Which do you think would be the better option to take a couple from out of town to dinner that Friday of the Ole Miss game: Mansur's or Galatoire's Bistro? I'm open to other nice dinner suggestions as well...Juban's doesn't have anything at a reasonable hour. I'm trying to think of Creole or Cajun restaurants.

I prefer Galatoires to Mansurs but that is just a personal preference. I'm a big Jubans fan but if it's out.

Louisiana Langniappe is a nice option as is Beausoleil.

I'm trying to talk my friends into going to the 13th gate escape room friday night before the USM game.

I think I looked at Ruffino's for friday before ole miss but the times were too early or late

I like French Market Bistro better than Mansur's (same owner). Louisiana Lagniappe is great seafood, but they don't take reservations. I 2nd the Beausoleil rec.

Has Mansur's quality gone down? Haven't eaten there since I moved away in 2008.

Had a great meal there a few months ago. We got the charbroiled oysters, cedar plank-roasted redfish, and sensation salad, and duck mansur. Everything was fantastic.

I prefer Galatoire's overall for a more Louisiana type restaurant. I love Mansur's chargrilled oysters and the visiting fish dishes are usually good, but those are about all I order there. Nothing else on the menu appeals to me as much as most things on Galatoire's menu. If the evening is nice, you could sit outside on the patio.

Best seafood restaurant in town.

And judging by how early people arrive at their restaurant upon opening, they will never need to take reservations.

I prefer Mansur's. Great food and it's not loud in there, which I really enjoy. #getoffmylawn

Thanks everybody! I decided on beausoleil and made a res today. They still had some normal res times available surprisingly.
