Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in Lakeview/Gentilly

Table was ready on time as per our reservation. Char grilled oysters were good as usual. I had Caesar with salmon. It was good but salmon was just a bit fishy tasting. Cocktails were delicious. Highlight of the evening was definitely the service, Heidi was outstanding, delivering flawless service. It was a very enjoyable experience.

Amazing brunch we loved the pancake egg hash sausage skillet - it should be added to the menu. Great service and shout out to Thea and our waitress whose name I didn’t get. She was fun and friendly and just great. Toups never disappoints.

The food at Cafe Degas was really fabulous. 3 of us had the pompano special, and we all though it was outstanding. We've eaten there many times, and the food is always delicious. I called ahead to ask for a relatively quiet table, and we were kindly accommodated, with a lovely table in a corner. The restaurant is in a quaint house in a beautiful mostly residential neighborhood, so the ambiance can't be beat. I highly recommend this lovely establishment. Reservations are required, since it's always busy. You won't be sorry you planned ahead!

My friend and I booked a table at Vessel this evening and found our experience to have met our high expectations. Our reservation was set for 6:30 and we were seated at 6:30. Our waiter greeted us with a very pleasant demeanor and provided us with excellent recommendations. We both ordered the Salmon with Brussel Sprouts and our dishes arrived in a timely fashion. The fish was prepared to perfection and the brussel sprouts were seasoned impeccably. Our entire experience did not disappoint and we will be recommending this beautiful restaurant to family and friends.

The whole experience was outstanding from the time we entered the restaurant. Our server Tito was exceptional; he was attentive to every detail. This visit is an annual Christmas tradition for us and Ralph’s has never let us down.
