June 23 Japanese retailer Aeon Co plans to raise about 300 billion yen ($3.73 billion) by establishing a real estate investment trust (REIT) as the company looks to reduce debt and improve finances, business daily Nikkei said on Saturday.
Aeon expects to raise up to 200 billion yen by listing the REIT on the Tokyo Stock Exchange this year, the paper reported.
The REIT - a first for a Japanese retailer - would likely buy more than 20 domestic properties from Aeon, including its largest shopping center in Saitama Prefecture, for 200-300 billion yen, Nikkei said.
Aeon, which will continue to operate these properties, the business daily reported.

Ed Helms Dishes on Andy's New Position on 'The Office'
The burning question about Michael Scott's successor has been answered in the season 8 premiere of "The Office". James Spader's Robert California took the position for a short time before he was promoted to be a CEO of Sabre, and Andy Bernard becomes the new manager of Dunder Mifflin Scranton branch.
Speaking of what kind of boss he is, Ed Helms who plays Andy says he is "a boss who is terrified of being a boss." The Stu Price of "The Hangover" further details, "He is making an overt attempt to step up his game. ... [He] is also feeling a hell of a lot of pressure and anxiety."
Helms teases there "is a lot of fun to watch unfold, especially when juxtaposed with James Spader's fabulous Robert California." He adds, "In some ways, Michael Scott really believed he was a great manager. Andy's not quite there yet."
Asked by TVLine about how Andy's new position will affect his relationship with Erin, the 37-year-old actor/comedian explains, "Erin and Andy are basically two weirdoes who are attracted to each other, but incapable of understanding each other. Add to that a boss-employee dynamic and their awkwardness pretty much goes nuclear, especially around Halloween."

The Casa has fine linens and towels, very comfortable beds and everything you need for cooking in the kitchen. The gardens are spacious and we were within blocks of the down area for a large variety of excellent dining, shopping and galleries. Caroline was very welcoming, we felt right at home and she was also helpful with restaurant recommendations which we took her up on and they were excellent. We will definitely rent from her again, since we love Sante Fe!"Guest: Margit Date of Stay: May 2016 Review Submitted: May 28, 2016View listing

NEW YORK, NY -- (Marketwired) -- 06/02/14 -- ForeverGreen Worldwide Corp. (OTCQB: FVRG) recently raised its forecast for 2014 revenues to $41-50 million after yet another explosive quarter of growth. While strong growth has become commonplace for the company, so too is ForeverGreen being undervalued. Stock Market Media Group (SMMG), a full service research and content development IR firm, has announced that it is extending its coverage on ForeverGreen which began in May 2013, at $0.17/share.
In a new Report, SMMG discusses the very impressive Q1 2014 financials, what has been a successful move to higher margin products, and the near-term future of the company which appears to include yet another quarter of high percentage growth.
Read the new Report: www.stockmarketmediagroup.com/reports.
After reviewing the company's Q1 2014 numbers that showed a 291% increase over the same quarter in 2013, and sales numbers that outperformed forecasts for the quarter, it was clear why ForeverGreen raised its guidance from $30-40 million to $41-50 million in 2014. The company has already reported that Q2 2014 has gotten off to a very strong start with April 2014 reporting a 275% increase in sales over those same numbers in April 2013.
The Report also takes a closer look at the company's decision to grow the FGXpress brand. It is this brand that gave us PowerStrips and in 2014 introduced SolarStrips under the FGXpress label. Since the move to these higher margin products, ForeverGreen has seen an explosion in its revenues, and the brand now has the company realizing sales in almost 170 countries around the globe.
ForeverGreen achieved $17.7 million in revenue in 2013, a 41% increase over 2012 revenue, but with the newly announced forecast, the company is on pace in 2014 to triple its 2013 sales. For these reasons and others laid out in the Report, SMMG has extended its coverage on ForeverGreen Worldwide.

