Tana is an upscale Italian restaurant drawing from local Chef Michael Gulotta's New Orleans Sicilian upbringing as well as his time training in the Liguria region of Italy.

Experience cocktails in our comfy lounge with jewel toned plush booths and ambient lighting. Dine in the classically Italian styled main room with wood beams or The Villa, which is light and airy with lots of natural light, as if you're dining al fresca on the Sicilian coast.

    Third time we've been here... each time gets better. The glazed octopus is one of the best dishes we've ever eaten.

    Food was amazing and full of flavor from everything we ordered. The pasta cart was so cool to watch and the cook was very knowledgeable while preparing the pasta table side. The restaurant ambience is gorgeous, we will definitely be back.

    Wonderful experience. Celebrated our 25th Anniversary here, and staff was so warm and welcoming and accommodating . Food was outstanding. They even gave us complimentary sparkling wine to celebrate the event and decorated our dessert for the occasion. Will definitely be back!

    The food and cocktails were outstanding. We enjoyed our experience. My own personal opinion is that I was not a fan of sitting close to other diners along the booth of tables. Tana is a place that I would like to return to because other items on the menu looked great.

    The night out at Tana was off the charts. I dined on the pasta in squid ink and it was superb. My wife had the shrimp dish and pasta and again it was excellent. The meatball and squid small plate was incredible. The cocktails were equal to the meal in their excellence.

    My wife and I ate here for Valentine’s Day. We had the Oyster Bordelaise appetizer to start. The oyster were cooked perfectly, with a light batter but still an excellent texture and very tasteful seasoning and accompaniment. Caesar salad was also ordered and one of the better salads I’ve had in a quite some time. I order the 6oz Steak and my wife had the shrimp pasta. The pasta was cooked perfectly, excellent sauce and sizeable shrimp (also cooked nicely) Steak was great and so were the roasted potato and mushroom argodolce. First time there. We will definitely be back. Service was also excellent.

    Great service and very comfortable. Although we didn’t have drinks the bar area looked inviting. Food was above average especially the fried oyster appetizer. Cezar salad was outstanding. Nice wine list. We will be back.
