We enjoy Adolfo’s everytime we visit New Orleans from Canada. The food, atmosphere and service are always amazing! We miss it when we’re home! It’s also family friendly! We bring our 4 year old and he LOVES it! A MUST TRY when visiting NOLA Veal Ocean is life changing
DISAPPOINTING- I really wanted to like this place. The muscles appetizer was really, really salty and the "garlic bread" served with it looked and tasted like bad grocery store bread. It was cold, not toasted and slathered with oil and very little garlic. The pasta side had a pool of water in the bottom with little sauce. Finally, the fish was mushy and tasteless and just covered in sauce that was clearly premadeand slopped on. It was not like any "grouper" I've had before, and I've eaten a ton of grouper. Now for the service: After putting my name on the wait list, I was told about an hour to an hour and 15 minutes. No problem. We went downstairs and had a couple drinks while listening to the live music. After 80 minutes, I went back to check. She said, "Let me put a star next to your name so I know your here. There's a two top getting ready to leave (she pointed to the table) and you should get the next one in about 5 minutes. " Ok, great. Back downstairs. We waited about 10 minutes and saw other people go up and not come back down. I saw a couple go up and decided to go up after them just in case. Sure enough, I get there to see her seating them at the table she told me would be for me. Now I've been waiting almost 2 hours. When I approached her about it, to her credit, she said she would make it right. She went over to the couple and I can only assume, told them what happened and asked them to get up. That made for a very awkward walk, but she did make it right. Even so, it was not a good start to the experience. Overall, it was not worth the wait and the food was not good on many levels. The bartender and music downstairs were great.
I was not impressed with this place. My eggplant parm had 3 small thinly sliced pieces of eggplant & the noodles were a little too hard for 2 out of the 3 of us that had noodles. I was given quite a bit of noodles & my marinara sauce was quite watery. Overall, my dish lacked flavor. This place is super tiny and the waiter kept coughing (sometimes into his hand sometimes into the air) and then touching glasses, plates, etc. My husband had the flounder, it was flavorful & spicy.
Good restaurant to eat at at least once or to take friends who are visiting. Pricey to be a regular thing. Small cute upstairs space. We got there right at opening so there was no wait. We were a little rowdy and everyone was very nice. Our waiter Scotty really made the experience fun. He was the best waiter I've had anywhere in a long time. We all got the fresh fish with ocean sauce and it was divine. Amazing sauce! Salads were fresh and the mustard vinnagrate was really good.
The food and service tonight were horrible. The chef was angry and yelling at the staff. We got mussels and they tasted like dirty lake water. See picture, as they looked like it too. We asked our server to tell us more about them and he kept saying garlic and white wine. We had to flag the server down multiple times. They brought our sides before our appetizer. Just a crappy experience. Our third visit but definitely our last.