This list can only increase because while IoT services should be intuitive and simple to use, the delivery ecosystem is a myriad of potential problems as IoT explodes complexity. So finding a performance issue is like finding the proverbial needle in the haystack.

|Connelly's Top Ten: Sox Done / Celtics 50 Wins – One Playoff Round / Belichick Contract Extension
|Yoan Moncada and the Red Sox
|Connelly's Top Ten: David OverPriced, Sunday Bird, Complete Games (Or Not)
|Two Red Sox Players Considered Serious MVP Candidates
Where was this Red Sox team over the weekend against the Orioles — a team that is now 4-2 against the good guys and 3-17 against everyone else? The Red Sox made up for their lack of production over the weekend (…hell, even over the last week) with a 20-hit, 17-run performance against the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim on Monday night in a 17-8 win.
J.D. Drew finished 4-5 with three RBI and Mike Lowell went a perfect 4-4 with two runs scored and four RBI to lead seven Red Sox starters with at least two hits. Dustin Pedroia only had one hit, but he made it count with a three-run HR with two outs in the sixth to clear the bases and cap off a seven-run rally for the Sox in the inning.
Clay Buchholz wasn't as sharp as his last outing, but he was good enough in his 5.2 innings. He allowed four runs on eight hits and three walks, but earned the win to improve to 3-2 on the season with a team-leading 2.97 ERA among the starters.
Lowell went 4-4, improving his batting average by 78 points (from .222 to .300). He also scored two runs and had four RBI as he continues to prove he can still hit at the major league level. Do you think there's anyone interested in his services yet?
Management just gave Scott Schoeneweis a "vote of confidence" by sending fellow lefty Alan Embree packing, but Schoeneweis did nothing to impress Sox brass on Monday. Working the ninth inning and staked with a 13-run lead, there's no way he could totally blow it, right? No. But, he did what he could and allowed four runs on four hits and two walks in the inning.
W: Clay Buchholz (3-2)
L: Joe Saunders (1-5)

