Broussard's Restaurant & Courtyard

all areas of the reception. Thank you for making this an amazing evening for us! Lea & Mitch

rk with and her attention to detail and calm demeanor made the evening just wonderful. We had the total restaurant buy out which worked well for our 150 plus guests. Plenty of room to eat, drink, and be married. Weather was ideal so we opted out of the tent and LOVED the courtyard area for the band and dancing. The food was amazing. We have gotten so many wonderful comments on the tasty dishes and the reception style service. It allowed for mingling all around the restaurant. All and all the evening was perfection. Thanks again to Monica and the staff at Broussard's for making our dreams come true.

. All of our guests are raving about the food and service still!

commodating. You will be in great hands choosing them!

A. We booked a weekend trip to check out venues across the city and Brossard's stood out among the rest with its beautiful courtyard and the adjoining Herman-Grima House. Courtney was extremely helpful to us providing crucial insight on how to execute a perfectly planned event especially when an unusual cold snap hit the New Orleans in the days leading up to our wedding. I cannot bestow enough praise to the Broussard’s team for making our wedding everything we dreamed it would be!

She's friendly and never pressures you on packages or prices. Courtney went above and beyond to accommodate us, especially during the planning. Before I walked down the aisle, she even did breathing exercises with me to calm down. The night of the wedding the entire staff was so accommodating. We had a personal attendant who constantly supplied us with drinks, water, and snacks. Our parents felt like royalty too as the staff made sure their hands were never drink-less. Everyone was so nice and happy and contributed to the joyous vibe of the wedding. Of course the space itself is beautiful and feels very NOLA. It was the perfect place to host our special day.

knowing when it was our turn, that we had to be married there. And I was lucky enough to get one of the last Saturday’s in the Fall as our date. We worked with Courtney through the entire process and couldn’t be happier with the service she provided. She was wonderful! The weekend of our wedding her staff was punctual, professional, and made sure that myself, my fiancé, and both our families were attended to the entire evening. I really can’t say anything negative about Courtney and the entire Broussard’s staff. From start to finish the helped make our wedding day dreams a reality. I can’t recommend this venue enough for anyone looking for a top notch event. We can’t wait to go back in the years to come to reminisce about our special day! Thank you Broussard’s!

tion, gorgeous table settings and happy and experienced servers, our guests had the perfect ambiance of New Orleans. Courtney organized everything from start to finish and even had the Chef meet with us to make sure our event was flawless. Thank you Courtney and all of the wonderful people at Broussard’s for making lovely memories that will last the rest of our Lives. Sincerely, Chris A

her team made sure my husband and I had a few moments of privacy with champagne and some food already waiting for us. The food was amazing and all of our guests loved it. The courtyard provided a nice New Orleans feel and the set up for dessert and our food was so beautiful. I definitely recommend Broussard’s as a venue and also for the extremely helpful team they had. Our guests are still talking about the food!

on with aplomb. Courtney was our primary contact. She was very accessible to us & was extremely knowledgeable. She worked well with all vendors. Courtney also worked with us regarding special requests. The venues, staff, food/drinks all exceeded our expectations! Thanks to Courtney & the staff, it was truly a wonderful New Orleans wedding !

ney was so helpful as she answered question after question and worked with us on menus along with everything else. On the day of the wedding, they treated us like we were the most important people in the world and everyone was so nice and helpful. The food was spectacular and the courtyard alone was so beautiful! It created quite the backdrop for the best wedding ever. I would recommend Broussard's to anyone getting married in New Orleans! Thank you again to Courtney, Nike and the rest of the Broussard's team for everything. We are so happy!

