American | Uptown, New Orleans

We love the Bistro- food and service are always excellent with good use of local foods without using the typical New Orleans or Cajun themes. The wine selections are varied , reasonably priced , and excellent. We especially appreciate the low noise level here- we can actually talk across the table and hear each other! More

Creole / Cajun / Southern | Covington, New Orleans

Took our daughter in from out of town for her birthday. Her flight was late and they were so gracious held our specil table in the bar and made the evening as special as always. The food was exceptional, the service was superior and the atmosphere casual but cozy and upscale for sitting in the bar as opposed to the dining room. They were happy to customize the menu to my dietary needs while keeping the flavors in the dishes prepared. The wine list is excellent and my daughter enjoyed the cocktails as well. It was as usual a lovely evening. Again the portions are large so remember that when ordering. More

Discover New Orleans

French, Spanish and Creole influences evolved New Orleans cuisine into a genre all its own. Combine Gulf coast seafood, a butter-based sauce and Cajun spices, and you’re looking at a classic Nola dish. Take the famed crawfish boil, for instance, which locals advise is best eaten as a family. In the aftermath of hurricane Katrina, the restaurant industry banded together to support their city in the wake of serious devastation. New restaurants began opening their doors, and today you’ll find a wealth of cuisines that span the classics to modern reinventions to everything in between.
