MaMou

Small restaurant on Rampart Street on edge of the French Quarter. French not Cajun, despite the name, which apparently refers to the chef’s grandma, not the southeast Louisiana town. Small but delicious menu-quality over quantity! We had the braised celery hearts (good), salade maison (excellent), bread service (excellent), poisson a la florentine (excellent), and risotto (excellent). Tasty champagne and wines by the glass. Dessert was good, too. Efficient, attentive, professional servers. Definitely recommend and plan to return!

This was our last dinner in New Orleans and what a fantastic way to end our trip. Everything was delicious and the risotto was perfectly made. Allison was so attentive, she really went above and beyond to make sure we were happy. We can’t wait to come back. Thank you!!

Everything was incredible. I don't even know where to start! Our server Brian was super patient and helpful with me (not familiar with French cuisine) I don't like pretzels so wasn't sure about ordering the bread (the only kind they have). But I am so glad we did! Pictures of that and the Redfish!

We enjoyed the environment and service. One of the staffs was very good at describing (and selling us) the dishes. However, we tried three appetizers and one main course, all of which tasted unreasonably salty (and my taste is typically on the saltier side). As the first time customer there we were not sure whether this is a one-time miss or the dishes are always like this. The presentation was excellent, and I can imagine some of them being very good if not so salty. We did enjoyed the desserts (rice pudding and lemon Madeline) and the pretzel bread service.

Little French jam a bit far from the tourist area but a great french and creole cuisine mix. Huge selection of wines and a limited options of cocktails and menu. The food is excellently prepared and nicely arranged on the plate. It was a bit too noisy sometimes but excellent otherwise.
