Serving dinner nightly Restaurant R’evolution offers modern, imaginative reinterpretations of classic Cajun and Creole cuisine. Located inside The Royal Sonesta New Orleans hotel in the heart of the French Quarter, Restaurant R’evolution’s menu reflects a melding of our region’s distinct culinary styles. Steeped in the diverse historic and cultural influences of Louisiana, the menu features not only contemporary interpretations of New Orleans classics such as gumbo, po’ boys, and beignets, but also new creations highlighting ingredients from the vast backyard pantry that is the wetlands of Louisiana. Tableside service components play an important role in the dining experience, promoting guest engagement about the history and evolution of the food they are enjoying.

    The food is excellent and the service is amongst the best in the city. The recent renovation was not much but a touch up but thankfully the elements that make it special remain. The death by gumbo, redfish and crème brûlée are standout dishes. A must visit.

    The atmosphere and service were unmatched. Their prices are a smidge higher than what I would have paid for the quality of food. The food was good but not great for the reputation of the restaurant. I expected more flavor. The fish was bland and the food was delivered room temp, not hot. I would also skip dessert. We had the maple bread pudding crème brûlée. Totally underwhelming. The drinks were good. The crab beignets were fantastic. And the service was impeccable. 3 out of 5

    Just go—it’s spendy, but it’s also an unforgettable experience from start to finish. Be aware; Hellcat is a delicious blue crab and shrimp add on at $30 to each entree. In town for a conference and if it wasn’t booked, we would totally go back twice this week. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    I've eaten at many places around the world. The food here is very good but, to me, needs a little tweaking. I ordered the turtle soup which had a very, very dark roux which was overpowering the dish, by my taste. Also, ordered the black gnocchi with butter-poached lobster. The lobster was delicious and the gnocchi were as light as clouds. The pasta sauce, however, was tasty but very, very rich so it was difficult to eat the whole plate. Would come back but would consider different dishes.

    We had a party of 5 with reservations well in advance. First off our table was on uneven ground so our table was at a very noticeable angle. The food was well below expectations. It was my daughter’s birthday so we ordered dessert it sat at a service tray beside us so long the ice cream was melting by the time we got it! Do not recommend
