Alexa R. "I went for the first time for a friend's birthday and everything was outstanding! We started with white wine and a friend got a tomato martini which was to die for. It was unlike anything I've ever had and a week later I'm still dreaming about it. We went during happy hour and a got a few appetizers from that menu, the okra tempura, the fries, and the peach + prosciutto arancini. They were all so good and unlike anything I've ever had. For mains we split the shrimp gnocchi and the stone creek wagyu flank steak. Again, perfection. We also ordered the brown butter griddled cornbread for dessert and they brought it out with a lit candle! So thoughtful and kind. There were 3 of us and we felt like we ordered the perfect amount of food. The total price for each of us was also really reasonable. The service was amazing. The restaurant was so cute on the inside. It felt very romantic. I'm dying to go back!"

Joi B. "How could I not like a bar named Night Bloom? I knew this place prides itself on being a late night spot and in the lower St. Claude area, it is part of a renaissance in the neighborhood, so kudos to that!Night Blooms has atmosphere in droves with its sultry dark interior, plants creating coziness and a large circular bar in the middle. I would have happily sat at the bar, which I don't always do, but we grabbed a highboy by a window. I loved the music, a lot of it 80s dance hits on the night we were there.The second room is even darker-- love this because it feels like you're in some secret club. Can't wait to go back and sit in this area.It's owned by some of the Bacchanal folks, so the wine list is highly curated and I loved my icy cold glass of sparkling. This isn't a beer drinkers paradise (I don't care but if someone in your party is sticking to beer, they have a limited selection). They also make a fine Aperol Spritz.Looking forward to being a regular!"

Immanuel L. "I came to Gaia for a birthday dinner with my fiance. I came here because it was supposed to be upbeat eclectic steak house. The place has a beautiful curated ambiance, but the music when we got here was putting me to sleep and had Billie Eilish style of covers of other songs and was not it.The table we sat was in a cute little back room and was very personal but the table legs were a little uncomfortable and the table was a little too far but it had some style with it. The service was great, it was fast, everything was explained and even the awesome cut of our steaks with salt bae action display was super cool. Just remember if you want to take a picture of the steak tartare with the quail egg make sure you let them know because they squashed it and was not able to to do the squashing myself. Which I like to do. As far as the appetizer flavors and display we got the Spanish octopus which was cooked to perfection and tasted amazing with the chimichurri which had a nice little spice kick to it that was perfect. We also had the steak tartare with the quail egg and caviar that was super delicious and citrusy bringing all the flavors together. Our main dish were the private reserve cut and the filet mignon. The private reserve cut was cooked perfect for a medium rare and the filet mignon was slightly overcooked to a medium instead of a medium rare but the quality of meats were great and super tender and delicious. We paired the steaks with Sautéed mushrooms and that was a great pairing. Finally we had the espresso drink, but switched it with a reposado don julio and a bottle of CHATEAUNEUF-DU-PAPE bottle of wine which was delicious. Their pricing was pretty on point for a steak house and they had a very large wine selection which I did appreciate. Finally the dessert was the ice creams. We loved the ice cream flavors which was the mango, pistachio, chocolate and red bean. They had an outside of white chocolate that was quite overpowering and took away from the ice creams. The chocolate paired well with its outside regular chocolate not white chocolate exterior. The mango tasted well with the white chocolate but the pistacho the white chocolate took away from it. The red bean was too light that you can barely taste even with just the ice cream itself. They do not bring or make the reservation any more special for birthdays, which is something I did appreciate from gw fins and other nice restaurants even if they did a free Dessert taster that would be an awesome add. Service fee is included. I will come back but please keep the music nice and vibey, house music, disco, funky, lo-fi but not Billie eilish style."

Luzianne Cafe

★★★★☆ 4.3 (237) • $$

Patti B. "After seeing all the rave reviews, we were sorely disappointed. There was plenty of seating when we arrived. You order at counter or with QR. The mimosas were ready by the time we checked out at the counter, but are in plastic cups. You can get your own water and coffee. We had biscuits and gravy and chicken and waffles. The biscuit and gravy were good, but had a skim on gravy and was just warm, not hot. That was the better of the two meals. The waffles were dry and not hot. The pecan butter did not melt on them, even under the scoop of butter that was on top of the waffle. The chicken was hot enough, but unremarkable and a small serving. Big seating area with tables seating up to 8, a little loud, but not as much as you would think from the look of the place. Overall, unless you don't want to walk farther, there are better places to eat in the area. I'd recommend Flamingo a GoGo as an alternative. They have bottomless mimosas and the chicken and waffles are much better and a bigger serving for just a few dollars more. However, it is noisy, but they make reservations and you get table service."

