About this restaurant

  • Lively
  • Charming
  • Great for creative cocktails
Sunnies is Uptown New Orleans' newest hidden gem, a swanky watering hole inspired by 1970s Palm Springs and present day Miami. Sunnies is a no frills destination for great cocktails, lunch, brunch, happy hour, and dinner. Wander through the stylish cocktail bar and find yourself lounging around a heated resort-style pool with delicious shared plates, thoughtful entrees, inventive drinks, and a curated yet approachable wine list. Freret Street’s most refreshing destination — when the sun goes down the vibe transforms from a sun lit pool to a sensual cocktail lounge and the ultimate dinner date spot complete with fire pits and a fresh playlist. Menu favorites are the Lobster Rolls, Sunnies Sliders, Tuna Crudo, Brussels Caesar Salad, and the Baked Salmon entree with Dill Butter and Sweet Potato Hash. Ample gluten free options.

    Generous happy hour menu for food and drink choices. Top notch food overall. Their chef really knows flavors!! I usually don’t rave about fries but DUDE these are bangin!! Also hands down the best fried frogs legs I have ever had anywhere (although those won’t be on the menu for much longer I hear 😢). Kudos to the mushroom sliders and deviled eggs as well. Went during a slow period for the pool outside so stayed all day enjoying the amenities. Lots of places to sit overall when not swimming.

    The pool and tables were super packed. The water was grey. We decided to leave after being seated.

    I’ve been here once before for lunch on a weekday and the food was great! Yesterday it left a lot to be desired. The grilled cheese was hardly grilled and had a HAIR in it and the tuna in the tuna cucumber crudo was sinewy. On top of that, at least three of the wines we tried to order were out. Also, I understand it’s family day but maybe there needs to be a limit on the number of children. My kids refused to stay in the pool because it was cloudy and full of hair and it was only 5:30pm at that point. I can’t imagine what it looked like by 8pm.
