Vacca in NOLA ?

I went a few weeks ago for the first time. The NY strip medium rare was outstanding. One of the better steaks I've had recently.

It’s in Metry I thought

It is. Also I'll add they advertise Pittsburgh style but I was always under the impression that meant "black & blue" - charred exterior and rare interior. But theirs is really a charred pepper crust, cooked to your liking.

We also had the mozzarella sticks and thick cut bacon for apps which were pretty good. I had the French Onion soup, which I could've done without. Wife had the crab cakes which were a decent size and plenty of lump crab.

In short I'd recommend. Prices are a little steep but that's the norm these days. They have different specials during the week that make it more cost effective.

Food was solid, service was mediocre

The prices are laughably outrageous for Metairie

It's owned, I believe, by the guy that use to own Brisbi's out on the lake

Yes, he and a few others. He and a few others own Hog Alley and maybe Evangeline, too.

Prob the best steakhouse in old Metairie. But pricey for sure

You a crazy Johnnie guy, bunchie ?

There ain’t no cake in those crab cakes!

I may have done that a time or two

Minus the "all" night I was always back at 2-3 at most

That was the late night debris fries place, right?
