Crescent City Steak House Restaurant Review

: Crescent City Steak House devotées support the restaurant’s bragging rights as the birthplace in the mid-1930s of the New Orleans-style steak, featuring charbroiled Prime beef served in sizzling, seasoned butter. The utterly basic menu presents rib-eye, New York strip or porterhouse steaks as the kitchen's specialty. Skip the soggy, flavorless shrimp cocktail, but jump on the hand-cut fries. The main dining room breathes a nostalgic ambience, and the curtained “cheaters” booths remain the best seats in the house for those on a discreet rendezvous. The restaurant begins serving steaks by 4 p.m. on Saturdays and 1 p.m. on Sundays for early dinners. Crescent City Steak House is not terribly convenient to the French Quarter or downtown, but it is worth the drive. Bread pudding and Creole cream cheesecake are the obvious dessert choices. The mostly American and New World wine list offers a plethora of reds for the steaks, as well as a few sparklings and dessert choices.
