Galatoire's 33 Bar & Steak
Two years ago, if you said that in a few months Galatoire's would have opened a second restaurant next door to its original, you would been thought of as being at the very least mistaken. But there it is, a steakhouse bearing the famous name, with a little bit of Galatoire's in its cooking. It's a great idea, but not one that has come to full flower yet, particularly in the service department. It's different from the original Galatoire's in many ways. It main attraction is that the food is in the same league as the mother ship, and it's easy to get a table for it.

All the Reveillon menus can be perused here. We'll feature one every day throughout the Reveillon season, which runs in most of the Reveillon restaurants until December 31.The snowflake ratings are for the Reveillon menu, not the restaurant in general.
