Longway Tavern

Just found this place and its my new favorite spot! The savory donut holes absolutely blew my mind and their upside down ice cream cone for dessert was playful and perfect. Staff was attentive and kind. We dined outside and it began to drizzle, staff hurriedly adjusted the umbrellas for us without us asking and we had the perfect New Orleans evening. Their cocktails are also incredible!

Loooooooved our dinner at Longway Tavern. We were sorely tempted to order everything ($199) but our eyes were bigger than our stomachs. We opted to split three dishes and a dessert. Last night we went to Longway Tavern on Toulouse near Royal in New Orleans before a show. Everything was delicious! The sazerac was small but delicious. Fried Squash with BPK wing powder + ranch was spicy but mellowed out by the tangy ranch. Home Fries with pork belly, creme fraiche, caramelized onion, chives, and caviar was mindblowing. The English Peas with cauliflower cream, country ham, and crumbs was creamy and fresh. But the star of the night was the Corn Cake with fresh apples + preserves, milk + honey panna cotta, marcona almond + pistachio. Absolutely amazing. Service was great, albeit slow (95 minutes). Next time we will plan accordingly!

Incredible food, great service, beautiful indoor and outdoor seating in one of the oldest buildings in one of the loveliest, oldest, and well-preserved sections of the French Quarter...it is refreshing for a local who normally avoids that part of town (thank you, Bourbon Street, just wayyy over drunken street brawls) and definitely has that refined, historical feeling and beauty that made the Quarter a perennial destination long before breasts, beads, and frat dudes rolled in. This place is worth frequenting often, and as a longtime resident of this city, I don't say that often.

Firstly we wanted to check Sylvain but the kitchen was closed at that time. the receptionist told us the chef went to Longway Tavern. That’s how we came here. Every dish on the menu we tried is mind blowing. They use spices from all over the world and combination of ingredients out of our imagination to create dishes. We came back again the next day - twice in our only two-day stay. Dishes are not big, shareable size and delicately arranged, pairing with their abundant drinks, definitely a must have! Recommend you all go before it’s getting too hot to book. $199 for one of everything on the menu.
