Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Isaac Toups

From the OpenTable editors: Multi-James Beard Award-nominated chef and Louisiana native Issac Toups’s namesake restaurant is a celebration of all things meat. Like his mentor Emeril Lagasse, Toups gives Cajun classics a sophisticated spin with signature dishes like a double-cut pork chop with dirty rice and cane syrup gastrique. A rustic-chic space with a shaded plant-decked patio, pitch-perfect wines, and an extensive bourbon collection add to the lively vibe—just as a New Orleans restaurant should be.

    Very unique menu that is a carnivor's delight! Lamb neck and chicken confit were off the chain good. Also highly recommend the Meatery Board, which offers a variety of their offerings.

    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!
