Chais Delachaise - Restaurant in New Orleans - 7708 Maple St, USA

This restaurant got us to leave another one to come back…. We arrived in New Orleans. A friend of a friend recommended this place. It was near our Airbnb and so we thought we’d give it a try. We are so incredibly glad we did. The first night we got the chef’s salad, salmon deviled eggs, fries and octopus. The second night we came to eat, we reordered the chefs salad and tried the pork noodle dish with truffle cream sauce. Everything was spectacular. Special shout out to the chefs salad Dijon mustard dressing, the pickled veggies and the octopus! The food was flavorful, beautifully presented and totally worth the price. We also got amazing drinks (please try the she left me one read!) and wine (the Provence Rose they had was top notch). I’ve talked a ton about the food but I can’t forgot the service. Sarah was our amazing server both nights. She was charismatic, had great taste in food (even recommended an amazing breakfast place for us) and simply entertaining. We also had the pleasure of talking with Lindy…another amazing server. Overall, this restaurant is delicious. It’s a must try. The porch dining, the ambiance, the food and the drinks are perfect. I’m sad that we are leaving tomorrow and can’t return for a third night.

Honestly the beignet dessert was a highlight! The most light, airy, and fluffy beignets and when paired with the mouse- delightful! I love deviled eggs and salmon but this smoked salmon deviled eggs appetizer did not do it for me- too fishy so I wouldn’t recommend that. Although the french fries were great with the aioli, the peanut sauce was interesting. Not sure it fully worked but an interesting experience. The veggie risotto was satisfying but honestly the dessert is the real reason I’m going with 5/5. Also our server was extremely sweet!

The restaurant itself has a great vibe and our sever was very friendly. Unfortunately there were a large number of items on the already small menu that were no longer available (7pm dinner on a Saturday). It took foreeeeeeveer for our food to come out and we all agreed that our main dishes were just okay and nothing we’d order again. We also had another group of friends coincidentally there for dinner at the same time and they had similar feedback afterwards. I could see it being a fun place for a happy hour to enjoy the patio and fries but wouldn’t come back for dinner.

Came for happy hour stayed for dinner. You will love this place!!! Pomme Frites, great wine, deviled eggs, charcuterie and pasta. Presentation was very artistic and appealing throughout. Relaxed on the front porch and enjoyed phenomenal service from an engaging staff. Very extensive wine list. This will be our go to wine bar in one of our favorite neighborhoods in NOLA.

Cute little gem! Service is good. Menu has a variety. Croquet Monsieur was excellent! Lots of cheese! Salad was amazing, lots of different ingredients. Goose fat fries taste like Paris!

If you are looking for some of the best French cuisine in New Orleans, you’ll find it at Chais Delachaise! It was so good that we came back to NOLA the next weekend to enjoy another meal there. We weren’t disappointed! Best of all, we didn’t have to stand in long lines. It’s a special place…

Dog friendly patio ! They even brought my dog an extra large biscuit and water dish - as if he was served his own lunch with ours. Too cute! The salad ‘Chef’s Choice’ was amazing. The muscles and grilled cheese were also enjoyed at the table.

I went to this place with a big group on a Sunday night. It was empty to be expected. I thought the drinks were great, my mojito was one of the best I've had in the city. However, I thought the food was very average. The menu is not too big so I was able to try a bit of everything and to be honest each dish was a bit disappointing. I ordered the pasta with pork in white sauce. The pasta was rich and flavorful however the pork was dry and bland. The shrimp risotto was again okay, the shrimp were not cooked particularly well, a bit chewy if you ask me. The mussels were well cooked and seasoned but definitely not spectacular. I do appreciate the prices, much fairer than similar restaurants in this area, however, after living in New Orleans for a few years I can safely say that there are many better choices for an upscale dinner even if you're forced to spend a few more dollars. I will however be back for the drinks, particularly for happy hour from 3-5 on Wednesday-Sunday.
