Concierge "The bistro-style menu is long on earthy, comforting flavors: duck with ginger-peach sauce, veal grillades over rich cheese grits, an outstanding duck and andouille étouffée."
Fodor's "This gaily colored cottage filled with a museum's worth of regional art has defined New Orleans Creole bistro fare." Full review
Frommer's "In a small, charming house in a largely residential area, Upperline eschews the high-profile route (unless you count appearances on Treme and The Best Thing I Ever Ate)." Full review
Lonely Planet "An excellent choice for contemporary Creole food in romantic surroundings." Full review
Travel + Leisure "The menu... includes such signature dishes as fried green tomatoes with shrimp remoulade, roast duck with peach sauce, and honey-pecan bread pudding." Full review

"A bright and beautiful addition to the crowded Magazine St eating scene, Coquette mixes up wine bar ambience with friendly service and a bit of white linen." Full review
Zagat ""Farm-to-table without being ostentatious about it", this "chic" Garden District bistro by chef/co-owner Michael Stoltzfus impresses a "young, trendy" clientele." Full review
BlackBook "This romantic Magazine Street bistro is a respite from the rancor, and a perfect spot for a couple who wouldn't mind actually hearing what each other had to say."
Gayot12.0
"There are any number of reasons to seek out this largely unsung gem, not the least of which is owner Mike Stoltzfus, former sous chef at Restaurant August under chef John Besh." Full review
Afar Magazine "Exposed brick, dark wood and plenty of natural light beget the handsome space at Coquette, which occupies an unassuming corner on Magazine Street in the tony Garden District." Full review
Not For Tourists "Elegant welcoming bistro with food to match."
Where "Coquette, where chef Michael Stoltzfus’ menu changes daily but is always stellar with standouts like the must-have crab cakes and decadent chocolate beignets making repeat appearances." Full review
Frommer's "The main room is small and tables are set close, so do make reservations and bring your loud restaurant voice." Full review