The present invention relates to heavy-duty friction clutches of the type used for large automotive vehicles such as trucks, tractor-trailers, and the like and, more particularly, to a torque-limiting clutch brake assembly.
The use and function of a clutch brake are well known in the art, as discussed, for example, by Flowtow et al. (U.S. Pat. No. 4,762,215) and Babcock (U.S. Pat. No. 4,512,450). A clutch brake is a device used to facilitate shifting by retarding the rotation of transmission gears when the clutch is disengaged by the vehicle operator. Typically, a clutch brake is a disk-shaped device which is splined to the gearbox input or drive shaft of a transmission and is activated by a throw-out mechanism when the clutch is disengaged. The spinning clutch brake is thereby sandwiched between the throw-out mechanism and gearbox housing, creating a frictional drag or braking effect to slow the input shaft.
In normal use, a clutch brake wears out and must be replaced, which usually requires lowering and disassembling the vehicle transmission--a time consuming and expensive procedure. However, Babcock (U.S. Pat. No. 4,512,450) discloses a design in which the clutch brake splits into halves so that it can be replaced without extensive disassembly of the transmission. This greatly reduces the cost of replacement.
Torque-limiting designs take a different approach. They reduce the frequency of replacement necessary by improving clutch brake longevity. They accomplish this by permitting the clutch brake to slip when excessive braking pressure is applied, thereby avoiding the excessive stresses which contribute to wear and tear. Also, unlike traditional designs, a torque-limiting clutch brake will not disrupt vehicle operation when improperly applied. Torque-limiting clutch brakes, such as Flowtow et al. (U.S. Pat. No. 4,762,215), have heretofore used a friction coupling between an outer housing and inner collar member. When the torsional force between the housing and collar is too great, they slip relative to each other and thereby avoid damage.
While such torque-limiting designs work relatively well for their intended purpose, the clutch brake still eventually fails and must be replaced. However, prior art torque-limiting clutch brake designs do not split into halves and so must be replaced by lowering and disassembling the clutch and transmission. Furthermore, the components used in prior art friction type torque-limiting mechanisms must be of constant dimension and have no discontinuities in order to maintain a constant slip torque. Therefore, these designs can not readily be made in splittable sections because such sections inherently have discontinuities.
Accordingly, it is a principle object of the present invention to provide a torque-limiting clutch brake which can be removed and installed without disassembling the transmission.
More particularly, it is an object to provide a torque-limiting clutch brake which can be split into halves and put back together.
A related object is to provide an improved torque-limiting mechanism which facilitates such a split design.
These objects, as well as others that will become apparent upon reference to the accompanying drawings and following detailed description, are provided by a clutch brake which has a torque-limiting detent mechanism and which splits into sections for convenient removal and installation.
An annular inner collar member fits around and engages a transmission gearbox input shaft. This collar includes two semi-circular sections and has one or more catch structures on its outer surface. Rather than using a frictional resistance to rotation, the collar is physically engaged by a torque-limiting intermediate coupling member which includes a resilient detent mechanism. The detent mechanism is adapted to conditionally engage the catch structures of the collar so long as torque on the clutch brake is below a certain force, but release the collar to rotate if torque becomes too great. The above apparatus is contained by an annular outer housing which also splits into semi-circular sections to facilitate convenient removal and installation.
In describing the preferred embodiment, reference is made to the accompanying drawings wherein:
FIG. 1 is a plan view of a torque-limiting clutch brake assembly according to the present invention with portions broken away to show detail;
FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view of the clutch brake assembly taken along line A--A in FIG. 1; and
FIG. 3 is an exploded perspective view of the inventive clutch brake assembly.
Turning to the figures of the drawings, there is seen in FIG. 1 a clutch brake assembly, generally indicated by 10, which is both torque-limiting and conveniently replaceable.
As best seen in FIG. 3, the preferred embodiment of the present invention is made up of a plurality of ring-shaped members, all of which are preferably made up of two half-ring or semi-circular sections. This sectional design allows the brake to be split into halves for convenient removal and replacement.
The innermost member is collar 12 and includes two halves 12a, 12b, each of which has an inwardly projecting tang 14. The tangs 14 form splines that cooperate with keyways on the gearbox input shaft (not shown) so that rotation of the input shaft drivingly rotates inner collar 12. On the outer surface of collar 12 there are one or more relief or catch structures which can be physically engaged by a resilient detent member, as will be described presently, to prevent the collar from rotating. Specifically, the outer circumferential edge of each half 12a, 12b of inner collar 12 has a depression or indentation 16a, 16b, as best seen in FIG. 1.
Returning to FIG. 3, in the preferred embodiment inner collar 12 is retained by intermediate coupling member 20, which also has two semi-circular halves 20a, 20b. Each half 20a, 20b of coupling member 20 has a resilient peninsula-like arm 22. The free end of each arm 22a, 22b includes an inwardly projecting detent 23a, 23b which is adapted to engage a corresponding depression 16a, 16b in the inner collar 12 when coupling member 20 is placed around inner collar 12, as best seen in FIG. 1. In the preferred embodiment, semi-circular section 12a includes two depressions 16a, and semi-circular section 12b includes two depressions 16b.
