First time here, very nicely appointed, very attentive staff and excellent food at reasonable pricing. We recommend highly. I had a chicken dish with garlic and rosemary, my wife had shrimp and crawfish pasta. We had an eggplant app and the marinara sauce was perfect. Bread was fresh, waiter exceptional. Thanks.

I always see this place when I am in NO and staying by the airport. I wanted a quick light meal tonight, so decided to get soup and salad. I had minestrone and a caprese salad. I really enjoyed the salad, but my soup had some type of flavor that didn't agree with me. I can't put my finger on it, but it almost tasted like cinnamon? But, it could have just been my taste buds tonight. I want to swing back in and try the pizza, as it sounds like that is their specialty.

My husband sort of dragged me to this restaurant. Facade was humble, and the title implied pizza and poboys. I was not in a casual mood. I asked him to go in and get a menu, so that I could decide before going in whether to turn around and walk out. I was, to say the least, more than pleasantly surprised. The menu did include pizza -- gourmet pizza but not a poboy in sight. The menu was sophisticated, and the dishes were not just garden variety Italian dishes. I started with a ricotta-stuffed eggplant appetizer, which turned out to be what I would have considered a full-size entree portion. Delicious! For my real entree, I ordered Vitello Santorrini, an enormous portion of baby white veal, prosciutto, mozzarella, mushrooms in Marsala gravy. Served with roasted potatoes and sautéed, seasoned green beans. By this time, my stomach was begging for mercy, but there was dessert to be had -- caramel custard. I was now ready to pass on and meet my Maker. The wait staff was polite and helpful but not pushy. Prices were about midway between Pizza Hut and Commander's Palace. All in all, a surprising and lovely experience. Thank you, Brick Oven for not being what I thought you were.

Amazing Pasta.. This lovely little place has a wonderful Rigatoni Quattro Formaggi dish! We went there on a Tuesday night and were quickly placed at a table and our orders took. Our waitress was very sweet and very fast on her toes to check up on us and to see if we needed anything else, not to mention she was extremely patient with my husband who tends to take his time choosing. She gave us some awesome opinions on what she personally liked, so that was very helpful while choosing a dish. Over all this was a great place!

The BEST pizza we have had in a long time!!! Wish we lived closer so we could come back. Convenient location right next to our hotel on a Saints game night when we didnt want to fight traffic in the city. The interior is old and dated but dont let that deter you. Yummy yummy!

Convenient Location. Stopped in for a quick bit to eat after returning a U-Haul truck from a day of moving so we were hungry. After looking over the rather extensive menu we ordered the pollo al sorrentino and the pollo alla siciliana. The salads and bread came out rather quickly but the food took a little while. When the food arrived it was alright but not large enough to balance the price.

This place was right next door to our hotel so we walked there to eat. We were very impressed! The food was amazing!! We had Rigatoni with eggplant, rigatoni Quattro formaggi, linguini with scampi, and kids spaghetti with meatballs. It was all very good! And they have the best ceasar dressing EVER!! We bought some to bring home! Service was also good. No complaints :)

Very good pizza! My wife ordered the spaghetti with a delicious (and huge) meatball. The atmosphere is classic and upscale but they didn't flinch at our extremely comfy travel attire or kids. Service was stellar!

Good Food, Slow Service. We come to NOLA often and were driving by this place around dinner time so we decided to stop in. It wasn't super busy as we got a parking spot right away. When we went in, they told us it would be about a 45 minute wait. No problem. After sitting for 5 minutes, they called for us to be seated, Woo Hoo!! The waiter was very nice and took our order quick. Then the wait. After 30 minutes, the waiter told us only a couple of more minutes. 15 minutes later, we finally got our food (so I guess the original 45 minute quote was accurate). I had the Rigatoni Quattro Fromagii and my wife had the Chicago Pasta. The food was actually pretty good. If they can get the service right or at least have a better night than they did when we were there, it's worth stopping in.

The pizzas are very good. Maybe overpriced for pizza but in line with what you'd pay for a pasta dish. Pizza size is good for one with a little leftover. Prob not enough for two people.

Amazing. All I have to say is this is my favorite Italian in the city! I go here every year for my birthday! Great prices, great portions, awesome bread! Not stuffy fancy, a little romantic and super easy going! If you want a good solid Italian meal this is your place!

Brick Oven Cafe -- FANTASTIC!. Brick Oven Cafe in Kenner is excellent! Best Italian food in the city. We chose the Mozzarella In Corozza as an appetizer. Yummy Goodness! I had the Chicken Parmesan. I requested Alfredo sauce on my angel hair pasta. Creamy delicious sauce! My husband had the Veal Parmesan with the Marinara Sauce. He loved it! Also, their bread is the best...Warm and crispy and real butter to spread on it! I could fill up on their bread. Stop by and see Tony the manager, he's very personable. Shelley was our waitress and she was precious and very attentive. We can't wait to go back. Brick Oven Cafe is a real treat!

Wonderful collection of Great Flavors. I had not eaten there in years. The food was average back in the day. Its a new day at the Brick Oven, the food was so tasty. The bread they serve is simply the best. I am looking foward to returning to dine again.

Good Pasta. I've been to this place several times as its close by the hotel that I stay at when I'm in town. The Pizza is very good but I typically get the Pasta Jambalaya. It is phenomenal. Have had good service for the most part. I did have one instance where I was dining alone, and did not want to sit at the bar. It seemed as if they were REALLY pushing me to sit at the bar. I got the impression that I annoyed them by taking up a table/etc. Other then that one time, I've always had good, friendly service.