ed, we set off for a weekend trip to New Orleans to tour several venues that we booked appointments with. After seeing the venues we had planned and not finding anything that fit, we popped into Broussard's on a whim. We were greeted by Danielly, the manager, and told her we were engaged and looking for a venue, so she asked if we'd like a tour. We didn't want to bother her since we hadn't made an appointment, but she insisted and was so excited for us to see everything. She showed us the courtyard of the Hermann-Grima House, which is right next store and where they normally hold wedding ceremonies, as well as the courtyard and inside spaces available at Broussard's for the reception. Both courtyards were beautiful and we especially liked the Magnolia Room at Broussard's with its exposed brick walls, wooden ceiling beams and fireplace. After seeing the spaces and feeling so welcomed by Danielly, we knew that it was the place for us! Danielly put us in touch with Courtney, who we worked with over the next year on the details leading up to our wedding date. Courtney was very quick to respond to our many questions and was awesome to work with as we were planning everything out. We initially thought that Broussard's would be out of our price range, but when we started adding up all of the services that they were providing that we'd otherwise have to contract out separately at other venues (catering, bar, servers, tables, chairs, linens, place settings, etc.), it wasn't that far out of range. We read other reviews that stated that their delicious food and the level of exceptional service is what set them apart from other venues. They were right! Everything was absolutely amazing for our wedding ceremony and reception. The beautiful setting, the fabulous food and drinks, the top-notch service...it was fantastic! Our wedding guests continue to rave about how great the food was and what a beautiful space it is. This is exactly what we were shooting for in providing our guests with a classic New Orleans experience. The servers were so friendly (shout out to Sara & Nike). All of them took great care of us and our guests and even contributed to the fun vibe of the evening when some of them joined us on the dance floor. We stayed in town for a few days after the wedding to relax and decompress. We stopped into Broussard's during happy hour early one night and had a couple of cocktails in the courtyard just so we could reminisce and reflect on how beautiful the space is and how wonderful everything was for our special day. Thanks so much to Courtney, Danielly and the Broussard's staff for making our wedding day an amazing event that we'll cherish for a lifetime.

was very helpful with us planning a destination wedding (we are from Boston). Come the day of, the Broussard's staff was just amazing! Joy went above and beyond to take care of myself and my new husband and John on the bananas foster station was great! All of the staff was just so friendly and all of our guests mentioned that! And the FOOD was out of this world! Our friends and family are still talking about the food 4 months later! I highly recommend having your reception at Broussard's, the space is gorgeous and the food and staff were the best!

t overwhelmed a couple of times with all the planning and the placement of things but whenever I spoke with Courtney, she put me and my husband at ease. Beautiful location. Beautiful setup. Thank you Courtney!

was at the dinner as well, they even grabbed him and was helping out with him as well!! We had such a great time, it was the perfect start to our wedding weekend! We could not have picked a better and more beautiful place!

ttle different from the usual events. Broussard’s met every expectation! Courtney was professional and fun to work with! The food was exceptional! The tenderloin melted in your mouth! Many, many compliments from our guests. It was fantastic! The staff were on top of everything. I brought the items and decorations for a candy bar thinking they would do an okay job...well it was fabulous! From helping with figuring out the weather plans to helping solve any issues, they were responsive and great!

erience. First and foremost, Courtney was amazing! From start to finish she was a pleasure to work with and made the day of magical for everyone in the wedding party. She truly became our trusted adviser and having her input made all of the difference as we struggled with last minute decisions and hiccups. Beyond that, every member of the Broussard's staff was kind, attentive, and accommodating. The venue is beautiful, the food is delicious, and the people are the best. We will be forever grateful for how amazing our wedding was and Broussard's played an integral role in making the dream a reality.

us dancing under the stars with a great flow from every room. The local and out of town guests raved about the service and the food. Throughout the planning and the night, Courtney answered every question and need to ensure we were all happy. It was an amazing night and we would choose them over again 100%!! Thanks to all of the staff at Broussard's!

