New Orleans, LA
Best Steakhouse in New Orleans.
Harry's top 10 steakhouse spots in New Orleans score 71–85 on the Harry Score. Prices run $$ to $$$$.
New Orleans invented its own steakhouse style before borrowing anyone else's: a ribeye sizzling in butter, no herb crust, no reduction, cooked off Broad Street near the Fair Grounds rather than the French Quarter, where the tourist money sits. Ruth's Chris started blocks from there and now exists in forty states as a diluted version of itself. Harry cares less about the butter theatrics than what's underneath — whether the crust formed, whether medium-rare means medium-rare. Sizzle earns no credit if the meat isn't doing the work.
