Restaurant Patois - New Orleans

I am a long time fan of this neighborhood restaurant. The food is creative and consistently excellent . The wine list is outstanding as well. The service is always superb. In particular both Ryan and Peter are professional, courteous and efficient. Patois accommodates both locals and tourists but is dominated by local diners. Its location, off the local tourist beaten path requires the savvy tourist to figure out that it is worth the trip. Having said all of this I must add that some sort of dress code would improve my dining experience. It is a fine dining restaurant and I would be grateful if the tourist clientele were offered attire guidelines.

Great neighborhood restaurant. Excellent gumbo,lamb ribs, redfish and steak. Caitlin, the hostess, always makes you feel special. Patois is one of our favorites

Service could have been better. Food was great! We celebrated my friend's brithday; it was so noisy, we couldn't even hear ourselves speaking.

The shrimp Louis is highly recommended and the quality is now consistent, I’m happy to report. I ordered the pasta with lobster— very rich and tasty and would also stand up well with shrimp or crab. The book choy looked delicious I always like to have a balanced meal that includes vegetables) but was sooooooo salty I couldn’t eat it. I can ALWAYS add salt but can’t take it out.

Charming restaurant. The happy hour is a great deal also. Everything we ate was delicious.