job, from beginning to end. Courtney is so very easy to work with, very knowledgable, and knows exactly how to manage a wedding reception. She will honor just about any suggestion or request you have. The food at Broussard's is fabulous, and the staff there were so attentive. The courtyard is one of the prettiest places in New Orleans. Even though I live in and am from NOLA, my daughter and her now husband live out of town and the majority of their guests were from out of town. They were all so impressed with the food, drinks, and beautiful setting. And those friends of ours who live in New Orleans were equally impressed. I highly recommend using Broussard's for your reception (or any party) and Hermann-Grima courtyard for your wedding. Everyone is still raving about the wedding and reception!

s incredible establishment. The restaurant and courtyard were beautifully decorated. The jazz band was discreetly placed in the courtyard for all to hear. The food, service and attention to detail were all stellar. Repeatedly, guests stated with tremendous enthusiasm, "This is the nicest rehearsal dinner I have ever been to; and I've been to a lot." With heartfelt appreciation and the fondest of memories we recommend Broussard's to all others for their family's rehearsal dinner, wedding or special affair.

setting, service, and food could not have been better!! We held our ceremony in the adjoining courtyard of the Hermann-Grima House, second lined through the quarter, and then hosted 150 guests in the courtyard of Broussard's for our reception. Courtney Shinn was wonderful to work with and ensured that we had a very special event. From the moment we chose the venue through our reception, the team at Broussard's was amazing. The staff was extremely attentive and the service was excellent. Our guests are still raving about the setting and the food. The courtyard lends itself very well to tenting if needed - so I wouldn't worry about rain or weather changing how magical the space is. We had a perfect night.

ue but it would not have had the wow factor or impressive service the we got here. Courtney was extremely professional and patient as we attempted to plan our perfect day. She stayed cool and calm during the whole event. If things did go wrong, I never knew about it. I have to mention Joy! She was my guardian angel the entire night. She kept me fed and hydrated and checked in with me and my family the exact right amount, not too much and not too little. Our friends and family still talk about how good the food was and the bar kept them all well taken care of. While the price may feel like a lot, I assure you, it is not for what you are getting. Not only is everything done is one place, they treat you like an honored guest from the tasting, to making sure our guest that looked too hot had a cool place to rest. We highly recommend Broussard's to provide the perfect touch of New Orleans charm and beauty.

have to do much to decorate or bring anything else in. Courtney was incredible and so sweet and professional. The staff was amazing. They were even dancing with us! If they are available definitely use Broussards.

e food is as good as it gets, we received countless messages from our guests saying how excellent the food was. The shrimp and grits are, by far, the best I’ve ever had on my life. Finally, the staff was top-notch on our wedding day. They were making sure we, and our guests, had a drink in hand, and anything else we needed at all times. They are true hospitality professionals. We had about 100 guests and had our ceremony at the hermann grima House (which is connected to Broussard’s courtyard) and the reception on the courtyard at Broussard’s. We also had access to two beautiful air conditioned rooms, which was really nice to sit down and eat or cool down from dancing .Highly highly recommend this venue

and into the reception in the Broussard's courtyard with a seated dinner split between the Magnolia and Josesphine rooms. Cannot say enough about the beauty of the space - if you are looking for the perfect courtyard wedding, Broussard's is the ideal location! Our guests raved over the food and service. One of the Broussard's servers even offered to walk one of our guests to CVS after her shoe broke and she had to buy flip flops. I would be remiss if I didn't mention how great Courtney was. She was extremely helpful, understanding and a pleasure to work with. We would highly recommend Broussard's for your wedding day!

God...Left everyone speechless. It was a true joy having Broussard's as our venue. I don't think we will ever fully grasp how lucky we were to find them. The Hermann Grima House for our ceremony was just serene. Felt like a slice of heaven. Thank you Broussard's for exceeding all our expectations. Worth every penny. And Ariel was a gem too!