Returning again to FIG. 3, each half 20a, 20b of the coupling member 20 has two aligning tabs 24. These aligning tabs 24 are received within aligning slots 32 located in a two-part spacer ring 30. Coupling member 20 also has a pair of axially extending flanges 26 located along its outer edge. The spacer ring 30 has an outer circumference sized so that it will fit within flanges 26. As best seen in FIG. 2, the combined thickness of spacer ring 30 and coupling member 20 is approximately equal to the thickness of inner collar 12.
The inner members of the clutch brake are contained in an outer housing which, as best seen in FIG. 3, includes two interlocking covers 40 and 50. Cover 40 is made of two semi-circular sections 40a, 40b. Each section 40a, 40b has a mating tab 42a, 42b and notch 43a, 43b which fit with the notch and tab of its corresponding semi-circular section and thereby helps stabilize union of the two sections when installed. As best seen in FIG. 2, cover 40 has a lip portion 46 and an interlock flange 48. When assembled, coupling member 20 rests in the depression of cover 40, with the lip portion 46 disposed about the outer edge of coupling member 20.
Returning to FIG. 3, the other cover 50 is also made of two semi-circular sections 50a, 50b. As with cover 40, each section 50a, 50b also has a mating tab 52a, 52b which fits into a notch 53a, 53b of its corresponding semi-circular section. As best seen in FIG. 2, cover 50 has a lip portion 56 which seats the spacer ring 30 and a straight flange 58 which extends radially from lip portion 56. Interlock flange 48 of cover 40 hooks around straight flange 58 of cover 50, thereby joining the two covers together, as best seen in FIG. 2. Also, as best seen in FIG. 3, there are two discontinuities in the straight flange 58 which align with flanges 26 of coupling member 20. As assembled, flanges 26 fit through these discontinuities so that coupling member 20 positively engages cover 50.
Both covers 40, 50 have friction facings 60 glued to their outer surfaces. These friction facings are also in the form of semi-circular sections 60a, 60b and match the cover sections 40a, 40b and 50a, 50b.
The entire assembly is held together with a clamp ring 70, which also has two sections 70a, 70b. As best seen in FIG. 2, clamp ring sections 70a, 70b are generally U-shaped in axial cross-section and fit around the outside of interlock flange 48 of cover 40. The two sections 70a, 70b of clamp ring 70 are fastened together by clamp tabs 72 which fit into clamp slots 74, as best seen in FIG. 3, and thereby secure the clutch brake assembly together, as best shown in FIG. 1.
When installed around a gearbox input shaft with the clutch and transmission in place in a vehicle (not shown), the clutch brake assembly 10 described above operates in generally the same manner as other clutch brakes. When the driver of the vehicle depresses the clutch pedal a certain distance, the clutch brake assembly is forced against the gearbox housing so that a frictional torsion force is developed and transmitted from the outer housing covers 40 and 50 through the intermediate coupling member 20 to the inner collar 12, which thereby brakes the rotating input shaft. However, in contrast to prior torque-limiting clutch brakes, if the torque on the clutch brake assembly becomes excessive, resilient detent arms 22 of intermediate coupling member 20 are forced out of their depressions 16 of inner collar 12 (as best seen in FIG. 1) and inner collar -2 then spins independent of the clutch brake external housing thereby relieving the excessive torsional stress on the clutch brake. Inner collar 12 will spin until torque on the clutch brake assembly is reduced to the point where detent arms 22 again become engagingly lodged in their corresponding depressions 16.
Using a detent mechanism for limiting the torque on a clutch brake according to the present invention has several benefits. First, and foremost, it will not be significantly impaired by the presence of grooves at the interface of the two inner collar sections 12. When inner collar 12 spins due to excessive torque, detent arms 22 will pass over any grooves or imperfections in the surface of inner collar 12, so long as such grooves are no greater than depressions 16a, 16b. Accordingly, inner collar 12 can be made in sections without degrading the effectiveness and consistency of the torque-limiting feature. Second, a mechanical detent mechanism generates less heat than a frictional torque-limiting design, and therefore the clutch brake may last longer. Third, since the parts used are less susceptible to minor imperfections, a mechanical detent torque-limiting design may cost less to manufacture.
When the clutch brake according to the present invention eventually does wear out, it can be replaced at a substantial savings in cost over other torque-limiting clutch brakes because it is not necessary to lower and disassemble the transmission.
From the foregoing, it can be seen that a torque-limiting clutch brake for facilitating the shifting of gears in a vehicle having a friction clutch has been provided which fully meets the objects of the instant invention. While the device has been described in the terms of a preferred embodiment, there is no intent to limit the invention to the same. On the contrary, it is intended to cover all modifications and equivalents within the scope of the appended claims. Moreover, it should be emphasized that many variations of the present invention will be apparent to one skilled in the art. For example, the semi-circular sections described in the preferred embodiment could have a wide range of generally crescent-like or semi-circular shapes. Furthermore, a torque-limiting design where detents are located on the sides surfaces, rather than outer circumferential edge, of an inner collar or its equivalent could be made according to the present invention. Similarly, a wide range of resilient detent and catch structures could readily be designed, such as using projections, instead of depressions, on the inner collar to catch a resilient detent; or making the resilient detent arm as part of the inner collar member rather than the intermediate coupling member.

