GW Fins
Louisiana
GW Fins is a seafood restaurant on Bienville Street in New Orleans, led by executive chef Michael Nelson. Local and international suppliers provide more than a dozen varieties of seafood, with the menu printed each afternoon to reflect that day’s catch. Seasonality therefore shapes the meal from the outset. Scalibut is a signature combination of halibut and sea scallops, served with Royal Red prawn risotto. Other preparations show the kitchen’s range, from tempura fin wings with Korean glaze to dry-aged swordfish and bluefin tuna. Firecracker tuna tacos and snapper ceviche add chilled options, while seafood pastas bring the fish selection into another format.
