We arrived at, Galatorie’s for lunch at 11:25 for 11:30 reservation on Wednesday December 27th. Galatorie’s opens at 11 30 and there was a long line of people waiting down this sidewalk to enter. As we waited in-line, large parties were being seated. People associated with these large groups pushed through the line to be seated with these parties. This was irritating. There must be a better way to seat the large parties and not have the rest of the people waiting to be seated jostled and moved out of the way. We were seated relatively quickly. As many reviews have pointed out the place is noisy once it becomes crowded. The main dining room has green wall paper with gold fleur-de-lis at the upper 1/3 of the room, white painted wood which contain mirrors as the middle third and dark wood paneling as the lower third. There are golden coat hooks above the mirrors around the room. The tables had white tablecloths and hair pin style chairs. The waiters were dressed in black suits. This cooks come by dressed in chef’s whites. The tableware is standard restaurant supply. There was a water containing pitcher on each table which is nice touch. A jacket is required for a male guest. There is a selection jackets available if you do not have one on your person when you arrive. As we were seated we were given menus and a cocktail list. We were asked about our preferences for water. After the water arrived, we are asked if we would like a cocktail or other beverage. I ordered iced tea. The tea was very good. Bread was delivered to the table. Red was a small French roll which was good. For appetizers we ordered Foie Gras and Sweetbreads. The sweetbreads were cooked well. The lemon caper beurre blanc added a nice acidotic note. The dish was a success. The Hudson Valley foie gras with pain perdu, cane syrup gastrique, apricot chutney was good except for the foie gras which was cool. It was seared well. It seems that after being cooked it was allowed to sit before being delivered to the table. This was a disappointment. I also ordered a bowl of the Duck and Andouille Gumbo. I was brought a cup of the gumbo. The cup sized serving is what a lot of other restaurants in New Orleans would serve as a bowl. The dark roux was very well done and delicious. The gumbo was very good and was the high point of the meal. My wife had the Bouillabaisse and I had the Crab Yvonne as our main courses. The bouillabaisse had all the seafood listed (jumbo lump crab, shrimp, oysters, gulf fish, saffron shellfish stock) but the saffron was muted, the stock did not have much flavor and the seafood was overcooked. The Crab Yvonne contained jumbo lump crab, artichoke hearts, mushrooms, green onions, meuniére sauce and was delicious. It however is a one-note dish and needs to have something to eat with it to allow the flavor to continue to be delicious. It came with no accompaniments to eat with it. There was bread on the table which did help. A side dish or a starch would make this a better dish to eat. I had not eaten this discharge before and did not know there needed to be something extremity eat with it. There were side dishes available to order. During our meal another older waiter brought us the wrong food. He tried to deliver Eggs Sardou and an omelet. The omelet looked over cooked. The Eggs Sardou looked and smelled fine. We informed him we did not order this food. He looked at his waiter’s pad and delivered the food to the next table. He then came back in asked what we wanted to order. We explained we have already ordered with a different waiter and he stated he was not aware that. He looked a little befuddled. He left in within a few minutes or main courses did arrive. The menu leans towards seafood with lump crab meat being offered on multiple salads, appetizers, main courses and as a garnish. The wine cyst contains a good selection of wines by the glass which seem reasonably priced and an extensive expensive when list. The cocktail prices were average. The question at the end of any review is would you returned for another meal. The answer is I would return to Galatorie’s to dine again in the future
