Little Vic’s

Good gelato. Try the caramel. It was truly worth the trip. The prices were decent and the server was super nice.

Love Little Vic’s… Heartwarming people in addition to great menu!!! Love the courtyard!

Whoever the lady is that has been answering the phone at night around 9 – 10 pm is so rude. I called tonight and I called once last week to ask about food items that I saw on display while I was walking to work.
I had a bisque from here last year and I get coffee from here very frequently. I met the owner when they first opened and he used to being me samples all the time. Their food is amazing but whoever the woman is that’s in charge of answering the phone the last two weeks needs to be fired. She has the worst customer service skills in the world and she makes you feel like you’re bothering her with questions you should already know the answer to.

The gelato here was alright. The man at the counter was super friendly and let us try a variety of flavors! The only one that had a lasting impression on me was the orange-​chocolate (sounds weird but pretty refreshing!). Aside from that, I thought the gelato wasn’t nearly rich or flavorful enough. Halfway through my biscotti, I seriously questioned whether I was eating gelato or soft serve.
Also, definitely get the cone. You get so much less ice cream with the cup.

The outdoor patio is gorgeous in the evening! I went on Christmas Day so it was decorated with lights and wreaths. The waiter was very nice and helpful. I got the vegetable pizza and it was delicious. My cousin and sister ate the pepperoni pizza and said it was amazing. I recommend this place to anyone that loves good pizza. They also have really good ice cream. I recommend the peanut butter and strawberry cheesecake ice cream.

Came here quick for affagado (gelato with espresso poured on top)! It was very good, I hope to come back soon to try their food!

Loved this little place! I work on Royal, so I’ve been trying to find a cute getaway for lunch that isn’t super crowded. Little Vic’s fits my needs perfectly! I had the BBQ sandwich, which was great, and my boyfriend had the Sicilian hot dog, which is basically a calzone with a hot dog in it (which is obviously amazing!). We split a side of risotto and loved every minute of it.
Incredibly reasonable prices, which I didn’t think were possible in the French Quarter. A good amount of food for your buck, and a cozy, eclectic atmosphere to boot! After lunch, peruse their many flavors of gelato to find something perfect to hit that sweet spot! Since it was chilly, we opted for a gorgeous chocolate chip cannoli and it was absolutely fantastic. Can’t wait to come back when it’s warmer so we can enjoy the adorable, historic courtyard and a big cone of gelato! Chocolate cheesecake has my name on it…

Great little Sicilian café just off of Bourbon St! You know it’s a quality place when in the course of your lunch, two food tours come through! I had a panini with the risotto, and both were delicious. The panini was nice and crisp loaded with turkey, cheese, avocado, and pesto, each individual component shining through. The risotto was good too, if possibly a little on the thick side. Service was fast and friendly as well! I would definitely recommend it if you need a break from all of the Cajun food in the French Quarter.

Needed food late night on Halloween that actually had space to accommodate 6 people so we found this place. I got the PLT sandwich which was pretty good but the prosciutto was a bit too salty for me. I also got a drink but can’t remember what it was called! It was good but not super strong. Overall, it’s a good option if you’re nearby and hungry but I think if I came back I’d try something else. They have a nice outdoor patio area too but it was night so didn’t sit out there. Staff is friendly and nice despite being very busy!

After much drinking Halloween night, finding a decent place to eat that’s not too crowded off Bourbon for 6 people was seriously difficult. Thankfully, Little Vic’s had a huge table in the back to accommodate our group and quick service despite the nonsense all around.
Lots of good options, but settled on the Papa Vic ($ 10). Flavorful pulled pork sandwich that doesn’t look like much coming out, but incredibly dense ingredients. The meal came with a side of risotto, made with a seafood broth that dominated the taste. As good as the food was, I had too many beers beforehand to finish the whole thing.
Really tempted on the desserts here as well, just didn’t have room. Solid place for a filling meal at a decent price.

Love this place!
My boyfriend and I were craving something sweet and found that this place served gelato on Unilocal!
They serve Italian food also, and we will def try the food when we come back to New Orleans!
There is a little gelato display when you first walk in. The guy there was so sweet and gave us some good advice on places to check out.
We ate the gelato so fast we forgot to take pics!

I just came in off the street for a gelato and it was fantastic. I got the craving from discussing desserts with our taxi driver. He recommended a place in the French Quarters, but I couldn’t remember the name of it. I highly recommend Little Vic’s gelato. It’s better than Sucre’s gelato.

This place was fantastic! We had the lasagna and a salad with homemade italian dressing, and the Etna panini with risotto. It was all very delicious! The homemade italian dressing was oh so good, and the lasagna was yummy as well. They went a little heavy on the cheese with the risotto, but it was still pretty darn good. The panini was crispy and very well-​done and filling. We also had biscotto gelato that was FANTASTIC. It was hard making a choice because every one we sampled was really good.
The courtyard is soooo pretty, too, with these great string lights and a wonderful atmosphere. Our waitress was very nice as well.

