Ruffino's -Steak-Seafood-Italian restaurant is an experience in food and atmosphere like no others. From the time you walk in and see the wood-burning stove aflame to the beautiful smiles on every Ruffino's team member's face, you will have goosebumps on the back of your neck for the dining journey that awaits you. From our wonderful signature Crabmeat Cheesecake appetizer to our mind blowing Cedar Plank-baked Catch or our mouth watering Prime cut steaks, the menu is diverse for everyone. The relaxed but swinging music along with perfect lighting and energy make this the ultimate restaurant in Louisiana. It's where Louisiana Comes to Celebrate Life!

    As always Ruffino's did not disappoint! It has been several years since we have been able to make it over to Ruffinos's for dinner since we moved out of town but it was well worth the drive! The steak was the best that I have had in a while and the Veal Michael was perfect. You can't forget the crab cheesecake! This place is definitely worth checking out if you've never been.

    Noise level energetic is an understatement. The food was good, service top notch, no complaints. But loud, had a table of 8 aholes that didn’t know how to use their “inside voice”. It kinda sucked bc it was a nice evening out with the wife for her birthday and couldn’t hear half our conversation that’s evening.
