My barracuda was slightly over cooked but nothing disappointing and the sauces that accompanied it with the sides were outstanding.

When it comes to celebrating a birthday, graduation, or just feeling alive in the Big Easy, the stage is set with buckets of seafood, cocktails in James Beard Award-winning bars, and grand dining rooms that have hosted generations of milestone events.
