Great setting, superb service, and delicious food and cocktails. Definitely return to this gem. We had walked by a couple days earlier and kept ruminating about going for lunch during our visit to Nola. Started with a stormy morning cocktail and went on from there. Stephen is an excellent server!
Our 1st night in NOLA, we stumbled upon Bayona while exploring the French Quarter and though we didn't have a reservation, they were able to accommodate us and we were seated quickly. (It was early, around 5pm on a Thurs) Everyone from the hostess to the wait staff were very friendly and informative. I had the scallops app and lamb entree, both were excellent. My husband had the sweetbreads and rabbit - which I tried - and they were also great. We were out in plenty of time to wander around before taking in a ghost tour. Husband and I both agree that this was our best meal in NOLA.
We had one of the best meals at Bayona's. Every single detail, from the servers to the appreciation of the dishes and selection of the wines. We will be back
This was hands down the best restaurant I ve ever been to in New Orleans! The chef did an incredible job with the flavors and presentation. They accommodated my vegetarian diet and the chef made me a personalized entree based off of my likes and dislikes!! I couldn t have asked for a better dinner and dining experience. And the staff was so kind and accommodating! I highly recommend Bayona!!
Great service and great food as usual. Restaurant was very comfortable. The sweetbreads are excellent as both appetizers and entree.
This is my favorite restaurant in the city. Lovely Creole cottage setting with a charming courtyard. Absolutely delicious menu with a reasonable diversity of options. Refined, excellent service. I've never had a less-than-wonderful experience in my many visits. This time, I had the quail salad and lamb loin and they were perfection. Thank you, Susan Spicer & team!
A restaurant with an excellent wine list, clearly a great sommelier abides here, and a changing menu that keeps Chef's Susan Spicer's flagship eatery going strong.
You can spend an afternoon schmoozing here with friends, relatives or business associates.
One of my best meals was a lunch I had with my spouse and his brother. We started off at 11 am and kept drinking and eating until it was 4:30 in the afternoon and lunch had been closed out! Lunch ends at 3.
They told us to take our time. We had the entire place to ourselves, tipped mightily and were quite tipsy as we'd gone through at least three bottles of wine by the time we left.
It was an event!
It's a place where strangers will share their food with you! Well, that's off limits for NOW, but the day shall return. Filled with camaraderie and warmth. Excellent servers and staff.
Great ambience. Excellent food. Turnover dessert was amazing
We celebrated our anniversary at Bayona and had a wonderful time. The food is incredible and the outdoor patio is beautiful at night. A great place if you are in town and want a memorable meal.
