The Bower

Absolutely spectacular food; Chicken Parm and Osso Bucco in particular were incredible. Great Margaritas too! Staff were amazing, engaging, friendly and super helpful. Really cool location and environment. Would definitely return next time I am in NOLA.

It's debatable whether I've had a better meal... Like, ever. Absolutely everything about this place was perfect. I always say "oh I'll be sure to come visit this restaurant again next time I'm in town" but I might actually plan another trip here around this restaurant alone. I was mad I couldn't get all the entrees. My group and I got short ribs, pappardelle, crawfish pasta, scallops, basil pasta, and everyone loved absolutely everything. I've never had better short ribs, and one of my companions said it was the best meal of his trip. Even before we got there, we had to increase our reservation and they accommodated us hassle free, the service was great, the ambiance is great. This is such a special place and I hope it sticks around for a long long time. I need to try everything else on the menu!!

Very nice atmosphere. Food was top notch. I had the vacation to endor (drink) and it was deliciously balanced and boozy. I’m not sure if my waitress was new, but she seemed to be somewhat unfamiliar with the menu and had minimal recommendations when requested. The general manager, however, came over and was friendly, welcoming, professional, and had a wonderful recommendation for the basil pasta. Overall, would absolutely return and recommend giving this place a try. You will not be disappointed.

Oh my God!! So delicious!! We did the chef special and weren't disappointed at all!! Everything was like a symphony in my mouth!! The service was amazing. I wish I remembered the server's name, but she was so sweet. The amount of food I couldn't consume!! I tried hard, but it was worth the pain of trying to eat it all!! Chef well done sir!!

Excellent mixture of New American, Seafood and NOLA cuisine. The bar is quite nice and dining room was conducive for a large group to enjoy conversation. It is not a noisy place.

We had an excellent meal here consisting of spiced fried scallops, an excellent pasta dish, some delicious potatoes, a swordfish, and a wonderful chocolate dessert. I highly recommend it. Posting photos.

Stepping into The Bower is like entering a haven of sophisticated charm, the perfect backdrop for a memorable dining experience. The ambiance strikes a delightful balance, feeling both elegant and welcoming. However, the true highlight of the evening was undoubtedly our server, Elizabeth. Her attentiveness went beyond mere service; she was intuitive, offering insightful recommendations with genuine enthusiasm. Elizabeth’s warm professionalism and infectious charm truly elevated the entire experience, making us feel like valued guests. Honestly, her service was so impeccable, it almost overshadowed the anticipation for the delectable dishes to come (almost!). And those dishes? A testament to culinary artistry! Each bite at The Bower was a harmonious blend of fresh, high-quality ingredients, expertly prepared and beautifully presented. From the appetizers to the main courses, the food was simply outstanding, a clear indication of a kitchen dedicated to flavor and excellence. Combined with the expertly crafted drinks and the overall inviting atmosphere, The Bower offers a dining experience that is truly exceptional. If you're seeking a restaurant that delivers on both ambiance and exquisite cuisine, with service that shines as brightly as Elizabeth's smile, then The Bower is an absolute must-visit. Five stars, without a doubt!

I took my wife here for her birthday and they did not disappoint. We had the most amazing spread with almost everything on the menu and I couldn’t complain about a single thing! Everything was cooked to perfection and the staff were so impressive that we had to buy a round of beers for everyone. I’ll definitely be coming back when we’re back in town. In my opinion this restaurant is a winner!
