Irene's

Amazing food. Exemplary service. Perfectly made cocktails. Beautiful setting. We have been many times and never had anything that wasn’t delicious. Kelli our server was so great. As was the Legendary Mr Michael. He was even so kind as to show us the back courtyard. A lovely evening.

Irene’s is my favorite place for so many reasons so let’s break it down: 1. Food. It’s inexplicably good! Italian food at its best. Seafood perfection and the lamb chops are truly spectacular. Highly recommend the Meunière Amandine, Lamb A’la Provence, Duck St. Philip, the Italian Wedding Soup, and whatever is the Chef’s Special. Trust the waiters and they will not steer you wrong. 2. Service. Andrew was our waiter on this evening, but every time we have gone over the past few years, our servers are top tier. 3. Atmosphere. I love fine dining, but nothing too stuffy. This place blends warmth and elegance perfectly. The bar is gorgeous. You can eat outside when weather permits and every room has its unique character. On this evening we enjoyed the “St. Joseph” room. Next time in NOLA make a

Everything was wonderful! We had the Escargot, Duck, Lamb and Tiramisu. Andrew was one of the best servers I have ever had in a restaurant, and we will definitely be back next time we're in NOLA. We also met Sister Nicholas and she was lovely

First evening visiting New Orleans and was very pleased with how quickly we were seated with our awaiting reservation. Atmosphere was phenomenal! From the jazz to the chatter. Service was also busy but they took great care of my friend and myself. Food took some time, but worth the wait! Just wished they had some soft bread to keep us over while waiting. Otherwise the gratin and pasta were very well sauced! Delicious and creamy. Escargot was delightful and mixed well with the mushrooms and cream sauce!

This is another go to restaurant while visiting NOLA. We were a party of four and had several appetizers and main courses so we had a lot to evaluate. Nothing disappointed. Amazing food, good presentations, remarkable service and terrific ambiance. If the weather permits they have a wonderful walled patio at the rear that a perfect place for dining. Several different dining rooms each with a different character. Long bar that can accommodate late eaters and those that have no reservations. Reservations are really a must and there is only one street parking so better to walk or Urber. Overall, this was one of 5he best dining experiences in the city. We give it five google stars and the rare five clams on the coveted Five Quahog Rating Scale.
