"Ambiance was disappointing- banquettes were nice, but overall, it's a big room open to the spectacular lobby, but room doesn't have a great feel.
Had a wonderful fois gras appetizer, delicious but overdressed fennel/lardons/poached egg salad and good main courses. Best atmosphere was in the adjoining Sazerac bar which has amazing, pricey cocktails. The lobby of this hotel at night is glittering spectacular art deco- a must to see."

"They have a new executive Chef and the menu is wonderful. I sat next to Charlene and David (a local couple) that frequent the restaurant. They were also very pleased with the new menu.
I'm an ex-saute cook for The Marriott and self proclaimed foodie. I feel I have a fairly good grasp of fine cuisine and this was spot on."

"I've been to the sazerac several times and I've enjoyed it every time. They have a new chef and a new menu..I was disappointed at first because I really liked the old menu and went there for some if my favorites! The new chef and menu didn't disappoint though, the food was very good, I definitely recommend giving it a try."

"There is no where in NOLA that is more beautiful decorated for the holidays than the historic Roosevelt Hotel. We were thrilled to be able to get a reservation here for New Year's Eve. The pre-fixe menu was fabulous with an escargot appetizer and lovely crab and anchovy salad to start. Soups were exceptional. I had the fish, my husband a steak. Both were perfectly cooked, delicate in flavor and presented beautifully. Nice wine options by the glass were available and paired well with each selection. Service was spotty. For instance, no bread was delivered to us until well into our salads while other tables received it as soon as they were seated. Ambiance was lovely and quiet in the dining area. Bar was more lively. Pre-fixe was a great deal"
