Best Healthy Restaurants in Lakeview/Gentilly

Amazing way to start the year! . The food, ambiance, and service were phenomenal. The crab au gratin and Cesar salad were great and the scallops risotto and filet mignon fantastic. Drinks are truly the best in New Orleans. Vessel is one of our favorite places to dine in New Orleans.

This restaurant is the right place for lunch or dinner, anytime!! It was my first time there and I was not disappointed. The food was delicious, and the service was impeccable; Sarah was our server, and I couldn't be happier and more impressed with her service. We had some family from San Francisco for the holidays and this place added to our Christmas season!!

There were 8 of us and the Revellion menu had something for us all. Not one of the group was dissatisfied with any part of the meal. Two meals of particular brilliance were the chopping and the roasted duck. The ciopino was all Louisiana in style and in flavor. The roasted duck in a grape blueberry confit was genius and easily the best game bird I ever tasted. An honorable mention and very honorable indeed was the pork chop which was thick delicious and tender. Randy provided an excellent night of service, knowledgeable and attentive. A very professionable waiter.

Food and service were exceptional. We had the ceviche’ and lobster ravioli appetizers then ordered Hallibut with scallops and shrimp risotto — the signature dish — and the Parmesan-crusted sheepshead with lemon butter and browned capers served either asparagus as our main courses. Everything was perfectly prepared! We ordered 3 desserts to top it all off: the salty malty ice cream pie, the white chocolate bread pudding and the chocolate mouse in a dark chocolate dome with raspberry gelee’. Perfect evening. Except for learning at the end of the night that our parking would not be validated. We were not told to bring the parking ticket to the front desk at the beginning of the night. If you go to GW Finn’s and expect to get parking validated, do not pay the garage when you park (despite the fact that all of the signs in the garage and the boots on cars are somewhat threatening in there). Instead, take your unpaid parking garage ticket directly to the front desk at the restaurant for validation with a picture of your license plate. This was the only sour note of our evening. Otherwise, it was perfect!

Son is the best waiter I have ever had! SUPERB! EXCELLENT! AMAZING!
