Which one of these fine dining establishments would you choose over the rest?

I haven't been to Mariza, but I would choose Peche over Cochon just because over the particular style of foods and availabilities particular to coastal Louisiana.
You can get Cochon "style" foods all across the United States. However, there are very few places where you can get fresh seafood.

Would depend on my mood and who I'm with. That being said I think Peche slightly edges out Mariza, though both are fantastic . Cochon, while good, is in third.

I'd lean towards Cochon, but peche is damn good

Let's just say it is great to be alive in this city right now. So many options, so many great places and people.
Can't go wrong at any of them or dozens of other places. Personally, I think Boucherie is a better option than Cochon, more diverse options.

I like Peche last on the list actually.

Yeah, Peche is a completely different style of food. IMO
I find myself craving Mariza style food more often, but Peche is probably a better restaurant. If you're feeling pasta and some heavier fare, give Mariza a shot.
Peche is a top shelf place, and has a diverse enough menu to please most people.
Cochon is last.

What's this Mariza place?

Where? Are you talking about lardcore, or pig focused cooking? Then yes, sort of. But those places dont view it through a cajun viewing glass.
To OP, really depends on what you are looking for
Mariza is going to be regional Italian, local ingredients, and excellent crudos and raw seafood.
Peche is gulf seafood served in all its simple glory; grilled fish, raw fish dressed with salt, lemon, and little else; some excellent small plates built around fish and seafood.
Cochon is the many glories of the pig and other meats; excellent wood fired oyster roasts, and updated takes on traditional Southern and cajun fare.

like all 3, and would say they surpass any minimum standards i would have to recommend a place or eat at myself. from there it would depend on my mood and what type of food i want to eat, not the name on the door as they are widely varying cuisines.

Mainly pig focsed. Doesn't Link take part in a farm/restaurant in north Birmingham, Alabama?

He partners with the guy who owns Jim n Nick's in a farm in "upstate" Alabama where the raise heritage hogs. And I think they just bought a slaughterhouse. There are plans to roll out some more Butchers, both in New Orleans and across the South, hence the need for a pig farm.

In all honesty, I've yet to run across any restaurant bbq across this great and varied nation holds a candle to bbq from a backyard.
