Lots to unpack! The service was absolutely the best I have ever received. The manager (I can’t remember his name) greeted us and made sure to check on us the entire evening. Our server Cesar was exceptional! He was very attentive and explained everything we had questions about. On to the food, we ordered the caviar ($250) and a few other appetizers(octopus, prawns, and bread) and each item was absolutely delicious. The prawns were seasoned to perfection and the caviar was like butter! (Well, it should be for the price 😂) I ordered the ‘Falls of the rack’.. I think that was the name of the spare ribs! And boy did they fall off the bones!! I also had a taste of the lamb chops, the fish (I honestly can’t remember which fish). I absolutely will be dining here again when I am in New Orleans again. I’d give it 10 stars but five is the max. Oh, the ambiance is great for a special occasion.

In our opinion the best restaurant in NOLA. Nothing else is close. Dry aged ribeye and falls off the bone short ribs were outstanding. Best dinner we've had in a long time. The in house baked bread was some of the most flavorful we've ever had. The beet appetizer is something memorable and we would go to Doris just for that and bread. Can't wait to return. Service out 5 star, outstanding.

A very good meal, excellent experience with exceptional service. I'm not a fan of a steak dinner out in a restaurant (I can buy and cook a better steak at home), but Doris is the exception. Cooked perfectly with great flavor. I love the wine selection, atmosphere, and enjoyment of the entire evening. They truly understand a complete customer experience!

Fantastic experience with great service and amazing food. One of the best steaks I’ve ever had in my life. We got two steaks and because we were celebrating my wife’s birthday, they brought it out on a chopping board with a safe fire! What a presentation!!!! Highly highly recommend if you are looking for fine dining steakhouse in the quarter.

Truly one of the most unforgettable dining experiences that I've ever encountered. Aaron and Diana at the barge really made me feel at home and insured that I had an exceptional experience. The sous vide and seared method for their steaks insures that each comes out perfectly cooked every time. The reputation here is certainly warranted and this should be considered one of if not the best restaurants in all of New Orleans.

Food: The food was all great, with the short rib being among the best I've ever had. The bread service was also delightful, and as simple as they were, the truffle fries were amazing. For a surprise, grab their version of a Shirley temple and a nice glass of red wine to go along with dinner. The asparagus was also good, and the Ribeye was good, although didn't stand beside the amazing shortrib. Service: I docked it a star for service due to our waiter not explaining the menu, not knowing the different butters, and not being able to articulate the chef's experience. Because of that, we likely spent a lot less, as I was interested in the chefs experience but couldn't receive a clear and easy to understand explanation of what it was or how it'd work. The manager on duty was great, and he made his way to our table for congrats and general checks on the experience. If our waiter would've carried the same enthusiasm, I would've given them 5 stars.

Doris is a welcoming place. We did not have a reservation and they were able to accommodate us. We had a table outside under a big fan and the staff felt so bad that we received free dessert. We had more than one server, they were very attentive. The service was amazing. The food was delicious. I highly recommend this place but make sure you have a reservation.

We dined her in September 2023. The food, staff, and ambiance was next level. We ordered the NY Strip, Lamb Chops, bread service, hummus plate, and the restaurants take on the napoleon dessert. It was scrumptious and cooked perfectly. A huge shout out to Anthony (manager) who took care of us. I have nothing but great things to say about this place. Will definitely come back again.

This place is amazing. The atmosphere, the staff, and the food 🤌, omg so good. The atmosphere is fantastic, low light, wine bottles on display along the walls, beautiful courtyard, and comfortable seats. The staff was extremely on point. The server who brought the bread, dinner, and dessert was amazing at explaining the food and how to enjoy it best. My water was consistantly filled and never had me looking for a server. The food. Omg the food. The bread was baked in house. Fresh. Nice selection of spreads of butter, but the oil/vinegar combo is the best I have ever had. Mouth watering. Dinner was just as good. I got the Picanha. Which has to be cooked just right to be good. It was stellar. The presentation was amazing as well. I enjoyed the small bit of Himalayan salt and crushed black pepper on the edge of the plate to season to your own tastes. Dessert was the Chocolate Nemesis I believe. Amazing as well. Presentation here matches the quality of the dining. Very impressed. This is my new favorite spot when I visit.

