Best Restaurants for Quiet Conversation in Old Fourth Ward

We went for The Feast of Seven Fishes (only counted 6). Started with cocktails, but the 1st course came ahead of them, so we waited. Both (different) cocktails were mostly nugget ice and heavily citrused. Won’t order cocktails again. Small plates were decent, but confidently small. The lobster tortellini plate made up for the total meal and was generous. Basque cheesecake is an interesting less-sweet option but I wouldn’t opt for it.

Great ambiance around the Holidays, flew in town for a Football game and wanted a romantic dinner with good food, great wine list and Ray’s was it! Def order the warm butter cake for dessert !

We LOVED our experience this past weekend. From the host to the server (Jazz, I think his name was) to the food and the drinks, this entire dining experience was beyond 5 stars. My husband and I have had such a hard time finding a place to have a nice meal recently and I cannot gush enough about how tender the Veal was, how attentive but not clingy Jazz was, and how the hostess cared so much about making our night special. We cannot wait to return.

It is a great neighborhood location that has just the right balance of comfort food (meatloaf, pork chops, seafood, and pasta) with a step of higher class. Priced within means to enjoy a nice meal and glass of wine (or cocktail). A favorite

Ambiance was good and our waitress was also very good. However the food didn't meet expectations. The warm crab dip was very good. However I ordered a NY Strip steak and it was par for a steak. Tasted like it wasn't seasoned at all and the broccoli has a burnt taste to it.
