Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in Lower Garden District

From the moment we walked in, we knew we were in for an elevated experience. And Morrow Steak did not disappoint. The decor! The atmosphere! THE FOOD! It was, honestly, one of the best dining experiences we’ve EVER had. There’s absolutely no way that we won’t be back. Our server, Glyniss, was so friendly and knowledgeable and made great suggestions! We loved her. One visit has made Morrow Steak our favorite restaurant and we’ve been to hundreds of restaurants in New Orleans alone. We’re telling everyone! Thank you so much! PS: Make sure to save room for the Ube Cheesecake! Thank me later!

Great food! Wonderful service. A perfect spot to bring your kiddos along. Very family friendly. It was very loud in there though.

Great service today on Christmas day! So busy but servers were awesome. I messed up on timing of my reservation but they worked hard to accommodate my mistake. Food was great and good quantity.

This was my first experience enjoying dinner at a restaurant on Christmas Eve and the service was great! Brock was our server for a table of 6, none of us had ever been here before and he was great with suggestions! Will definitely be back!

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!
