If you want to feel like you're getting a bite to eat in the French Quarter without actually BEING in the French Quarter, you owe it to yourself to try Francois's Grill. The ambiance is great! Love how the ceiling fans resemble a deconstructed bourbon barrel! Such a great touch! They have a live jazz band every evening at 7pm and are open seven days each week, except during holidays. The staff is friendly and attentive! The food comes to your table fast, hot and delicious! The Bloody Marys are a GREAT way to start of your brunch! Such a great new restaurant in Perkins Rowe!!

The crab cake was fantastic. It is an appetizer but needs to be a dish by itself with a feta salad and bread. The lasagna was ok. My waitress was amazing!! So knowledgeable. I did not catch her name with a short blonde bob.

This place looks very fancy, and we wanted to try some nice Italian. It is not impressive, not even on Olive Garden level. They had a small but decent wine list, but no one knew where the wine was. Hopefully they improve their food and service to match the atmosphere and price point.

So much to say. Need to be efficient here. This place has no idea what it's supposed to be. Fine dining? WHY ARE YOUR SERVERS WEARING ADIDAS SOCCER JERSEYS. No drafts, sever said "Yeah, our beer selection sucks." Vinyl table cloths. $34 steak with Styrofoam to go boxes they hand you to box yourself. $18 glass of cab was open for at least 2 weeks. "Order up" bell in the kitchen ringing loudly over the sleepy jazz music. The food is mediocre at best and insanely over priced. The positive reviews are either from friends of owners or have likely never eaten at a decent restaurant in their lives. I could write a dissertation on how much of a flop this place is.

This restaurant is beautiful, clean, calm, and classic environment. Rachel was excellent; she was patient and kind. The food is delicious and have large portions. We had salmon and tuna entrees. I will definitely come back.

Great food and experience! The owner and his wife were very pleasant. The salmon salad and grilled vegetables were delicious. The jazz selection was equally as enjoyable. Nice outing for a date night.

We loved the atmosphere, the drinks, the staff, and the food! When we went, we started with a chardonnay and a Manhattan, then a salad with an awesome balsamic vinaigrette. We enjoyed the lasagna and the fish topped with crawfish. The vegetables were truly delicious. We hear that there will be a live jazz band weekend evenings. Our server was fantastic (absolutely), but we also had a couple other staff members stop by to see how we were doing. We loved it so much, we will make this our new habit!
