    Outside

    The Husky was a wonderful surprise! I didn't even know about this restaurant until I discovered it on Yelp when I was looking for a new place to try in the Freret area. The reviews were pretty good and The Husky did not disappoint. Outside is super simple and if you didn't know you could easily walk right by and not realize that it was a restaurant. Once you step in though it's a completely different world with an ambiance and setting of a different era. Everything looked so cool, even the bathroom was worth taking a picture of! I came for happy hour so sat at the bar to get a burger and Old Fashioned special for $20. The happy hour was clearly very popular because the entire bar was filled by the time I left. The burger was good, not my favorite in the city, but satisfying. The fries and aioli were my favorite. And the Old Fashioned was made perfectly for my taste. And the price was pretty good! I did eye a few of the other menu items, like the Beef Wellington, but will have to try that next time I come by. Which I will definitely be coming back for everything. Service: Really good, there were several bartenders who was helping everyone. Drinks: Full bar with lots of options. Happy Hour: Yes, you should try it! Outside Seating: Not that I saw Parking: Street Parking

    You get to choose your steak knife from a varied selection! Very neat concept.

    The Husky is housed in a gorgeous space. I was taken aback by the floor to ceiling bar wall, the rich wood that envelopes the interior and the dark, sultry lighting. The dining pluses: My burger was delicious. The burrata appetizer is a must do. Our server was attentive and friendly. The minuses: My daughter's steak was very salty. Our Mac and cheese came out after we had finished eating so we requested that it be boxed up to go. The lady who delivered it to our table seemed moderately upset that we needed it boxed up. I didn't know if she expected us to sit there after we had finished our meal and just eat this Mac and cheese, or what. All in all, I really enjoyed my visit to The Husky and I'm sure I'll be back.

    Amazing food!!! Everything was prepared with such detail and each dish was tastier than the previous. The art deco ambience is to die for. I especially love the mirrors in the bathroom. Our waitress was so knowledgeable and helpful in choosing what to order. Top tier service. I really appreciated how hands-on the manager was as well. He didn't just stand around, he helped his staff and was always scanning the room to see how he could assist. This place is not only beautiful, but the food is delicious and the production is flawless.

    Fried oysters! 10/10

    I absolutely love the Husky! Probably my most favorite for a special night. I thought I had previously reviewed them and added a ton of photos which I have now deleted but we recently went back so I'll add the new ones I have. I do recommend a reservation because they get busy. My preference is to go during Happy Hour when you can get their well Martini for $9. You can also get a burger, fries and Old Fashioned for $20, but this time I went with the small steak called the wennie and some of the most delicious Mac and cheese I've ever eaten, so creamy and cheesy with a little crunch of top. I have not see a dress code but I consider the place to be on the business casual side. Last time I did wear jeans but with a dressy top. Service is spot on too!

    We had heard great things about The Husky and decided to experience it for ourselves--and it did not disappoint. We visited on a Saturday evening and found the atmosphere lively and inviting. The service throughout the night was exceptional. We began with two specialty cocktails: one featuring fig and the other lime. The bar staff even stopped by our table to ensure we were enjoying our selections, which was a nice touch. For appetizers, we chose the lamb chops, oysters and shrimp--all were outstanding. For our main courses, I ordered the Beef Wellington while my husband opted for the ribeye. Each dish was prepared perfectly and full of flavor. To finish, we shared the key lime dessert and the Old Fashion cake. Both were sweet without being overly rich, which we prefer. Overall, The Husky delivered an excellent dining experience. We will absolutely return, and I highly recommend you give it a try--you won't be disappointed. Oh yes, and don't miss the bathroom bourbon. You will understand when you visit them.

