This restaurant does excellent food. The 5 course menu is really good. The burrata dish is light and fresh. The bouillabaisse is pleasantly spicy. The lobster tail is well done. And La Bomb is a welcome childlike dessert. You'll notice I've only listed 4 courses. And therein lies some of the problem: a lack of vegetarian options. Other than an asparagus dish and a couple of salads, I had no choice but to be pescatarian. And as the 4th dish was meat there was little to do. But here's where they get 5 stars for service. They generously allowed my wife to double up a course (she chose the lobster tail) and I got to have the lobster mac-n-cheese as a substitute. The service at the table was excellent throughout. There were two people looking after us and they were always attentive. The restaurant is beside the carousel bar, so live music and noise can be heard. But it doesn't disturb and adds a nice background to the evening. If there had been a bigger selection for vegetarian I would score them higher on food. As with a lot of places in New Orleans, salad is vegetarian. And it's a shame.

A beautiful restaurant that we had both brunch and lunch at over the week. The food was good, and the drinks were fantastic but the real excellence of this place is the service. The staff here truly love New Orleans and their kindness and passion for life comes through in their work. They take time to chat with the customers and take a real interest in your enjoyment of the city, going over and above to ensure your meal and experience is great, but that you get to see and love New Orleans as much as they do. We will definitely be back to New Orleans, and the Hotel Monteleone and Criollo will both be on our list of places to return many times.

We came here for the jazz brunch and were not let down! I got the steak and eggs, not only was my steak cooked perfectly (rare as all steaks should be) it was seasoned perfectly! My wife got the chicken and biscuits, and it was fantastic! For an appetizer, we got the Blue Crab & Corn Beignets, and let me tell you... they were phenomenal! The service was also very nice. I felt like i was dining at a 5-star restaurant! I would definitely recommend coming here, as I will be coming back!!

We came for Le Petit Chef experience the weekend after Thanksgiving. The servers and manager were great and accommodating! They made sure my 4 year old had a great meal and accommodated my family with shell fish allergies. The food was delicious! I would highly recommend this experience

What a fantastic experience! We stopped in for breakfast. I had the creole omelet and my wife had eggs Benedict. The food was exceptional! Our server Beatrice told us they had the best coffee in NOLA and she was not kidding! Beatrice and Kenny were fantastic and left us wanting to return soon.

Le petites show is fine. I think the food is not like I expected but I wasn't bad at all the taste was delicious. I can recommend this if you are tired of the same thing and want to try something different just one time. I'm talking about the way you going to eat it, not the food.

Loved my experience and will return. The only thing was I wished the omelet was cooked with a little flavor or seasoning. It tasted quite bland, and I had to add salt and pepper to it. Once added, it was delicious. The Jazz playing in the background was an amazing touch.

I randomly found this place while I couldn’t sleep and I truly enjoyed my time there. Denise was extremely tentative, the cost wasn’t bad at all, the food was great and the Bellini I had was great as well. I came for breakfast and I’d return for dinner.
