This is a cozy comfortable place with great food and staff, practically hiding next to the Fontenot Hotel, a short walk from Caesar's casino and the Canal and Poydras Street hotels and the Riverwalk. It has a lovely bar and excellent but not foo-foo menu. We'd love it even more if they turned the music down a bit, but we could hear each other. We'll be back.

We celebrated our first anniversary at the Grill Room and can easily say we’ve never had such a positive and delicious experience!! The staff were so friendly and professional, and made us feel so special— they even brought out some chocolate strawberries for us in celebration of our evening. The food and drinks were outstanding, and we enjoyed every single bite. It was such a lovely time, and we couldn’t recommend it more.
