re: Birthday Meal in New Orleans

Laid back, loud, not stuffy, not fancy. There's just something about the way they operate. I'd never recommend them for the best steak in the city, as they don't provide that. And as you stated earlier, someone looking at Revolution for a meal isn't cross shopping Charlie's.

But the experience to me and many others I've talked to is NOLA in a nutshell. That's obviously very subjective.
