Briquette has become my go-to spot for finer dining in New Orleans.The service is just right: attentive but not smothering, friendly but not overly familiar, proper but not stuffy. The food is genuinely excellent.Slightly pretentious in a way that gives proper pomp and circumstance to the occasion without losing sight of the flavors that should take center stage. Speaking of flavor, I would be remiss if I didn't highlight the steak and scallops, the whole fish, and the amazing salads we enjoyed all week.My favorite item was the lump crab bisque, I could eat that every day and never get tired of such an exquisite dish. Fortunately for us, the food was not only delicious, it was also filling.This is because the dessert offerings are not up to par.My suggestion would be to abandon, "Our take on the classic..." and just make the classics the way people loved it and it became classic.I am speaking specifically about the bananas foster and the bread pudding.
We had Kevin as our waiter & he was spectacular.He recommended dishes & drinks for my husband that were great! (I have the pallette of a 6-yr-old, so I don't count, lol.) He loved the crab bisque, Bleu cheese salad with Dijon dressing, & the blackened red fish.I loved my pork chop.
My wife and I were in New Orleans for the Sugar Bowl. We were lucky enough to be walking down the street when one of your employees convinced us that the food was outstanding. The food indeed was absolutely amazing!! Our server/waiter Richenel made our experience so much more than just a meal. He was very personable and made our experience like no other. The food was outstanding and I am so happy that we ended up in your restaurant. Scott and Erica Jones Hook em
