Best Hot Spot Restaurants in New Orleans

Had a wonderful experience at Chophouse! We were seated a few minutes early for our reservation. The singer in the bar was wonderful. We split the lyonnaise, asparagus, and salad. My husband had a delmonico steak and I had a filet. Melt in your mouth good. We will be back!

A remarkable resturant. Terrence served our table professionally, and kindly. he was wonderful to us. The food came out promptly, and was marvelously prepared. Very flavorful, and delicious. We will go back many times. the resturant was full, perhaps 500 diners. The kitchen, and staff handled it superbly, and professionally. A top 5 dining experience.

My first visit to Vessel was phenomenal! I selected scallops with risotto and the roasted asparagus after discussing the menu with my waiter. I chose this dish based on his recommendation and was very pleased. Presentation was stunning and the food was delicious. I thoroughly enjoyed the vibes that the restaurant projected and was pleased with my interactions with the staff. I definitely will be back and will bring my coworkers with me.

My family and I ate at Domenica on Christmas Eve. The food was delicious, our server was wonderful, and the Roosevelt Hotel was magical. Everyone was dressed beautifully, and the atmosphere was warm and friendly. We will eat here many more times and especially during Christmas.

Food and service were exceptional. We had the ceviche’ and lobster ravioli appetizers then ordered Hallibut with scallops and shrimp risotto — the signature dish — and the Parmesan-crusted sheepshead with lemon butter and browned capers served either asparagus as our main courses. Everything was perfectly prepared! We ordered 3 desserts to top it all off: the salty malty ice cream pie, the white chocolate bread pudding and the chocolate mouse in a dark chocolate dome with raspberry gelee’. Perfect evening. Except for learning at the end of the night that our parking would not be validated. We were not told to bring the parking ticket to the front desk at the beginning of the night. If you go to GW Finn’s and expect to get parking validated, do not pay the garage when you park (despite the fact that all of the signs in the garage and the boots on cars are somewhat threatening in there). Instead, take your unpaid parking garage ticket directly to the front desk at the restaurant for validation with a picture of your license plate. This was the only sour note of our evening. Otherwise, it was perfect!
