I will be in NO briefly for work and have time for lunch. Hotel is by the superdome. Anything in that area that is a must try? I haven't been to NO in years.

Slim pickins in that area and a lot of places are closed Monday. If you can Uber, Central City BBQ is really good. Juans Flying Burrito is decent and a good walk. Willa Jean is the trendy darling of tourists but I find it just meh. It's fine. Poke Loa is good for a quick lunch.

There are also usually some decent food trucks in the area.

Take a 3 minute Uber to Peche and sit at the raw bar.

I would suggest Besame but they don't open until 2 on Mondays. The usuals have already been mentioned.

Regulars in that area - Josephine Estelle, Peche, Luke. If you can slum it with us folks, I love Corporation bar for a cold beer and jambalaya. Could always walk over to Galatoire if you have a few extra.

Check the hours on any of these, do it by phone. Google maps is a bit off these days.

Peche or Cochon Butcher are great and walkable (a little under a mile).

Turkey and the Wolf is only about a 5min Uber too.

All solid lunch choices.
