. I will definitely return.

    Pork. Chop entree

    New Orleans is home to the BEST food in the United States! This is of course - my personal opinion! With that being said, I think that Vyoone's might just be my new favorite restaurant in the city! I was searching on YouTube for the best black owned restaurants to dine at. This spot was noted on several lists! I immediately went online and made a reservation. My reservation was for 2 on a Sunday at 7:30pm. We arrived around 7:10pm and we were greeted and seated by the owner. Our wait staff approached our table within minutes of us sitting down. He had a great personality and was engaging. After talking with several wait staff about what they enjoyed on the menu we opted to start with the French onion soup, crab cakes and Escargot. The French onion soup is the best French onion soup I have ever tasted. The cheese was rich, the broth was flavorful and the onions cooked to perfection! If you only order one item this is the item to try! The crab cakes would be my second favorite of the starters. I will say that they look nothing like the crab cake dish featured on the menu on the website. The escargot was a little salty. It was good. I will admit that I had the most amazing escargot at a restaurant in NY that I now compare all escargot to! Unfortunately this one has nothing on that dish. For the entrees: I opted for the Dick dish. Website description is as follows: "Confit Duck quarter served with mushroom bread pudding and asparagus topped with fresh oranges and ginger sauce | Willakenzie Pinot Noir." The bread pudding was different but tasty! The asparagus were a little over cooked for me. However, I understand that people have different preferences. I like for my asparagus to still have a little crunch. The duck has great flavor! My friend ordered the pork chop dish. Website description is as follows: "12 oz bone pork chop, corn bread stuffed with local andouille sausage grilled to perfection served with orzo pasta, ground beef, and fresh herbs and veggies, finished with pepper jelly | Willakenzie Pinot Noir." My friend enjoyed the dish. I tried the orzo pasta and would order it as a side item if it were an option! Concerning the ambience, this place is stunning! It really makes you feel like you have left the city and been transported to a cafe in Paris! I could spend hours just soaking in the ambiance. One additional thing to note : when your entree is served you get the chance to pick your own knife from a collection . I think this is a great way to add something extra special to the dining experience! Overall, this spot is aWINNER! It checks all the box's: great food, service, ambiance - and the prices are not too bad!! If you get an opportunity to check this spot out, I don't think you will be disappointed!

    Highly recommend if you are looking for authentic creole food in an upscale setting. Reservations recommended. Service was great; the manager even checked on us part way through the meal. The salad is large enough to share. Lamp chops were tender served on mashed potatoes - a vegetable with it would have been nice. The duck was well cooked and not overwhelmed by "orange". Will go back the next time I'm in NOLA.

    Vyoone's is a great spot for dinner with friends or special occasions. It's a charming restaurant which catches your attention as you walk through the lights into the beautiful courtyard. The main dining room is quaint and charming as well. Service here is consistently excellent. Now to the food, lol! I had the Poisson Et Pates which was phenomenal, and quite a generous portion. The redfish with lemon beurre blanc sauce was cooked perfectly and the crawfish stuffing was the perfect accompaniment. My friend had the Coteletes D'argneau Grillees and said their lamp chops were perfectly cooked and seasoned. However, they were dismayed that the menu stated it would come with vegetables in addition to mashed potatoes and it was missing the vegetables. Overall, I'd visit Vyoone's again, as it did not disappoint.

    Ok let me say this.... this place is amazing. From the cosy at home feel with the owner chatting it up and serving you like you a cousin from out of town visiting for the first time, to the impeccable food that provided a serious party of flavor in my mouth, to the cutest pass through a lit up alley with draped lights that lead you into wonderland of enchantment. I'm not exaggerating at all. I was not expecting the opening on the other side of the alley of lights. The whole environment was inviting and comforting all at once. The food, let's get into that. I'm currently on lent and fasting off meat and alcohol so we tried the escargot and as I type this I'm wondering if I should have eaten that. It does slug on the earth! I may need to repent for that slip up. They were served on a bone and the chef carved the marrow out and created a delectable sauce. The scallops were baked in something amazing, I'm pretty sure I could look back at the menu and tell you in what it was baked but I'll leave that to you. What I will say is that when, not if k go back I will order two orders of the scallop appetizers. My entree was redfish on a bed of pasta with spinach and tomatoes. The whole time my taste buds were screaming this should be blackened because I like blackened, so I asked the owner and she said that some of her regulars get it blackened, so the next time I go I'm getting it blackened because I'm going to be a regular. That's not all since I'm not drinking alcohol we had mocktails. I had a peach cinnamon gig and the second time around I asked that ginger beer be added and boom, that was off the chain! So much so, the owner liked it too. I said name it Dr Moctail. If you go, ask Vyoone about the drink. All in all celebrating my homie was great! I'm thinking of having my birthday celebration there in October. You guys should join me.

    I always have a wonderful experience at Vyoone's. The food, service, and ambiance are consistently impeccable. From the steak to the pasta to the oysters, everything is always amazing. It's a great spot whether you're going with friends or planning a date night. You can sit inside or outdoors, either way, you're guaranteed a good time.

