Something Different

We went to Upperline for Valentine's Day and we were not disappointed. The turtle soup was excellent, the duck was succulent and delicious and the dessert was heavenly. If you are looking for a cozy atmosphere and a different twist on the New Orleans style cuisine, you won't be disappointed!

I researched restaurants in NOLA and made sure we hit some of the best .. Bayonna, Peristyle, etc. Upperline was a bit disappointing. The high point was the Owner, JoAnne who stopped by our table and chatted with us and made us feel totally welcome ... she is delightful. Our waiter was new and there were rough edges and the food was good but not great .. we ordered the wine with each course and it came much slower than the food. The signature duck was so so .. dry and old tasting the sauce just tasted like peach preserves. The gumbo and turtle soup were also not the best I tasted in NOLA. Our favorite dish was the pecan pie ... it was SUPERB. My husband was very happy so perhaps I just ordered the wrong menu (the Lousiana Tasting Menu)
- Pros: Welcoming Owner, Art Work, Pecan Pie
- Cons: Service uneven, Food did not delight

On our first trip to New Orleans, we had heard many great things about this restaurant, and we were not let down at all. we highly recommend making reservations before you get there. We were there during the Garlic Festival. My whole meal including dessert had garlic in it. The whole meal was magical and very romantic.
- Pros: Service, Wonderful Food, Romantic
