Mr. B's is back having been completely redone after Katrina and the food is better than ever.

The service is excellent as it was before Katrina. The wait staff are very helpful with wine selections, which having been mostly destroyed are now being built up again and eventually the cellar will be as good as ever. I had the 5 course tale of the cocktail dinner and each course out-did the previous one. I went back a few days later and had a truly wonderful veal chop. This is a don't-miss establishment

I did not have a bad meal in New Orleans, and this restaurant was no exception. We had a large party, but we were seated easily because we made reservations. Our waiter was very good and attentive. I had the filet mignon, and it was tendered and cooked to perfection. Dessert is a must! The bread pudding was voted to be the best dessert ordered. Make sure you try their barbequed shrimp too.

A very popular restaurant famous for its Creole cuisine. Once you're seated, the service is excellent and the food worth waiting for. Telephone reservations are not accepted, so when you check in, you may have to wait up to an hour for a table, but at least you can leave your name and either sit at the bar or even visit the local shops that stay open very late.

I went to Mr. B's after a friend invited me to dinner. For the money, I thought it was just OK and that it could have been better.

Mr. B's is part of the Brennan empire. The family has numerous (and famous) restaurants throught the city. My friend RAVED about their jambalaya pasta. To me, it was just plain oily and not that spicy. Others at our table liked their food. If you want true cajun food, you'll want to try elsewhere.

The atmosphere wasn't bad but it reminded me of a fern bar. If you're looking for cajun or funky atmosphere -- this is not the place. There seemed to be a number of business dinners while we were there.

Again, perhaps Mr. B (or I) were having an off night. But then, my friend raved about Cafe Pontalba, which I didn't like either.

The whole dining experience was wonderful. In a town full of food, this restaurant definitely stands out. The wait was rather lengthy, but it was well worth it. Conveniently, there are several pubs in the immediate area where you can go to wait until they are ready to seat you in Mr. B's. Run by the famous Brennan Family, the restaurant is quite a mixture of food styles. It is advertised as "Creole Cuisine", but is so much more. The atmosphere was very lively and fun. When we were there a live pianist was on the premises. Jazz tunes filled the air and mixed with the wonderul aromas of fine cuisine.