e right on a 'scouting trip' to NOLA one weekend last year, as soon as we saw the courtyard at Broussard's, we knew we had found our venue (and the courtyard space for the ceremony at Hermann-Grima couldn't be more beautiful, either!). We originally worked with Elizabeth Lauer, who was lovely, but after she left the company we worked with Courtney Shinn as our venue coordinator, who was amazing! She worked seamlessly with our wedding planner (Taylor Quintini), and was available to answer any questions we had about vendors, floor plans, timing, etc. She was flexible with changes that we wanted to make to the menu/bar packages, and was very accommodating to a few allergies that we needed to be aware of. Courtney was also great during our rehearsal and the wedding itself - she's incredibly positive and just has a great, relaxed vibe about her; very helpful on a wedding day! Also, the service staff at Broussard's was AMAZING. Multiple guests told us that one of their favorite things about our venue was watching the servers and bartenders dance (at their stations) to our DJ's music - they clearly seemed to genuinely enjoy their jobs, and their energy added greatly to the amazing overall vibe of the night! Ana was our "personal" server for the night, and she was just the most fun - always at our side with a fresh drink (and water), she did the limbo on the dance floor, and we even tried to get her to come to our after party! Last but most certainly not least - THE FOOD. I cannot count how many of our guests told us that this was the best food they have ever had at a wedding ("or ever," from some!), hands-down. Each station was better than the next, and people were absolutely raving about the quality of the food the next day. And it was replenished until the end of the night - even the raw bar! Absolutely amazing.

enues almost a year and a half before the big day. My Husband and I have attended a bunch of weddings and we knew we wanted the New Orleans feel with an open concept so our guests wouldn't feel secluded throughout the night. We must have looked at over a dozen venues, but after we walked into Broussard's we never went to another place. Broussard's has the rich New Orleans history with the architect to prove it! In the year leading up to the wedding we visited Broussard's multiple times - every single time we went, the whole staff (no matter if it was a manager, waiter/waitress, or bartender) was incredible. They are all super friendly and hard working. A huge shout out to Courtney Shinn, our coordinator - leading up to the wedding Courtney made sure all of my quirky requests were taken care of. I wish I could share photographs because the venue was breathtaking. The day of was ABSOLUTE PERFECTION. Broussard's and the Hermann Grima House are perfect for family portraits, wedding party pictures, and first looks. I honestly cannot imagine how my wedding could have been any better. Courtney and Kyle took care of me, my husband, and my family - I had a drink in my hand at all times and I never had to leave the dance floor because they were so attentive and took care of everything for us. I've gotten sooo many compliments on the incredible venue, food, and service was. We had 200+ guests who came in from all over Louisiana and some who traveled from Canada, California, New York, D.C., Texas, Alabama, etc - It's one thing to love your own wedding, but it feels amazing when all your guests won't stop raving about your wedding and telling you how much they enjoyed themselves and how truly unforgettable their experience was. I wish I could relive my wedding over and over again. I am beyond happy with Broussard's - thank you Courtney and the Broussard's team for helping me have my dream wedding!!

olutely stunning and needed very little to decorate it because it was naturally gorgeous. The ambiance of the area where the cake and food sat was beyond beautiful and I felt like was was in a different era. We loved it so much we went back for brunch the next day.

detail about our day, so we didn't have to worry about a thing during our event. To top it all off, it is the most beautiful courtyard in New Orleans. Couldn't be happier!

w delicious the food was and how lovely the atmosphere was. We started the process with Elizabeth but ended it with Courtney and there were no hiccups and everything went so smoothly. Courtney and the Broussard's team were great and everything was taken care of. Thank you, Thank you. We are already planning our 1 year anniversary trip back to New Orleans and Broussard's will definitely be on our list of places to dine.

for our guests to move freely throughout the space whether they wanted to relax at the bar, eat in the dining space, or dance in the courtyard. It was a perfect April evening - and it even rained after the second line delaying my band for about an hour. The staff at Broussard's was so pleasant and kept me informed on the weather so we could make the right decision of waiting for the rain to pass and let the band continue in the courtyard. The food was delicious - people are STILL talking about it. The "tasting" did not do it justice; the service was top notch - everyone has been telling me so; and the space was beautiful. I could not have had a better evening! Thank you!!!