If you're looking for a delicious steak in town, this steakhouse is a must-try. The steak was undoubtedly one of the best steaks I've ever had. Cooked to perfection, it was incredibly juicy and tender, bursting with flavors that left me wanting more. Beyond the food, the service and atmosphere at this steakhouse were exceptional. The staff was welcoming and accommodating, ensuring that every need was taken care of. The ambiance was sophisticated, yet comfortable, and perfect for a romantic dinner or an upscale night out with friends. I highly recommend this steakhouse to anyone who appreciates a great steak and a fantastic dining experience. With its delicious food, attentive service, and welcoming atmosphere, this restaurant is sure to impress.

We sat at the bar, which I highly recommend...It was basically a chef's table, as we were right in the middle of the action. The experience starts with a visit from the excellent and down-to-earth Somalia who will gladly recommend a bottle at whatever price point you are comfortable with, and is followed by an EXCEPTIONAL cut of beef. Realizing that quality steak is extremely subjective, I still consider myself an expert on the matter. Exceptional cut of meat not overly seasoned, with a seasoning blend served on the plate so you can salt to taste. If I am EVER back in NOLA, my wife and I will revisit the Doris Metropolitan. Oh yeah, quality sides as well...all of them!

Highly recommend! This was my favorite NOLA dining experience. We loved the high end food, paired with the open concept kitchen that just made for an amazing, laid back vibe. Steaks were cooked beautifully, served rested and sliced. The shrimp special was phenomenal. Our waitress was great- she misheard my husband’s drink order (no big deal) and she voluntarily covered it herself. The manager (I assume) stopped to talk with all the guests. We will be back!

I enjoyed my last meal while in New Orleans at this restaurant. I decided I wanted a really good steak dinner to finish off my trip and saw this location was nearby. I walked past a few windows and saw the meat refrigerated inside and was sold on the look. I went inside worried that I wasn't dressed properly and the hostess were very sweet and kind. I was seated at the bar and the bartender immediately came over with a glass of water while I perused the menu. I decided on a 16oz New York Strip Steak, Truffle Fries, and a Strawberry Lemon Drop. I also requested Bread Service. Overall the food was excellent my Steak was cooked Medium Rare which is my preference. What I really enjoyed was that it wasn't seasoned. They actually put a Sea Salt concoction along with a herb seasoning off to the the side for you to dip your steak in. The truffle fries were delicious and my strawberry lemon drop was just the right amount of sweetness to alcohol that I like. While I was enjoying my food the bartenders constantly checked in on me to make sure that everything was to my satisfaction. It was above and beyond. I wasn't able to finish the meal and took it to go with an extra Onion Bread Roll. Excellent experience. Highly recommended

Holy meat sweats. I love experiences and this was one of my favorite eating experiences in a long time. With a group of 19, it can be easy to miss the mark, but that was not the case this time. Every minute was enjoyable, delicious and memorable. Thank you so much for going above and beyond with our meals.

The top 2 steakhouses in New Orleans in our opinion. It's so good, that we've made it a normal reservations for our anniversary. The restaurant gives off this high/luxurious vibe with how they display the aged steaks. This most recent reservation, we enjoyed the Chef's Experience.... where we tell them a little bit of what we want and we let the chef do their thing. It did NOT disappoint at all. Look at how delicious this steak is @phidingthefam

One of the best steaks (dry aged ribeye) I ever had. Perfectly cooked. No sauces. Just salt and pepper on the plate. I also had a very unique and tasty tomato salad. My buddy couldn't stop talking about the steak tartare. Service fine, but uninspiring at this price point. Atmosphere was mah. We were put in a small side room which was quieter than the main dining room but also much less interesting. The sides were nothing to write home about. But, oh my God, that steak! Better than Desi Vegas (ate there the night before) which was good, but they were a AAA ball club, compared to the Majors, which was Doris.

Ceaser was our waiter and he made the our meal that much better. Very friendly, informative, nice. He was busy but we still felt like his only table. The food was AMAZING!!!! We tried new things and they are all so good. We will definitely be coming back and requesting Ceaser!!!!
