Wine Room
The Wine Room is the ultimate retreat for vinophiles. Set within the restaurant’s custom-built glass and wood wine cellar, guests have an up-close view of the 10,000-bottle inventory. The wine room’s original design concept was based on Louisianna’s Trapper Cabins. The room is set with a contemporary graphic rug, beautiful mahogany table, and a series of pendants which depict old gas lanterns. Featured floor length sheers ground the room and don a series of serpents, typical to be found within a trapper’s cage. The Wine Room also boasts a private entrance off Bienville St., allowing those who have booked it direct access. The wine room is equipped with flat-screen televisions for entertainment or presentations.
Accomodates up to 12 guests.
Storyville Parlor
Mention Storyville and thoughts turn to New Orleans’ infamous “Redlight District.” But beyond the sin and circumstance of this storied “entertainment district,” most New Orleans homes boasted opulent parlors filled with elegant furnishings, enchanting music, and exquisite fare.
Our formal Storyville Parlor showcases a magnificent 1830s Italian chandelier. Mural artist Grahame Menage hand-applied the gold leaf and created the stunning murals on the parlor walls, which depict scenes of Louisiana’s rich culinary and cultural past. The room is appointed with high-backed, corner settees for two, upholstered in a soft green velvet, creating a contemporary monochromatic look. This interior invites guests to feel as though they are within the mural itself. The signature R’ door knobs leading into the parlor were cast in Lithuania, a region popular for decorative hardware casting since the 18th century. The large, antiqued mirror features a peek-a-boo to the bar and a handwritten homage to Chef John Folse’s classic turtle soup recipe.
Accomodates up to 25 guests.
Market Room
The design of the Market Room, with its black-and-white marble floors and subway-tiled walls, pays homage to Solari’s Delicatessen, a French Quarter institution for nearly 100 years. Though the room has a contemporary look, the arched opening of the expo kitchen conveys an aura of New Orleans’ French market. One of the most exciting because of its action-packed atmosphere. The gleaming exposition kitchen, located within the Market Room, showcases a massive rotisserie and a brick oven. The custom-crafted iron and brass hood is reminiscent of a mid-1800s kitchen. The exposition kitchen table for 6 might be the best seat in the house. Made from reclaimed sinker cypress wood buried in Louisiana silt for more than 100 years. The table manufacturer contacted “scuba loggers” from the popular television show “Ax Men” to reclaim 2,000-year-old trees with 25-50 rings per inch. The Market Room dining table is a walnut slab with seating for 10. This table is surrounded by the dry-aged meat coolers.
Entire room accomodates up to 24. Market Table accomodates up to 10.
Chef Table– Chef Folse’s Room
For the ultimate experience, guests can reserve the Chef’s Table Dining Room, fondly known as Chef Folse’s Room, overlooking the restaurant’s main kitchen line. The monochromatic room oozes a deep navy blue hue to achieve the essence of a gentleman’s library. Bookcases lacquered in blue, with antiqued mirror and brass accents showcase Chef Folse’s most dear possessions and accolades, unseen by the public eye. An exotic veneer table transforms from a small round for intimate dinners, to a large round for a group of six to ten. A contemporary chandelier nods to our coastal waters with shell like glass shades. In this private room, culinary enthusiasts have an exclusive bird’s-eye view of the cuisine in action.
Accomodates up to 12 guests.
Courtyard Room
Typical Creole design allowed guests to enjoy the outdoors without suffering stifling heat, humidity, or pouring rain. The serene feel of Restaurant R’evolution’s Courtyard Room accomplishes the same goal by embracing the view of the courtyard and evoking the feeling of a contemporary conservatory garden. Semi-elliptical fanlight windows rest gracefully above the French doors of this elegantly furnished room of bench-style settees, smoke bell pendant lighting, floral draperies and a classic hand-woven inspired rug. The timeless art layer atop the soft green walls to create a classic sophisticated atmosphere. The rooms collected feeling transports guests into an environment reminiscent of a beautiful southern mansion overlooking a garden.
Accomodates up to 25.
Bienville Suite
Originally named for New Orleans’ founder and Louisiana’s first governor, Jean-Baptiste Le Moyne, Sieur de Bienville, the suite offers a view of Bienville Street and the goings-on of the French Quarter. Reminiscent of a traditional southern front porch, this room acts as a welcoming experience for guests that draws inspiration from the energy and vibrancy of the street. The blue painted ceiling harkens back to a traditional application of paint that was used in New Orleans homes to deter many things. The “haint” blue was first used by Creole born New Orleanians. A tradition brought to New Orleans from enslaved West Africans, they did this to deter “haints,” or evil spirits, from coming inside the house and harming the family. As years passed, the tradition of painting the porch ceiling blue grew to deter insects, and extend daylight hours. Set with bench-style settees, the room is accented with floor-length linen draperies, faceted glass, and brass sconces. Antique, white-glazed, hutch-style wait stations enhance the room.
Accomodates up to 40 guests.
