I’m from New Orleans and I know fine dining. This place defines it. Beautiful dining room. Classic French Cuisine, with a Mediterranean twist. Impeccable service. Well thought out wine list. Perfect martinis. But now? They’ve outdone themselves. Like I said I’m from NOLA, but I don’t like creme brûlée. Sorry I just don’t. Someone at my table ordered it. My jaw dropped. I tried it. I still don’t like it, I LOVE IT. This is a must try, it redefines a classic in the best way. I’ll not describe it, I’m not spoiling it for you. Try it, you’ll see what I mean. La Truffe is perfect from start to finish. They even let me make my own French 75’s. Thanks for everything y’all. See ya soon. 🍋

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Overall lovely. Bread does not live up to the standards. Service was outstanding. Ambience was subtle- calm. Most of them were in suites- not us. I must say- old fashion ed falls short by long way. Apperol tasted much better. I believe the catch of the day was cooked to perfection. Desserts were also great.

If you don't want to read the whole review, heres the short story...we spend over 500 dollars on dinner that was sub par. I took my wife here for our anniversary. When walking in, their atrium had a bunch of chairs and tables and other junk covered with sheets...weird but maybe they were renovating. The waiter didn't know how to pour a beer, which is pretty concerning, we called ahead for their "dover sole" which turned out to be basic fried fish... meh. We ordered several apps and main courses, none were worth the money. Their duck is excellent btw. Their fillet was cooked well as well. The waiters leave much to be desired for a "high end" restaurant. The overall experience for spending almost 600 dollars on a dinner was sad and pathetic. I was embarrassed to take my wife there and will never do it again.
