Doris Metropolitan is a chic haven in the French Quarter, serving up unforgettable dry-aged steaks alongside Mediterranean-inspired delights in a stylish, lively setting.
"Doris Metropolitan is known for its glass case of dry-aged meat and Israeli influence, which chef Sash Kurgan’s perfects from his state-of-the-art kitchen visible from the horseshoe-shaped bar. Expect excellent, mouth-watering meat; the butcher’s cut in particular, and carpaccio, fresh vegetable sides and starters done to perfection, and a martini list to indulge in." - Eater Staff, Clair Lorell
"You might think a steakhouse just off one of the city’s most tourist-heavy areas would be a predictable affair, but Doris Metropolitan is not. The menu confidently reflects the global outlook of the owners, and they put their beef front and center in a series of glass dry-aging cabinets. There are nine variations of steak, and they are arguably the best in the city. Just don’t come here without ordering the Beetroot Supreme, a glorious creation with a whole beet stuffed with mascarpone-ricotta and some kind of obviously magic ingredient they don’t list on the menu. It’s one of the most memorable dishes in New Orleans. Overall, fans of high-end steaks will not be disappointed, nor will oenophiles, cocktail enthusiasts, or indeed anyone that wants a genuinely memorable eating experience." - Paul Oswell
"A different kind of steakhouse The vibe Sultry The crowd Always in good spirits The drinks Inventive cocktails and wonderful wines The food Dry aged steaks FTW" - Paul Oswell
"On the heels of an insanely successful outpost in Costa Rica (and a spot in Israel before that), restaurateurs Itai Ben Eli and Doris Reba Chia chose the Crescent City for their newest venture: A steakhouse specializing in dry-aged meat, which is why the on-site dry-aging room and a full-time “meat sommelier” make sense. The menu also offers Mediterranean-inflected specialties like lamb chops with tahini yogurt and fresh Gulf fish with a side of tzatziki. The enclosed courtyard offers a nice place to escape the madness of Chartres Street. "
"For a high-end date night, light the candles, pull out the fine China, and order the lamb chops, bone-in rib-eye, or a porterhouse for two from the French Quarter steakhouse known for its dry-aged beef." - Clair Lorell
