Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Tommy DiGiovanni

From the OpenTable editors: This legendary restaurant has been doing some of the best Creole fine dining in the French Quarter for more than 100 years. Chandeliers, white tablecloths, and tiled floors set the stage for a series of NOLA favorites like the must-order soufflé potatoes, seafood gumbo, and the spice-studded café brulot that's torched tableside. Make sure to grab a classic New Orleans cocktail before or after your meal at French 75, Arnaud's adjacent James Beard Award-winning bar.

    Arnaud's never disappoints. This time was possibly the BEST in the 35 years I've been coming here. The entire staff, especially Augie, Mike and Maurice in particular, were wonderful! Our celebration was perfection! Thank you all so much!

    This was our first time to visit this historic restaurant and we had an absolutely amazing experience! Our server, Jasper was phenomenal as was Kaitlin. I’m not sure what the salad dressing was but it was so, so good! The filet was perfect and the shrimp creole was the best we’ve ever had! All of that was topped off with a great bananas foster. We can’t wait to come back again next time we are in town.
