Hopefully in a more accessible location for those who do not work in the CBD.

Whoa. I read this wrong and thought Le Bon Temps on Magazine, the bar, was closing. I had a small heart attack.

I have not been in years, but the Bon Ton was always one of the consistently excellent restaurants in N.O.. They made the definitive etouffe and incredible bread pudding. It was always a great place to take visitors for a true N.O. experience.

Honestly when I first read the title, I thought the bar too.

As I wrote in response to another thread, this makes me 
Knew the family when growing up eons ago in New Orleans. Nicest people and enjoyed going there with my dad for lunch when I used to visit him at work.
Disappointed I won't be able to make it back home before they shut it down.

Wonder if they are willing to share recipes?

I suspect they were sold along with the business and the building. Whether the new owner serves them, who knows.
I'm completely heartbroken about this.

Damn. I used to work across the street. Had many, many lunches there. Took many customers there for dinner. The pan broiled soft shell crabs and oysters were my favorites. Sad day indeed.

Very glad I was able to grab lunch there last year. I'd weigh 300 lbs if I worked within walking distance of that place.

Never had a bad meal or bad service there. Softshell Crab Alvin was great.

I've never been and managed to get a table tonight. Besides the crab au gratin, what should I get?

Classic spot, albeit one that really could have used a refresh.

Crawfish bisque. Etouffee is good, too, but I have hard time not getting the au gratin. Rum Ramsey-I lament that I never ordered it. I know that many people really like that drink.

Cup of turtle soup. Soft shell crab alvin(fried crab, lump crab meat, lemon butter sauce). Pecan crunch ice cream.
