Steakhouse
The Red Maple was originally owned and operated by the Trauth Family, a German-American family of restaurateurs spanning 100 years in Gretna. And what began in 1963 continues to this day, holding to its German roots through its rustic Alpine lodge decor, extensive beer selection and annual Oktoberfest celebration. In fact, it was a red maple tree in the side yard that inspired the name of the bar – The Red Maple – with the restaurant being added in 1965.

Now for over 50 years, The Red Maple has been the rendezvous spot for West Bank movers and shakers known for its Prime cut steaks, New Orleans favorites and fresh Louisiana seafood.

Today, under the passionate guidance of Proprietor Brent Trauth and his sister, Carroll Gales, The Red Maple continues to deliver on its reputation for delicious food, exceptional service and rich Louisiana history. A rich and storied past that is only upstaged by the dining experience itself.

    For starters, I honestly wasn't expecting much in a $37 steak dinner. But, I must say that I was honestly blown away. Our steaks were juicy and melted in our mouths. The shrimp appetizer was awesome as well. The only thing I didn't care for was the salad. It was huge and was just a basic salad. Needless to say, I thoroughly enjoyed our little date night!😘

    The seafood (shrimp and crab) was unseasoned and flavorless.

    For the quality of food, the prices were exorbitant. We could have gone to a much nicer restaurant. Our waiter took 45 minutes to take our food order, and that wasn’t until we had to ask for another server to find him.
