    Great steak and fish. Filet perfectly done. Redfish very nice. Fried oyster app is very popular for a reason. King cake dessert insanely sweet and served with vanilla ice cream. Tables are physically small and hard to fit four plus plates and glasses. Another of the Brennan restaurants so you know it’s deliberate. Lots of traffic on a Sunday night but it’s the FQ. It’s on our rotation - very reliable.

    The food was fabulous. If you want good service with a great steak come here. We sat at the piano bar and had a wine prior to dinner the piano player was exception both playing and singing. We started with the chopped salad that had a really good Italian dressing.. My husband and I had the bone in ribeye with a loaded baked potato with sautéed onion and mushrooms. Was scrumptious. Highly recommend. It has an old school steak house feel. Very dark and sexy atmosphere. The service was outstanding. .

    Vessel NOLA was quite an experience. From the hostess to waitstaff, everyone was very friendly and helpful. The decor was great for a romantic evening or a casual dinner date. The food was impeccable. If you’re ever in NOLA, I’d recommend visiting Vessel NOLA. Great food, nice ambiance and an awesome staff.

    As usual, we had a very good experience. We had one of our two preferred servers (Rivers and Sarah) take care of us. Rivers was accommodating and attentive; Sarah stopped by to say hello. The Sardinian red was a very good match for the new funghi pizza. We asked Rivers about the availability of fresh thyme for the pizza and he brought some out. It turned a very good pie into an excellent one. The molten chocolate tort was outstanding.

    The yellowfin tuna tartare, firecracker tuna tacos, and BBQ shrimp were very fresh and delicious. The complimentary biscuits were served right out the oven and cooked to perfection. I was blown away at how good the Golden Beet salad was, and it was perfect paired with the Scalibut and Parmesan crusted sheepshead. I was pleasantly surprised with the entree fish portion sizes and to top it off, our waiter, Cardale, was phenomenal!
