Tableau by Dickie Brennan & Co.

We chose this restaurant to celebrate a special moment together, as it appeared to be a fancy, upscale, and high-end place. The atmosphere and presentation suggested a premium dining experience, and because it was a celebration, we were happy to order some of the more expensive items on the menu. Unfortunately, our overall experience was quite disappointing. For our main courses, we ordered the chicken dish and the lamb. Neither of us enjoyed them at all. We are true food lovers and very open to different cuisines and flavors, and we are definitely not picky eaters. That said, the taste of the chicken was especially surprising—in a negative way.

Was sadly disappointed with the food here. The crab claws were too sweet and you get hardly any for the steep price point. The fries that came with the mussels were inedible from too much salt, and they overdid the pepper in the broth, it’s all my partner could taste. My duck was good, but better mushrooms should have been used for the risotto.

Definitely recommend!! We had Jessica as our server and she went above and beyond for us! She made my 30th birthday amazing! The food and the drinks were delicious!

Tableau felt welcoming and fun, also with the excellent live music. The duck and andouille gumbo was rich and comforting - super flavorful, like real New Orleans comfort food. Shrimp and grits hit the spot, with tender shrimp, smoky sausage, creamy grits and tasty garlic chips. Every bite felt like a treat and honestly made the whole meal feel special and laid-back at the same time.

This was easily one of my favorite dining experiences in New Orleans. The food was delicious, and our server, Jessica, went above and beyond to make lunch truly memorable. I can’t wait to come back next time I’m in town!
