Chamaine took amazing care of us on our recent dinner trip. While we were bummed that one of the beef dishes wasn’t available, all of the dishes we tried were fantastic. We had the gumbo, the steamed mussels, the pork chop, and the spaghetti bordelaise. The cocktails were also top notch, especially my EB Old Fashioned! We will definitely be booking here again in the future!

Charmaine was fantastic. She was a very attentive bartender and checked in with me frequently. The food was amazing. I've had the French Onion soup (devine) and also the Tarte (which is also insanely good). Would definitely recommend this to all.

Food was delicious and Deyira was the greatest server and very attentive to our large party. I ordered the French 75 & Crawfish Pasta. Very creamy and delicious, no complaints.

We had a very good experience tonight. The food and service were excellent except wifey’s fillet was way undercooked she wanted med came out rare. But our server Ariana was very nice and got it fixed. We had a French 75, Hurricane, then a glass of wine each. Chicken liver pate for an appetizer it was excellent, I had the boneless short rib it too was delicious. No room for dessert . Overall we had a very good experience, just a little noisy music was a bit distracting. If you’re in New Orleans give them a try. Cheers.

While we were in New Orleans for Mardi Gras we decided to try dinner @ Emerils Brasserie. Wow!! What A Great Idea! We had Boneless Beef Short Ribs. Very good Wife had the Lobster Pot Pie. She Loved Every Bite. Herb Crusted Salmon. Nice I had the Louisiana Crawfish Etouffee. Best Dish of the Night Little Spicey...not too much just right. We finished w/ the Pecan Bread Pudding. MMMMMM

Charmaine our server and Joe one of the chef was so knowledgeable and amazing. The food was so good and when I say everything was good!!! Everything was good!!! I loved the claws, oysters, flaky pizza with the thick bacon and the gumbo. Sooooo good. The dessert was so flavorful and just the right amount of sweet and creamy. So an amazing experience and I will definitely come here every time I come to New Orleans.

Emeril's Brasserie NOLA is hands down an exquisite fine dining experience! Miss Dee was our personal hostess. She was very polite, super friendly, and very attentive to all of our needs and special requests. Kudos, Miss Dee You're the best! The Seafood Tower was absolutely phenomenal! My sissy had the pork chop dinner, and it was huge! But it was truly superb! To sum it all up...We dined sufficiently! Thank you, Sir Emeril, for your many years of staying on top of your A game as a chef and restaurateur and always doing it right! We love you!

The restaurant is in the casino, it’s absolutely gorgeous. Service was delightful and cocktail menu was original and imaginative. The steaks are amazing and you should order one. I always say Emerils doesn’t disappoint- but he did on one little detail. I ordered steak frites and it was amazing - except the fries - I guess I expected hand cut fries from Emeril - sadly they were not. Other than that the experience was delightful. Tatyana was our server and she was very sweet and attentive.
