The fried chicken rivals that at nearby Willie Mae’s, and the fried catfish will be some of the best you’ve ever had. [Eater 38 Member]
Get there early & enjoy your food in a relatively quiet & peaceful bar setting, or get there late, dance your ass off, & feed your soul. Get the patatas bravas & thank us later. [Eater 38 Member]
Best brunch around. 100x classier than any other place you'll find on Bourbon Street. Try everything (literally), it'll take you 2-3 trips to the buffet.
Fried chicken platter with the potato salad all the way! Fried chicken is unlike any other I've ever had sooooooo freakin good!
My favorite dishes were the Cracklin and the duck beignets. Tried about 5 plates and everything was excellently prepared. Try a "manmosa" too as well as the cheese plate! Mmmm will be returning!
as a local, I think this is the best gumbo in the city...but i'm ready to be proved wrong though ;)
The alligator app. is delicious! Pork chops cooked medium rare are to die for.
Highly Recommend. Just off Bourbon St. Probably the only non gimmick bar in the area. Always pretty chill considering the shit show going on outside.
Don't go here. Seriously, turn around and leave. OK so you went in... you idiot. I warned you. Go to Penthouse, you are better than this.
Congratulations, you've found one of Esquire's Best Bars in America. Gloomy. Dark. Perfect. It's like stepping back in time when the Nachez Trace ended here and rafts filled the streets. Daha fazlasını oku.

This hotspot melds traditional and progressive cuisine with trendy drinks and decor complementing its locally-inspired food. The smoked speckled trout salad is a classic Southern dish.
Treme happened here. A New Orleans staple. Creighton Bernette always asked for a Hubig's pie, most likely because they're fresh fried pies in every imaginable flavor.

Must see. Get beignets and a cafe au lait, then use the sugar from the beignets to sweeten it.
The focus here is on the music as much as the food—both are great—making it a quintessential New Orleans experience. [Eater 38 Member]
This locals favorite does not disappoint. Can't decide between shrimp or oyster? Get a half and half, dressed. Delicious!

A "MUST EAT" destination while here. Fried/grilled oysters are unreal. Fried alligator bites. Anything porky or seafoody or beefy is amazing here, as are the libations.
Treme happened here. Sad to see it closed up in the first season, Preservation Hall was built in 1750 and is focused on preserving and protecting New Orleans Jazz.
A little gem way down in the Upper Ninth Ward, Elizabeth's is a great spot for brunch or, really, any meal. [Eater 38 Member]
Super chill place. A classy waffle house. Your server cooks your food. Old time charm in the entire restaurant. Ask for Byron. He's an awesome server. The omelettes are delicious and so are the grits.
Jeremy Davenport plays Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. By far the best Jazz Crooning in Town!
Take a cab here and shoot some AK-47s, Glock 9s, and M-4s during your bachelor party. Bring someone with experience, there are barely any rules here.

Most of the menu is straight-up Creole, among the best in town. You will likely have to wait for a seat, but the Maple Leaf Bar is half a block away, so it’s no big deal. [Eater 38 Member]
New American, gastropub-style restaurant in the Quarter helmed by Chef Alex Harrell. Widely acclaimed as a very high-end restaurant at a price point that’s high but not terrifying. [Eater 38 Member]
Best beignets ever. Served with both a caramel and a chocolate coffee dipping sauce. They're light and fluffy and pull apart wonderfully.
Jewish Coonass, Pain Perdu and Orleans Slammer all very good. Avoid the fried chicken strips and (soggy) waffles.

The greatest Magazine poboy. You have to gave the grilled shrimp, fried green tomatoes, and roumelade poboy. It is a religious experience.
There are some things New Orleans does better than NYC. Pho is definitely one of them. This place is NYC decor with New Orleans taste.

Some of the healthiest food NOLA has to offer. Curious Oyster Co's oyster stew is a must. Amazing Kale salad at Juice NOLA and the vermicelli with ginger tofu at Koreole is delicious.
Snapping turtle soup, oysters revolution style, cold meat platters are excellent. Service is meticulous, atmosphere relaxed and intimate. Leave room for the souffle. Skip entrees if you must.
The cochon de lait is bonified. No filler. Packed to the gills with that sweet, sweet suckling pig.
The 4 beer flight for $10 is great! Awesome way to try so many of the amazing beers NOLA makes.