ul to work with and made the whole experience stress free. If you have never been to Broussard's, you need to visit it immediately- it was perfect for our reception. the beautiful courtyard is pure New Orleans romantical charm! The lights and greenery are stunning! We also rented out the A/C room next to the courtyard, as our wedding was 2 weeks ago in June and the weather down there can be a little warm. It was a nice touch and never took away from the natural ambiance of the courtyard. Elizabeth is also a gem to work with- she is so sweet and takes the time to listen and answer all your questions. She is so detail-oriented that she made our wedding day flow perfectly! She is absolutely wonderful and I will miss her smiling face! Thank you Thank you Thank you!! -Hope to see you in St. Louis!

reat time. The Magnolia Room, Josephine Room and Courtyard provide the coolest ambience and Nola vibe. And Elizabeth Lauer is a rockstar! She did a tremendous job of assisting us throughout the entire process and keeping the whole operation moving. I highly recommend choosing this location!

und the block and into the reception in the Broussard's courtyard. I cannot say enough about the beauty of the space - if you are looking for a quintessential courtyard wedding, Broussard's is for you! The stone, the greenery, the bistro lighting... we saved immensely on decor/flowers because the space itself is just so beautiful. And the food! Unsurprisingly, our guests raved about every dish. Most of all though, Elizabeth Lauer served as a WONDERFUL shepard through the whole experience. She was helpful, responsive, and a very calming influence during what can be a stressful time. On the night itself, she made sure we were never without a drink in our hands, and went out of her way to make our family members feel special as well. We had an amazing experience there from top to bottom - highly recommend!

ASTIC and drinks never stopped flowing. Quintessential New Orleans courtyard setting. We had the ceremony at Hermann-Grima House so basically the entire event was at one venue. Made things work out great logistically. I highly recommend this venue.

g, we literally walked through the doors of Broussard's and the beauty of the restaurant and the history of the courtyard was truly impressive. Not to mention, all of the incredible 5-star reviews. I knew, "this was it!" Then, finding out that the historic Hermann-Grima House was connected which displayed such a rustic back drop for our ceremony, made it even sweeter. I immediately, got on the phone and was pleased with the prompt, friendly and helpful staff. I began to work with the very special, Elizabeth Lauer, catering manager. From the very begin, she embraced me, my vision and did everything possible to make my dream a reality. I loved talking with her and felt an immediate connection. Niceness goes a long way with me and her willingness to help as well as her responsiveness to all my emails and calls was impressive. Considering planning from afar was difficult and stressful, especially having a newborn to care for, she did everything to assure me that it would be perfect and kept me calm. The ceremony and reception plans fell together seamlessness. Even if I emailed her 100 times, it was always met with positivity and eagerness to please. I never had any reservations that it would not be what I envisioned but I wasn't sure what to fully expect, planning this wedding myself with no planner was as I mentioned a bit nerve racking. All the details and specifics can become overwhelming. I really just thought Elizabeth was there to finalize our menus and to follow our contract. Well, to my delight, Elizabeth was truly my wedding planner for EVERYTHING beyond just the food and drinks! When we went to the rehearsal, she greeted me with a huge smile and was obviously very organized. She said "Yes" to all of my requests or suggestions. I don't think "No" is even in her vocabulary. That makes for a happy bride. She kept all of our belongings organized, and set up both the ceremony and reception to perfection. I trusted her judgement and she went above and beyond to bring that wow factor to our event, adding candles and lanterns galore and ensuring that every detail was done right. All bonuses and things that she didn't have to do for us. Every request was met...from a bridesmaid needing a safety pin, to ensuring my mom got to eat while watching our son, to bustling my dress, to making sure we ate and had special drinks in hand, to organizing the flow of all the vendors involved, just to name a few. She did so much, even my guests were raving about her helpfulness and how nice she was. Elizabeth truly went above and beyond her job expectations and I could genuinely tell she loves what she does. Broussard's is lucky to have her on staff. I can not thank her enough for making our wedding more than perfect. When I say it was PERFECT, I mean it. There was not one thing I would change and I couldn't imagine saying the same if it wasn't for us selecting Brossard's and having Elizabeth as our planner. The food was UNBELIEVABLY AMAZING but that will be for my next review! Thank you so much to Elizabeth. I will never forget the love and support she showed me and my family on the most special day of our lives. Happily ever after, indeed!

