If I could give this place negative stars I would give them a negative 100 they were thee worst experience in my FIRST TIME NOLA experience; let’s just say I did not feel any kind of southern hospitality in this place!!! RUDE RUDE AND MORE RUDE!! I wouldn’t even recommend this place to my worst enemy!!!! U did not make my NOLA experience anything to brag about!!!! Hands down the worst place in NOLA!! Not friendly @ all!!!! I waited for over 35 mins for ONE drink and I get it; it was Fat Tuesday, however the unfriendly bartender walked past me 4x I literally had to ask the two gentleman in front of me to order my drink with theirs and that was the only way I was even served! SMH yall should b ashamed of yourselves!!! I’ve worked in hospitality for over 20yrs I would NEVER EVER treat any guest the way I was treated!!!! Thank God for others places during my NOLA experience otherwise I wouldn’t even wanna return to NOLA in general!!! 👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎 Not sure if it was bcuz I was a woman?!?!?!?! 🧐🧐🧐🤨🤨🤨🤔🤔🤔

Anthony is a great bartender. He just started but he was so friendly and the best bartender we had all week. I showed him how to make a Wisconsin old fashion and he nailed it! Great place, excellent atmosphere

Bartenders were amazing!!! ‘‘Twas a quiet ish night but the vibe was right and bartender 1 made me feel at home. Later bartender 2 did as well, as did the male patrons for this queer femme. Bartender 1 knew I had work the next day and made sure my water was filled along with my G&T. 10/10

Shocked! Apparently once upon time this place had a vibe, had a sense of authenticity. Sadly it's lost it, totally. The staff didn't even know that once upon a time the Obituary Cocktail was created here. Bourbon street now seems to be a place for Tommy Tourists...
