American Restaurant · Central City - Garden · 21 tips and reviews
Christin "X1" L: Excellent food for an excellent cause. The renovations are great - lots of room, bright light, even a courtyard.
Eater: Even if it wasn’t a successful job training program for at-risk kids, the food here would still be incredibly delicious, old-school New Orleans soul food. [Eater 38 Member]
Laura White: Get the mac and cheese. And if you're here, be sure to ask what Cafe Reconcile is all about. It's much more than good food.

David Schwartz: Great menu, great service and an all-around great find. They revitalized this former legendary New Orleans Favorite. You must try the Gulf Fish Almandine and get some Raw Oysters while you are at it.
Eater: Chef Drew Lockett cooks impressive rustic bistro fare, and a wealth of raw bar options that dazzle. Also, they're open until midnight, Wednesday-Saturday.
Abigail Gullo: Steve is an amazing bartender. I have yet to even see the dining room, but both my experiences at the bar have been divine. My rabbit was delicious as was the savory sage pain perdu.

Ale: Great service; good brunch! Make sure you get a table inside if you want to listen to the live band
Thrillist: Atchafalaya is an underlooked brunch gem. Be on the lookout for the duck hash, AND the “Eggs Treme”; a Benedict variation featuring a boudin cake, poached eggs, popcorn crawfish, and hollandaise. Read more.
Genny B: Brunch. Bloody Mary Bar. All you need to know.

French Restaurant · Central Business District · 5 tips and reviews
Amanda Meeks: Appetizers are on the smaller side, but entrees are plenty big! And not to mention delicious. Got fried oyster stuffed filet mignon and my taste buds were quite satisfied.
Nicole Eparvier: Had the duck Julia. It was very good. All together the place was much too fancy for my tastes. Also, not many options for those who don't like seafood.
Adam Smith: Very good! Had the Gulf Fish plate. Everything was tasty. They made the perfect Sazerac, too! The place is relatively new. Go! Before everyone finds out about it and you have to wait.