ard's was our dream venue. Our day of coordinator, Elizabeth Lauer, was far and away the best vendor we worked with (and we worked with a lot of fantastic vendors). She went above and beyond for us, making sure every single detail was perfect. She stayed in communication with us throughout the process, double checking our menus and addendums to the original contract, making sure that everything we wanted was talked about and addressed. The day of, she was perfect. She ran interference and made sure the schedule was more or less kept. She made sure we had food and a minute to eat, that we always had a drink in our hands, and that the day was perfect. She and the Broussard's staff are really gold stars. They are lovely, warm, welcoming people who just want you to have the perfect day. Their attention to detail was OUTSTANDING. The food was impeccable. The drinks were delicious. I could go on. Thank you Broussard's for making our day PERFECT.

hanie, the coordinator, is so helpful and friendly. Planning a wedding can be so overwhelming, but she always made us feel like we were on track, offered suggestions and was easy to get in touch with. She even went above and beyond, helping my MOH conceal her new pregnancy by making sure she always had non-alcoholic drinks in hand until she was ready to announce it after the wedding was over. Of course, the food was amazing -- our guests are STILL talking about it! We had our ceremony in the connected Hermann-Grima House's courtyard, which is also beautiful and didn't need a whole lot of flowers or decorations with all the greenery in bloom. With most of our guests being from out of town, the venue is in easy walking distance from the downtown hotels and saved us the headache of organizing transportation. Broussard's was exactly what I envisioned when we decided we wanted to get married in a New Orleans courtyard -- elegant without being stuffy, and a perfect mix of indoor and outdoor space. We are so glad we decided on Broussard's!

e both held in the courtyard (our food was in the Magnolia Room), and everything was completely seamless (even the transition between the ceremony and reception). Stephanie took great care of us (and our families) and kept the wedding on schedule. As for the space itself, every guest commented on the beauty of the courtyard in spring. I believe "magical" was the word most used. We were fortunate and the weather was beautiful so we didn't use any sort of tents (even for our 8-piece band). My husband and I never write reviews but relied on them while planning our destination wedding, so we wanted to return the favor by highly recommending Broussard's. Thank you for everything, Stephanie and the team at Broussard's! We could not be happier!

ng and was very responsive. Food was EXCELLENT! They kept us on track as well, with so much going on it's hard to remember you have certain markers in the day - cake cutting, etc. My dj also went MIA days before the wedding and she helped us get a new one the afternoon before the wedding. Worked great with all our vendors as well and helped my family easily pick up our things the next day when we had already left for our honeymoon. It really is a picture perfect New Orleans courtyard setting.

ntire event.

bsolutely beautiful and the food is delicious! My husband and I are both from New Orleans and Broussard's definitely captures the French Quarter Vibe we wanted!

fessional, nice and prompt (despite going through major renovations and being long-distance)and she made us feel completely at ease the entire way. Her assistant Christina is also lovely and wonderful to work with. From the taste testing to the rehearsal to the day-of, Caroline, Christina and the entire crew at Broussard's made us feel like the most important people in the place. Every single guest who came couldn't stop talking about how gorgeous the restaurant is, the courtyard in particular and also how wonderful all of the food and drinks were. The chef was kind enough to honor the menu we had chosen prior to him being hired and it was sensational (and so are all of the current dishes on their menu!) People said it was one of the most beautiful weddings they had ever been too - and we hardly decorated at all! We can't say enough good things about this place and the people who work here. Thank you all so much for making our wedding day so special!
