A Wonderful Steakhouse 🥩✨

I decided to spend my last evening in New Orleans at Estrella's. The restaurant has that classic, long and narrow layout with dark wood paneling, giving it a warm, old-world vibe. It was a quiet Monday night, with soft jazz playing in the background — the perfect cozy atmosphere 🎷🕯️. I grabbed a seat at the bar, which offered a lovely view of the street. For dinner, I ordered an 8 oz filet mignon and a 4 oz lobster tail, served with a side of sautéed mushrooms. The meal was absolutely delightful! 🍽️ The lobster tail was flavorful, though a bit tricky to get off the shell — still, the seasoning was on point. While not as sweet as Nova Scotia lobster, it was delicious in its own way. Now, I don’t usually go for filet mignon, but this one was the most tender and juicy I’ve ever had — perfectly seasoned and cooked exactly as ordered (medium-rare) 🔥❤️. The bartender, Eric, shared that the beef is sourced from within 100 miles of New Orleans and is grass-fed — and you could truly taste the quality. The mushrooms were tasty, though a little less butter might have made them even better 😉. A nice bonus: four perfectly fried shrimp with a tangy seafood sauce that complemented everything beautifully 🍤🌟. Eric was the quintessential New Orleans bartender — friendly, welcoming, and happy to chat when things were slow. He truly made my last night in the city extra special. If you're looking for a steakhouse with charm, character, and seriously good food in NOLA, Estrella's is a must-visit! #EstrellasNOLA #SteakLovers #LastNightInNOLA #GrassFedBeef #CozyVibes #BartenderLove #NewOrleansDining #FoodieMemories 🥂🎉
