    The ambiance and vibe of Irene's is always the wonderful foundation for the dining experience here. You have to just walk in and feel the coolness of the place. Sean was our server and provided interactive fun banter and well measured service. We enjoyed the ravioli, softshell crab meuniete and crabmeat gratin apps. Then it was on to the amazing sweet potato and andouille soup special, Italian wedding soup and Caesar salad for our second course...all delicious! The Duck st. Philip is not to be missed and we also enjoyed the Shrimp and Crawfish Fettuccine and Chicken Rosemarino...thank you for a lovely evening Irene's...will see you again real soon!
