Storyville

Walking into a darkish place that's beautifully decorated is my jam these days. I came in with a friend but this would probably be a super cute date night spot or even a stop over for girls night cocktails. We started with the savory beignets. These are GOOD. The texture was on point on point. Needed more dipping sauce imo. I'm always going to want more dipping sauce. The Bayou Margarita was good! And pretty. And smoky--just as described on the menu. I tried the Violet Lady drink and it was refreshing. Also very pretty. Service was very nice. The waitress was knowledgeable and the manager stopped by the table to check in and she was such a delight! The redfish was o.k. I think the whole dish was overdone. Cooked a little longer than I expected and the plating was not it. I personally wouldn't order that again but it was seasoned well. I'd go back for the beignets. I wish I had ordered some sweet ones for the road. It's interesting that they were playing Motown hits instead of classic New Orleans Jazz or something but it was cool.

Cool vibe! Very well decorated! We had a party of 6, and our table was very small. Service was okay. It took awhile for drinks to come out. I had the king cake colada drink. This was good! I had the banana foster martini for desert and this was wonderful! For dinner we started with the cod nuggets and I would get these again and again! These were perfection and had a spicy mayo dipping sauce! For my main I had the jambalaya with shrimp. This was fine. It had a strong Cajun flavor and the whole dish just tasted like that. My favorite part was heading downstairs to the speakeasy. A wonderful vibe with the same drinks as upstairs! I would get rid of the tarot card reader, it was 20 seconds and more funny than helpful!

I came here twice both on Friday nights on two separate occasions. Really was disappointed in the compulsory 25% tip for all parties no matter what you order.... And had to our of embarrassment( which really shouldn't be the case) to ask to take it off getting the bill. The drinks were already $20 and $15 each...a cognac based cocktail my friend ordered and my grasshopper. The second time we came for happy hour which the bourbon old fashioned was $6( quite the steal!) but very very sugary...(I would have probably said something if it wasn't such a. Good price)but since I don't like to waste a cocktail I still managed to finish it lolThe three stars goes to the food for happy hour which was $1 beignets each, $8 chicken po boy ( nice tender lightly fried chicken strips).

Cool speakeasy spot in the basement of the restaurant. It's fairly small and can be very tight. Did like the variety of drinks but can take some time to actually order and get them. Was waiting for a while to get a waiter to come get our drink order so went up to the bar but was told that I have to wait for the waiter to come to our table which was a little disappointing.

Did someone say happy hour??? Of course I had to come back to Storyville and indulge! Walking in they had plenty of seating but that filled up as time went on. We were seated and service was spectacular. Our waitress was very attentive. She gave great recommendations for drinks and food. The drinks were good, not so strong. The food was pretty good as well. I love the whole New Orleans theme, the ambience is on point. Lighting is perfect and the decor really makes you feel as if you're down south.

10s all across the board. Coming from a person who's from New Orleans, this was the closest thing to it in the city. The best happy hour in River north!!!! Our server Jada was super friendly and attentive. The $1 beignets for happy hour were greattttttt

Such an amazing experience! Happy hour was on point. I enjoyed the atmosphere, it was a cool place to hangout on a Friday! Management and employees showed good hospitality and made me feel welcomed!

The food and service was absolutely amazing. Our server Jada was great. We enjoyed our time.

I stopped in on Sunday night the place was hopping with a super fun vibe so surprised as busy as they were I didn't have to wait long at all to get waited on my server Jenny was amazing taking time to completely go over the menu as it was my first time there Tima was fantastic tending bar the drinks were coming out super fast and perfectly mixed a total pro food was really good but the service was completely top notch both Jada any Jenny handled the busy dining room perfectly

Had a dinner party for ten and the Storyville team went out of their way to make the night great! The food was absolutely delicious and the cocktails were amazing! We cannot recommend this place enough for a dinner party or a date night!! I can't wait to come back again and again. Thank you Storyville!!!
