New American Restaurants near Kenner, LA

“The food and service was great. I enjoyed my birthday lunch!!“

“Bf has been raving about this place for years about the Shrimp Ducky. My First time and Came alway from Texas. The food was amazing. I am disappointed in the person at the hostess stand. She was a little rude and not hospitable. We had a togo order due to our dog in the car. We don’t know where to go to pick up the order and it left us wandering the restaurant.“

“So amazing!! Elevated twists on the dishes!! Great atmosphere, and an incredible experience!! Never disappoints!!“

“Delicious and charming! Go!!“

“I visited the location on Ponchatrain in Nola last night _ I will NEVER dine in late at night - The host was outside playing with the managers dog in the parking lot - She walked in the side door and greeted me picked up the menu and NEVER sanitized or washed her hands. The server complained about it being slow- My food came out cold- The manager on duty last didn't care- They put my side dishes in the microwave They served me the same cold chicken I sent back and just put it on the grill for a few minutes. Horrible customer service experience and the quality of the food was worse.“

“Wonderful food in a beautiful setting with great service!“

“Very nice and cozy bar😉 we loved it!“

“I was looking for a lowkey place for dinner after working all day and this was the perfect choice! The ambiance was great, food was top tier and the service was exceptional. Mason was my server and he made amazing recommendations. I had the gumbo, brisket, and a desert to go. All were amazing! Even other servers were kind and welcoming (hi Jimmy!). I can’t recommend this place more, and I will definitely be back!“

“Absolutely delicious dinner, dessert, and a lovely conversation with Kelly Bopp, Granne Guice, and WJK4 at the newly reopened Gautreau’s Restaurant. Make your reservations early! 🦃 🧡🎁❤️🎄💚“

“Delicious dog! 🤤 And the chicken tenders for my daughter were fresh.“

“OMG they make the best kale! (and I don't generally like kale because most places aren't able to wilt it properly) everything they served was done to perfection. These two chronic complainers had literally nothing to complain about! we will be back!!“

“When we want a good burger, we go to Oscars! Great burgers and baked potato or sweet potato and a cold beer for a great dinner! Service Is great the ladies that work there are very friendly and the atmosphere is interesting, especially if you like Marilyn Monroe! Kind of a neighborhood bar so don’t expect the greatest atmosphere but it’s a fun place to have a burger.“

“Had a stellar evening here after coming based on recommendations.

We arrived at happy hour time and chose to sit at the bar despite open tables (a great choice!). We were lucky enough to be sitting across from bartender Liz K, who was world-class.

She was able to make detailed, tailored recommendations based on our cocktail preferences and we were delighted by our drinks (we shared a total of 5). Standouts included the Fun Fact and the Mississippi Cup. She also helped us select some delicious bar bites, including the Chicken Liver Pate which was unbelievably delectable.

If you are a cocktail enthusiast looking for a large, exceptional menu, fresh ingredients, experienced and friendly bar staff, and delicious food in an upscale, intimate atmosphere - this is the spot for you!“

“Really nice clean atmosphere Lots of pool tables delicious bar foods and they sell lived and boiled crawfish 😋“

“Always love it,great food and awesome service!......“

“Always delicious. Love their wraps and ranch dip.“

“The best on the water an great dining“

“Great gaming store, lot of miniatures games, card games and board games here.

The employees are always willing to show you how to play a game or talk shop about the paints etc. Brian in particular is a great resource. I come here for the paint selection because they have a full suite of Vallejo paints (model, game, diorama and xpress colors), and because they have the best in stock selection of warhammer 40k and age of sigmar among local stores.

The place also has army painter, citadel and a good selection of basing supplies.

I play games closer to home so I havent participated in the store's gaming community, but it seems healthy and welcoming from what I have observed.“

“Great atmosphere along with great great service. The food is delicious and the drinks are tasty.“

“I have been coming here for 20 years or close to it. I love the hamburgers, garbage can nachos, spaghetti and meatballs, lasagna, spinach and shrimp quesadillas, ribs, and recently discovered the Baja taco with salmon this summer. That’s my favorite go to meal now!!! I usually got a margarita on the rocks with dinner. But changed it up with a watermelon daiquiri with tajin on the rim. Delicious! This was one of my mom’s favorite places too. I sure miss going there with her sharing a hamburger together and having margaritas. Great neighborhood restaurant.“

“Best place in the world. I love this place. Inside info… (if you want to be an instant insider, play Prince on the juke. Then go smoke on the back porch. Share your smoke if anyone is around to share with. Good things will happen.). Funnest all nighter in the world.“

“Great crawfish on Friday nights.“

“Many a time I have wandered into the Lavin-Bernick Center in search of a tasty treat that will satisfy my craving for excellence, but only today did I find what I have yearned so eagerly for. When a mysterious man in a trench coat whispered to me the secrets of the hidden menu, I rushed to Wow and asked for one simple item: the Jackson Cushing special. Although the workers were resistant to serve me, they finally caved when I leapt over the counter and begged on my knees. As soon as I was done with this meticulously and gracefully cooked fish dish, I wept, for I know that nothing in life will ever come close to the absolute pleasure this cuisine brought me. I strongly recommend every reader to pursue this euphoria that has changed me forever.“

“Best Burger in Metairie ....bunch of TVs to watch all the sports you could want“

“Village Inn of today (November, 2025) ain't what it used to be. FAR BETTER! Good facilities, great waitresses and serving the food to which we've all become accustomed. Going for the Friday catfish bar today, can't wait--3rd visit since they re-opened a couple of months ago.“

“Small, quaint restaurant. We were warmly welcomed. The food was good and the service was pleasant. I do the believe the menu is different at this location compared to others. It seemed there was a lot less selection to choose from here. We would return.“

“So I found this restaurant on tik-tok and was not disappointed me and my family of 6 ate great we a re from Maryland and love southern cooking. Our waitress Tae was nothing but amazing, she explained everything and was very patient with us which made the experience more better. I would definitely revisit stop in and check them out.“

“The food here continues to blow you away. The puppy drum was absolutely stellar, crispy around the edges and mounted on lovely buttery pureed sweet potatoes. The gnocchetti sardi with bolognese ragu and ricotta was SO impressively PERFECT. Wow! Weren't expecting such an incredible experience as this! Please don't stop what you're doing here! The kitchen is amazing. We in Lakeview are so proud to have a world class place such as this. Bravo!!! We care and appreciate you and thank you!! Only if the bar were speedier with getting out their items would the overall experience be better.“

“The shrimp and grits were delicious.“
