Best Restaurants for Groups in Lakeview/Gentilly

My friends and I thoroughly enjoyed our time here. The food was delicious, our waitress was very sweet, and the wine superb!

It was a wonderful evening. My husband and I sat in one of the booths, and we had a fabulous time. The food, drinks, ambiance, and service were excellent.

I recently held my birthday dinner in the courtyard at Vessel and it couldn't have been a better experience. Everything from the ambiance to the service to the food and drinks was perfection. It's a lovely courtyard with beautiful lighting (and a tv for those wanting to keep up with whatever major game is on, though the sound was not loud or distracting in the slightest). Our server was attentive and engaging, and kept up flawlessly with our large group. The food was delicious; we ordered an assortment of items for appetizers, entrees, and desserts (my faves being the smoked fish dip, seared scallop risotto, the filet, and the key lime pie), and everything was wonderful! While we loved sitting outside, the interior is absolutely stunning and we will definitely go back to sit inside. If you live locally or are visiting, this place is definitely worth a stop.

Cafe Degas is always solid. It is my go-to restaurant for the ambience and French food. Our server, Manny was very attentive and did a great job.

My husband and I visited Toup’s for our anniversary. We made our reservation online and the restaurant was aware we were there for a special evening. They greeted us with a Happy Anniversary and brought us two mocktails as a gift. We ordered the meat board and broccoli salad to share and it was fantastic! The meats were paired well with additions on the board, the salad crisp and flavorful. 100% would revisit and recommend! Fantastic hospitality, service and flavor.
