Desi Vega’s Seafood & Steaks Will Open in Metairie This August | Eater New Orleans

"I report that Desi Vega is bringing his next meaty restaurant, Desi Vega’s Seafood & Steaks, to an office building on Vets in Metairie; it will open in early August in the spot that was Ralph Brennan’s Heritage Grill. In addition to the red meat expected from Vega, he plans to serve steamed crabs and lobster, three types of Gulf fish in various preparations each day, and plenty of other seafood. Vega is not entirely new to the Metairie market—he’s a partner in the Shipley Do-Nuts that opened recently in Old Metairie—and the new restaurant will do lunch, dinner, and happy hour." - Stephanie Carter
