    My girlfriends and I gathered from all over the country back home in New Orleans to have a Christmas meal together. San Lorenzo exceeded exceptions. Our server Madison A made sure we had the most special dining experience and shared her knowledge of the wine selection and which would pair best with each dish of every course. We felt like family with smiles and greetings from all the staff and the overall warm atmosphere. The dining area itself is very cozy with an exclusive feel. Sort of like a secret local gem where you can come as you are and always feel like a VIP. My friends and I will definitely be making this a regular rendezvous when we’re able to make it back home and we will certainly ask to be in Madison’s section everytime!