Healthy progress at Numurkah
The new Numurkah hospital is taking shape following the flooding in 2012 that made the old facility unusable.JENNA BISHOP August 27, 2014 3:54am
Steel beam by steel beam, the new Numurkah hospital is quickly taking shape.
More than 35 contractors are working on the site, with the number set to increase to 65 as construction develops.
Construction began on the hospital in January, following an allocation of $18.3 million in last year's Victorian budget to rebuild.
The old building was deemed unusable after suffering flood damage in 2012.
The hospital has been operating out of temporary facilities since the flood.
Numurkah District Health Service acting chief executive Wendy Ross said the building was starting to take a clear shape.
''It's all progressing quite well. We lost a little time to the weather and rain, but now we have a roof on, things will be progressing quickly,'' she said.
''The roof means that even if it rains, work can continue.''
The main medical part of the building, which will house theatre, X-ray and ultrasound equipment, is expected to be completed by mid next year.
Internal construction has started in sections of the community health building, which is expected to be completed by the end of the year. The community building's outer walls, featuring modern green and white brickwork, have also started to take shape.
Ms Ross said the community health section would be a space for primary care services, including general practitioners, physiotherapists and occupational therapists.
The new building will also have a dental clinic, the town's first dental service in more than 20 years.
''The community did a lot of fundraising for the dental clinic,'' Ms Ross said.
''We've been really well supported by the community, with their fundraising for different sections of the hospital.''
A children's playground will also be built at the rear of the hospital, also made possible through community fundraising.
''If people have appointments or are visiting people in hospital, it's nice to have a space for children to play at the hospital,'' Ms Ross said.
Foundations have also been poured on the site's eastern side, ready for construction of a theatre area.
Basic founding structures have also started to be built at the rear of the site's eastern side.
Ms Ross said pre-cast concrete sections fabricated in Shepparton had recently been delivered to the site, which will form part of the entranceway.
More sections are expected to be delivered to form the outer walls as construction continues.
Ms Ross said the building would also feature a hexagon design on some walls and interior furnishings.
''The community has been really excited to see it go up,'' she said.

