Cheese cake was delishus

08/13/2007 Posted by the_phararoh

If you dine at Wendy's when you are in New Orleans, please skip Irene's cuisine at the corner of St. Phillip and Chartres. But, if you are staying at Le Provincial, you cannot skip it. The aroma of garlic will draw you in. My date and I enjoyed a great meal at Irene's last Saturday night, August 11th. The buffalo mozzarella and tomatoes started it off. The shrimp corn bisque followed nicely. The Black Angus filet was perfectly grilled to medium rare. The highlight was the fresh strawberry cheese cake. Our server, Seth, knew everything about Irene's and her menu. [We were not curious about her personal life.] We recommend Irene's with four stars. It has carved out a place as one of New Orleans great restaurants. The Phararoh Man

Pros: Knowledgeable wait staff/great food

Cons: Long wait/a little crowded

Editor's Review

Cozy, romantic Quarter spot packs in adoring locals with a menu of Italian influences paired with hints of southern France. See the full editorial review.

Insider Tips

Know Before You Go

To say that the lighting at Irene's is muted would be a near-laughable understatement. If you can't read the menu, don't despair--all waiters carry pocket flashlights.
