Lights are In at Upcoming Brunch Spot The Westendorff

There's a bright new addition to the corner of St. Philip and Warren Streets, and it's not the glowing restoration of The Westendorff — the first floor dining room is filled with luster from fancy new light fixtures.

Restauranteur Steven Niketas has spent the past year meticulously rehabilitating the building at 114 St. Philip St. Upcoming eatery The Westendorff is slated to open in June with a menu of brunch items segueing to classic dinners from chef Christopher "Ted" Jackson.
