Chez Jacqueline

Ouh là là! What a wonderful evening we had at Chez Jacqueline's! A cozy, quaint little gem of a restaurant with a fun-loving French atmosphere. We attended her very special Valentine's dinner event... complete with flowers & chocolates for the ladies, champagne, wine, 5 appetizers, entree, cheese board with warm bread and dessert, while being serenaded by a guitarist...all in over 3 hours of this fabulous French dining experience. The simple ingredients of each dish blended so well on the palate and we just love Jacqueline. She is an octogenarian full of spunk, determination, talent and love!

From the moment you step into Chez Jacqueline, the warm ambiance and inviting decor set the stage for a delightful dining experience. The star of the show, Chef Jacqueline, is as charming and sweet as her namesake restaurant. Her passion for cooking and genuine care for her guests are evident in every dish and interaction, making you feel right at home. The Mediterranean Salmon is a standout dish that showcases Chef Jacqueline’s culinary skills. Cooked to perfection, the salmon is incredibly tender, flaunting a beautiful crust that complements its rich flavor. Another highlight of our meal was the rabbit, which Chef Jacqueline prepares with such finesse. Tender and succulent, the rabbit is seasoned exquisitely. In addition to the exceptional food, the welcoming atmosphere and attentive s

A definite first for dining adventures. After leaving our original choice of dinig due to a gas leak, we arrive at Chez Jacqueline's and she loses power! But she says "cha i can cook in the dark, I make you something" We sat out on the side walk seating and she made us some super flavorful crab cakes with BBQ shrimp, a loaf of French bread, butter and salads! Great meal! Paid with venmo. Well worth it. She is a jewel!

Do yourself a favor and eat at Chez Jacqueline! What an outstanding experience!! The food was outstanding, the service superb and the best part was Jacqueline, the chef. 81 years old and still cooking. She is a testament to time honored traditions when it comes to cooking incredible Southern Louisiana French cuisine. She took her time to come out from the kitchen to greet and talk with every guest. It was a truly wonderful experience that we highly recommend everyone go and enjoy. Be sure to bring cash (or Venmo) as credit cards are not accepted.

The owner is wonderful, friendly and kind. Her son is as well. This is a relaxed dining experience. The food is amazing! Try the escargot, you will not be disappointed. The fresh baked bread that comes with your meal is so yummy! We found this place by accident a few months ago and then intentionally found it again yesterday. The owner speaks French too 😊
