Reagan Swan: make sure you get the grits and fresh berries and/or belgian waffles with fresh berries if you go to breakfast at refuel. it's all to die for and everything you eat there is delectable.

Linda Shelly: Chocolate espresso bread pudding is delicious!
TripExpert: A tip from one of our professional reviewers, Fodors: "At Gautreau's, even the simple roasted chicken satisfies, and everyone should indulge in the caramelized banana split at least once." Read more.
Cheryn Robles: Roasted corn soup with lump crab was an amazing first course, gnudi and red snapper entrees were fresh and flavorful but the rhubarb tart won the evening competition.

American Restaurant · Central City - Garden · 21 tips and reviews
Judy Weitz: The catfish with crawfish sauce was amazing -- gumbo the best!
Eater: Even if it wasn’t a successful job training program for at-risk kids, the food here would still be incredibly delicious, old-school New Orleans soul food. [Eater 38 Member]
Laura White: Get the mac and cheese. And if you're here, be sure to ask what Cafe Reconcile is all about. It's much more than good food.

Karen Boudreaux: Venison was amazing! Salty but good still. Comes in a broth with gnocchi and blueberries. Surprising combo. Check out the photo I posted. Alligator, shrimp salad, and rabbit all good too.
Mike Marusin: Best meal I had in New Orleans. Fantastic service and absolutely delicious.
Jackie 🍸🎀👠 C: The best breakfast in NOLA

Krisie Fave: Food is amazing! The service was prompt and our server was fun and personable. Already planning our next visit :)
J Crowley: Great steakhouse! Cowboy steak is good but filet is the true winner. Melts in your mouth. Get a side of veal butter for dipping. Avoid the creamed spinach - it tastes the way a barn smells; like hay.
Dens: Laugh if you want about this being a touristy chain, but this was one of the best steaks I've had in a while. Filet with a bunch of the other sides (veal butter, bernaise) on the side!
