- VvmcnealNew Orleans / Louisiana •13 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoMy birthday was extra special at Gallighers. Louis provided outstanding service going over and beyond to make me feel special. The food was amazing! I had sautéed popamno topped with lump crab meat and my husband had soft shell crab which he said was one of the best he’d ever had. With potatoes au gratin. Complimented me with a desert for my birthday. Very nice atmosphere. We love this special place for any special occasion.More infoGallagher's GrillPrice: Very Expensive• Steakhouse• Covington•4.9
