Where the Locals Eat Rating
Top 100 Restaurant, New Orleans
"Seventy-two years ago John Vojkovich opened Crescent City Steak House with one thought in mind: ‘provide the best steak in town.' By keeping the menu simple and using only US Prime aged corn-fed beef (the best you can buy), he accomplished that task. . . . none can compare to the steaks that Crescent City provides its loyal patrons to this day."
–Crescent City Steak House website
"Crescent City is as much a potato house as a steak one, with five of the six available spud preparations suggesting that God created the potato to satisfy our dual predilections for saltiness and crunchiness."
–Brett Anderson, The Times-Picayune
"The place still exudes the uncluttered grace of its day and the menu has hardly changed over the decades. The enormous porterhouse for two is best enjoyed in the privacy of one of the dining room's discreet, curtained booths."
–Gambit Weekly
"If you're looking for a meaty indulgence far from the tourist-beaten track, you've found your place."
