I ate there on a slow sunday evening and was seated in a tiny table in the corner of an empty room. The tables next to us were "reserved" but never seated, while i was sharing a three coarse meal at what looked like a cocktail table. I did not even wait for the desert included in my meal because the previous courses were average and mostly based with the same bland roux. The" Taste of New Orleans" special is the last thing i would recomend, coming from a local. There are too many other great ,locally owned resturants I would prefer over this one.
Pros: The service was good.
Cons: The food was underwhelming and over priced.

We went to Upperline for Valentine's Day and we were not disappointed. The turtle soup was excellent, the duck was succulent and delicious and the dessert was heavenly. If you are looking for a cozy atmosphere and a different twist on the New Orleans style cuisine, you won't be disappointed!

I researched restaurants in NOLA and made sure we hit some of the best .. Bayonna, Peristyle, etc. Upperline was a bit disappointing. The high point was the Owner, JoAnne who stopped by our table and chatted with us and made us feel totally welcome ... she is delightful. Our waiter was new and there were rough edges and the food was good but not great .. we ordered the wine with each course and it came much slower than the food. The signature duck was so so .. dry and old tasting the sauce just tasted like peach preserves. The gumbo and turtle soup were also not the best I tasted in NOLA. Our favorite dish was the pecan pie ... it was SUPERB. My husband was very happy so perhaps I just ordered the wrong menu (the Lousiana Tasting Menu)
