Cafe Degas is the longest running authentic French bistro in New Orleans, LA.

Located on the historic Esplanade Ave. in New Orleans, LA, Cafe Degas offers authentic French bistro cuisine with a New Orleans flair. As the longest running authentic French bistro in the city, we were founded in 1980 and have been providing delicious French food ever since. Because our cafe is so small and offers no storage, we buy our ingredients fresh every day, and relish the opportunity to craft daily lunch and dinner specials. Every Wednesday we also offer a Prix Fixe, which includes a choice of appetizers and entree from the daily specials and any dessert for $35.

Cafe Degas Restaurant Review

In New Orleans, nowhere is the memory of French Impressionist Edgar Degas more respected than at this charming French café near City Park. Although frequented by nearby residents, diners come from all points in the metro area to sample the authentic salade niçoise, tender mignonettes of veal Parmesan, and a Dijon-crusted Australian rack of lamb. Every meal at Café Degas should begin with the...

It's "like you're at a cafe in Paris" at this "charming", "classic French bistro" in Bayou St. John that impresses patrons with its "rich", "delicious" fare and "nice wine list"; an "enclosed porch (complete with the tree coming through)" helps paint "the perfect setting for a romantic date", making it "highly recommended."

Like its namesake, this French hideaway has panache for detail.

Everything was perfect for my dear friend's birthday. We had The Melon Prosciutto Salad and Chicken Clemenceau. We had the Double Chocolate Cake for her Birthday Dessert. Outstanding food and service. We will definitely be back. A perfect Birthday Setting.

My first here but came with friends who been here many times and I can see why. What delightful place. Other than the great food and service I really enjoyed seating watching the neighborhood life cars, bikes, walkers go by the restaurant

the atmosphere is intimate and unique. food is exceptional and the staff is very attentive

The food has been better in the past. The veal was dry and over cooked. Waiter took it back, and sent out a new plate. Better second try. Steak was ok. Waitress was ok . In the past the stafff was really on top of things and I did not have to ask for plates and bread. The plates they gave us were coffee plates with no coffee cup. That's a joke people.

i have been dining at Cafe degas for over 10 years and this was by far the worst service I have ever had. Our waiter was non-existent, we waited over an hour for appetizer, and when we asked another waiter/busboy for an extra fork/ napkin, he responded "you need to talk to your waiter." this is inexcusable! mussels were horrible quality and they were out of the special. this was VERY...
