Reviews for Gabrielle Restaurant in New Orleans, LA
A party of 3, we dined at Gabrielle's on 11/5. Food and wine were excellent but the service placed a damper on our enjoyment.... Our male waiter did not look happy approaching our table. Maybe by the way we were dressed, he anticipated a disappointing spendand tip. It all started with ordering drinks. We were interested in the beer on tap. I ordered my pint but my wife wanted totaste before ordering, a reasonable request. In a rather offensive tone, our waiter asked my wife which one she wanted to taste.As there were only 2 choices, a more professional approach would have been to volunteer a taste of both. But that was not to be.To the menu. We preferred to order appetizers first and then think a bit about the main course. But no, that was not to beeither. Our waiter made it clear that his chef did not permit such ordering. All at once or nothing. Regarding wine, I ordered aCUNE Rioja Gran Reserva and our waiter brought a white wine. When we wanted more bread I had to summon the bartender across thedining room because our waiter was nowhere to be seen. We rarely saw him. So there it is. An excellent restaurant for food anddrink but degraded by disappointing, snobbish, and unenthusiastic service. I hope it improves. We'll be back to try. Our billcame to $348.04 and we left a generous tip of $100. Read more
What a wonderful dinner! We came during duck fest so lots of duck themed dishes. However I am a vegetarian and the chef made me... the most unique vegetarian dish with zucchini and peaches. It was so delicious. Everyone loved their meal and our server Nelsonwas a true delight. I'm so thankful our tour guide Micky recommended this gem. Read more

What an incredible restaurant. I love the exterior vibe of the aesthetic. Inside, it felt very warm and cozy. Like your... favorite neighborhood spot. The food here is insane. Everything I ordered tasted so fresh and you can tell they have amazingcooks here because the food was prepared so well. Don’t skip desserts when you visit. If they have the white chocolate poundcake, you must order it. Read more
Gabrielle is one of my absolute favorite restaurants in the city. A must have whenever I am home visiting my family. Start with... the BBQ Shrimp Pie because it is LIFE!!! The double cut pork chop is like "butta". Gabrielle never disappoints and the serviceis always wonderful. Read more
The food was very yummy and delicious! Order the BBQ Shrimp pie! Very very yummy! I’m only rating 4/5 stars because we felt... obligated to order more, as my husband and I shared 4 courses to try as many things as possible. We also did not order alcoholas we do not drink so we ordered mocktails. We kind of felt like the staff were a bit condescending because we weren’t buyingmore Read more
This restaurant is incredible! This is a small, beautiful and quaint restaurant. We had the trout with crab enchilada, veal, and... lamb chops. Every item was perfect. The service from Nelson was superb! I highly recommend this place while in NOLA. Read more
