Muriel's Jackson Square - Creole restaurant in New Orleans - 801 Chartres St, USA

This place is an institution, it is an experience, it is extraordinary. The food is extraordinary. The service is top tier. The atmosphere is wonderful. The building is gorgeous. The history is richer that the demi-glace. Probably the only pleasantly haunted building I've explored in New Orleans. Where the other ones are super creepy in their hidden haunts, this one is, well, pleasant. Maybe Pierre was simply in good humor while I was reclining in the seance room.

We celebrated our wedding anniversary here, and it was fantastic. All the food and drinks were amazing, and the staff was so friendly. At least 4 different people swung by our table to say Happy Anniversary. I wanted to have dinner with the ghost, but the table was already booked. Next time!

Very nice, cozy atmosphere. Beautiful old "Nawlins" architecture and decor. Service was excellent, friendly staff. The food also was outstanding. The shrimp and grits tasted very good. Double cut pork chop was moist, tasty and tender. The chocolate cake was incredible, but was more a piece of soft fudge than cake. Very impressed with the whole experience, will be back when I'm in town again.

We had such a great brunch! Jimmy was so personable and helpful. We had many connections. The food was amazing! We had the shrimp and grit and the duck hash. The flavor was incredible and everything was cooked perfectly. We will definitely be back for more!

Every-time we are in NOLA we head here and get drinks on the balcony. It’s beautiful and the live music from the square make it so special. Love the drinks and atmosphere.

Fantastic party venue! We had a large (200 guests) “second night” party after our wedding at Muriel’s. Theme was black tie masquerade-- and the venue was perfect! The multiple different rooms upstairs allowed us to have different foods and activities in different spaces. We had a room with DJ and dancing, a raw bar, a room with food stations, a piano bar room a la LaFitte’s, a room with fortune tellers and desserts (the aptly named Seance Room), a green fairy serving absinthe in the foyer, and of course the beautiful balcony overlooking Jackson Square! Such a beautiful, lush, and unique space that we really didn’t need any additional decor-- except a few beads on tables for our guest to share and wear! They were easy to work with, and Chef knocked it out of the park with awesome “heavy hors d’oeuvres,” including shrimp and goat cheese crepes, lamb lollipops, and even some vegan selections. Guests commented on how helpful, kind, and hospitable all the servers were. Would definitely recommend for any large gathering!

The hostess (Sandra) was so sweet today even though they were slammed- Mona was our server and was kind and attentive. The venue is beautiful, and the jazz band is wildly personable and fun. We’ve tried a handful of restaurants since arriving last week (all allegedly noteworthy) and Muriel’s clearly doesn’t need to coast on their historical venue alone- as many places do. All of our dishes were beautifully seasoned, and cooked to perfection. Difficult to achieve on assumably the busiest day of their week with a high volume of guests. I was deeply impressed and appreciative that Muriel’s back of house is able to maintain the consistency and quality of meal they presented to us. Had the pumpkin bisque and duck hash, and was offered a bite of the banana fosters French toast- all amazing and exceeding expectations. We will be returning either for cocktails- or again for a meal during our next trip. Thanks for a good time y’all ! EDIT: I went back for dinner the next evening without reservation. Jason & Patty were my servers and they were both wonderful/attentive, as expected. I had the turtle soup, shrimp and grits, bread pudding- and a sazerac. Again, all cooked and seasoned to perfection. Can’t wait to visit again !

Amazing food equivalent to many of the higher end place in NO, but without the price tag. Everything was absolutely delicious, and the experience for Sunday brunch was great. Servers were amazing but the white guy host with a twisted mustache had a seemingly terrible attitude. His overall attitude was poor after we requested a window table. I'd suspect his pet bird mightve died or he was having a bad day, but his attitude is the only thing keeping my experience there from being 5 stars. Best food ever during the stay and worst host experience.