We came here two nights during our stay in New Orleans.
On the first night, we had the ziti and the Etna panini. Our server was very sweet, offering to switch out the chicken in the panini for avocado when I told her I was a vegetarian. It was such a lovely dinner that we came again the next night.
On the second night, we shared a potato pizza. The portion is very big– four Sicilian slices. VERY filling! It was delicious, the best thing we tried at Little Vic’s. We also tried the arancini, which is a fried rice ball filled with spinach, feta, or ragu.
Great service at Vic’s. The ambiance is simple and bright, with lovely beaded artwork along the walls and a charming quiet courtyard if you want to sit outside. Vic’s is a perfect place for a balmy summer evening when you want to get away from the craziness of the French Quarter bars.

I’m going to admit that we were a little drunk when we made our way over here from Molly’s…
But, they have food and sweets in a pretty convenient part of the French Quarter. Prices aren’t going to make you cry if you take a date here.
The Amaretto gelato was amazing. It’s great for kids, you can find better food than you’ll find on Bourbon for a quarter of the price, and the lady behind the counter was super nice and chatty to everyone who came up to the counter.

We loved this placed! We brought our family and there weren’t too many family friendly places near our hotel. They had a beautiful outdoor dining area that was quiet and breezy. The food was fantastic– we got a panini, a cheese pizza and gelato. By far, our favorite dining experience during our stay.

I LOVE IT!!! They have the best gelato I have ever had!!! Get the biscotti gelato! Be careful though because it’s very hot/​humid so it melts quickly. The strawberry cheesecake was good too. I tried SOOO many flavors. I liked it a lot. I will come here for Gelato again when I come back to New Orleans FOR SURE! :)
I wouldn’t recommend the pizza though because I didn’t quite like it. The crust was too hard. I feel like she over heated my pizza. The staff seemed new, which is totally fine. HOWEVER, the lady helping me was kind of rude. She was borderline rude and nice. She wasn’t understanding me at all! English is my first language woman! Just listen to the words coming out of my mouth. She had NO CLUE how to pour a beer from the tap. I wanted to buy it, but I decided it wasn’t worth it if she was pouring it. However, the Strawberry Lagar, I definitely recommend it. She let me try some which was so kind of her. However she was giving me a lot of weird looks when I was talking to her. I don’t know what her deal was. She was kind of on the older side. The girl working the gelato area was very new and didn’t know much about the menu or anything, and I overheard them saying she would be by herself the next day. She didn’t even seem like she knew how to work the register. :(

Little Vic’s Ice Cream statue was a welcomed sight as I walked around the French Quarter on a hot, humid day.
For $ 3.75, you’ll receive a small scoop of gelato while a large will set you back $ 5.50. (A large is equivalent to about two scoops)
Each flavor is homemade daily and I’m told, depending on the mood of the chef, the flavors can change daily as well. If you come in here and see either the Biscotti or Straciatella flavors, GET THEM BOTH! The biscotti has biscotti cookie crumbs mixed into the creamy, light chocolate dessert and the straciatella is a mixture of white/​dark chocolate with diced almonds.
The other flavors I had were Pistachio and Oreo which is pretty much cookies and cream. The employees all agreed Pistachio is their best selling flavor, but I felt it tasted like peanut ice cream flavor… not an enjoyably tasting one for me.

Conclusion: After two visits during my trip in New Orleans, I feel this Italian eatery has some impressive, great tasting gelato flavors that can compete with the best in SoCal. The only major flaw on both occasions were the stale ice cream cones. Despite that, I LOVE the back of the establishment which had an open roof, christmas lights, and mimicked an Italian Courtyard– a very romantic touch. Little Vic’s is a spot worth cherishing as ice creameries are sparse within the French Quarter. I’d love to come back for their food as well.
Extra Notes:
–Accepts credit card
–Service was friendly and patient here
–Décor has local art strewn about the walls
–One TV at bar
–Restoom could be cleaner

While we only had coffee at Little Vic’s, we had a great time. They serve Lavazza, which is usually pretty good. They serve their coffee strong, which I how I like it. Like many modern coffee shops you can get a variety of coffee and espresso drinks, but I take mine black only.
They offer some food, but have a great selection of gelato flavors.
Vics has a rich history — they have a few photos up of notable people. The one that caught my interest was the one of the original Vic with JFK — it looked like JFK was still young, probably a Senator at the time.

Came to Little Vic’s on a food tour. We got not only some very good muffaletta on home baked bread, but we got to learn that Vic is a real person and it’s a family owned business. Very cool!
Nice little courtyard to step away from the busy FQ streets and relax a bit. Recommend!

Wenn einem in der Umgebung der Sinn nach Pizza steht, so hat Vic die beste Auswahl in dem Stadtteil. Ein Blech voll mit Pizza reicht locker für zwei Personen, Softdrinks und Eis gibt’s auch dazu, kein Alkohol. Das Lokal hat einen Gastgarten im Hinterhof, der ein wenig vom Trubel abschirmt, der sich draußen auf den Straßen ausbreitet. Der Besitzer ist ein freundlicher Mann!
