    Condor, and open Andrew Jaeger's House of Seafood & Jazz in the legendary
    North Beach club. He's leased space in the Condor from SAW Entertainment,
    which owns most of the topless clubs on Broadway. Jaeger also has a New

    Andrew Jaeger, a chef from a renowned New Orleans restaurant family, will
    in the next couple of weeks bring his Creole-style recipes and jazz to the
    Condor, and open Andrew Jaeger's House of Seafood & Jazz in the legendary
    North Beach club. He's leased space in the Condor from SAW Entertainment,
    which owns most of the topless clubs on Broadway. Jaeger also has a New
    Orleans restaurant with the same name in the French Quarter, at 300
    Decatur St.
    For his San Francisco restaurant, he says, "I don't know if y'all put a
    spell on me, but I'm sourcing my ingredients, and I'm going to take a look
    at grass-fed beef and organic vegetables."
    Jaeger's bigger-than-life tastes and personality should be a good fit for
    the club that launched the topless club craze in the '60s.
    In recent years, the Condor had morphed into a sports bar, and in the past
    few months had gone upscale decor-wise for a short-lived changeover to a
    burlesque venue. But offering burlesque in a neighborhood with so many
    topless and bottomless attractions was fruitless. The Condor's sign will
    remain; Jaeger will also put up his own sign.
    He will serve food in the dining room-bar area that runs along Columbus
    and offer live jazz in the part of the club that faces Broadway.
    Appetizers will be $10 to $19, entrees $25 to $39.
    How can he run two restaurants thousands of miles apart? Jaeger says that
    the summer business is slow in New Orleans, while it's busy here.

    Note: SAW is part of the Deja Vu empire.

    Isn't SAW Entertainment in a partnership with Deja Vu to run the clubs? Andrew Jager is also in a partnership with SAW. This is what I was told upon being introduced to Mr. Jager.

    The restaurant, although in the same location where Carol Doda (not Dota) performed, is no longer a strip club and is not being run by Deja Vu.

    Wow. Jaeger's was always one of my fave restaurants in NOLA. Mmmmmmm good

    It would seem his "partnerhship" with SAW is more like that of a lessee/lessor relationship rather than a true business partnership.
