Restaurants near Independence Historic District

We celebrated with friends and had a great time at Tana. But were sorry to see they no longer offer valet parking. It was a busy night but our wait staff was good and attentive and Nick was excellent! The whole place was full so the noise level was high and conversation a bit difficult between us but we really enjoyed the overall vibe. Two of us loved the appetizer of perfectly done Oysters Bordelaise and wanted to lick the plates! And we also had the delicious Gulf Shrimp Paccheri which was a delight with its perfectly cooked shrimp and handmade pasta in a not too overpowering complex red sauce. However, the Braised Meatballs were nothing special and the Creamy Italian Salad was made from a whole head of butter lettuce dressed well but tasted like there was fennel in it which made for an odd taste. Then two had the Four Cheese Ravioli with truffle cream which was VERY rich but rather mediocre.The home-made pasta was very large and well done but very little taste of the truffle. We were all too satiated for dessert but will definitely be back again even if we have to drive out to Metairie for the top-notch service and food.

Our second time here and we’ll definitely be back

Server brought us drink menu but didn’t come back to take our order until I gave her eye contact.

We visited this restaurant for our anniversary. The food and drinks were delicious. Our meals consisted of the red fish special, pork chop special, the pasta and a filet. Along with the tuna appetizer, chicken and andouille gumbo and creme brulee dessert and the chocolate dessert. The restaurant was packed and it was very loud, but our server was great. Food came out promptly. We only had to wait for drinks, but considering how busy they were, it was understandable. Next time we are in the Hammond area, we plan to dine again! Definitely worth the money!

It was a rainy Saturday night my family and I had the best service with our waiter,Cameron. He made excellent suggestions for the appetizers. The bread board was wonderful,and the deviled eggs were the best ! My steak was perfect,and my daughter’s seafood gnocchi was excellent . Will definitely be back !
