I have eaten at this restaurant many times. The food is always excellent. But on this trip, the steak was a little under par. The stone crab appetizers were awesome.

We moved to New Orleans over 6 years ago, one of the draws was the vast possibilities for dining out. Although we will probably never exhaust our list of places to try we return again and again to GW Fins. It’s been #1 on our list for years now because they consistently deliver the best dining experience on every level, first and foremost the quality of the food and service. Last night was another perfect meal from appetizer to dessert, and Marlon was delightful. Much praise and many thanks go to Gary Wollerman and Chef Michael Nelson.

My husband won’t go anywhere else for red fish! I had the LA Cobb salad with shrimp and crab and it was the perfect light supper. Service was great and nice ambience, but it is a little noisy. I highly recommend Red Fish Grill!

We were a party of four, and we enjoyed our dinner at Mr. B’s. Rah was our server, and he took great care of us. For appetizers we enjoyed the Truffle fries and the fried oysters. Delicious! For entrees, we had the Filet, Gumbo yaya, Wedge salad, and Shrimp & Grits. All was Wonderful for dessert. We shared the Pecan pie and the Crème Brûlée. Would definitely dine again.
