The Court of Two Sisters

What The Court of Two Sisters does

The Court of Two Sisters is a historic French Quarter restaurant in New Orleans located at 613 Royal Street, operated by the Fein family since 1963 within a building whose three-story structure dates to 1832. The venue serves tourists, local residents, destination wedding couples, and private-event hosts through three core dining experiences: a daily Live Jazz Brunch Buffet priced at $39 for adults and $18 for children ages 5-12 (omelet and carving stations, Creole classics, desserts), a Creole À la Carte Dinner menu served Thursday-Monday featuring dishes such as Gulf fish meunière, crawfish pasta, and tableside flambéed Bananas Foster, and a cocktail bar offering classics (French 75, Sazerac, Ramos Gin Fizz) and award-winning house specialties priced $10-$14.

The business operates a direct-to-consumer restaurant model with reservations for parties of 1-8 routed through the Explore Tock platform and larger parties plus weddings handled by an in-house sales and event team. Revenue is diversified across daily dining, private events (capacity up to 500 guests across four named spaces — Royal Court, Grand Marquis, Terrace, Courtyard — anchored by the French Quarter's largest private courtyard), retail merchandise (cookbook $24, apparel, candles, coffee and chicory, ornaments), and gift cards including a $99 gift-card-plus-signed-cookbook bundle.

The underlying technology platform is conventional hospitality infrastructure: a Wix-based website, the Tock reservation integration, a third-party e-gift-card manager, and USPS-based merchandise fulfillment. There is no proprietary software, mobile application, or AI capability. The Fein family has extended the brand into a sibling concept, Two Sisters on Bourbon, a casual po'boy shop and bar at 612 Bourbon Street opened in 2024, while corporate parent or institutional investment is absent — the business remains privately held under continuous family stewardship.
