Italian in New Orleans (update: Maximo's)

Anniversary tomorrow night. Looking for generic dishes (run of the mill stuff for the wife) but also something more different and daring (for me since I will eat anything). At least a decent atmosphere since it is our anniversary. It can be a hole in the wall, but nothing too drab. Any suggestions?

Ristorante da piero (Kenner but it's ecellent)
Both have live opera. Romantic atmospheres. Top notch Italian
Eleven 79. is a good one too.

I enjoy Cafe Giovanni very much. There are some of the standard Italian dishes and others which are described as Creole Italian. I love the apps. I tend to order several of those, rather than an entree, when I go. I have an addiction for the cannelloni app, which is plenty of food for an app. I like Chef Duke's version of the caprese salad and the tomatoes are nice this time of year.
Service has always been excellent and the singers are not intrusive. They had to the good atmosphere. They sing a lot of show tunes. The piano is played when the singers break.
Check the dining guide in the sticky thread above, for reviews.

In addition to the one's mentioned, I love Tommy's. I think it would fit your criteria nicely.

Cafe Giovanni is the place to go.
