Recently in New Orleans, and I regret only getting to eat here once AND only sampling such a small part of the menu! But let me say – THE BEST RAW OYSTERS. We got the half dozen of the Shucker’s Choice, and I regret not ordering six dozen, lol. We sat at the bar and watched him shuck them, too. Probably the first time I haven’t ended up with a piece of shell in my mouth as well. Great mignonette with champagne vinegar. We also had the pork belly, but the oysters were the star of the show for us. We shall be back to NOLA and Le Chat Noir!

The best meal in Nola. Started with the bone marrow and bread which was delicious and popping with flavors. The scallop pasta was a signature dish and the best of all the dishes.

Le Chat Noir was the best food we’ve had during our stay in New Orleans. We’ve gotten so many recommendations but they did not hold a candle to this recommendation we received from locals. Enjoy the delicately crafted dishes and excellent service!

If you have one restaurant to try in New Orleans, this is the place. It may not be contemporary Cajun or Creole cuisine, but it’s damn good. The ideas are simple and dishes are straightforward with some interesting twists. Nothing was a random cacophony of flavors and colors. The carrots were definitely the star of the night, the chicken has perfectly crispy skin while being juicy and tender, oh, and the coffee… spectacular!

Fantastic restaurant. Beautiful, understated interior. Elegant but practical dishes. Bone marrow and terrine starter is a must. The chef clearly has a vision, I love when there’s a real sense of authorship to the dishes and the scope of the menu at a place. You will get that here!

If I had to name a 2022 favorite new restaurant, Le Chat Noir is it. I have been ~5 times this year and every time it is fabulous. The most recent visit may have been my favorite. They have a great oyster program, great cocktails, and great menu items. If you are a vegetarian, you’d love this place but you’ll love it just as much if not.

One of the best meals I have had in New Orleans, which say a lot. The staff catered to mine and my daughter’s dietary issues (both GF) and were extremely helpful. the restaurant is beautiful and the staff including the best dressed host I have ever met and our delightful server were fabulous. We had 4 courses, including oysters, which were fresh and delicious. Absolutely recommend the Pork & Beans (literally had dreams about them) as well as the Japanese Eggplant (the peppers!). All of the dishes were thoughtfully created with excellent food pairings. Wine and beverage recommendations were spot on as was the dessert. Looking forward to visiting New Orleans again, just to eat here.

We went for our wedding anniversary. The server was amazing, we followed his recommendations which is my favorite way to dine. They greeted us with champagne for our anniversary. I really enjoyed being able to watch the chef and kitchen prepare the food. It’s such a cool vibe and atmosphere. Convenient pay to park lot next door.
