Our Favorite Places to Take Dad for Steak This Father’s Day
You’ll find some great steakhouses in New Orleans, but we’re also home to some fine restaurants that just happen serve a great steak. Here are our favorites, just in time for Father’s Day.
ANNUNCIATION Restaurant
This Warehouse District favorite offers a Filet Special that changes weekly, typically featuring seasonal vegetables, fresh Louisiana seafood, and house-made sauces. Read our review. You really can’t go wrong here.
Commander’s Palace
Dad will love Commander’s Palace, named the “South’s Best Restaurant” by Southern Living. Steak-wise, Chef Meg is offering Tournedos of Black Angus Beef, a chargrilled beef tenderloin over garlic & herb roasted mushrooms, whiskey smoked onions, Creole smashed new potatoes, and Marchand de vin.
Yum! Reserve now.
Oceana Grill
If you can stop yourself from ordering any of the fabulous seafood dishes on the Oceana Grill menu, you’ll discover that the Blackened Ribeye Steak is 10 ounces of wonderful. Make reservations.
Pelican Club
This lovely restaurant on Exchange Alley offers a Center Cut, Eight-Ounce Filet Mignon with mushroom demi-glace, blue cheese, broccolini, sour cream and green onion smashed potatoes. OMG! Reserve your table in your favorite dining room now.
Rizzuto’s Ristorante & Chop House
Gentlemen, choose your weapons! Rizzuto’s serves only USDA Certified Prime Black Angus Beef. There are five steak options on their dinner menu. We recommend the 10-ounce Spinalis Ribeye, the smallest, most flavorful, most marbled, and tenderest part of the ribeye. Make sure Dad saves room for dessert. The gelato is amazing there. Reserve a table.
Tujague’s
Why has Tujague’s been around for 160 years? Here’s why. Tujague’s Filet Mignon is a 6-ounce filet of beef, served with fried fingerling potatoes, vegetable of the day, Worcestershire & roasted garlic butter sauce. It’s a rare treat, no matter how you order it cooked. Click here for reservations.
Hard Rock Cafe
Father’s Day is a great excuse to take Dad to the French Quarter for some fun at Hard Rock Cafe. Immerse him in the music he grew with, delicious yet unpretentious food like their Legendary® Steak Burgers, and great libations. Your Dad will receive rock star treatment at Hard Rock Cafe. Reserve a table.
The Carriage House Restaurant at Houmas House
Head to Great River Road this year for a meal at The Carriage House Restaurant at Houmas House, an elegant eatery fit for a sugar baron or the king of your house. On the menu there you’ll find Steak Carriage House, an A9 Wagyu Filet Mignon served with roasted fingerling potatoes, blistered tomatoes and broccolini. Dad will be so happy, he’ll want to come back next year. For reservations, call 225-473-9380.
Acme Oyster House
While there is no steak per se on the Acme Menu, their 10-Napkin Roast Beef Po-Boy will satisfy Dad’s primal cravings. It’s so good, Dad won’t know whether to wipe his chin or do a second line. No reservations required.
