The service was great, and the food is top quality! I had to get mine to go bc I couldn't stay, but I'm sure I will be a regular at this place, ESPECIALLY since it's only 5 min away from me!! I had the wagu burger with fries, a lemon Dutch baby, and a cocktail called the French kiss. The wagu burger was juicy and flavorful. I'm a fry snob, and theirs was perfection! The French kiss is their version of a French 75, and it's DANGEROUSLY good!! There is also the food lovers market to shop for oils, vinegars, and unique items that make great presents!!!

The bartender, Benny, was so enthusiastic, and when asked, advised she had a seasonal fun drink, "Eggnog Espresso Tini", that convinced us to come in and see what this new establishment is all about. It is fun! Benny is a hoot! She loves her job and the owners and everyone who works there. Her personality is infectious. The eggnog drink was super good. We split a cheeseburger that was delicious; perfectly seasoned and cooked the way we love; medium rare. We just ate sushi 30 minutes prior but still wanted to try the cheeseburger. The burger came with French fries that were equally tasty as well. Near the bar, and inside, they have a cute and eclectic store! Olive oils, balsamic vinegars and other cool gifting items are readily available. They are eager to offer tastings of the oils and vinegars. Perfect gifts for host and hostesses who have everything, or who love to cook.

It's evident that the space wasn't intentionally set to be a restaurant, making it very small. Despite the aesthetic decor, we found some pieces to be in poor shape and the restaurant rather dirty. On the day we dined, it wasn't busy, so service was normal. We had the truffle fries which were excellent, but many of the menu items seemed a little too complex. My burger was nothing to rave about, but the prices were rather high for what it was worth. Not sure I'd return unless it was for a special occasion for another.

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.

My gyro plate was cold and my fiancé's shrimp Alfredo had four (4) shrimp total and not much pasta. She only brought out two (2) pieces of pita bread, which we finished quickly. She never checked on us after bringing the food out, and we sat there for about 10-15 minutes wanting more pita bread. By the time she came back, we asked for a box and the check. We really wanted to try a dessert but figured it wasn't worth the trouble at that point. I ended up bringing the check to the register myself because she had sat at a table on the other side of the restaurant, talking to two people. She didn't say anything as we paid and left.

We stopped in for Sunday brunch on my daughters birthday and had another fantastic meal…read more I ordered the Louisiana Crabmeat Sardou, and it was outstanding. Think eggs Benedict with a Louisiana crabmeat twist. It starts with a buttery homemade biscuit topped with a whole artichoke heart, creamed spinach, a perfectly poached egg, hollandaise, and caviar. It's served with a generous portion of lump crabmeat and a side of potatoes. With so many rich components, I expected it to be heavy, but everything was surprisingly balanced. Every bite worked together, and it was an incredibly delicious dish. My wife ordered the French Dip, which was the brunch special, and she absolutely raved about it. The shaved ribeye was incredibly tender, the Gruyère added just the right richness, and the au jus was packed with flavor. My daughter, who considers herself a burger connoisseur, insists their Brunch Burger is the best burger she's ever had. She ordered it again today, and it only reinforced that opinion. I also tried the Golden Hour cocktail, and it may have become my new favorite. I highly recommend giving it a try. From the food to the service, everything was exceptional. Tchefuncte's continues to deliver one of our favorite brunch experiences, and we can't wait to stop in again the next time we're in the area.

Overall, this was an okay coffee shop in a convenient downtown location. The space is quite large,…read morewith plenty of seating inside, including an additional seating area toward the back. There were several people working on their computers, so it seems like a good place to get some work done or enjoy a coffee. I ordered a cappuccino, which I believe was around $6. Personally, I thought that was a little pricey, especially considering there are other coffee shops nearby that offer cappuccinos for a bit less. I've also visited other coffee shops in the area where I preferred the overall atmosphere. The staff experience was a little mixed. Not everyone was unfriendly, but some of the interactions didn't feel particularly warm or welcoming. It wasn't a major issue, just something I noticed during my visit. The coffee shop also appeared to serve food, although I wasn't offered a food menu and didn't happen to see one displayed, so I decided to just order coffee. I chose to sit outside on the patio, which was nice and quiet. It was a pleasant spot to sit and enjoy my drink. The restroom was also clean and well-maintained. However, there is only one single-person restroom, which seemed a little limited considering how large the coffee shop is. Overall, it was a decent experience. I appreciated the spacious seating, quiet patio, and central downtown location. While I personally preferred the atmosphere and pricing at some of the other nearby coffee shops, this one still has its positives. It wasn't my favorite stop, but I wouldn't mind visiting again.

Located in a beautifully repurposed home in downtown Covington, this charming spot exceeded our expectations from the moment we arrived. We were greeted by a friendly hostess and promptly shown to our table in one of the restaurant's small but thoughtfully decorated dining rooms. We started with the house-made whipped ricotta at our server's suggestion. Lightly topped with rosemary honey and served with grilled ciabatta, it was absolutely delicious. For our entrées, my wife ordered the Chicken Molli while I chose the Pork Cheek Marsala. Both dishes were phenomenal. Unfortunately, we didn't save room for dessert, so I guess we'll just have to return, which I'm sure won't disappoint my wife in the slightest. When we received the bill we were both surprised because we had expected it to be significantly higher than it was based on the service and quality of the food. The attentive staff, inviting atmosphere, and excellent food all help make this place stand out. We're already looking forward to our next visit.
