Didn't have a reservation, but we were still able to get a small table by the bathroom that was very well worn. In the end we didn't care because we had some terrific food. Instead of having entrees, my husband and I ordered six appetizers. The star was the scallop stuffed artichokes. They melted in your mouth like butter! The... More

A white tablecloth restaurant. I don't know why it has 'club' in its name, historic? I particularly like the bar with its pelican motif, and you can eat there if you like. This time we ate in the restaurant, which was fine. I started with a Black Orchid cocktail, very good. The baked oysters first course had parmesan and something... More

Best food, Best service, Best overall experience we have had in New Orleans in many years. Rivals Commander's Palace as it was twenty years ago.

I admit that I wasn't madly tempted by the menu but I take it all back. The crawfish and mushroom ravioli was subtle but wonderful as was ducking three ways. My boyfriend had the scallop stuffed artichoke and the cioppino, both also very delicious, although the cioppinio had taken a bay leaf overdose, it still disappeared. I notice this characteristic...

As a local we all have our faves and usually stick to those 5-10 places around the city. Well at least I do, anyway. Dined at the Pelican Club years ago and although nice it didn't wow me. Several friends had told me it was now their favorite restaurant and had the opportunity to dine there on a Saturday before... More

Went as a work function so had to pick off menu. I had sautéed white fish with jalapeño hollandaise - a little spicy for me. Just not my favorite. Other co-workers got chicken with shrimp and steak and seemed to enjoy it. Dessert was bread pudding and everyone loved that. I personally wouldn't go back.

Best Gumbo tasted in New Orleans, good wine list. Main meals are very traditional, quality above average although not much that is delicate in either taste or presentation. Comparable with a good pub meal. Prices are reasonable if you are used to big city restaurants. Try to keep some room for dessert, not easy. Ask to be seated in the... More

Tried the Pelican Club last night after thinking about, but not, going there for years. It's right in the heart of the French Quarter - so convenient location after a "hard" (ha) day at Jazz Fest. We had the four course Prixe Fixe menu which was good value for what you got. I had the duck, my friends the cioppino... More

Not your typical New Orleans Dishes. The seafood martini is fabulous. Has crab, lobster and shrimp. The Duck three ways melts in your mouth. Service was also very good.
