I
recently
dined
at
Pêche
in
New
Orleans,
situated
conveniently
close
to
the
National
WWII
Museum.
Arriving
around
2pm,
we
were
greeted
with
a
modest
15-minute
wait,
which
was
quite
reasonable.
The
interior
of
Pêche
is
both
spacious
and
brightly
lit,
creating
a
welcoming
atmosphere.
We
started
with
their
specialty
Old
Fashioned,
which
was
expertly
mixed
and
set
a
high
bar
for
the
meal.
For
appetizers,
we
went
with
a
dozen
raw
oysters
-
the
Louisiana
Area
3
and
Alabama
Bright
Sides.
The
Area
3
oysters
were
large
and
meaty,
offering
a
satisfying
chew,
while
the
Bright
Sides
were
smaller
and
had
a
pleasantly
briny
taste.
The
Steak
Tartare
was
another
highlight,
impressing
us
with
its
freshness
and
flavor.
On
the
other
hand,
the
Grilled
Chicken
with
Oyster
Aioli
was
a
bit
too
salty
for
our
liking.
The
Smoked
Tuna
Dip
was
enjoyable
but
lacked
the
pronounced
smoky
flavor
we
expected.
The
turnips
were
average,
nothing
too
memorable.
For
the
kids,
the
Butter
Pasta
with
Parmesan
was
a
safe
and
satisfactory
choice,
though
it
didn't
stand
out
in
any
particular
way.
Service
was
a
strong
point
throughout
our
meal.
The
staff
was
attentive
and
helpful,
ensuring
a
smooth
dining
experience.
Overall,
Pêche
provided
a
pleasant
culinary
experience,
especially
for
seafood
lovers.
While
not
all
dishes
hit
the
mark,
the
quality
of
the
standout
items
and
the
overall
ambiance
make
it
a
worthwhile
visit.
A
solid
4
stars
from
me!
