Reviews for Desi Vega's Steakhouse in Covington, LA
We expected a five star dining experience, and that's exactly what we received. From the time we entered, we felt pampered.... Every suggestion from the waitstaff was beyond reproach. The owner was actually there and had the class to bring complimentaryshots for my companion's birthday and actually toasted with us I enjoy the fact that the complimentary appetizer is a homemademeatball in a traditional red sauce with garlic bread. The Osso Buco was delectable and was accompanied by a pureed cauliflowerthat was so smooth it had a mash potato texture. The cocktails were perfect, and the dessert was simply fanciful. I felt like akid. If presentation is everything, then this place is standard. The seating makes for a intimate, relaxing date night. Read more
First time here. Had the signature Prime Smoke cocktail. It was delish, like a tropical punch. Complimentary meatball and garlic... bread were provided for each party. Service and food were great. The egg rolls were a miss for me just because of how much saucewas on them. Ribeye was wonderful. The garlic mashed potatoes were good. The confetti Heaven dessert was too sweet and tastedcoconutty, which I kinda hate. The frosting was also way too sweet. Manager or owner, I?m not sure who, came by to ask how weenjoyed our meal. We dined on a Saturday night with a Dean Martin type live singer in the Apres lounge. We liked being seated inhere for dinner. Music before the singer came on was pop and was not too loud for us. Overall, a cool hip vibe. We will mostdefinitely dine here again. Read more

Service - A+. Atmosphere - A+. Food - B+ This was a little hard to review. Everything about the restaurant was top... notch. Love the settings....love the service....live music was great...attention to detail...beyond friendly servers. The onlyreason I have 4 stars instead of 5 is because at this price the food was not quite at the level I expected. It was good ...butat these prices I have had better food from other places. It might just be a case where they set expectations so high in everyother area that the slightest weak spot shows up more. I would happily go back ...but I have found better steaks at this pricein other areas, same for most of the other food. If they were just 1 step down in price point they would be 5 star across theboard. But comparing them to others at this same price point I have to be fair....they nail it in every other area. If you arelooking for "very good" food vs "excellent food", with world class atmosphere and service, they are spot on. Read more
We had an excellent dining experience! Cheyenne and Eric were awesome. I had the flash fried snapper with mashed potatoes and... spinach. I highly recommend this flavorful dish. My visit would not be complete without the Prime Smoke Show cocktail. Do yourself a favor and try it, you will not regret it. Read more
I was completely blown away! The service was impeccable! The food was amazing! I would give this place 10 stars if I could!... Definitely coming back this is my new go to place! Read more
Excellent experience!!! I enjoyed a wonderful birthday dinner with amazing food and service!
We really love the dining experience at Desi's and will be back soon. On a slight downer, the ribeye we had was not the greatest... cut, which is likely an outlier for them. The service makes you feel like a VIP. Read more
