Restaurant August - New Orleans

This place is amazing! I travel all over the country and this is one of the best meals I have ever had. The staff was awesome. Specifically Nick, the bartender. His service was above and beyond. The food was perfectly prepared and the flavors were better than I had expected. I plan to be a regular any time I come into New Orleans.

August is one of my favorite restaurants in NOLA. The dining room is romantic, best for date night. Excellent service and great foods. Love the Louisiana flavor with a twist of contemporary French. A must try when you visit NOLA.

Very high end and classy. We were there on valentines, so they had set menu of $100pp. So with drinks and tips it is $250-$300 for a couple. Food was very good and high quality, portions are small as expected from such restaurant. Not sure it justifies the price though.

August gave us a wonderful Valentines dinner experience! Everything was delicious, the staff was friendly and very knowledgeable, and the atmosphere is warm and beautiful! I don?t think anything could top the crab and truffle gnocchi! Just superb. We are hoping to come back for a special occasion in the future.

August is a restaurant where you can have a good business dinner. It has esprit, charm and a good atmosphere. However, the food is more like 3.5 out of 5 stars. The appetizer to main course ratio doesn't fit at all. The appetizers start at about $20 the main courses are about $40. However, the appetizers are only a third of the main course sizes. The amuse was about the size of the appetizers, or are the appetizers more like the amuse sizes? The snapper in the main course is supposed to be one of the signature dishes. However, the combination of fish with shrimp and the hollandaise was not fitting. Maybe some vegetables are missing here. Maybe something refreshing green. Also, the hollandaise was very sour. The price was not worth the main course. Also, the arrangement was in contrast to the appetizer rather clumsy. While the appetizers looked like small works of art, the main courses were rather unsightly arranged. Service was okay. You could tell that the one waiter was new. It is always difficult when you prepare a drink and touch the garnish with your hands (coffee bean). Didn't Covid teach us anything about hygiene? Also, you should think about nicer water glasses in this etablissment. These are rather beer glasses. In comparison, wine glasses are more like decoration.
