French Quarter·$$$$

$40.00

Fried trout topped with brown butter and toasted almond slices.

Tip: This is an excellent lunch choice — lighter than dinner portions, same quality. The trout is fresh and the almonds give it substance.

Warehouse District·$$$$

$295.00

Pan-fried trout with a crust of sliced almonds and a light butter sauce.

Tip: This is one of the lighter courses, so pace yourself. The kitchen is moving you through flavors progressively.

French Quarter·$$$$

$42.00

Whole fresh trout finished in a brown butter sauce with lemon and parsley.

Tip: The tableside filleting is part of the experience. Watch the waiter work — it's a skill most restaurants no longer do.