    Passed by this place many times and always wanted to try. Made a reservation for my husband's birthday. When you walk in you are greeted by the hostess. They give a complimentary champagne for birthdays. Everything on the menu looked great. We ordered the Burrata appetizer, French onion soup, beef wellington and lamb lollipops. Everything was delicious. Wellington was cooked perfectly. The lamb was excellent, seasoned nicely and cooked mid rare. My husband liked the French onion soup. The only thing I didn't care for was the Negroni I ordered. It was a bit more sweet and floral than I'm used to. The ambiance is like a speakeasy, dimly lit, vibey and cool. Head to the restrooms and you'll notice bourbon stations for complimentary tasting. Very classy. A great evening.

    The Husky is giving Gatsby/20's vibe - great spot for date night or a few drinks. The staff here are friendly and the food is delicious! Favorites were crispy oyster mushrooms, French onion soup, and bison short rib. The crispy oyster mushrooms are lightly battered maitake or oyster mushrooms, drizzled with a rosemary garlic aioli. French onion soup was one of the best I've had and the bison short rib was tender and delicious with the sweet potato risotto. Would love to come back and check out more of the menu items like beef Wellington! PS - don't forget to take a bathroom break ;) most beautiful restroom I've seen!

    What I love about The Husky is the consistency. They were really sweet to accommodate two more guests for a birthday dinner. Not going to lie, I was feeling it after receiving our drinks haha. My visits have yet to disappoint. The drinks are always amazing and the speakeasy vibe is my favorite part of this restaurant/bar. Rigatoni a la pasta was my favorite dish of the night and my favorite appetizer was the oyster mushrooms! I have tried the bone marrow before and I will say it is delicious but can be very rich for some people. Foods is consistent with each visit, full of richness and flavor that will leave you satisfied, if not full. I never get sick with the food here. The portions are great for individuals and sharing in general. This is a great place to bring a group of people to share different plates. I had a great night and will come again!

    Went to check out the Husky for date night! I actually had a hard time grabbing a reservation because it was so busy which made me that much more excited when i finally grabbed the 8:00 res. The walk up it very cute yet old timey. Definitely a great gatsby feel. Interior is intimate with low lighting but somehow still very lively. Service was friendly with great recommendations as we were between a few things in the menu. For drinks we had a passion fruit lemon drop (delicious) and a glass of Pinot. Appetizers came next with our choice of the crispy oysters which were amazing my only wish is that it should have had a touch of spice. For entrees we settled on a ribeye and baked potato and the fish of the day. Both meals were delicious. Overall i really enjoyed my experience!

    Nice and elegant upon walking in. Service was great which our waiter was on top of everything. Food came out in a timely manner which everything was either warm to hot. All the dishes were different and unique, but were very good. Definitely a great place to try if you're looking for a new place to eat. Calling for reservations is a plus!

When you arrive, you place your starting drink and food orders. We arrived early enough to choose any seating. Tables are well distanced apart. Masks are required to enter.

This is the only place I have been to so far that offers Voodoo beer by Tin Roof so I was in love already. They have a refreshing menu..not all typical bar food.

A small bar, and a back performance room with a space for the performer. The back room fits perhaps 12-15 people. I've used the descriptors of little, small, cozy, and let's throw in the word intimate. The bartender is also the emcee, and made introductions and gave some info. Mia Borders was super. Her songs are powerful, and great life stories. There is just enough amplification to highlight vocals, and seems perfect for the room. Not a great selection of liquors, but it's "enough". They also have specialty drinks, although they were out of a couple of items when I was there. I REALLY enjoyed Mia's show, and this little "Sidebar" is pretty cool.

The ambiance of this place was the best part of the experience - the Vessel is located in an old church building. I loved the vibes and it felt both classy and casual at the same time. We didn't have reservations on a Saturday night, but we were able to be seated as soon as we came in! We started with the hand cut fries and I found them to be delicious and fresh. Afterwards, I had the seafood pasta and it was great - appropriate balance of the pasta and seafood. We ended with the creme brule and it was perfect - it had the right amount of crunchiness at the top and was soft as soon as you broke into it. Overall, I had a great experience here and hope to try this place out for brunch in the future!
