This has been a long time coming. Another restaurant on the Point. Serving weekend Brunch, lunch and dinner.
It's currently a limited menu, but I overheard the owner tell fellow patrons that more deliciousness will follow.
Smart.... start small and take off big. This dinner did not disappoint.
The whole vibe was casual french bistro, a place to grab a glass of wine or beverage, enjoy a great meal and meet up with friends and new visitors. Reservations just make things easier folks, so do them a favor. its pretty easy online these days or just call.
They did have room to accommodate everyone on this busy night, those with and without reservations.
Onward....
a Mai Tai for this polynesian gal and she was perfect to start the evening. We ordered 2 salads, the escargot and the French Onion soup. Simply delicious, the dressing on the Lentil Salad was so memorable, I'm still thinking about it...even had my son grabbing a second helping. That alone speaks volumes.
The BEST shaved salad in New Orleans is what you'll experience in the Bruxelles salad, like wow to the texture, so delicate.
I heard the French Onion soup sold out, we can attest it was fantastic. It was busy and by the time we ordered the mains the trout Almondine was sold out (oh well, there's next time!). We opted for the L'Smash Burger, a healthy 2 patty monster and frites; I ordered the Croque Madame which was so grand that she had to go home with us along her court of frites. We were full and stuffed, but we squeezed a bit of room for the dessert option which was of course.....Creme Brûlée, served with a side of jam which I found to be a delightful lagniappe. A crackling sugar top protected the sumptuous creamy vanilla layer. Oh Heaven!
Overall we are so thrilled to embrace our newest neighborhood restaurant. I can see many a meal here, with fam, friends, or just a getaway.
While we were waiting for the bill, a couple seated at the window table near the bar approached the owner and made reservations to return. Their enthusiastic request completely summed up the quality, service and vibes just perfectly.
Bravo Chef Freddy, you shined beyond expectations and this was day 2?!!! To the owners and management, a resounding
Merci!!!!
