New Orleans Country Club: New Orleans

Gorgeous private club. The food and service is top tier. The grounds are immaculate. If you are lucky enough to get an invite from a member have a meal in the newly renovated restaurant. Unfortunately I can't share any pictures because it's private. 🤫

We had the mussels, which came in a broth of water. Margaritas were from a gun. The waiter was very nice, though.

This place requires membership in order to enjoy its amenities. Visited for a swim meet. Pool and bathrooms were clean. Food is delicious and catered to you.

So the ambiance is good once you get inside, however, the line to get in takes hours. It has no shade except at the very front of the line. They also have no bar or drink service there, so you just to markey’s around the corner. Several people got pizza from pizza delicious the next street over. A missed opportunity for them to make more money. Apparently the line is due to capacity limits and staffing- but they can be at 100% in the pool and they had two bartenders and security in the back. Just be aware you will be standing for a while. Maybe they can add a numbering system app, kinda like the food buzzers, that would let you know when you would be next in line to enter.

I had the pleasure of working a couple of weddings at this establishment. Beautiful place, the grounds were impeccably kept and the staff were always welcoming and helpful. I would definitely take another job here any day of the week.
