Description

Housed inside a handsome 19th-century warehouse in the Warehouse District, Restaurant August has been a fixture of New Orleans dining for more than two decades. Beneath glittering chandeliers and soaring ceilings, diners settle into one of the city’s grandest dining rooms, where exposed brick, dark wood and white tablecloths create a sense of occasion without feeling stuffy. Executive Chef Corey Thomas continues the restaurant’s long-standing mission of pairing French technique with Louisiana ingredients, drawing on local seafood, regional produce and Creole influences throughout the menu.
