   My first visit to Vessel was phenomenal! I selected scallops with risotto and the roasted asparagus after discussing the menu with my waiter. I chose this dish based on his recommendation and was very pleased. Presentation was stunning and the food was delicious. I thoroughly enjoyed the vibes that the restaurant projected and was pleased with my interactions with the staff. I definitely will be back and will bring my coworkers with me.

   The food was significantly below the quality that one would expect for what the food costs. From when we ordered to when we got our food was 45 minutes. Our appetizer was forgotten and then brought out mid-meal.

   My husband and I had the most wonderful Christmas Eve dinner! The staff are incredible. The ambiance is beautiful and so energetic. Highly recommend. The owners, Alec and Eddie truly made it an extraordinary experience for us. Will be back for the great times and great cocktails and food. The hand crafted espresso martinis and Seafood pasta are a must have!

   This has to be the top 5 worst restaurant experiences of my lifetime, and I eat out about once a week. It is unfortunate because New Orleans is known for hospitality, food, fun, and good experiences. This restaurant has a per-person cancelation fee- when we got there one of the members of our party was stuck on a flight, delayed for 8 hours, and wasn't going to make it instead of being gracious, the hostess said next time, call us and make the change- excuse me I am more concerned with my family member being stuck in the air than calling the restaurant to make a change from 5 to 4 and by the way the size of the table didn't change. That was just the start; it got way worse. We waited an hour and a half for food, but every runner came with other tables' food to our table for an entire hour- a cheese plate, another started we didn't order, a crab cake- we saw at least 5 or 6 dishes we didn't order. That tells me the back of the house is not run well. We dine out a lot and have worked in the service industry. We checked on our food multiple times while two tables on the far end left and two on either side were on dessert. Another runner came and brought two orders of fries that he set down on two other tables. We didn't order fries- we ordered a salad and scallops, salmon, seafood pasta, and Gulf fish. A manager came out and said the chef sent the fries to hold us over. REALLY? What Chef would send french fries after an hour and a half to a table as a hold-over? I would be too embarrassed to send fries- it didn't even go with our meals. If we wanted to pay $460 ( total bill) for french fries, I would at least hope they would taste better. This place is a disaster. The food is overly salty, and the service is terrible. Their target is me. People with disposable income have lots of company, travel frequently, and are willing to pay 40-50 dollars a plate on a normal night. This is not a special occasion place. As someone who loves the city. SKIP IT.

   The food was outstanding. The service was EXTREMELY SLOW considering the few tables they have. We made a reservation well in advance for them to heat the outside space and still didn’t turn heaters on until we arrived. I called well in advance to make sure the space was heated. Prices seemed high for the smaller portions. Took almost 2 hours to get our food.
