    Brennan is simply the best restaurant in New Orleans. Every part our dining experience was perfect from being greeted at reception to having our server help my husband on with his coat. The menu choices are amazing. My husband is still talking about his redfish choice. I chose duck. It’s the best I have ever tasted. Our waiter was so friendly. We had so many different servers attending to every need imaginable. What a delightful special place to have experienced. I can’t wait to go back.
