From the bar, and from certain seats around the dining room, you can still see the casino floor.

But at the table what you’re seeing is Emeril Lagasse‘s ode to French food, told with steak frites, seafood towers, French wine and nods to the chef’s own time working with French masters.

Emeril’s Brasserie is the newest restaurant from the celebrity chef, and it’s inside Harrah’s Casino in New Orleans. The restaurant has been open for walk-up service for the past few days, and beginning to book reservations for Nov. 8 and on.

It’s the latest change, and on the food and drink side by far the most high-profile change, as the casino gradually becomes a Caesars property.
