Restaurants near West Side Shopping Center

A classic for a reason. So much history within these walls but also an expertly prepared meal with warm and congenial service.

The pork belly and blackened trout were outstanding. Our waitress, Wendy, was attentive and made great recommendations. Thanks Wendy!

We recently celebrated my birthday at GW Fins with my wife and in-laws, and it was an incredible experience! From the moment we arrived, the ambiance was perfect for a celebratory night out—elegant yet relaxed. The Scalibut GW Fins original was absolutely to die for. The halibut was cooked to perfection, tender and flaky, and topped with seared scallops that were bursting with flavor. The total red shrimp had a meaty, lobster-like texture that elevated the dish to another level. Every bite was simply exquisite. What truly made the evening unforgettable, however, was the service. Marco took care of us with warmth and professionalism, making sure every detail was just right. It was clear that he genuinely cared about our experience, and his recommendations were spot on. If you’re in New Orleans and craving exceptional seafood with top-notch service, look no further than GW Fins. I’m already looking forward to our next visit!
