It seems as if the posters who have responded are limiting you to the area you have been to previously. I'm not sure that's what you meant. But based upon your stated criteria, off the top of my head, I'd suggest trying the following:

Boucherie - 8115 Jeannette just off Carrollton - need a cab ride and a reservation; but it's one of the best values in town and pretty casual; worth the 15 minute ride

Herbsaint - corner of St. Charles and Girod - good lunch deals (don't let any posters say it's not "authentic"; it is definitely N.O. and So. Louisiana influenced)

Cochon - 930 Tchouptilouas - well prepared "country", "cajun/creole" (in a loose definition)

Mr. B's - corner of Iberville and Royal in the French Quarter; polished creole cuisine

Jacques-imo's - another cab ride and get there very, very early in the evening - like 5:30 or 6; but it's a great "first time" experience and sort of a classic

There are others.

I concluded that place was too busy for me to eat at if I had to get there that early.

I'm sure Chiba loves the overflow business they get from that place.
