Omg. You have to get the gumbo and half poboy special. I got the oyster poboy and it's amazing. All the locals recommended and I can't agree more.
The Famous Ferdi Special is the best of a sub sandwich, a French dip - every sandwich you’ve ever loved in one. - Jeffrey Saad, United Tastes of America

Amazing fried chicken, often called the best in town. The food and atmosphere are quintessential New Orleans, among the best you’ll find in town. [Eater 38 Member]
When they moved from their original location, I was worried...but I want to tell you - I like the new place better. Bowling + drinking + dancing = GREAT TIME.
A tip from one of our expert reviewers, Gayot: "Savoring the classic luxury of fried, golden brown oysters bathed in melted Brie seems fitting in Clancy's somewhat austere atmosphere." -On TripExpert Read more.
the plates are enormous, split with friends, or get a few smaller items if you are by yourself
One of the best meals I have ever had. Order the alligator cheesecake for an appetizer.. Fried chicken is ridiculous, red fish is amazing as well. Grab a drink at the bar while you wait...
The beignets are larger, fresher and imho tastier than Cafe DuMonde. The garden is much more inviting than being crowded under the tarp at CDM
The oldest continually occupied bar in the U.S., this place was once, according to legend, owned by the pirate Jean Lafitte. The tiny open air bar on Bourbon Street pours them cheap and fast. Read more.
For almost 200 years this bar has been a staple of life in the French Quarter. Visitors can sip their favorite beverages as the sights & sounds of the French Quarter trickle into this comfy tavern.
The French Market was originally a Choctaw trading post. Dating back to 1791, it is the oldest documented farmers’ market in America. -Travel Editor
Plan on getting to the museum at 9 am when it opens. It will take you from 3 to 5 hours to walk through the exhibits. Also get your tickets to Beyond All Boundaries when you get your museum tickets.
If it's just two or three, order the small plates: Boudin, Roasted Oysters, Boucherie, Shrimp & Eggplant Dressing #wtf, Smothered Greens, Pork Cheeks Paneed. Dessert:Butterscotch pudding.
The Pharmacy Museum is one of the hidden gems in this city. They give great examples of the history of general medicine of the modern pharmacy. Don't miss the second floor exhibits!!
Congratulations, you've found one of Esquire's Best Bars in America. Listen to the city's best jazz, blues, and zydeco while sucking down an Abita Amber. Read more.
Get one Sazerac w rye (the popular but later version) & one with cognac (this is the original)--compare. Sunday hours are bar menu til 10pm, drinks to 11:30pm-ish.
One of the best brunches in NOLA and really attentive staff. Try the speciality pancakes and some eggs. Sip on coffee and enjoy the greatness!
GORGEOUS hotel. Incredible rooftop pool & patio. Great customer service. Sign up for Omni Rewards Select Guest BEFORE you stay & get free breakfast delivered to your room in the morning!
Try the Sazerac- the oldest cocktail! And also very very strong (it's basically just whiskey)! Don't forget to do a room tour too!
I only stopped in for a frozen drink to go, but the place is adorable and has a fun energy. Live band in an adorable courtyard makes it a great spot to relax.

This is a must visit spot while you are in New Orleans. The live jazz is A-mazing!!!
Just queue up, place your order quickly (one half muffuletta or one whole, if you're splitting, and we recommend a bag of cajun Zapp's chips), pay the man, and go. They're busy. And rightfully so.
If I had to choose one food to eat for the rest of my life, it would be RFG's BBQ Oysters!
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.
A local institution, this shabbily elegant restaurant and bar with a Spanish-style courtyard is known for its Pimm's Cups and muffuletta sandwiches.
This Central Business District classic may look more like a TGI Friday's than your typical New Orleans oyster bar, but the "Home of the Original Charbroiled Oyster" has earned its claim to fame.
Stop here for the famous paintings of New Orleans' Blue Dog in his natural habitat - whether on the bayou, alongside Louis Armstrong, on the field, or downtown, you never know where you'll find him.
You must try the Rachel. A Ruben is good. A Rachel is great. Stein's always delivers.
Come at 4am and eat your beignets with the local musicians. Pro tip: dont breathe out of your nose whilst beigneting unless you want a powder sugar face.
FOR BEST (FRESHEST) RESULTS: 1. Go inside to avoid the patio line. 2. Order drinks, NO BEIGNETS. 3. Order beignets when drinks arrive. The servers have to wait in line for drinks, but not for food.
