Loved our meal!! Gluten free fried seafood combo, and gluten free fried artichokes with marinara - all tasty, amazing!! Even better, after being my messy self our waitress offered me the use of her Tide to Go stick, amazing service. I love this place!
We wanted Fabulous local food and Sylvain’s did not disappoint! We had the Pappardelle Bolognese and Striped Bass which were both delicious, we also had the Fried Cauliflower which was a wonderful surprise!! Our server Chris was knowledgeable, efficient, and friendly. They were able to accommodate my gluten free restrictions, including dessert…a coconut crème brûlée! The ambiance was intimate and beautiful, we loved everything about this restaurant and highly recommend it!

My husband ordered a cup of gumbo and the combination platter. He bit into shell fragments twice. The bread was not very flavorful. To top it off he ended up with severe food poisoning.
I’m celiac and ordered jambalaya from the gluten free menu and also ended up with diarrhea.
Didn’t make a great impression seeing that it was our first time in Louisiana.
We went here specifically for gluten free food. The owner was there and super friendly. We ordered gluten free fried green tomatoes, shrimp, crayfish, catfish, pickles, and fries. The coating/breading was light and airy.
We were the only ones in the restaurant. It was a little awkward, quiet, and dark.
waiter was phenomenal with dietary restrictions and went above & beyond to make my partner and i feel welcome! (dairy free and gluten free). we had the jambalaya (GF, DF) (4/5) and the rice and beans (GF) (4/5) and the flight lemonade drinks (2.5/5). the potato salad and the appetizer sausage was SOOO delicious. overall awesome atmosphere, people & food. worth the long line outside ! (and super affordable)
I placed a take-out order for gluten-free pad thai. When I arrived, the system wasn't working properly and they had not received my order. The host took my order and apologized. It was ready in about 5 minutes, which was incredibly quick. The flavors were robust and very authentic. Thanks for the great food, service, and gluten-free options!
DID ANYONE SAY, LOUISIANA SPECIAL?
If you are ever lucky to experience New Orleans, you MUST try jambalaya and gumbo with a side of oysters of course. Jambalaya is by far my favorite because growing up in a first-generation filipino American household rice was a big part of the culture and gave me much comfort. The dish incorporate Cajun flavors and will surely make you full.
At New Orleans Creole Cookery, you will be wow'd by more than the building, but by the level of service they provide. The staff is extremely attentive and the jambalaya is the bees knees. I could eat their jambalaya everyday - the rice is perfectly cooked and the chicken is so tender and moist.
Personally for me, I'm not a big fan of gumbo. Thick soups are not my favorite but nonetheless, the flavors are still bold.
And lastly, I have never enjoyed oysters. But something told me to give this one a try and I am glad I did. There was ZERO hint of the ocean and salt water scent that oysters usually have. In fact, it wasn't salty at all. Instead it was drenched in garlic and cheese - how could this not be the best oyster ever? Only thing it was missing was bread crumbs but, I understand the hesitation with those who cannot have gluten. Still, I would definitely eat this oyster again and again.
Thank you for the hospitality!
Not my first time & definitely won't be my last. This time we went because they have started a Saturday "Bottoms Up Brunch", which is the same great food & drinks with the added bonus of one of New Orleans' best burlesque performers, Bella Blue, doing a pole/burlesque performance throughout the restaurant. It was an absolute blast and something very unique. I had the bloody Maria with mezcal - the best Tajin rim I've ever tasted. Apparently the chef's get the chamoy from the same Mexican outdoor market in Texas whenever they're traveling through and it's insanely good. My friend got one of the mocktails and it was also very good. Refreshing with great layers of flavor rarely found in an N/A option.
And on to the next level of how Palm & Pine always gets it right. Between the two of us we have some pretty restrictive dietary needs. I choose a veggie heavy pescatarian diet. My friend has an autoimmune disease that flares up from a long list of things, the two worst being dairy & gluten. Next time you go to a restaurant see if you can find something to eat that doesn't have dairy, gluten, or meat in it...especially in New Orleans...go ahead...I'll wait...no I won't! I'll starve before you find me something. They have quite a few delicious vegetarian & seafood options but no dairy & no gluten together is tough. Our server happened to be the manager, Monica. Not only did she check multiple times with the chef for ingredients but the kitchen was able to swap out a side on her entree to get her something she loved and worked with her restrictions, all while being extremely kind and lovely about it all. All of this with what is supposed to be a pre-fixe menu, which they absolutely didn't have to do. I couldn't tell you the number of times my friend has be told elsewhere "no we can't change anything" and she'll just pick around it or leave off half the items in the dish, which she's used to doing and offered multiple times to do to not make it a hassle for the kitchen. The folks at Palm & Pine just took it in stride and went above and beyond expectations.
Top notch in all categories. Wish I had taken pics but was too busy enjoying the food, drinks, & people.
I came to New Orleans for my bachelorette party and my group decided to eat here. My sister and I both have a severe gluten allergy and it is hard enough to eat anywhere in the city. We both opted for salads to be safe. I asked my waiter if there were croutons on the salad and they replied no. He then brought both of our salads out full of croutons. I sent it back to be remade and reiterated that we have an allergy. The kitchen staff then proceeded to pick off the croutons on the salad instead of remaking it and sent it back to us. We had many bites before digging to the bottom and realizing it was full of croutons still. The service was slow, and my waiter didn’t care about our food requests. The manager did comp the meal for us but the potential of us ending up in the hospital due to an allergic reaction was unacceptable. The waiter then proceeded to joke with us about it on the way out. He should be fired. TRAIN YOUR STAFF TO BE MORE VIGILANT ABOUT FOOD ALLERGIES. THEY ARE SERIOUS FOR SOME PEOPLE AND COULD KILL THEM.
My only complaint is that I didn't find this place on my first day here. The staff is incredibly friendly. The breakfast buffet is beyond delicious. Perfect corn bread (gluten free!) and the grits are creamy and so so good.
A weird, fantastic restaurant with a solid bar. The food was incredible (if there's duck, eat the duck, trust me) and the house cocktails are delicious. I had a blackberry basil mojito that was out of this world. Desserts and brunch are the best here, though -- go for the grilled grapefruit or the creme brulee. You won't be disappointed. Super easy to eat gluten free, too. Not cheap, but worth it. And it's adorably goth-lite.
Our waitress was Haley and she was the most sweet person ever. She checked in with us and even gave me salt when she saw me looking for it! As someone who cannot eat gluten she walked me through what is gluten free and it made the experience so fun. I recommend trying this restaurant if you are near, we will be returning.
We came after a day of shopping across the street and had a wonderful lunch. It’s such a cool spot with updated fixtures while keeping the historic vibe. My sister-in-law is picky (and gluten-free) but couldn’t stop talking about the place! They serve royal red shrimp (which is a hard find). We will be back! It also could be an awesome date spot for drinks and dinner.
I'm gluten allergic and our server Mary was not only a joy but super knowledgeable about gluten-free. Food was outstanding and the ambience is gorgeous. Thank you Mary and original Maspero's for an amazing experience! We'll be back!!!
Celiac friendly