Between the 13th and the 14th of September, the Dockwise semi-submersible, heavy-marine transport vessel, Mighty Servant 1, was safely escorted by EUNAVFOR warships through the Internationally Recommended Transit Corridor (IRTC) in the Gulf of Aden.
Dockwise is the world leader in heavy-ocean transport and installation, operating the largest fleet of 20 specialized vessels, which are able to transport inconceivably large and heavy cargoes, some weighing up to 76,000 metric tons. The Mighty Servant 1 is currently transporting the Gjøa Hull from Korea to Norway. The EUNAVFOR Belgian warship Louise-Marie, participating in the European Operation Atalanta, was tasked to escort the Mighty Servant 1 for two days before handing her over to EUNAVFOR Swedish warships K11, STOCKHOLM and K12, MALMO, which continued the escort. The Dutch Commander Bindt of warship HM Evertsen is currently in command of Operation Atalanta. EUNAVFOR, the NATO Task Force and TF 151, of the Combined Maritime Forces coordinate their efforts for the protection of all shipping in the IRTC in the Gulf of Aden. Dockwise, adopting the Best Management Practices as advertised on the MSCHOA website, registered the Mighty Servant 1 with MSCHOA, which guaranteed that she was particularly monitored during the transit through the protected IRTC.

NEWCASTLE UPON TYNE, ENGLAND - DECEMBER 05: Amir Khan is declared winner after his fight against Dmitriy Salita (USA) for the WBA Light Welterweight title on December 5, 2009 in Newcastle upon Tyne, England. (Photo by John Gichigi/Getty Images)
What's next for Amir Khan After a crushing defeat to Danny Garcia this weekend, Amir 'King' Khan's career seems to be in disarray. Many now question Khan's ability to fight against tougher opponents, and some critics, such as fellow British boxer Carl Froch, have even suggested retirement. However, let us take a look at some possible opponents Amir may still be able to come up against. Khan, just 25 years old, has plenty of time to come back even better than ever, and he could also choose to jump right back in there with another big name. Here are 5 potential next fights for Khan - consider this a wish list of the fights we'd like to see, but not those which are the most likely to happen. Credit: Ed Mulholland - HBO Timothy Bradley- If Bradley-Pacquaio II does not occur, Bradley may choose to fight Amir next instead, as he had always received criticism for not facing him last summer. However, Amir's latest defeat may push him further away from Bradley, and in his recent stat...

Commemoration and celebration at Shepparton Mother's Day Classic
Hundreds of participants headed to Victoria Park Lake for Shepparton's Mother's Day Classic, which was one of 88 events held across Australia to raise money for breast cancer research.DARREN LINTON May 12, 2014 3:09am
Victoria Park Lake was shrouded in fog yesterday, but the sea of pink readying for the Mother's Day Classic was the perfect foil for the gloom.
The event was one of 88 across Australia to raise money for breast cancer research.
Many of those participating have been touched by breast cancer, a disease that kills seven women, on average, every day in Australia.
Judy Mongan was walking yesterday in memory of her mother Joyce Dixon, who died from breast cancer five years ago.
''It is an excellent day, it brings attention to breast cancer and it is nice for those with someone who isn't here to do it in their memory,'' Ms Mongan said.
''We called into the cemetery on the way here and I told her what I was doing.''
Organiser Anne Maclean said the event struck a good balance of commemoration and celebration with a minute's silence observed before the run and walk starts.
''At the start it is quite solemn when we do the minute's silence, but we also want to celebrate families and life,'' Ms Maclean said.
Despite the fog, about 700 people of all ages participated and the fundraising tally is expected to be about $20

'BLKMarket Membership 4 Year Anniversary Party'
Residents Taimur and Fahad are throwing most of this year's series of anniversary parties at secret locations, so this Love bash is the only one to make these pages. Tonight they host Innervisions' boss, Dixon. Like his pals Henrik Schwarz and Ame, Dixon configures techno as immaculate soul music. Theirs is a music more organic (and American-leaning) than that of their Euro-minimal peers, but it's never messy. Expect an intricate, irresistible, airy groove.