    Came here for the first time recently and it was a good experience! I loved how quaint and tucked away it felt from the busy warehouse district! The entry way is so great and a nice spot for a photo opp! I'm a local and this spot had been on my list for a while! We started with the crab cake app and the scallops. We brought our own wine and the corkage fee is 25 for anyone who is wondering!! Our wine paired great with the steak and BBQ shrimp. We also ordered the lamb chops which were pretty good! We finished with white chocolate bread pudding for dessert! The food was good but not the main star. It was almost great but lacked flavor a bit. For the price point I expected a bit more flavor considering it's "cajun flavor meets fine dining" if you will. The service was really great! I forget our servers name but he really helped make our experience great! We were only 2 out of 10 people in the restaurant and it was great! Nice cozy date spot!

    This is a cozy and charming French spot in the Warehouse District, convenient for visiting conventioneers like myself. The restaurant has a smallish dining room and bar, a lovely outdoor courtyard and, I believe, private dining rooms upstairs overlooking the courtyard. The entrance is via a cute walkway past the dining room. Vyoone is the (female) owner/founder's first name. The cuisine is French with some Creole and Afro touches. Longtime waiter Spence assisted greatly in choosing what to order. I started with the crabcakes and French onion soup, both were pretty classic presentations done very well. My entree was the Duck a l'Orange, a confit duck leg and thigh served over a mushroom bread pudding and asparagus with an orange-ginger sauce. Again, tasty and classic. The peach upside down cake was a nice finish. There is a sizable cocktail and wine list, but I had a mocktail instead. The courtyard was a very pleasant dining location. Spence was great, the staff who actually brough the food less so, saying nary a word. Overall a pleasant meal within walking distance from my hotel.

    Vyoone's is definitely a must try in the Warehouse District. Not only is the space full of New Orleans charm with a gorgeous courtyard with string lights strewn throughout. There's two levels to the restaurant and the entire space can be rented out for events. Vyoone's has hosted weddings, birthday parties, corporate events and more. The food is beyond delicious as the menu is inspired by French and Afro-creole recipes from the owner's mother's kitchen. My favorite items include the famous French onion soup, the crab cakes and crawfish beignets. The desserts are also the absolute best- my favorite is the bread pudding and then the peach cake. The service is A-1, the owner is onsite frequently and is always checking in with guests. It's so lovely to have such a personal touch. I can't wait to go back for more of the menu.

    "Off the path excellence" Looking for something more local and non-touristy? This place will welcome you when you tire of Bourbon St and Frenchman Ave and want something friendlier, different and away from the hoi polloi. What's to cheer - Great seating options - up, down and intimate courtyard. - Award winning French Onion soup - Good escargot, which is hard to find in NOLA - Solid duck and scallop dishes - Really personable service - good wine list What's to jeer - Appetizers are better than the entrees - A little pricey - salad has waaaayyy too much dressing

The food timing was just right for our large party given how many items ordered (on a very busy night). Our sommelier picked perfect pairings. As a table we order probably 12 different dishes +desert to share (this is way to go imo) and each was amazing in its own way. Unique sweet savory salty combos and great presentations. I am not going to go into details as it has been covered in photos and other reviews. The outside ambience was perfect with heat lamps - on a chilly night no one needed a coat. The lighting was soft/perfect and once you entered into the wooden door you are transported into a different world. I would recommend this for family, business meeting or date night.

I started with the pig ears and had the fried chicken as my entrée, while my colleague chose the vegetarian option. You can find pig ears in Honolulu, but not prepared in this culinary style -- it was a creative and flavorful starter. The fried chicken was perfectly juicy and well-seasoned, and the honey butter added a delightful balance of savory and tangy sweetness. The ambiance was classy yet calm, making it ideal for both conversation and a relaxed dining experience. We also enjoyed lemon drop martinis with dinner -- crisp, refreshing, and the perfect complement to our meals. Overall, I would highly recommend this spot if you're looking to enjoy a refined and memorable dinner in New Orleans.

She was a bit chatty but still nice. The menu wasn't extensive at all. The waitress did a good job at selling many of the menu options. I initially had the chicken with carrots and brussel sprouts. The vegetables were perfectly cooked and flavored well. The chicken however was very dry. When the waitress asked how it was, I told her how dry it was and she immediately bright me something else, which was the fish and chips. The fish was hot, crispy, and cooked to perfection. It was tender, however it lacked flavor and seasoning. I asked for hot sauce but never received it. I finally decided to ask for a to go box to take the remaining piece home. The chips "fries" were great. They were freshly cut real potato fries. They were hot and seasoned well. My significant other had the shrimp and grits which he thoroughly enjoyed. As an appetizer we had the salad. Seemed simple and basic enough but was actually very good. I'm unsure of the dressing it was tossed in but it was just enough and well flavored. We skipped on dessert. We considered the cookie plate but since nobody could tell us what kind of cookies they were, so we decided to pass. The best part about our dining experience was the ambiance. The music was nice and the decor was vibrant and swanky . I also had a mocktail flavored with pineapple, jalapeno, lime, mint, and cilantro. It was refreshing. I'm glad we had a chance to check it out before closing but I can honestly say there was no "WOW" factor and likely I wouldn't have been in a hurry to come back.

