Editorial Review for GW Fins – by Citysearch Editors

In Short
Steps from Bourbon Street, GW Fins is a world away from the outside hustle. The dining room is large and open, with vaulted ceilings, exposed beams and a wall of windows. Aquatic-themed artwork adorns the walls. Fresh fish imported from around the globe is always the catch of the day. The rotating daily menu features favorites like salmon and sea bass, but lesser-seen entries like escolar, triple tail, drum and striped bass are also available.

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

We love this place and visit every year! It is on our rotation - GW Fins and Muriel's every visit. The biscuits are amazing and they were even willing to give me the recipe! Every appetizer, salad and entree we had tried has been amazing! The service is always personable and comfortable. In a city with amazing food, this is one of the best!

Pros: BISCUITS, entrees, service

Cons: i guess it can be a little loud at times

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

This place was definitely one of our favorites in New Orleans. It has a great ambiance and wonderful staff. The menu is different every day and there is a nice variety of choices. My husband and I ordered different seafood entrees and were very pleased with the freshness of the fish and scallops. The meal was pricey but definitely worth it! We would definitely go back there again on our way through the city!

Pros: great food

Cons: expensive
