re: Jazz Fest - Brigtsen’s, Clancy’s, or Gautreau's?

I’m a Brigsten’s guy too, but to me that’s a date place or somewhere to show out of town guests authentic cuisine

I’ve never really enjoyed Clancy’s, I feel like you have to be in the Clancy’s club to understand the appeal, with the way people talk about it. Their menu is so boring to me, too.

For a dude dinner uptown, I’m going to one of these spots:

Costera (or sister restaurant Osteria Lupo)
Mr John’s Steakhouse (or Charlie’s )
Coquette
