Chef Frank Brigtsen utilizes his native New Orleans palate to create dishes that pay tribute to the traditions of Louisiana cuisine. A restaurant critic for The Times-Picayune described Frank's interpretation of Creole/Acadian food as a "reaffirmation that Louisiana cooking is America's most durable and satisfying. Brigtsen's is now the place against which all other restaurants serving South Louisiana cuisine have to be measured." Over the years Frank has been named a Food & Wine “Best New Chef,” New Orleans magazine “Chef of the Year,” and Best Chef Southeast by the James Beard Foundation.
