What up, y’all! I’m back again with another date night review ✨this time for 1803 NYC; a Cajun restaurant located in Tribeca. First off, I love the aesthetic of the place. Decorated with floral elements and fluer de lis fencing, it’s like a small burst of NOLA in NYC. They also sometimes have a band playing live jazz 🎺 Since Babe and I have been exploring all of the raw oyster options we can, I HAD to put him on to the charbroiled version! 1803 NYC does an amazing job with them too; buttery with the perfect amount of spice, they’re definitely a 10/10. We also got some raw oysters, of course. Those were delicious too 🦪 We then got the Brussels sprouts and the sea bass. The Brussel Sprouts were cooked to perfection with a crunchy outer texture and a pillowy inside. And the chilli sauce it comes in? Absolutely BAGING! 🌱As for the sea bass 🐟I wasn’t expecting it to come fried (though I don’t know what I expected after reading cornmeal crusted but ya live and learn right 😭). Either way, the fish was super meaty and well cooked. I also loved the lemon butter caper sauce it came with. Though I personally wasn’t a big fan of the frying mixture used and think the fish would be better served grilled, I enjoyed my overall dining experience✨ Def recommend this spot for a date night or an after work drink 🍸 SN: I LOVE the sauces that come on the table. The Fresno chilli has a vibrant kick while the green sauce was a bit more mellow but packed with flavor. 🌶️
I also wanted to give a quick shoutout to our server, Bridgette! She was super sweet and not only accommodating but also ingenious. When I wanted a refill of my glass, she left me with my original glass and returned with a carafe. I just thought that was so smart (though I’m sure for her it was a no brainer 😂)

Hey Jaida! Thank you so much for sharing this experience in such detail. We're thrilled to hear of your wonderful time dining with us and hope you'll join us again for more! All the best, The 1803 Team
We celebrated family birthdays tonight at the 1803 Entertainment restaurant/bar/local hot spot located in the Tribeca heart of NYC it was phenomenal.
The staff is a group of awesomely beautiful & cool people. The venue & menu is authentic and upscale, yet affordable. The live Cuban band led by Chino Pons is everything. He is a legend & his arrangements are genius.

The vibe and energy here was great. Everyone working was really nice. The decor was super aesthetic. Tried food from the dinner menu when I went because I got there only a little before 4. I'd definitely wanna come back to try their brunch menu.

Thanks for letting us know, Lis. Our brunch is some of the best around, we'd love to have you come try! Live jazz from 12-3pm every Saturday & Sunday.
Ordered a burger for lunch, delivered quickly, but the food was just terrible, meat was a disaster.

This establishment is filled with such an amazing staff. The food was a taste of New Orleans in NYC. A very cozy and welcoming atmosphere. Thank you for a lovely evening and fine dining...

Thanks for leaving your review, T! We'd love to host you again anytime :)
Our table consisted of 4 and we came after finding out Bubby’s closed at 3:45 without a posting and we were glad we came here instead. The food was good and the atmosphere was calm and relaxing for the city. Eddie greeted us and was very friendly and welcoming, his upbeat personality was just what we needed. I would definitely visit again. I had the short rib Ragu and the rest of the party had the gumbo which they all loved, it was perfect for this windy day.

Hi Cabernet! We're so glad you found your way to us. We hope you'll think of 1803 next time you're looking for a place to dine in Tribeca. Cheers & happy holidays!
I cannot wait to go back for the Charbroiled oysters and branzino and collard greens. The drinks were also amazing.

I really enjoyed my meal at 1803 NYC. The seafood was cooked well and full of flavor, and the service was friendly without being overbearing. It’s a nice place for a casual dinner or a night out.

TLDR: Solid drink and dinner spot (decent happy hour deal) with nice ambiance (sometimes live music).
Ordered escargot, tacos, shrimp po’boy, and some other solid eats as well, everything generally hit the spot. Solid service as well, need to come see the live music sometime.
