History

Established in 1935.

Rips, which is nearly 80 years old, sits right across the street from Lake Pontchartrain. Rebuilt after Katrina, the result is a more elegant restaurant with a beautiful covered front porch, which is perfect for al fresco dining, and enjoys an incomparable view of the lake. Roslyn Prieto is the chef and she created the recipes. «This is my life» she says. «I just love it. I first started cooking for my grandparents when I was 8 years old. I used to climb up on the counter to cook. I’ve loved cooking ever since.» For lunch, Rips has great oyster, shrimp, and catfish po-​boys as well as upscale specials such as crabmeat stuffed tilapia topped with grilled shrimp; blackened tuna on a bed of shrimp scampi pasta; and black and blue salad.
