“ Awesome place for a date night . Drinks were amazing . We both got the sidecars martini. Very strong ! The host was very nice but the bartenders were a bit corky & seemed under the influence. Def would come back though ! Small food menu item as well . ”

“ Hungry Eyes has an offering of delicious and unique food. The inside is a funky as the name from the 80's suggests, with a casual atmosphere, but don't let that fool you when it comes to their food. We started with the Roasted Artichokes, served as if Oysters Rockefeller, and in our case a Yellowtail Tuna Appetizer that melted in our mouths with freshness and flavor. Also be sure to get the Salad in Disguise served with a crunchy seed topping, and LEAVE ROOM FOR DESSERT! We had their chocolate cheesecake, and were felled. For the quality and imagination of the fare, the prices were VERY reasonable! Also, if you don't mind early, they have a happy hour! And be sure to save time to shop before dinner, as they are located along trendy Magazine Street. ”

“ Our large party of 10 people had a great experience at Hungry Eyes over the weekend. The service was great - friendly and knowledgeable. The food was fantastic - all of our dietary needs were met. Our expectations were exceeded! Highly recommend. ”

“ Wow mason really doesn't miss. Been dying to come here, and everything was great from the looks to the food to the service. Lauren the bartender made great drinks and provided AMAZING service(more on that later). The artichokes are a must get. I've eaten at way too many places here and this was one of the best things I've had in the city and I'll be coming back for them alone. I also ordered the steak. I'm picky when it comes to steak bc I cook a mean one, but it came out flavorful, juicy, and cooked PERCECTLY. Fries with great too. For dessert I had the blonde. Served warm and it was delicious! I also grabbed a martini to go, didn't know it was a martini bar and had the lychee one and it was great! Now for the service, most good restaurants here need to have good service or they will fail. The service here is top notch everyone was friendly, and accommodating. I want to add that I left my phone in an Uber on the way here. Had to chase it and couldn't get my phone, so I entered the restaurant all frazzled. Sat at the bar and Lauren let me use her phone to try to get it back(I did later!) and was really nice. Really turned my mood around and helped me enjoy my night out here. The rest of the workers were great too, they allowed me to stay a little later as they were closing up. When Uber didn't call back, another worker(didn't catch her name but whoever you are thank you!) offered to order me an Uber since my walk was like 40 mins home. When I declined and said I'd walk since I didn't want them to pay and didn't have cash for the street car, she gave me the $ to grab it. All in all, while it wasn't the easiest night, the workers here really turned my night around. Don't know why the reviews here are so low, and hope that people give it a try. 100% will be back ”

“ My experience was definitely a 5 out of 5! The food, the service, the vibes...all on point. Love the 80s themed - Especially loved seeing a mini panther statue that I'm pretty sure my uncle owned back in the day. And the tv/vcr combo playing 80s movies. I opted for the tasting menu, which turned out to be a great decision. First, was the steak tartare, which was a BANGER. The flavor! I would eat that ten times over. Then were the artichoke hearts on the half shell. Those were delicious! Thought I was eating a chargrilled oyster for a second. Perfectly seasoned. Then, was the smoky eggplant dip, which I probably wouldn't have ordered myself but I'm glad I got to taste it because it was also quite good. It came with a nice roti as well. I would certainly order it now. After those was the grilled cabbage & bok choy, carrot tempura, and the off-menu duck confit with crispy rice & beans. The grilled cabbage & bok choy was good but my least favorite of the night. I think the peppercorn oil in it may have been a bit overpowering for me. The carrot tempura was a delightful dish. It had curried carrot butter and came with house made ranch. Both delicious. I love a good fried veggie. The duck was just *chef's kiss*. I'm so glad that I got to try this off-menu item. Perfectly cooked and seasoned. It was tender and flavorful. The hint of mint in the dish really set it off. 10/10 dish. Lastly, for dessert was the pavlova. This was my first pavlova. Definitely not a dessert that I would select myself but I must say that it was quite good. I was glad that it wasn't too sweet and I enjoyed the fresh fruit and drizzle. It was a good dessert. The service was great - our server was extra careful to explain each dish and went over specials. She was attentive the entire time. The drinks were good as well. I had the Claro Que Tea, which was light but still potent lol. ”

“ Get the artichoke hearts on the half shell!! Want a fun restaurant that's different in NOLA? Check out Hungry Eyes. I love letting my daughters choose restaurants when we travel because they find so many unique choices. Hungry Eyes was such a fun place to meet up to celebrate a med school graduation with a very close family friend. So cute inside. Great service. Delicious food. Menu is so interesting. Lots of options for vegetarians, carnivores and omnivores. Order a bunch and eat tapas style. Started with the artichoke hearts on the half shell. ORDER THIS ONE!! Chili, garlic and Parmesan crusted artichoke hearts served with crusty sourdough bread. They come 3 to an order, but our hostess added one for our party of 4. Soooo delicious!! Other starters were the eggplant dip served with roti and steak tartare. The eggplant dip was so smooth and smoky. Covered in sesame seeds and topped with cucumbers, tomatoes and herbs, it was a great way to start a celebration dinner. The grilled pastrami was another must try. Thin slices of fresh pastrami grilled on a skewer. Served with crisp, fresh lettuce, beets, pickled veggies and herbs, make a lettuce wrap and enjoy. So good. The grilled cabbage and bok choy rounded out our tasting menu. They both paired perfectly with the pastrami. From the tapas style meal, cool ambiance and great service where our water glasses were never empty, which was very appreciated on a balmy Friday night in New Orleans, this was a great choice. Would definitely recommend for something unexpected. ”

“ Mmm. Happy to know about their Saturday steak night. Fun 80s themed spot with a small but tasty menu. Patio out back is nice too! Staff was super accommodating and knowledgeable around our food allergies and needs. Great down to earth date night spot. Snag a resy beforehand and you're solid ”

“ The espresso martini and cosmo were so bad that I sent both back, and I never send things back in restaurants. The fries with garlic sauce (toum) and sourdough ciabatta were both good (we did have to request butter for the bread, and they brought us the most hilarious presentation of butter - see the picture). As someone else has said, the interior is pretty bad, the music was strangely nowhere near 80's music - they played tribal and Latin music the entire time we were there. It's a small place and service was fine. They do automatically add an 18% charge to your check. I would not come back. ”