I'd previously sampled great bites from Chef/Owner Justin Devillier (2016 James Beard Award winner for Best Chef: South) at a guest dinner in Charleston, as well as from Exec Chef Joseph Tiedmann at a Farm Dinner in West Palm Beach. But this was my first visit to "the mother ship", housed in a historic century-old building. I decided to start with the Fried Gulf Oysters - Sofrito Purée, Chowchow & Pickled Sweet Peppers, and was glad I did. There's no shortage of oyster dishes in NOLA, and this was a big winner. Next up, when in the South, why not order Fried Green Tomatoes - Burrata, Country Ham & Oregano? Another terrific plate, perhaps the best FGT dish I've had! Finally, my "target dish" arrived, the Shrimp & Okra Gumbo with Andouille, Collard Greens & Popcorn Rice. Really, really good. Very dark roux, as I like, and with plenty of seafood flavor, but more depth as well. Definitely one of the best gumbos I've ever enjoyed.

The sauce that was glazed on top, as well as the seasoning of the steak killed it!! The salmon was also delicious. Very flavorful. The stuffed potatoes were ok, we liked their side of fries more than that. Drinks were tasty and refreshing. Worth the price. We also got dessert, a chocolate cake and apple pie. I wasn't expecting to like the apple pie, but wow was that good! And the chocolate cake isn't just any boring cake. Once you break the cake, a chocolaty liquid melts out onto your plate, it was perfection. The restaurant itself is beautiful. They're located on the 14th (if I'm not mistaken) floor and have the best location for beautiful views of downtown New Orleans and the waterfront. I'm still thinking about that special sauce on the skirt steak (heart eyes). Thank u for a wonderful dinner!

    The food was okay overall the service was slow and we waited a while to get a second drink. They…read morecheck on our food quality after bringing it. My wife ordered a steak Frites well well done and half of her portion slices were medium rare. We started with deviled eggs those were tasty I can recommend that and the shrimp cocktail was good enough. The crab salad was bland it needed something else to liven up the flavor a spoon luck of mayo maybe some pepper or salt. Pepper and salt and all the condiments are on the table which I've never a fan of it. The fine dining restaurants think it means they fancy but this food wasn't fancy the place was nice. The Service needs to be retrained. We ate here because we were seeing the old-fashioned Magic show at Eliza Jane next-door and if you wanna come in for some apps or maybe try or the other entrées I didn't find anything. I really wanted to try because I'm not a big fan of French food I guess I should've tried the duck. There may be some good food here, but I won't be back till to find out we were both underwhelmed. Hopefully they fix the problems if somebody else gives a better review, but I cannot. We both agree the french fries were good. Ambience is pretty good with their remodeling so the bathroom was like a 5 to 10 minute wait it's only one person at a time and women kept using the men's room because it's only. So I had to wait two times for women to come out. Single serve bathrooms definitely are not adequate, but they're doing the best they can during remodeling.

    HORRENDOUS EXPERIENCE from the service to the wait and even down to the food. If you want to write…read morea book on how not to run a restaurant, start your thesis here. Trying to make a reservation here is like breaking into Fort Knox, nobody answers the phone and when we finally did get a res two weeks out, they MOVED the res ONE HOUR before we were set to arrive. When we arrived the place actually looked very nice and the hostess was helpful in getting us seated, and those were the last moments of happiness we would experience over the next 2 hours. We ordered bottomless mimosas for around 6/10 people in our party. Every single time our bottle of champagne ran out we had to either ask for more or get up and walk over to the bar to request it. When we finally did order our food we were pretty excited, but little did we know we would have enough time to walk down to the morning parades and catch some beads before it would actually come out. From ordering to when our food arrived was a total of 1.5 HOURS. We were 5 minutes away from just walking out. You would think "wow, this food took so long to arrive! It must be good!" WRONG. They spent the hour and a half making our food to turn our order of french toast into a two sided coin, one side normal looking, the other black as coal. Ahh, who needs the hour and a half long wait for their french toast when you can have the duck and waffles, right? And then they brought us a plate of one waffle and a single duck leg for $30. At this point we started looking around for cameras because we thought we were being pranked. Not a single person in our 10 person party (and that's a lot of chances) found this place even remotely close to mediocre. Others had their chicken sandwiches arrive cold, salads arrive bad, and come on how do you mess a salad up? The worst part was seeing a couple get up and walk out from the wait and realizing we were the poor bastards that stayed. It's a shame because the spot itself looks nice, but I guess if you paint s**t pink, it's still s**t. Don't come here.
