Best Neighborhood Gem Restaurants in The Marigny

Enjoyed our dining experience at RedFish last night however the musician outside playing in the street was excessively loud and right in front of the windows. I feel bad for the establishment because had we not had a reservation I would have quickly moved past it to a quieter location. Luckily we were seated in the back and could not hear it too much. Service and dinner was exceptional - loved the cornbread !!

Great food! Wonderful service. A perfect spot to bring your kiddos along. Very family friendly. It was very loud in there though.

This has been the best restaurant in New Orleans we have experienced. The service was attentive, especially since we had a child in the group. The food was delicious. The atmosphere was excellent, even tho the room seemed noisy, we had a corner round table for six of us and could talk in normal tones and everyone was heard. A perfect evening. So glad it was recommended to us!

We are from Washington State and when we made our reservations, we had planned on eating outside. Two weeks later when we got to NOLA, the weather turned for the worst and they were very prompt at accommodating us at their little barrel location. Wait staff was amazing and the food top notch. Would recommend to anyone looking for good Italian in the big easy.

Food and service were exceptional. We had the ceviche’ and lobster ravioli appetizers then ordered Hallibut with scallops and shrimp risotto — the signature dish — and the Parmesan-crusted sheepshead with lemon butter and browned capers served either asparagus as our main courses. Everything was perfectly prepared! We ordered 3 desserts to top it all off: the salty malty ice cream pie, the white chocolate bread pudding and the chocolate mouse in a dark chocolate dome with raspberry gelee’. Perfect evening. Except for learning at the end of the night that our parking would not be validated. We were not told to bring the parking ticket to the front desk at the beginning of the night. If you go to GW Finn’s and expect to get parking validated, do not pay the garage when you park (despite the fact that all of the signs in the garage and the boots on cars are somewhat threatening in there). Instead, take your unpaid parking garage ticket directly to the front desk at the restaurant for validation with a picture of your license plate. This was the only sour note of our evening. Otherwise, it was perfect!
