What a day! We spent the week in the Quarter and by far this was the best event of the trip!!!
Galatoire’s Friday Lunch is a must do experience!
This was the one place my father in-law said “we must do”, so not going wasn’t an option. Just getting a reservation in and of it’s self was a task because it’s so iconic.
My wife called months in advance to try and book, but due to the Halloween festivities it was almost impossible.
A huge THANK YOU to Caroline Oliver. She was so nice, communicative, and accommodating working with us.
We arrived early for our 11:30am reservations, but not to worry because their bar was already open. We passed through the dinning room as the service staff was in a lineup getting prepared for the day’s service. Even though it was all business one server acknowledge us and made us feel immediately welcomed. We enjoyed cocktails at the bar which we thought would be dead, but it was alive and well. We knew that this was going to be an extra special experience based on the elaborate costumes people were wearing for Halloween.
We were promptly seated and the ambience was already at a rolling bubble, ready to boil.
As fate would have it the same server who greeted us in the staff lineup was also our server to the day, and I’m so thankful she was!
Candace Dickey or “Ace” absolutely made our experience!
She immediately made us feel at home and took control of our dinning cadence, allowing us relax and enjoy our day. She was maestro to our bacchanalia. The food was spot on: hot, fresh, classic, and full of the flavor’s of New Orleans that stay with you a lifetime. The entire staff was on point all around, it felt like we were at a party not a restaurant. We even got to compliment the chef!
A second line band even came through and sent the whole dinning room into a festive frenzy!
This was a dinning experience I will never forget.
In my 15+ years of restaurant management from Tampa, to L.A., and Atlanta; the service and dinning experience from start to finish is what excellence is all about. Thank you to the manager who greeted us as we left and to all the staff that made our trip one of the greats!

We had a party of 8 here to celebrate a birthday. We had a reservation and we were seated promptly. All of the men in our party were required to wear jackets. We knew beforehand. We had a round table and we liked it because it felt you could talk to every person at the table. Our servers were nice, funny, and prompt. At no time, we felt rushed. It was a great time. I felt that the dining room was a little packed with tables and patrons but it was not unbearable. The food was delicious. I had the petit filet and it was great. This was my first visit. Not sure when I can come back but given the opportunity, I would.

I came here expecting a true New Orleans classic, and while the food itself was solid, the service left a lot to be desired.
We were seated at 7:00, and by 9:00 we had only been served one round of drinks. Dinner was nowhere in sight, and there wasn’t much urgency from the staff to check in or move things along. For a restaurant with this reputation and price point, the pacing was disappointing and really took away from the experience.
Once the food did arrive, it was good — traditional flavors, well-prepared, and worth the wait from a culinary standpoint. Unfortunately, the painfully slow service overshadowed what could have been a memorable meal.
If you’re planning a visit, expect good food but be prepared to spend the entire evening waiting for it.

This was our second iconic restaurant in NOLA and simply put we were blown away – again.
Service: Top notch. Kelsey, our server, was fantastic and took great care of us. Drinks came out often and well made.
Ambience: Definitely a 5 star French restaurant vibe – very cozy and welcoming.
Food: Incredible- I BBQ steaks all the time but the flavour and umami of the filet I had was freaking amazing. Like life changing amazing. My wife had the salmon that she loved. All the sides we ordered were equally outstanding.
I am going to dream about this place for a while. I wish I could give it 6 stars. It is that good.

Amazing food, cocktails and service. The ambiance is nice too. The front dining room is a little bit stuffy and you are required to have a jacket if you’re a man. This is like old school fine dining. The back dining room is perfect for families or us heathens that didn’t bring fancy clothes.
All the food is well cooked, presented beautifully and beyond tasty. The drinks are well mixed and balanced. I definitely recommend making a trip here.

A Nola tradition I have wanted to try for years. Attended a family event in the private dining room on the 2nd floor, which is a beautiful room with direct access out to a balcony looking over Bourbon Street (see photo for the view from balcony). The main restaurant was totally full. Food was good. Turtle soup good – not particularly memorable. Almondine fish good. Everyone enjoyed their meal and the service was excellent. Glad I was able to finally eat here. Probably still a NOLA or GW Finns kind of eater, but this is a classic. (The main dining room was very loud but everyone was having a great time!)

I don’t like giving Galatoire’s a 3-Star rating, but here is why.
Service -1 Star: the server was hurried like what you expect at a Waffle House, not fine dining.
Food -1 Star: Flavors are not being built with depth. Everything is hurried and covered up with pepper.
I really should subtract another star for them not upholding the Dress Code. We were in business casual attire with a sport coat. There were 2 tables with hoodies and beanies. That’s completely unacceptable.

Went to the infamous fried chicken brunch. Arrived on time. Was seated quickly. Then sat there. A random server gave us water. Food was just placed on our table with no explanation of acknowledgment. Bare minimum for 2 people. Still no one came to check on us. I had to ask someone passing for a soda. I had to ask a busboy for our check. When he asked how was it I told him horrible. He asked to give it another try. I’m not wasting over $160 again for 2 people. NEVER. My money spends just like everybody else. And a sweet potato pie doesn’t make everything all good.

Great place for dinner. A must for NO’s dining. We ordered the asparagus/ hearts of palm salad, broiled pompano & stuffed eggplant with seafood along with cauliflower and Brabant potatoes. The main course was the french silk pie. Everything was excellent! Stephen was a great server.

Absolutely amazing experience. Expected a great dinner, but was thrilled by our waiter- who suggested he feed us. Asked us a bunch of questions and then he made the choices for us. We couldn’t have been more pleased with each menu item he brought us. Even his wine pairings were excellent. His attention to us and our experience made our night and my wife’s 50th birthday- she was soooo happy. The entire restaurant sang to her.
