    We moved to New Orleans over 6 years ago, one of the draws was the vast possibilities for dining out. Although we will probably never exhaust our list of places to try we return again and again to GW Fins. It’s been #1 on our list for years now because they consistently deliver the best dining experience on every level, first and foremost the quality of the food and service. Last night was another perfect meal from appetizer to dessert, and Marlon was delightful. Much praise and many thanks go to Gary Wollerman and Chef Michael Nelson.

    AMAZING experience! When we arrived our table wasn’t ready yet and the host gave us a mini private tour of the seance room and balcony. We got to see the ghost table (ask if someone alive is eating there tonight before you go take photos). When we were seated we had outstanding service and delicious food. The filet mignon and salmon were both perfectly cooked. I enjoyed the “honey child” cocktail which was the perfect level of sweet. We went for our anniversary and revived a complimentary crème brûlée topped with candles. I highly recommend the pumpkin crème brûlée if they still have it when you go!
