Food: This menu daringly meanders

Westend's creative boundary-pushing dishes are a dream come true. Peel away layers of flavor with the crisp, perfect Brussels sprouts, melt-in-your-mouth beignets, and the authentic Cajun Po Boy that's so generous, you'll think you're in New Orleans. The freshness is a recurrent theme, but bear in mind, you might stumble upon items unavailable from a menu that takes courageous strides off the beaten path.

  • Great Quality

    Reviewers love the freshness and homemade quality of the food served.

  • Bad Variety

    Menu items often unavailable, leading to disappointing dining experiences.

Vibe: Fervently oozing unparalleled romance

Westend flaunts an ambiance that is as memorable as it is intimate. It's laced with cool music, and sips of amazing craft cocktails. Be prepared to succumb to the intimate, romantic, and unforgettable nights narrated by live music. It's a trendy, buzzing hideout where you and your date can explore an unapologetic allure.

  • Great To Entertain

    Live music enhances dining experience, creating unforgettable atmosphere for guests.

Perks: Quite a mixed bag, honestly

Service at Westend induces a paradox: it's of an appreciable demeanor, sprinkled with moments of slowness. There's a welcoming vegan menu, a pet-friendly patio space, and an electric fireplace that burns through chilly doubts, but park your expectations when it comes to parking, group-friendliness, and hushed tones, for they're nowhere to be found here.

  • Great Outdoor

    Secluded, cozy, intimate back patio with lights and electric fireplace.

  • Okay To Reserve

    Reservations are encouraged but not always necessary for seating.

  • Bad For Groups

    Cannot accommodate large parties, leading to disappointing group experiences.
