We had an absolutely wonderful experience at this restaurant! Gianni, the host, was incredibly polite, welcoming, and helpful. He went out of his way to help us find a beautiful spot in the restaurant, which made our experience even more special. It was truly an honor to meet Chef Wiley and have such a lovely conversation with her. Her desserts are absolutely irresistible, especially the brownies! And the food was simply incredible — honestly, it felt like a little piece of heaven. Our server, Cean, made our experience truly unforgettable with his wonderful service, great sense of humor, and beautiful smile. He made us feel so welcomed and taken care of throughout the entire evening. Thank you so much for such an amazing and memorable experience. We will definitely be coming back!
If you leave NOLA not having been to Delacroix, you’re missing out BIG time! Chef Wiley is an absolute stellar culinary mind, and so kind, to boot! Also - ask for Bri as your server. She is the sweetest, most attentive server you could ask for, without overdoing it. The house-made satsuma ice cream is to die for. I was a solo traveller this time but I will be bringing my partner back here! 😊
I was so impressed by this restaurant. The location on the river was perfect. The inside was beautiful and had great atmosphere. The service was amazing. April was our waitress. She was very pleasant and answered all of our questions. She was able to describe all the dishes and drinks perfectly. Everything we ordered was delicious and I can't wait to go back!
Their signature Ya Ya Mary cocktail pared with the raw oysters is perfect. My shrimp creole was delicious. This place is popular, very busy, reservations are recommended. I sat at the bar. My rice wasn't fully cooked in the shrimp creole, I assume because they were so busy, and my raw oysters came after my meal instead of before. It's fine with me, they were fresh shucking them, so it was worth the wait. I would go back.
We went there for Holiday lunch. Very busy and loud. Very nice upscale casual restaurant decorated for the holidays. Great view of the river. We had to wait 30 minutes to be seated even though we made reservation 2 months. ahead of time. Waiter was good. Blue Christmas cocktail quite yummy and potent! Chef Wiley came by each table to chat. (the other which shall not be named, only visited "select" tables) Drum almondine delicious and enough for two. Shrimp bisque delicious. Others had grilled Redfish and shrimp/oyster on bun. All enjoyed our entrees. Baked Bismarck- loved that meringue, cake and ice cream parts ok. Fun place. I recommend for a festive time.
