Open since 1990, The Dakota has been a trailblazer in the culinary world on the Northshore of Lake Pontchartrain. Their menu is a fusion of Creole cuisine with a modern Louisiana twist, drawing inspiration from the Southwest, California, and Asia while utilizing fresh, local ingredients. The wine selection at The Dakota showcases carefully chosen wines from North America alongside traditional European styles. In 2023, The Dakota relocated to a new spot in Historic Downtown Covington, just a stone's throw away from the famous Southern Hotel. The Dakota remains a standout destination for those seeking expertly crafted dishes, impeccable service, elegant decor, and warm hospitality.
A recent visit to Dakota revealed a mixed experience. Seating in an offshoot barn left diners feeling isolated, despite the beautiful main dining room being visible. Complaints about the quality of the veal and small portion sizes were balanced by praise for delicious oysters, soups, and entrees. The atmosphere and service were generally positive, although a person changing from Tevas to shoes at the entrance was off-putting. Despite some inconsistencies, the restaurant's long-standing reputation, attentive service, and overall quality of food appeared to outweigh these drawbacks, with many patrons vowing to return. Dakota presents an inviting ambiance and delightful culinary journey.