I can occasionally appreciate fancy mofo stuff though hence the four star review.I stopped in here because I wanted to get a bourbon before dinner. I beat my friends to the lobby and figured I should stop in. There was a dude playing piano, a bunch of groups or couples, and some giant unfancy dude in jeans and plaid.The bar had a pretty decent selection of booze and I opted for a glass of Tin Cup (some age statement, but I can't remember what it was). It was somewhere in the neighborhood of $20 with the tip. Whoa nah. I am definitely not fancy enough for this joint.I sat at an empty table and enjoyed the drink while listening to some dude play piano. He was pretty good so if you like that sort of thing, you will probably like this bar. If you are more of a sit at home and have a drink, or sit at a dive bar and drink kind of person, you will probably not."

From the vibrant atmosphere to the incredible food and drinks, this spot hits all the right notes.Their menu is a delicious mix of Caribbean-inspired dishes with bold and fresh flavors. The tacos are a must-try--so creative and packed with flavor--and their sides, like the coconut rice and sweet plantains, are the perfect additions. And let's not forget the drinks! Whether you're craving a classic mojito or one of their unique rum cocktails, the bar menu is top-notch.One of the things I love most about The Rum House is that it's dog-friendly! As long as you sit outside, your furry friend is welcome to join you while you dine. It's such a fun and laid-back spot to enjoy with your pup by your side.The service is always friendly and attentive, and the outdoor seating adds to the relaxed, tropical vibe. Whether you're stopping by for a casual lunch, date night, or just to enjoy some time with your dog, The Rum House is the perfect spot. Highly recommend!"

Look out Guy F, Krissy K The Ghost Wryder Got to it first!

Vikkie N. "It's definitely a little more than a hop, skip and a jump from downtown and as a tourist with no wheels I did wonder if the trek was worth it. It was!We got the St. Charles Streetcar to Peniston and walked down Peniston to the distillery - about 10 mins along pleasant, quiet streets with cute traditional houses to gawk at along the way.The tour is a short one around the warehouse, but the story behind the owner and the original bourbon whiskey (and now all the other stuff they make) is worth listening to.I don't do straight-up liquor and I'm not a bourbon person (quite frankly the visit was 99% for my hubby who loves the stuff), but I did have a gin and tonic afterwards with their house NOLA sweet potato gin. O.M.G. So good! I have so much gin at home that I had no business buying another bottle... but I did.If you're lucky enough to have George as your bartender - he's the bomb."

This location is cash only and its is located in a divey strip mall but I've always received great customer service and the mixed daiquiri concoctions are miracle workers on your current disposition.The inside is run down but it is clean and it has TVs on the wall. This seems to be a gathering spot for people to play pool and have just have a drink after a long day. Ample parking is available."

We ordered right at the bar and then got a number and found a table. I was actually really surprised that we found a table because a game was going on and it was pretty packed. The food came out really fast and was delicious. I got the half off oyster platter with a variety of oysters and the cheese fries. And the fries were waffle fries and they were delicious. My friend got a gin drink that looked amazing and I contemplated that after having one of the margaritas. I really enjoyed the happy hour here and would suggest anybody going back. Other things on the menu looked good but for half off an oyster platter I'm all in."

Even if country music isn't your thing (it's not mine), the drink prices more than make up for it. The bartenders were friendly, and since it wasn't crowded, getting drinks was easy. They have bars both upstairs and downstairs, although the upstairs one was closed while we were there (wasn't busy so it made sense).

We came for brunch with a friend and it is as good as always.Tucked nicely in a neighborhood bordering Uptown and the Garden District it's in a lovely homey building with a lot of character.Always white tablecloth experience we were seated right away for brunch. Make sure you have a reservation as the place isn't big, quite intimate, as are many New Orleans better quality neighborhood establishments.I immediately ordered their signature Bloody Mary, as it is an institutional drink here. Unfortunately, they no longer have the Bloody Mary bar where after you order your particular vodka you head to the bar and put your own drink together with all the refinements imaginable. It used to be a fun event in itself. We were told it was ended with the pandemic. Sad, yet understandable.I ordered the Crab Cake Benedict and it was absolutely delectable. The crab cake mixture was perfectly molded together and cooked well, and two poached eggs on top.So good.They also brought some delectable small muffins with flavored butter.It was a relaxed and wonderful brunch.Service was very professional and added to a very pleasant meal."
