A worthy steak night ritual starts with a good playlist on the ride to the restaurant and ends with an ice cold martini in hand and a crème brûlée and espresso on the way.

If you’re still feeling rowdy, stop at your favorite local dive on the way home for a night cap. Repeat ritual as needed.

Miso butter, gruyère, and garlic over a salty bite straight from the sea and roasted on an open flame until hot and melty and finished with chives. Kick it off right with a round of roasty toasty oysters for the table.

From L’Acadien Tavern to Antlers to today, our people have been gathering under this roof in search of a cold beer, hot food, and community.

You can sometimes feel it - the quiet echo of generations of good times. Over a century of service and hospitality, a living, breathing memory, persistent and unchanged by the times or the name out front.

Come sit at the bar and tell us about your day over a cold one. It’s tradition, after all.

We recently added more mohair banquette seating and a glass partition by the bar, for your increased comfort and for those sweet and low conversations over dinner and drinks.

We’re always thinking of you. Come and see us.

Sportsman’s paradise and a gourmand’s dream, our Louisiana waters always provide.

The Choupique (“shoe pick), also known as Bowfin, is an old-world freshwater fish that favors our local swamps and bayous and produces a subtly briny, earthy, and tangy caviar, with a gorgeous firm dark green pearl and delicate flavor.
