Reviews for Curio in New Orleans, LA
I wanted to love this place! The food was just ok. For the fried green tomatoes it almost seems like they thought putting tons... of remoulade sauce on it would mask the fact that it was missing other flavors. The chicken and waffles we just as you expect. Ithink I thought the chicken would have more Nola spice to it. The crab cakes were good, and full of flavor. The service wasnice!y only complaint is I feel you don’t get the most of the bottomless mimosas unless you are sitting by the bar since ittook so long off then to get us refills. I’d definitely give this place another shot to try other things. Read more
Came here with my spouse and I for an afternoon drink and snack and was not disappointed. We were visiting NO and wanted to... experience all the cocktail scenery while in town. Friendly staff and quick service. I genuinely enjoyed the blue crab saladappetizer. It’s a cold and shareable dish, perfect for the day where we experience a scorching hot 35 degree celsiusweather! We tried six different cocktails here, safe to say, Curio knows their cocktails as all of them tasted amazing. Highlyrecommend this spot if you’re looking for a patio with a nice view of the French Quarters! Read more

?Follow CHASING SHOTS on IG? WOULD RECOMMEND: Went to Curio for my birthday diner while in New Orleans! First off, they greeted... us at the door with such high vibe energy, authentic and warm! I had explained we were early nearly 30 min and they said itwouldn’t be a problem they had the space and seated us immediately. Rochelle our waitress was efficient and thorough. She gaverecommendations which were spot on! The feel of the restaurant is a classy casual. Tables were spaced perfectly and the decorof the place is calming and has a Louisiana historical feel. Loved it and would recommend! Read more
Stopped in for a drink, a chat, a mood… The place is bright and energetic and pretty. Our drinks were lovely, we got the... “Mule in heat”, which was a mule with peppercorn and bay leaf syrup and so on. Our first impression of service was a littleskewed; I think we got our bartender on a bad day. The lady who picked up where she left off was wonderful and funny and helpfuland we never felt rushed. I like this place and I can’t speak for their food but I plan to return and watch people walk bywhile I drink yummy drinks. Thanks! Edit: We came back for the food the next evening after looking at the menu. The menucontent looks gorgeous, had to try it… It was a complete let down, it’s comical really. The food sounded like what could bejust the local creole southern New Orleans cuisine we’d been striking out on the entire time and it came out like frozendinners. Truly disappoint, withered, two dimensional, frozen shrimp, runny duck soup, NO crab in the crab cake, a bread cakefolks, entirely and notably underwhelming. I will say it over and over, I’d your job is food; it’s your only job! All youhave to do is make good food. This fell so short of that which we find more and more often these days. Read more
Stopped here for brunch after a long night of drinking. Service is impeccable. The food was fresh and drinks were strong. They... have some great creole options. Apparently they have got an award for best place to work 6 years running. You can tell theemployees enjoy it there. I was so hungover I couldn't eat much but it was delicious. I'll be back for dinner. Thank you. Read more
quality food, drinks and ambience. cleanest bathrooms on royal street that i’ve been in so far. i appreciate their investment... in art and a clean establishment. this is one of the best food / drink menu restaurant that is owned by the creole cuisinefranchise, and it’s obvious that they prioritize this place over the others; the employees actually look like their enjoyingworking for them. handicap accessible. good luck with parking.

The place was cute, the drinks were REALLY good. I'm fairly certain they were under staffed.. so the service wasn't great. The... food was just ok, my turkey panini was super salty. But the pesto sandwich was really good. So maybe it was just an off thing. Read more
