- KKimberleyOrlando / Central Florida East •3 reviews5.0Dined 6 days agoThe service and food was outstanding. I traveled with my daughter for my “traveling into 50” goal. This was my splurge meal in New Orleans and I was not disappointed! We both had the ribeye and then split the fries (plenty of food). Drinks were delicious and the dessert was out of this world. I decided to eat as many bread puddings as I could this trip and this was by far my favorite!More infoMerilPrice: Moderate• Contemporary American• Warehouse District•4.5
