Restaurants near Lakefront Arena

Cafe Degas is one of the best restaurants in the city. The food service is always exceptional!

Wow I cannot say enough about my wonderful experience at Toups Meatery. The food was fantastic. We ordered the Meatery board to start and the cracklins were probably the best I’ve ever had. They give those meateries in Scott a run for their money! (And I think they’d beat ‘em!) basically everything on that Meatery board was great. Then we got the pork chop and it was absolutely massive, and delicious. We also sat across from the window from the kitchen and I got a front row view to how chef Toups handles his business and it was such a cool experience to be able to see him run the kitchen. I can’t wait to tell my friends and recommend them to come here!

My husband and I made a reservation here for Valentine’s Day. It was our first time in the city and to be honest we didn’t really know what to expect. The staff were wonderful! They were all so kind and worked together as a team pretty seamlessly. I don’t feel like we had to wait around for anything. The food came out quickly and tasted amazing. I got the pumpkin ravioli and my husband got the fillet with asparagus. We loved both dishes so much and left feeling satisfied. Safe to say if we come back to the city we’ll be back here for sure!

Very kind and attentive wait staff. They made a mistake with one of our orders but immediately corrected it. They went out of their way to make sure the party was still satisfied and kept an elevated dining experience.

Big shout to Rudolph and Genie they’ve been the best servers we’ve had the past three times we’ve been there! The food is delicious no complaints, the drinks were so good, but the place felt warm and inviting to stay and order more (which we did)!
