Editorial Review for The Pelican Club – by Pableaux Johnson
The Scene
This secluded off-street bistro draws an enthusiastic mix of locals, business types and guests of nearby French Quarter hotels. Expect a study in contrasts. The beautifully renovated front bar and wood-paneled dining space set an intimate tone, while the expansive marble-floored rear rooms are active and convivial.
The Food
Louisiana seafood, served with a distinctive Asian twist, is the star. The dynamic chefs integrate Pacific influences on such dishes as a refreshingly light seafood fricassee and pot stickers plump with crawfish and shrimp. The inventive duckling entree features tender French-style confit, crisp-skinned slices of grilled breast and a savory mound of Chinese barbecue duck. Cap off your meal with a sinfully rich pecan pie--a la mode, of course.

Back room was very noisy. Wait staff was very professional, courteous and devoted to our needs. Food was very good and overall worth the money. This is not the place for a quiet, romantic evening.
Pros: Traditional New Orleans, noisy, robust, everyone engaging in conversation.
Cons: Noisy, not a very romantic type of setting if you are loking for that.

We were extremely happy with our dinning experience. We had a new young waiter that had a difficult time uncorking our bottle of wine but that was the worst we can say about the entire night of service from him. He was very attentive, knowledgeable and right on top of most everything. The food was outstanding and the wine pairing was terrific. The one and only complaint I have is that due to the fact that there was three large parties dinning in the same room it was extremely noisy! Noisy to the extent that you thought you were some kids bar or sports bar. The restaurant was conveniently located within walking distance from our hotel and there were a number of large conferences being held there at the Marriott and that might explain the large groups dinning there. Other than the noise, we couldn't find a thing that we'd change. The food was just delicious and outstanding. I would definitely return and try it again!
Pros: Great food and more than adequate service.
Cons: Extremely noisy the night we dined there.
