Best Historic Restaurants in Mid-City / City Park

Our service team, Sylas and Myles, were phenomenal! Very welcoming, pleasant to talk to, and reflected genuine Southern hospitality. An added highlight to the end of our visit was Roydell (sp?), who took us on a tour of the various rooms and gave the stories behind each. He is an excellent ambassador for your restaurant! We will request him and Wylita (sp?) on our next visit. Great time on curating a fantastic team!

Whenever we are in town, we always try to make at least one visit to Vessel. We've been there several times, and the food is always spectacular, delicious and consistent. The service is excellent and always top notch. It is truly a beautiful restaurant unlike anything we've ever seen, it's in an old church and the ceiling is amazing. We are already planning our next trip and have Vessel on the top of our list of "must do's".

I have to say I don’t understand all the bad reviews about this place. The food was excellent ( the hanger steak and gulf fish) and the service was lovely. I’ll definitely be back!

Amazing. I’ll be back. Sweet potato beignets was my purpose for coming.

There were 8 of us and the Revellion menu had something for us all. Not one of the group was dissatisfied with any part of the meal. Two meals of particular brilliance were the chopping and the roasted duck. The ciopino was all Louisiana in style and in flavor. The roasted duck in a grape blueberry confit was genius and easily the best game bird I ever tasted. An honorable mention and very honorable indeed was the pork chop which was thick delicious and tender. Randy provided an excellent night of service, knowledgeable and attentive. A very professionable waiter.
