Food, service, and ambiance were all amazing. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. The wait staff is always eager to make recommendations based upon the specials and whatever is in season. The bar is fully stocked with all the liquor you can imagine. In my opinion the classiest neighborhood restaurant around.

As noted in my previous review this is an Uptown neighborhood institution. It's classic, genteel, sometimes loud, yet a typical upscale NOLA white tablecloth restaurant.We came with several friends and had a table upstairs. There are a series of rooms, and we were at the room with wine storage, vast wine storage.Seated right away we got water and ordered drinks. I got a Sazarac, a favorite infused with Absinthe. OK, I had two. The waiter warned that on the third I would be carried home. I had two.They brought the ubiquitous French bread in small bags. So light with a thin crust.As a group we ordered fried oysters and they were delicious, full of rich flavor in a white sauce.We had small side salads that were incredibly fresh and dressed lightly.I had the Pompano (fish) for my entree and it was perfectly prepared and flakey. It was a large portion. It came with small potatoes that I found to be too salty for my taste.For dessert I tried the bread pudding, absolutely deliciousService was so professional and yet light and friendly, like eating at a friend's house with a person who really knows how to entertain with class.It's difficult to get reservations, but worth the try as it's always packed full.Apologies, but when I'm with a group I refrain from taking many pictures. It's tacky and I think rude to pull out a phone and start clicking, especially with folks you haven't seen for some time

Went here with my boyfriend when we visited NOLA avoiding the hurricane Helene. He booked it after seeing a recommendation in a NYT article. Upon arrival I felt as if every customer had read the same one. It was stuffed with finance bros and well dressed middle aged couples, but it wasn't stuffy! There was a nice ambiance and energy about the place. We had a lovely welcome from the two managing the front door, it was very busy and they were very attentive and nice. The style of the restaurant was beautiful and classy, and the bar looked well stocked.The service was impeccable. Our waiter was attentive and classy. It felt very old school which I respect, although I may not be old enough to make that claim. My initial review was 3 stars but I can't possibly leave this with the service we received. The dirty martini my boyfriend and I ordered was quite honestly one of the best I've ever had. I'm a very pro olive person, and this had the perfect amount of olive brine. I will 100% come back for one of these and enjoy it at the bar. Now for the food. I want to blame myself partly, as I didn't take much charge over the ordering process and went with what was recommended.To start:Fried oysters with Brie (recommended)Watermelon salad with feta Main: Seared Tuna (special)Veal something (I can't remember)Dessert: Lemon pie? The fried oysters were as plain as you'd maybe expect. The Brie was ....Brie, and didn't add anything, mainly because it's Brie. I was shocked to hear that these were referenced in the NYT article as recommended. I need to check the background on the person who suggested this as they must have an aversion to flavour. The salad was fineI ordered the Tuna and it was beyond salty. I'm actually a salt-aholic so for me to make comment means it's possibly went too far. I still ate most of it, I didn't really feel like complaining. Mainly because the staff were nice and I kinda lost my appetite. Another issue was it had clearly been sitting under a heat lamp as the mash was hard which was sad cause I love fluffy soft mash potatoes. I had some of my boyfriend's veal which was okay! He liked it so that's all that mattered. We had some kind of lemon pie for dessert and by now I wasn't very hungry but I had a bite and it was delicious. My boyfriend keeps talking about it because he adored it. So I absolutely recommend this. Clancys to me felt like a bit of a disappointment, they have a very classy style of service and hard working employees but their food is not up to par for the prices they charge. Next time we come back it will be for martinis and lemon pie!

As always this restaurant on Annunciation served delicious food. We went for lunch. The fish of the day was speckled trout and it was excellent and fresh. The sauce was outstanding and the cornbread dressing cake under the fish was also tasty. 3 of us shared the lemon meringue pie - so good!My only complaint- it's so loud! Pretty much all locals and well, we are loud! Our server did a great job.

I can't say enough good things about our dinner at Clancy's. The staff is amazing! We had issues with our reservations (our fault) and they went out of their way to accommodate us. Our waiter was phenomenal from start to finish. Everything we ordered was great. You have to order the oysters and Brie and the lemon ice box pie and then from there you can't go wrong. We will be back soon.

If your looking for awesome food and service that's not a tourist trap this is your place. It's always full of locals and even celebrities (Cooper Manning was at the table next us). Everything here is great but the Lamb Chops are truly life changing!

Amazing place. Great atmospheres for a date night especially if you sit upstairs. Upstairs is more quiet and less crowded. Food was amazing. Will be back for the braise pork cheeks and the fried gulf fish topped the crab meat and lemon better. Seriously one of the best meals I have ever had. Also our waiter Peter as excellent 5/5 stars. It is in the top 5 places in Nola

The shrimp remoulade salad had lettuce doused in vinaigrette, 5 medium shrimp, one stuffed egg, and a few shreds of carrot for almost $30 dollars. It wan't anything special for a price tag of $30..one and done.
