We arrived to day and wanted a casual local dining experience. This restaurant was recommended by the inn keeper. It was perfect. Food was home made with the right amount of Cajun. Only thing we regret was that the dinner was so good and filling it didnât leave room for desert.

At Jimmy J's Café, we make everything from scratch using the freshest ingredients. It takes a while longer, but we know it makes all the difference. We are one of the French Quarter's best kept secrets. Ask anyone from the Big Easy and they will tell you

Loved this place. Went twice in the short time we were visiting. Great service and exceptional food. Awesome Bloody Mary's as well. A little pricey but way better than other more popular places. Banana Bread French toast was to die for!Wonderful waitress - Deserie!

This is New Orleans, a tourist city full of tourist traps. On the edge of Lafayette Square in the CBD is Herbsaint, an unassuming restaurant serving outrageously good locally inspired dishes with top quality seasonal ingredients and a deft touch that ensures great flavor and texture combinations. A good wine list and well informed and passionate service. Our dog was more than welcome on the patio and enjoyed it too.

Went to the Red Fish Grill on the Saturday before Halloween when all of Bourbon Street seemed to be going crazy. I was able to get service in the bar area immediately and the servers were extremely attentive even with all the commotion going on. Loved the jambalaya and pecan pie.

The former 1910 pharmacy in the neighborhood has amazing history turning our excellent chefs in the last 30 years and it can be experienced.It is so Nola that it does not even need a sign out front. The quality and service was impeccable and would recommend to anyone who wants to enjoy a NOLA dinner experience that is not touristy!
3. Boucherie

Boucherie was recommended by several musicians we know. The location is uptown just off of Carrollton St. The restaurant is in a small house. You feel like you are dining in a friendâs home. Very cozy and casual. The food is off the charts good. Very creative Southern food with an Asian twist. We started with the mussels with collard greens. Simply outstanding! Our entrees and cocktails were excellent as well. We love the bartender- very friendly and engaging. Prices were reasonable. Both my husband and I walked out of Boucherie with big smiles.

The original Brennan's, opened in 1946, recently emerged from an extensive renovation that spared no effort or expense by new co-owners Terry White and Ralph Brennan. Eight glamorous dining rooms, each steeped in New Orleans architecture and ambiance, cel

Our last visit was in 1973 with the Rooster Menu that we took home and framed. We opted for brunch this time and were not disappointed. Eggs Hussard etc were all terrific. The service staff is excellent, "waiters who wait", not intrusive but there if you need anything (unlike another Brennan family venue, Commanders Palace, where the service is downright intrusive). Our 9 AM reservation was promptly seated and the elegance began. Every day should start in such a beautiful setting with such an outstanding meal.
1. Atchafalaya

We decided to stay near our Air BNB, so we walked to Atchafalaya for dinner. The restaurant was busy and very well appointed. We were seated right away, on the second floor, nice but tight room. The tables were very clean with superb preparation. The server was prompt and knowledgeable. We had a punch dujour and a sazerac. Both were well made and delicious. We ordered shrimp and grits and chicken vol -a-vent. The presentation was excellent, the shrimp and grits very tasty but did not care for the whole shrimp. I dont want to work that hard for my food at that cost. The chicken was surprisingly good. We finished with the dark chocolate peanut crepe cake, which was tremendous. All in all a very good meal albeit expensive.
