Two Louisiana Restaurants Make Nation’s Top 100 Restaurant List

We all know Louisiana is known for its unique style of food and is viewed as some of the best in the entire world. The Open Table has released its Top 100 Restaurants in the US for 2023, and two Louisiana restaurants made the list.

The Restaurant List is an annual collection of The Open Table's favorite restaurants in America. Each entry on the list of restaurants they “love most in 2023,” breaks down why the location stands out. Major dining destinations earned multiple entries on the list, including Chicago, New York, and Los Angeles.

The two Louisiana restaurants making the list are GW Fins in New Orleans and The Saint Restaurant & Bar inside of the St. Francisville Inn & Restaurant.

GW FINS

Executive Chef Mike Nelson "ensures the highest quality seafood by flying in products from around the globe & featuring only the best from local waters - both at their seasonal peak. This commitment to freshness & quality is one of the many reasons GW Fins prints its menu daily. GW Fins have received numerous glowing reviews in The Times-Picayune, Food & Wine, Southern Living, & Esquire magazines."

ST. FRANCISVILLE INN & RESTAURANT

The Saint Restaurant & Bar within The St. Francisville Inn "prides itself on its culinary offerings. They hand-cut steaks in-house and serve the best crab cakes this side of the Mason-Dixon Line."

The Open Table's Top 100 Restaurants in the Nation in 2023 list features a mix of brand-new locations and places that have been around for decades. You can see the full list of restaurants here.
