I was about 10 minutes behind my reservation, the host moved my reservation to 8:00 when he noticed I would be late so that I would not lose my table. I didn't even have to call and ask. I would definitely go back to this restaurant. The stuffed salmon was delicious. The salmon was fresh, and it was a good sized portion. Even the garden salad was fresh. I had a level 2 Hurricane for my drink, and it hit the spot. It was recommended by our waiter.4/6/2013 12:00:00 AMMy second time attending andMy second time attending and enjoyed it again. I invited about 10 friends and we had a blast. The foods was not as good as the first time I visited, may have been a different cook. However, our waiter was phenomenal! The drink specials are amazing! The one negative is parking is horrible!!! It makes it hard to visit more frequently. If they instituted a valet parking I would be a regular.4/5/2013 12:00:00 AMThis was my first time toThis was my first time to TruOrleans. I enjoyed the fact that they had a DJ playing. I was there for a friend's birthday. The Happy Hour drinks were NICE (not watered down as some establishments tend to do) and the food was delicious! The guy serving us was very friendly to the point that we took a few pictures with him. It was a fun time.4/5/2013 12:00:00 AMFriendly southern restaurantFirst, kudos to TruOrleans for setting up a quality restaurant in a neighborhood that needed it badly. I'm definitely rooting for them! The service is the highlight as other reviews have noted. Sarah is exactly the personality that you want assisting you through the meal in any restaurant. The food itself is more southern--or almost native Cuban--than New Orleans. The main ingredients are the star rather than spices. The fried green tomatoes tasted like green tomatoes that had beed dusted with corn meal and fried--no sauce, little seasoning. The catfish rueben tasted like catfish in a standard rueben. I'm good with that. It's just the name "TruOrleans" creates an expectation that the food can't deliver.1/1/0001 4:00:00 PM
