Mr. B's in the Quarter is a short walk for you and would be good for lunch or dinner. Gumbo ya ya and BBQ shrimp would be good for them to try. Good fried oyster app also. Can wear jeans or slacks.

Make reservations.

Lunch at Casamento's on Magazine would be a great idea since you have a car. Parking is troublesome, but workable. You might have to walk a bit. Raw, chargrilled and fried oysters, fried softshell crab, shrimp, fish, old famous New Orleans restaurant.

There's a streetcar on Canal St. now. You can catch right by your hotel if that interests y'all. Take it to Mandina's or Katie's for casual eats. Both have websites so you can take a look. Not 5 star food, but good representations of Nola seafood and if you're drinking, the streetcar is the way to go.

Friday dinner at August. Fine dining, white table clothe, possibly the best in the city. A coat is not required, but recommended. Alternative: Herbsaint.

Saturday Lunch at Casamento's on Magazine since you want seafood.

Saturday Dinner at Cochon.

Sunday Brunch at Patois or Atchafalaya.

That would be a really nice weekend.

Alternative places:

PoBoy: Parkway Bakery and Tavern in Midcity.

Neighborhood place: Katie's.

High End but not super formal:

Coquette, Atchafalaya, Clancy's.

Coquette and Atchafalaya are my two favorite restaurants in the city. I would take an out of towner to Atchafalaya.

EDIT: I would get reservations at all of these places except for Casamento's, Katie's and Parkway as far in advance as possible.
