Outstanding GLUTEN-FREE fried chicken and salt and vinegar string fries. We sat ourselves in the semi-enclosed private room on the second floor, which was comfortable, allowed us to hear the live music and talk comfortably with one another. The cocktails were delightful and interesting!
I go here several times a week. Chili Avocado Toast on GF bread is a go to. Vegan scramble is great, too. Don’t miss out on the dirty lemonade! This is a great little local cafe with gf options available. I don’t have such a severe issue that I need to worry about cross contamination, so I can’t say that it’s celiac safe, but it works for me!
Bywater Bakery made the cakes for our wedding, and they were outstanding. We had a traditional Chantilly cake and a chocolate Chantilly cake with strawberries, both of which were delicious. The owner, Chaya, sat with us herself to design the cake and made us feel right at home in the bakery. They also made sure to add gluten free and vegan cupcakes for our guests with dietary restrictions. If you're looking for an amazing cake and want to support a great local business, definitely go to Bywater.
I LOVE this restaurant! 😋 Most delicious gluten free fried catfish I've ever had. Cheese grits on point. Praline bacon 🥓 was divine. Service was impeccable. The restaurant has the perfect NOLA atmosphere and there's lots of cute things to walk to after your meal. I went there twice in two days because I loved it so much. In fact, I smuggled my leftover catfish back on the airplane ✈️ home because it was too good to waste! I will be back anytime I'm in New Orleans, bet.
We held our wedding Rehearsal Dinner at the Country Club, it was an incredible experience! Heather and her team created such a special and memorable experience for us.
First and foremost, the food was impeccable. So incredibly delicious! We heard nothing but rave reviews from our guests, it was quite possibly the best salmon I’ve ever had, seriously. We had several friends who are vegan and gluten free, The Country Club provided us with a beautiful menu that had delicious options for everyone, no matter their dietary restrictions.
We decided to do all our speeches at the rehearsal dinner rather than at the wedding. The private rooms at The Country Club are so beautiful and created the ideal, intimate atmosphere we were wanting.
It was so great communicating with Heather. Unlike the *many* emails I had with other venues around the city, Heather called me and listened to our priorities and budget, and within minutes shared a delicious and thoughtful menu that worked within our price range. She walked us through the options for the different rooms and beverage options, and had no problem adjusting when we needed to add more people. Her team was very attentive during the dinner. Even though I made a mistake on ordering, the staff was quick to resolve it without issue.
It was such a beautiful night, we couldn’t have asked for anything more and are so grateful to have had such a special event at The Country Club.
