    The food and service was phenomenal as usual. I did not like sitting in the Frank Sinatra room, however. It felt like I was being punished….lol. I like being part of the larger dining rooms. A suggestion would be to be asking people if they would like to sit there.

    New Orleans level flavor and service but safe at home on the Northshore! Everything was so perfectly done I can’t wait to go back. Meal progression was timed perfectly between courses. Wait staff was courteous and friendly but didn’t spend too much time conversing with guests to be intrusive. Pork Belky and Brussels sprouts were amazing. Definitely recommend.

    The staff is trained well which helped the overall experience. When you spend a half of a Franklin for a filet mignon, I expect a center cut! The filets were end cuts and tough. I have had much better steaks at Rip’s on The Lake and Nuvolari’s in Mandeville, Louisiana. When you spend $200.00 for two people at a purported upscale steak house you expect a quality product!

    Stephanie and Shane T were wonderful wait staff and had a sense of humor too! I am not a steak eater to be honest, but the rest of the group thinks they make the best steaks in town and for me. I think that their seafood menu is plenty good for me.! They had an interesting Mardi Gras cocktail menu so if you’re going during the season, make sure to check it out. - great milk punch . See you soon☺️
