Restaurants near Colonial Shopping Center

Our experience, starting with Maitre De and moving to the service of the staff was light hearted and as delicious our meal. Started with a perfect sazerac ( or was it two?). Then we were served a lovely meal.. We didn’t really want to leave, but it was curtain time. We will be back soon.

Wonderful food and experience. My wife is Italian from New York City. She told Mary, one of the owners, that this was the best Italian food she has had outside New York and Italy. The service was expedient, the food was hot, the Lavazza coffee was delicious and the perfect complement to the cannoli. Ristorante Filippo went to the top of our list of Italian restaurants in Southeast Louisiana.

The staff from the front seat to the wait staff was so warm and accommodating! We had Kristen as our server and we will ask for her each time from now on. The steaks and the salmon were so good and the salad was huge and so fresh!! It was a delightful evening!

My wife and I ate here for Valentine’s Day. We had the Oyster Bordelaise appetizer to start. The oyster were cooked perfectly, with a light batter but still an excellent texture and very tasteful seasoning and accompaniment. Caesar salad was also ordered and one of the better salads I’ve had in a quite some time. I order the 6oz Steak and my wife had the shrimp pasta. The pasta was cooked perfectly, excellent sauce and sizeable shrimp (also cooked nicely) Steak was great and so were the roasted potato and mushroom argodolce. First time there. We will definitely be back. Service was also excellent.

A must try New Orleans gem. Glad we “accidentally” found this very cozy little place with fantastic food and second to none service. Bravo !!!!
