Oceana Grill on Conti



People shite on it...constantly, but their chargrilled oysters were outstanding the last time I went.

I have no idea what the food it like there, but having seen the video on the Gordon Ramsey show, I could not eat there. I couldn't even keep watching the video because it was so nasty. It may be clean as a whistle now, but those visions are stamped into my head.


Degas, you could stop in at Arnaud's Remoulade for some Oysters Arnaud and a few other treats that are the same as in the restaurant, but in a casual setting.

Same with Antoine's Hermes Bar for a poboy or some other treats, plus libations, of course.

I don't see Antoine's Annex mentioned much, but it's convenient for a breakfast croissant. I like the caprese panini a lot. Should be especially good during tomato season.

K-Paul's is a good option and I recommend Emeril's, among some of the other suggestions you've gotten.
