Mandina's Restaurant Review: Long established in a modest area of New Orleans, Mandina's has been part of the neighborhood since the 1930s. As it has always been, the building is bright pink, and neon still trims the awning. But the food standards seem to have risen in the last few years, although tomato sauce and frying oil remain the staples, along with enough seasonings to put a blush on your cheek. The turtle soup au sherry is definitive, and the bread pudding is sweet enough to make your teeth hurt. Broiled trout is a top seller, and especially winning is trout amandine meunière. Spaghetti with meatballs and Italian-sausage po' boy sandwiches point to the Mandina family's Italian roots. And remember these two words once they clear your entrées: Milky Way pie. The short (about 20 labels) wine list focuses on California options, with a few Italian selections, and all are offered by the glass. Ports are available for after dinner. |
