Reviews for The Bower in New Orleans, LA
One of the best restaurants I have ever been to. We are from out of town and went here because it was nearby and on a list for... having great cocktails, but the food was just as incredible. We got the bone marrow, burrata, and potatoes small plates whichwere all amazing and then the chicken dish? my boyfriend could not stop raving about it. All the portions were pretty sizableand reasonably priced. Ambiance both inside and outside was lovely and quiet, and the servers were wonderful. We?d go back in aheartbeat! Read more
My husband and I have been going to the Bower for a while now. We love everything about it: the food, drinks, service,... atmosphere, etc. My cousin came to town with his wife and two baby children. I wanted to take them to our favorite places inNOLA, so of course we made a reservation at the Bower. We arrived at our reservation time and our table was not quite ready. Thestaff gave us a free round of drinks since they were a few minutes late, which was so generous! We were still sat withinminutes. I hadn?t really thought ahead about the restaurant not really being a ?child friendly? establishment, but the staffwent above and beyond to serve the two babies with us. Our server drew, by hand, pictures of a rabbit for the kids to color.Whenever one of the babies needed to be changed, my cousin was escorted to a private bathroom to be able to change her (no babychanging station in the ?Public? restrooms). I?m blown away by the above and beyond service we received tonight. Thank you formaking my visitors? experience so wonderful! Read more
We went there for Happy Hour and it was pretty good ! We had some wine and appetizers and it was delicious !
Amazing cauliflower plate, great staff and a small but great garden out back. Walked in and were granted a great... table. Interesting cocktails and food to share. Read more
It's debatable whether I've had a better meal... Like, ever. Absolutely everything about this place was perfect. I always say... "oh I'll be sure to come visit this restaurant again next time I'm in town" but I might actually plan another trip here aroundthis restaurant alone. I was mad I couldn't get all the entrees. My group and I got short ribs, pappardelle, crawfish pasta,scallops, basil pasta, and everyone loved absolutely everything. I've never had better short ribs, and one of my companions saidit was the best meal of his trip. Even before we got there, we had to increase our reservation and they accommodated us hasslefree, the service was great, the ambiance is great. This is such a special place and I hope it sticks around for a long longtime. I need to try everything else on the menu!! Read more
It was an amazing place to spend our last night in New Orleans! The food and drinks were amazing. Our waiter Tony was on the... money with his recommendations! Read more
Went to the Bower for Coolinary and got these amazing 3-courses for $50. I had the risotto, red pepper spaghetti, and flourless... chocolate torte. All three courses were absolutely delicious. The vibe is very "California" -- very young/cool/IG vibes. Thisdoesn't feel like a nola/Louisiana restaurant at all, but sometimes it's nice for a change. Regardless, the food was very good.

I enjoyed Bower. The Cauliflower dish was absolutely delicious!! The pasta dish was just okay for me. It had a very mild flavor.... The one challenge to know is that they don't split checks. They have a minimum of four orders to a card. Makes it a bitchallenging depending on who you're dining with. Otherwise, we had a really good experience. Read more
