Best Seasonal Restaurants in St. Bernard

We did the omakase for 7 people for a special occasion. Definitely the best meal I have ever had and our whole party was blown away by the quality and artistry. The chefs were so fun and explained things so well. The waitstaff were also very knowledgeable about the drinks and food and went out of their way for us. The restaurant’s ambience is excellent and it’s connected to the international house hotel which is gorgeous (go see the Banksys in the lobby!) Having done 2 other 10+ course fine dining experiences I definitely think this was worth the price. Add-ons you can choose include sake pairing ($70 for 4 large pours) as well as various food things like caviar service. The members of our party who did the sake pairing felt it was absolutely worth the cost as well. There was also a special dessert surprise at the end which we didn’t expect! We are all absolutely dying to do this again, hopefully someday soon!

My wife, son, and I visited while on vacation for our 15th anniversary (wife and I of course, son is 5). Food was amazing and the staff were great. The history of the Bananas Foster makes the sugary dish even better… a must visit when in New Orleans.

Service great from the moment we walked in. Enjoyed every bite. My barracuda was slightly over cooked but nothing disappointing and the sauces that accompanied it with the sides were outstanding. Had a great experience, and a place I would definitely recommend in the French Quarter.

Great steaks dinner at Chophouse New Orleans tonight. The crab bisque was to die for. Their Chophouse salad was ok. Our 8 oz. filet mignon and 10 oz. NY strip steaks were cooked perfectly to our orders for them to be cooked to Medium. We actually prefer Medium Rare but our waiter told us they tend to cook on the rare side and our experiences having steaks at restaurants the past few years has been that most are tending to cook Medium Rare to what my wife and I consider to be Rare. Their side dish of mushrooms was delectable. The Key Lime pie for dessert was good. It’s whipped cream on top was very thick and very cold. Decent wine list. I had a glass of Groth Cabernet Sauvignon. And a shot of Angel’s Envy on a rock (the ice cube was about 1.5” x 1.5” x 4”, a mini iceberg😁) before we ordered our dinners. At $18. that’s the cheapest shot of Angel’s Envy I’ve ever had anywhere. Our only nits were: 1) We told our waiter at the end the butter for the loaf of bread was hard as a brick. 2) The bread was like a short baguette, not pre-sliced. My wife asked the server for a knife to cut it and they merely pointed to the butter knife on her bread plate. That was totally inadequate to the task of slicing a loaf of fresh soft bread. Plus, being SF Bay Area natives, we are used to the tang of sourdough bread and a lot of restaurants’ plain breads, while they may be soft, freshly baked and warm, just taste blah to us.

Our server (Roland's?..sorry not good with names)...was absolutely adorable and her service was impeccable...
