Ruffino's -Steak-Seafood-Italian restaurant is an experience in food and atmosphere like no others. From the time you walk in and see the wood-burning stove aflame to the beautiful smiles on every Ruffino's team member's face, you will have goosebumps on the back of your neck for the dining journey that awaits you. From our wonderful signature Crabmeat Cheesecake appetizer to our mind blowing Cedar Plank-baked Catch or our mouth watering Prime cut steaks, the menu is diverse for everyone. The relaxed but swinging music along with perfect lighting and energy make this the ultimate restaurant in Louisiana. It's where Louisiana Comes to Celebrate Life!

    Everything was top notch! We needed to add 3 people to our reservation and they were very accommodating. We enjoyed the apps, main courses, desserts, and drinks. The service and ambience is unbelievable.. they make you want to stay in there all day! Our out of town guests said that they would be back to Ruffino’s next time they’re in town. Best all around!
