A painting of a rooster, a national Portuguese symbol of good luck, greets guests at the entrance. Once inside, a jamon bar with countertop service and tile-clad DJ booth are focal points of the space.

    We had been waiting for so long to go to Shaya! It was a beautiful restaurant with attention to details and amazing service! The fried chicken hummus was incredible and by far our favorite…nothing like it we have ever tried! Comparable to a hummus from a Michelin restaurant in DC…definitely a must try on Shaya’s menu! Can’t wait to return here next time we are in New Orleans!

    The food and service was amazing. I had the cheeseburger and my sister had the lamb burger. We both enjoyed. We also had the fresh cut fries and onion rings. For dessert we tried the hot apple spring roll with ice cream. We enjoyed our dinning experience. Everything was exceptional.
