Where Should I Eat while I'm in New Orleans French Quarter?
Posted by TenTex on 2/23 at 7:49 am
I'm having lunch at Commanders Palace when I arrive. Where should I have dinner and lunch the next day? Seafood of course!

Mothers? Galatoire's? Mulate's? Broussard's? Suggestions?

Johnny's PoBoys and Maximo's Italian Grill.

While at Commander's make sure you get the Turtle Soup.

If you really mean the Quarter per se . . .

Lunch . . . Stanley

Dinner . . . Galtoire's or Bayona (if you're gay, you may wish to try Stella! . . . kidding ; Stella! is good, but I like to mess with its avid supporters)

Off top of my head ...

Central Grocery, Mr. B's Bistro, Stanley (brunch), Johnny's Poboys and Jacques-Imos (a little off the beaten path).

It's okay, but why in the world would someone here for a short visit make a special effort to eat there (admittedly, I haven't been inside the place for years)?

If the weather is good, consider a stroll through Central Grocery on Decatur, grab a Muff, and go get a bench on the levee and watch the boats in the river.

I like Coop's and at least it is in the FQ unlike some places mentioned above.

Everybody should experience Galatoire's at least once.

Muriel's

ETA: I'm just getting started on exploring restaurants in N.O., so I haven't been to too many, but Muriel's was top notch when we were there this summer.

Not worth a trip IMO unless you want to check out the maple leaf too.

BREAKFAST - croissant d'or

Get the Almond Croissant. Trust me.

Ask for a table in the Garden Room at CP overlooking the courtyard. Go to Galatoire's for lunch. Mr. B's and Antoine's have lunch specials. Napoleon House is fun. Bon Ton has outstanding creole food. It's not open on weekends. Red Gravy has great food. Enjoy your visit.

I'd suggest Remoulade's for some oysters and one of their cajun (I don't know what they call it) taster platters.

Molly's at the Market for a bar down on Decatur. Go there.

Johnny's for a dressed shrimp poboy. Those things are golden to have a half poboy left over for the 3:30 push onto dinner.

At some point you need to try Stanley's Stanley, which is eggs benedict with fried oysters. fricking good.

I'd go eat at Rio Mar as well, even though it's a bit out of the 1/4. Just an awesome place for seafood, out of Louisiana norm but just so well done it's remarkable.

I'd keep an open mind too, wander into Sylvain or MiLa or just into a place that looks inviting and is right there in front of you.

Broussard's is pricey but very good.

Nothing better than cocktails at Napoleon House, my favorite bar in the entire world.
