And to answer the question, it depends on how big a baller you want to be.
Total baller:
Square Root
White table clothe best of the best:
Gautreau's
August
R'evolution
Hardest reservation in town by far:
shaya
All would be great for a anniversary.

Play your cards right and you can walk into Shaya and sit within 15 minutes.

The answer is Gautreau's

If you can get a table at August, do it!

Had Compere Lapin last Friday. One of the better meals I've had in a long time in Nola, top to bottom. Every dish ordered was excellent and the wine I picked that evening was spectacular (it actually was such an obscure item most people wouldn't know that the owner felt it was necessary he come tell me hello and see who the hell I was to order that
)

What did you order at Compere Lapin that was so obscure, I didn't see anything obscure on the menu,
Or did you mean the wine was obscure

Glad to hear it. I think Compere Lapin has the ability to really sustain it's success. They are just enough of a niche and plenty of creativity to remain interesting. IMO
I'm also curious what "obscure item" you ordered, lilwineman.
ETA: OP- I would probably hit August for an anniversary.

Herbsaint last weekend was outstanding.
Bayona is nice for a quiet anniversary dinner.

The wine was obscure...a Spanish still white wine dominant varietal was Pedro Ximenez with Muscat. Super small production (300 cases or so). Whole cluster fermentation with tannins similar to a red wine, some barrel aging, and a mouthful of awesome. Definitely needed food but could accompany a variety of dishes.
Did 1) oysters, 2) hamachi crudo with cucumber, Serrano, and nasturtium granita, 3) a sugar snap salad with buttermilk "Caesar", asparagus, and white asparagus, 4) dirty rice arancine 5) spinach cavatelli with fontina fondue and 6) duo of beef with English peas and carrots finished with table side grated frozen foie mousse

To be more specific on the white, it was Terroir al Limit terra de Queques 2011 Priorat. Typically I don't see them using those varietals but these guys are genius winemakers. The man behind Sadie Family in South Africa, Eben Sadie, is part of the operation. They are approaching the region with the intent to make wine contrary to the standard, imagining these old slate covered vineyards as more of a Burgundy than full bodied high alcohol prospect.

Can't go wrong with Commanders. Shaya is also delicious and fun but it's impossible to get a reservation