Dickie Brennan's Steakhouse Ratings and Reviews
My wife and I made reservations for the ...
My wife and I made reservations for the two of us. We were seated in an area with several large parties. I noticed other parties of two were seated away from the large parties in the booths. Our wait team changed three times. It took an extra long time for our drink order to be taken as well as our food order. We've eaten at several Brennan restaurants and have never had an experience this disappointing. As far as the food, our bread was cold and the steaks were bland. Very disappointed.
We had a fantastic meal. We were celebra ...
We had a fantastic meal. We were celebrating our anniversary.
The crab cake is simple - a pile of lump crabmeat barely head together then heated through on a skillet. Not much cake, mostly just crab. If you like crabmeat, it's amazing. It's real picked crabmeat, so don't be shocked by a few pieces of shell.
We split a wedge salad. It's nice that they'll split it for you. It's a rich salad with blue cheese, bacon and some other small tasty nuggets. I don't mind sharing a plate with my wife, but this way we didn't have to fight over the bacon :). A whole salad for each would've been too much food.
For entrees, I got the porterhouse with Hollandaise, my wife got the house filet which comes with spinach, oysters and potatoes in a combination. Both cuts of meat were impressive and cooked perfectly. We added a side of asparagus, which wasn't needed. They were delicious, but it was too much food. We took home half of the entrees.
Cocktails - I had an old fashioned before and after dinner. The first one was a little sweet to my taste, but certainly within range of the drink. The second was exactly to my liking, as was the third. They use Luxardo cherries (I assume-if not, I need to find out what they were) which are worlds better than standard candy-red maraschinos. My wife had a specialty cocktail that had ginger, rum and berries. Light and refreshing without being overly sweet or watery.
We had wine with the steaks - each by the glass. Mine was a red (Jacob something?) that was very rich and dry. Perfect with the big cut of meat. She had a white that I don't remember, but was very nice as well.
We skipped dessert because of how full we were. It was a great meal overall. Service is very friendly and relaxed. They were attentive without always being in our face, which was what we wanted for this occasion.
The food was very good - the service was ...
The food was very good - the service was also very good -
BUT it felt like an assembly line - there was no southern charm -
it was more like let me serve you very proper and you can leave.
Please do not misunderstand - no one was rude, but that joie de vivre was not there.
Wife and I ate dinner here on 7/24/16, i ...
Wife and I ate dinner here on 7/24/16, it was our 5th anniversary. EVERYTHING about our experience was outstanding! My prime rib and her filet were both excellent, cooked to perfection. We had three sides - pontalba potatoes, onion rings, and truffle mac and cheese - all to die for. And we had three (!!!) desserts. The banana foster bread pudding was an "A", and the chocolate cake and coconut cake were both A+. I don't like coconut and I couldn't get enough of that cake!
We eat out quite a bit, plenty of times at steakhouses like Ruth's Chris, Morton's, Sullivan's, and Shula's. Dickie Brennan's was as good as the *best* experiences we've had at those places. Highly recommended!
One of the best steaks I've ever had. T ...
One of the best steaks I've ever had. The service was wonderful, and did I say that the steak was incredible?
I ordered the 16oz USDA Prime Strip, medium. It came out the most perfect definition of medium that one could hope for, and the creole spices put it over the top.
Dickie Brennan's Steakhouse has always b ...
Dickie Brennan's Steakhouse has always been one of our favorite restaurants in New Orleans. The food is excellent and the atmosphere is elegant. The service is impeccable. We keep going back after years of trying different places. You can not go wrong with any of Brennan's restaurants!

We were extremely impressed with the staff at Dickie Brennan's Steakhouse. They were all very personable, attentive and knowledgeable. The steak and potatoes were wonderful and the dessert to die for. The ambiance of the restaurant is awesome. We will definitely come back!
We have been coming to Dickie Brennan's ...
We have been coming to Dickie Brennan's now for about 16 years---it is our "go to" steakhouse. the service is top notch and the food is not only delicious but consistent. Their steaks are superior and the staff is knowledgeable and helpful. They are never hovering but are always making sure that your water glass is never empty that there are never "too many crumbs" on the table and seem to "appear" at just the right moment when you need something! We took a couple to the restaurant on our last visit who had never been there before. We feel confident that they were also impressed with the Restaurant and would return on their own accord! Dickies is annually our anniversary celebration spot and we look forward to many more years to come!
The round booths are nice and better for ...
The round booths are nice and better for conversation. The noise level can get loud but overall the atmosphere is very nice. The men who come table to table and sing are delightful!! The food is very good and the wine list is extraordinary! We went for my birthday with friends and had a wonderful evening. We spent the entire evening there starting with cocktails through dessert. It is a great place for a summer night in NOLA. We live in NOLA so it takes a lot to impress.

