“ Almost missed this gem, Resy showed limited availability but the bar was completely open! Sophisticated place with lovely service & even better food! Dillon (bartender) recommended the “Never have I ever” flight - which was interesting & delicious. Dillon also suggested the oysters which were amazing, very similar to an east coast oyster with a delicate Meyer lemon mignonette & jalapeno garnish. I’m an oyster snob & these were nothing short of fabulous. I also had the shrimp chip which was also prepared well & very tasty. Although both the oysters & shrimp chip were amazing- I needed something more filling so I closed with the truffle fries. Overall a lovely experience away from the tourists & chaos. Drink bubbly everyday! ”
“ Was so pleasantly surprised with this hidden gem! Everything about our experience was wonderful. The vibes, the menu selection, the service - all of it was incredible. If I lived here I would be here weekly. Plus they do a happy hour! Run, don’t walk if you haven’t been yet! The owner Crystal is also so so sweet. Can’t wait to go back! ”
“ Tucked away in a charming corner of the city, Effervescence offers the perfect blend of luxury and comfort that's surprisingly hard to find in most bars. My wife and I recently visited to celebrate her birthday and were immediately struck by how the space manages to feel both sophisticated and genuinely relaxed. Unlike the stiff, formal atmosphere you might expect from a wine/champagne focused bar, Effervescence embraces a distinctly laid-back vibe. The soft lighting, comfortable seating, and gentle background music create an environment where you can truly unwind while enjoying some of the finer things in life. It is extremely versatile. You can have an intimate date night or a great group outing and not feel out of place. The food was nothing short of extraordinary. We had the oysters, the crepe and the brussel sprouts. The food arrived quickly eating it felt like we were on a culinary utopia. If you're looking for a place to celebrate a special occasion or simply enjoy an evening of exceptional food and drink without the stuffiness that often accompanies upscale dining, Effervescence delivers on all fronts. My wife and I left already planning our return visit for the next day. ”
“ What a wonderful hidden champagne house. We had the wagyu frittes, Brussels sprouts, and the cheese wheel. Everything was so delicious. The staff was incredibly friendly and the chef explained the dishes and was very passionate about them. Romantic ambiance and overall a fantastic place to vibe with friends or even make new ones. ”
“ What a delightful gem on Rampart St. Bubbles are top notch with a diverse selection sure to please anyone. The small plates are incredible. Go for the amazing bubbles and stellar customer service. Stay for the grilled peach dessert, spicy popcorn and people watching. ”
“ Open welcoming room, great service and the wine is beautiful. I tried one of their bubble flights. Loved that the somm explained each glass and offered insights. Felt like a very personal experience. Will have to come back to try other grapes but this was just what I needed for a quiet evening. ”
“ A friendly and welcoming place, whether you want a cocktail, wine or a full meal. Spacious with beautiful decor. Effervescence is a classy place to meet friends or to gather for Sunday Brunch. Their Caviar and Bagel brunch is spectacular and enough to split with a friend. The service is quick, cheerful and very good. They also have a great wine list as well as a full cocktail bar. Effervescence offers a different concept than many other establishments in the French Quarter, in a very good way. I would highly recommend stopping in for a beverage or more when in the French Quarter. ”
“ BEAUTIFUL place! We were lucky enough to get a table in the courtyard late Thursday. The ambiance, food and champagne flights were wonderful. I am a brussel sprouts connoisseur and theirs were the best of ever had and looked like art on the plate. We each got different champagne flights and the half servings were incredibly generous. The owner was so gracious. And.....VEGAN / PLANT-BASED options! A ”
