Eponymous flagship of Chef Lagasse's empire. – The Scene The main room is stylish and active. The high ceiling reflects a good deal of noise, but diners don't seem to mind. Not particularly good for a romantic tryst, but it's good for a fancy see-and-be-seen event. Servers are attentive, offering drink and bread basket refills before you think to ask. The Food Lagasse's trademark dishes are modern and complex, but employ classical ingredients and techniques. The ever-evolving menu usually includes several items that use such... read more
Emeril's Re-opens Post K – Live in the neighborhood and wanted to be there for the re-opening on Dec. 8th to support this local business. 4 of us were the first to be seated, best table in the restaurant (except for the private kitchen table), the service was wonderful, Emeril not only served us personally but thanked us for coming in. Our food was delicious, in particular my salmon and the gnocci appetizers were top-notch. A couple of miss-steps in service by the regular waiter, but it was opening night after all. Everyone ... read more
Foodie Heaven – Our first visit to New Orleans was highlighted by a planned visit to this NO staple. The food was fantastic, the setting was very beautiful and the service was impeccable, you wanted for nothing. The wine list is like reading an encylopedia with a very wide range in types and prices. The menu has something for everyone and the waiters all very well trained. Sometimes this much attention can be annoying, but these guys deliver it without a hitch and we never felt intruded upon.
Good, but no need to go back – We had a great waiter who looked like it was his first day, but he still knew how to take care of a table. Got to see everything going on in the kitchen, which was nice. Dinner was too pricey, and the food just took too long to come out. 2-person dinner was almost 3-hours. Lamb and chocolate souffle were great. Sausage appetizer was nice, but small. Salmon was undercooked as the apptizer. Romaine lettuce salad with bacon and crab was too basic. Took about 25 minutes to get bread, and an hour to... read more
NOLA Excellence – Don't hate this place because of the overexposure of it's namesake. The fact is, it is one of the best run kitchens in NOLA. For a real experience, sit at the food bar and watch the chefs at work right before your eyes. Try the Tasmanian sea trout if it is on the menu. Meats are done especially well here as well and you can't go wrong with any order of beef or pork. The chocolate covered peanut butter pie is a must try if you have room for dessert.
Outstanding – We had a late reservation (10:00 pm). The service at that time was wonderful. The food was great. It was worth the expense and the late night reservation. The decor was nice, and the staff was friendly and helpful. Will definately return.
This skeptic loved it – Okay, as I usually am with restaurants that have the big names and the big prices attached, I was the same with Emeril's. Once I bit into the calamari appetizer, it all changed. The food was delicious and not in measly portions as some fancy restaurants give. My only complaint (and that of my friends) was that some dishes were a little salty, but still very delicious. The desserts were great too. Overall, a great experience from top to bottom, and the place is GORGEOUS.
seven of us went and had been looking forward to it for months. i had been to Nola and it was great. we sat 20 minutes after our reservation time. they were out of several of our specials. four of us had steaks. two were undercooked and two were cold. the service was terrible. we ordered dessert with our entree order and it still came 30 minutes after our dinner plates were cleared. emeril should be ashamed. the waiter never apologized.
Best Experience – I went in December of '03 for an anniversary. We had reservations for 2 months, and still had to wait, but it was worth it! The food was so delicious and the service was outstanding. Everything was brought out in a timely fashion. The waiters were proper in every move they made. For our one table we had 3 waiters! I felt like a princess. I totally recommend this for a special romantic occasion. At the end of dinner they brought candles in our deserts and wished us a happy anniversary! VERY romantic!
