Best Neighborhood Gem Restaurants in St. Bernard

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.

Enjoyed our dining experience at RedFish last night however the musician outside playing in the street was excessively loud and right in front of the windows. I feel bad for the establishment because had we not had a reservation I would have quickly moved past it to a quieter location. Luckily we were seated in the back and could not hear it too much. Service and dinner was exceptional - loved the cornbread !!

This experience raised the bar too high as an introduction to our stay in the French Quarter. Demetrius was our server and I’ve never met a finer, more articulate nor entertaining professional. We laughed, exclaimed, toasted, and were even sad to leave. At the second toast, I already knew it would take a miracle to experience anything like that during our short stay. We had the bruschetta, duck st Philip, Parma prosciutto salad and wine. Everything was exquisite!

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!
