A Round with Ryan
As a kid, I used to love when my family would get together for fish frys. My dad and his brothers would spend the day catching the fish and that night, my mom and my aunts would clean and fry the fish. It was a huge family affair, and as I see it now, no one was spared.
Recently I had memories of those nights come flooding back when I visited Gattuso’s Restaurant in Gretna. Located in the center of town at 435 Huey P. Long Avenue, Gattuso’s offers a true down home menu consisting of burgers, wraps, spaghetti and meatballs, eggplant parm, and baby back ribs for lunch and dinner. The sloppy roast beef po-boy is the local’s favorite, along with Gattuso’s Amber Draft.
Kids eat half price from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m. on Tuesdays, and everybody eats well all the time. With indoor and outdoor covered dinning, the restaurant meets the needs for two people to twenty people.
The real catch is Ladies Night every Wednesday from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m., where women drink free and happy hour daily from 4 p.m. to 7p.m.
Look for live music every Friday night and Saturday night, featuring local talents the likes of “The All Purpose Blues Band”, “Will Work for Whiskey”, and “Soul Dogs”.
Food, music, and specials aside, the atmosphere that owner Brad Gattuso has created is both memorable and enjoyable and is the perfect way to cap off a day at the fest.
That is why Gattuso’s Neighborhood Bar and Restaurant is the number 3 RyRy Hotpick.