We eat here often. This was the third time we ordered the chateaubriand, which is indeed a good value for the money. The first time it was perfect, the second time a little less so, but this time the meat was overdone, but not enough to send it back.
The Steakhouse has become very uneven in its food quality and preparation. Feels like no one is in charge of these or exercising quality control. In a steakhouse, the meat should always be perfectly cooked every time.

We had heard from several friends that Dickie Brennan's was not as good as it used to be. We totally disregarded the comments because we have always loved everything about this restaurant! Saturday night was a disappointment. My straight up Martina was warm. It seemed as though it was not shaken with ice and the glass was not even cold. When my turtle soup was brought, no one offered sherry. My rib eye was fatty but what I did eat was good. Three out of three baked potatoes at the table were cold (the butter wouldn't even melt). When asked about dessert, the waiter told us what he liked and didn't like. When we asked if cheese cake was available the waiter then provided us with the dessert menu. I am really sad! On a good note, our drink waiter was so personable!

Steakhouse with a twist. Onion rings were delicious and unusual-I think they were coated in Italian breadcrumbs. The sautéed mushrooms were a blend of several types, also outstanding. We split the porterhouse; cooked to perfection (med rare) and juicy. You can't go wrong here!

Ambiance and the attentiveness of your staff was OUTSTANDING. Food was "sufficient" but could've been better for the price. Biggest complaint was the Tree-like Asparagus! not sure if that was a one time bad batch or the norm. Some items were cold (Baked Sweet Potato) but in all fairness I didn't express my complaint.

Wow. I was truly amazed by the exceptional service here and the quality of the food. Lagniappe was truly evident here. It is quite expensive however well worth it for the dining experience. Appetizers i had oysters and the soft shell crab. The cowboy rib eye and gulf shrimp were fantastic along with shanterelle mushrooms and home fries. One of the best meals ive ever had the pleasure to experience. Truly one of the best restaurants New Orleans has to offer, and a quintessential fine dining experience that you can only get in the United States. I love this place and will be back if im in town again.

I got a rib eye and my wife got a fillet. The other couple we were with got the same that we did.
We have eaten there many times in the past and have never been disappointed, but my rib eye this time had a lot of gristle and my baked potato was a bit cold and dry. I feel like I was picked on (lol) because everyone else's meal was superb. While a bit disappointed I will chalk this up as an exception and definitely go back again, and again...

The food and services were the best we have had in a long time. The steak just simply melted in your mouth! The team that waited on us were very informative, extremely nice and aimed to please. The atmosphere was divine! We were celebrating our 37th wedding Anniversay which made all the above that much more special!
Thanks again for such a pleasurable experience and it will always be the top of our list of places we will always return to when we visit New Orleans again

My wife and I took a client here for dinner during a recent conference and it was an excellent choice. A perfect mix of New Orleans flare and upscale dining.
From the Shrimp & Grits appetizer, the entrees, and all the way through to the coconut cake, everything was delicious.
Thanks for helping me make an impression!

Unfortunately, the $48 steak i had was grocery story quality--very tough and gristly. This is not what i expected from a Brennan named restaurant. The service level started out OK but seemed to drop off as the meal progressed. Not a memorable experience.

When visiting New Orleans with my wife and teenage grandson, we were looking for a place in the French quarter that offered get beef as well as authentic Cajun cuisine since with even 3 people we had 3 ideas of what we wanted for supper! Dickie Brennan's was perfect. Not only was the food over the top great but the entire wait staff could not have been better. Rarely if ever have I had better service, better food or a better environment. Well done!!!!!

Steak was overcooked but still had an excellent flavor. Baked potato was huge and tasty. The best part of the meal was the dessert which was fantastic. Overall a good experience but I prefer other steak houses in this price range.
