"After the visit, this was invited for a business lunch. It seems that this is an institution in New Orleans Food-lore.... to add to the literally hundreds of other food institutions in New Orleans. Nice bar while you walk on the way, but that was a work lunch. A few in my party of four were here before and before we even got into the menu, said that one of their signature dishes and must have been the Hamburg steak. As a big fan of everything that was remotely related I was in and only doubtful my pages of salad and pommes. Now the other menu items I saw coming also looked quite delicious and I will plan another stop at some point, although the West Bank location is not quite comfortable. (All four of us had Hamburger Steak) Steak was smeared in mushrooms and onions in engraving, fries were crispy and hot for engraving excavators and the salad was serviceable. Everything with iced tea for a big meal to seal a deal. Service was friendly and contemporary. I have to try to increase more than once, but I'm pretty sure it would go higher if and when I do."
