Let me live - Better late than never lol] And please notice the quotation marks around "New Orleans," because yeah, I was bamboozled. My company really had me thinking I'd be IN THE CITY eating real Cajun food, soaking up that seasoning, that spice, that Louisiana magic -- and then they drove us all the way across the river to ... Covington, Louisiana. Covington. Be serious. Anyway, once we arrived, before I even attempted a nap, my mission was crystal clear: secure Cajun food immediately. I found New Orleans Style Seafood Restaurant & Market on one of the delivery apps and decided to give them a try. Best choice. Pleasant surprise. I started with the Cajun Crawfish Bread -- that creamy crawfish mix toasted with cheese? Delicious. Like comfort food with a little attitude. Then I had the Bayou Redfish -- grilled, sitting on linguine, all covered in this creamy crawfish sauce? Chef's kiss. Everything blended perfectly. Cajun flavors doing exactly what they're supposed to do. And because I cannot see the word "beignet" and leave it alone, I ordered the beignet sticks for dessert. I'll be honest -- they were good when they were piping hot, but once they cooled down I wasn't as crazy about them. For a layover that had me on the wrong side of the river, this food absolutely came through Would definitely order from them again!

We arrived on a Friday night without reservations and waited about 30-40 minutes for a table. First, we got a drink by the bar and stood around. Then when seats opened up at the bar, we sat there and ordered two appetizers. Before ordering, I asked one of the bartenders if something was gluten free and she came back with a sheet of paper labeled GLUTEN listing about 25-30 things that were gluten free such as dressings, jambalaya, and egg rolls (which we found out later they are NOT gluten free). I have a picture but I won't share it so that no one is deceived. A few minutes after ordering, we were buzzed that we had moved up the waiting list and to check in. My husband checked in and came to tell me to go to the hostess stand because they are ready to seat us. He went to let the bartender know to send our two appetizers to our table. When I got to the hostess stand, the hostess said that we already had been seated and to just walk upstairs. Even after I explained we had not gotten seated yet because my husband had just checked in, she instructed my party to simply head upstairs and just turn right. We walked upstairs and found a table we assumed we should sit ate. Then when my husband arrived, he went to look for menus because we didn't have any. Ava came by to greet us as our two appetizers of Sauteed Crab Claws and Boudin Egg Rolls arrived. Ava was really friendly and personable. I was so happy the sheet had indicated they are gluten free. I ate half an egg roll and started to suspect it was not gluten free. I flagged down Ava and asked and she said she was pretty sure they were not gluten free. Ava came back to apologize that the egg rolls had been changed and were no longer gluten free, and then are gave me an updated "2026 Gluten-Free Allergy Menu" with a subheader "All items listed are SAFE for you to eat." The egg rolls were no longer listed. For my entree, I ordered the Charbroiled Catfish served over spinach. It came with a salad and apparently a side. I thought my spinach was the side so I didn't ask about my side options and Ava didn't ask me what I wanted as a side. I had a side mixed green salad with no croutons. Surprisingly, everyone's side mixed green salad looked different when they arrived. Mine had croutons. Another had cheese on their mixed greens while another person was served iceberg lettuce. It was very strange. My catfish arrived with French Fries which are not gluten free. I flagged down another waitress who had checked in on us earlier to explain that I wasn't offered a side and that I couldn't eat the French Fries. I asked for cooked veggies and she brought me cauliflower. I thoroughly enjoyed my catfish and cauliflower. Others are the table had the Seafood Lasagna, Seafood Pasta, Charbroiled Oysters, and Crawfish Etouffee. Everyone liked their dishes. The portions are really big. The meal would've been much better if they were better trained on how to handle food allergies. And what the hostess did was not customer friendly at all. We learned from the second server that Ava was in training. Ava did a good job as she was really friendly, attentive, and seemed to genuinely care. I don't think she understood what a gluten allergy was but she followed up when asked to check on the egg rolls.

The establishment itself is located in a cozy little spot in downtown Covington. Tastefully decorated and full of natural light, The Gloriette is a charming, upscale little spot that boasts "a taste of European tradition, a touch of Louisiana soul." And they're not wrong. Our reservations were for 7pm and we were promptly seated upon arrival. Our drink and appetizer orders were taken by our server shortly after arriving. To start, the four of us decided to share the honey goat cheese spread and confit pork belly (of which, I somehow neglected to take pictures for some reason...). Both were spectacular. My Sazerac was perfectly made, and my wife really enjoyed her watermelon sugar cocktail, which she specifically noted as not being too sweet. I'm not big on presentation because I'm a pretty simple guy. But when our entrees arrived I couldn't wait to dig in. Everything looked absolutely delicious. My wife chose the braised beef short ribs, our friends chose the filet mignon and the blackened gulf fish, and I opted for the grilled red fish. I only had a small bite of my wife's short ribs but it melted in my mouth. And my grilled red fish paired with the basil pesto pearl pasta was phenomenal. The North Shore is loaded with great restaurants and The Gloriette falls right in line with the rest of them. Truly a great experience from beginning to end.

Yaba Kitchen has a somewhat mundane outside appearance on US190 Business loop, in the Rouse's parking lot, but its tasteful, understated interior, welcoming service, and quality cuisine more than make up for it. The menu is Asian fusion focused, with many old favorites, as well as a number of innovative, contemporary offerings. There were an array of seafood combos and ramen dishes that sounded appealing, but today we stuck to the luncheon menu's chicken hibachi, that was served with an excellent complimentary side salad that boasted a really tasty ginger dressing. The chicken hibachi was especially flavorful, with excellent rice, and was generously portioned. Several desserts were featured that sounded great, but we were simply too full to try them. A waffle cone, ice cream Sunday creation sounded particularly amazing. If you're a fan of Asian fusion, you really should try Yaba Kitchen in Covington.
