Try the Cajun surf & turf - blackened drum and a small beef filet with debris sauce. Ask for it because It's not on the menu. So good!
The drum and beef combo is amazing. Need to ask for it, as it’s not in the menu
This is still one of my favorite restaurants in New Orleans. They have some fine dishes, including an excellent gumbo, turtle soup and the tastiest frog legs I've ever had.
both the vegan and vegetarian gumbo are fantastic! vegan gumbo is not on the menu so be sure to ask for it.
Get the Fresh Fish St. Peter - it is not on the menu, but it is fantastic! Also the best Shrimp Creole in town. This is the place to come for authentic recipes.
Pretty much everything was great at this place. Gumbo, alligator sausage, jambalaya, all amazing!
I would close my eyes and pick anything off the menu, these were some of the best meals I ever had
Hidden gem (locals know of this place, though). A nice change of pace from the traditional Nola-style gumbo and seafood.
An untouristy spot in the French Quarter, this West African cafe prepares food with bold flavors and moderate prices. Ginger fans, don't miss the gingero drink, a spicy relative of ginger beer.
I swear to whatever it is you believe in: order as much off the menu as you can afford because it was so god damned good. The Wagyu? 😘👌
I came with family over Christmas. Really good food (crawfish beignets and half chicken were favorites), and excellent service. Surprisingly good value for such a nice dinner.
Sazerac's are the best in the city!
Start with the biscuits & lobster dumplings. When making your reservation go Weird & order the secret item for the table to share. Business dress attire is required.
A great local place. Beautiful interior and fantastic food. Sea scallops with mushroom risotto is ridiculously good.
The warm biscuits & butter are incredible....unless you hate America and carbs.
Get the Cortado then sweet talk the owner into making another off menu Cortado with mole bitters. Perfection.
Their cortado cubano is so nicely balanced in flavor and sweetness. A perfect drink for your afternoon caffeine fix.
This place is the tits.
If you're a vegetarian, just ask the chef to prepare something off menu. You will NOT be dissapointed!
Everything is delicious yet interesting, Yellow Tuna Cones (Pineapple ceviche & basil avocado ice cream ) will brighten your eyes!
Try the high-class Hurricane
They have an amazing grilled cheese sandwich here.. Just ask! Not on the menu!
The Cajun omlette is fantastic! Also, try the fried green beans. Portion sizes are larger than other places I've been so far.
Every time I'm here, I have the strangest feeling like I've been here before. Probably because it's where I got my start back when it was called "Clyde's Comedy Corner," but still, it's very strange.
If u want something off the menu, just ask, if they've got the ingredients they'll make it
Cajun trio: crawfish étouffée, fried green tomatoes and jambalaya. The bomb! The food was great but the service could've been better. We'd definitely come back!
Kiki is the best waitress ever. I just love her!!! Ask for her plus the salmon Rockefeller is awesome.
If Smokey is there, he makes a BOMB chaipuccino (on request, not on the menu).
The almond croissant was great! Warmed just enough. Crunchy on the outside with tons of flaky layers. Decaf iced was perfect.
Best coffee in town. - Preston, Real World: New Orleans
The Dirty Banana is off the menu, but they will make it if you are a persistent and a good tipper.
The Snoball shop inside the French Market is great. Wonderful service and great flavors. Try the Egg Cream with condensed milk!
The French Market was originally a Choctaw trading post. Dating back to 1791, it is the oldest documented farmers’ market in America. -Travel Editor
Go during off hours so you can get a seat at the revolving bar. Ask for the aviation (not on the menu).
The famous Carousel Bar. Get a classic cocktail like an Old Fashioned, Sazerac or Vieux Carre and sit at the rotating bar. The crawfish and crab beignet appetizer is delicious.
One of New Orleans's most famous watering holes, this circus-themed piano bar has a carousel on its revolving bar.
Order the "Hood Special". It's not on the menu, but they know what it is when you order it!
$5.25 pecan pancake stack is awesome and great price. Super good omelettes too!
Burgers are dee-lish👌!! Ask for Chris
They have a vegan cajun stew off the menu.
Crabcakes & BBQ shrimp combo on the appetizer menu is a great customized main dish. Ask for Jaycee! Best service in town compliments the food
The blackened gator bites are divine! The perfect blend of chewy alligator meat, spice & flavor.
They do a surf n turf of roast beef topped with fried shrimp not on the menu.
Shrimp Poboys are awesome, Gumbo is Delish, but the service is what makes this place outstanding!
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.
Lovingly made in NYC, CHI, SEA & LA
