Hermes Bar

First off , our bartender / server Shi … with an I , she was amazing. Exceptional service, even brought us warmed wet hand towels after i mentioned that we just took the trolley across town. The drinks were well crafted and balanced , especially the pear martini. Oysters Rockefeller were good for the first time , nice light and smooth blended topping , baked but not scalding hot , served on a bed of rock salt.

Enjoy the classics of the restaurant next door without the pomp and circumstance. The bartenders here are excellent, they make solid drinks and are super friendly. I’ve been having a sazerac everywhere I go, and this bar made the best one I’ve had anywhere in the city so far. Food was great too. My highlights were the oysters and the potatoes. Tried the 2-2-2 oyster plate which features cooked oysters with various preparations and toppings. The soufflé potatoes are also a must.

The bartender Garrett makes the experience delightful ! Came for the happy hour and the pear martini did not disappoint. Highly recommend coming here!

Classic New Orleans bar located in the French Quarter. Andrew, Garrett, and Micheal are great bartenders. They are friendly, knowledgeable, and fun. They have great cocktails. Beautifully decorated. Friendly bartenders. Great happy hour Monday to Friday.

On a rainy Monday afternoon in NOLA, we ducked into Hermes Bar at Antoine’s and spent a lovely hour with Shi, the bartender. She made the best Sazerac! Highly recommend.

The Hermes bar is part of Antoine’s and we stopped in for a cocktail before our dinner reservations. We sat at the bar and perused the menu as well as started up a conversation with the bartenders. The bar itself probably seats around 10 people however the room is large and has numerous tables in it. The bar itself has a old New Orleans decadent feel, and the walls have displays about various events during Mardi Gras over the years. Lots of cool pictures and memorabilia. Being in New Orleans I decided to order a Vieux Carre one of the historic drinks of New Orleans. My wife ordered an old-fashioned. Both drinks were very good and the conversation with the bartender informative as we were looking for additional places to explore while we were in the city for a few days. Not all bars are created equal, this one had the ambience the great drinks and the great wait staff. I highly recommend it.

Had a quick drink before parades last night. Got the king cake martini it was SO GOOD - thanks Hermes Bar!

This was a great spot for a bottle of wine and some good food. Randall at the bar took great care of my friend and I as we tried a few appetizers and some Pompano. The Chargrilled Oysters were delicious and the Pompano was light and well prepared. The soufflé potatoes- those were a miss, no seasoning and served with what I think was a butter that had some parsley but no seasoning. Overall a great find and the oldest family owned restaurant in the country as it is attached to Antoine’s.
