Food Food Food and More Food

Does anyone know the best places to eat. Ritzy and not, does not matter too me. I would actually like to visit a nice restaurant offering a three course meal or something. Any IDEAS are welcomed. Thanks a bunch. Also can someone describe the best thing they have ever eaten in NOLA.

I%26#39;d definitely do a search of this forum, since many of your questions have been asked, and there is a lot of good advice on here.





For a traditional New Orleans dinner, I would go with Commander%26#39;s Palace, Arnaud%26#39;s or Galatoire%26#39;s. For a more contemporary New Orleans dinner, I%26#39;d go with Stella!, Restaurant August, Herbsaint or Cuvee.

my favorite New Orleans staple?



Beignets. I love them hot and fresh with a chaser of Iced Cafe Au lait from Cafe Du Monde.





Nothing like sitting outside at the French Quarter, listening to whatever band is playing and soaking up everything.





love. it.







also, I%26#39;m a big lover of %26#39;Coops%26#39; on Decatur. Everyone on here cheers the combination plate and the fried chicken. Unfortunately, my status as a vegetarian means I%26#39;m not eating those. However, if anyone is curious, they make the BEST veggie burger po%26#39;boy and green goddess dressing (LOL).

Coops is one of the best dive bars in Nola, with great fried chicken and rabbit jambalaya.



Central Grocery for Muffaletas, Casamentos and Parkway Bakery and Tavern for oysters and po boys, Mr B%26#39;s for amazing barbeque shrimp, Jacoe-Imo%26#39;s for great food and fun atmosphere, Bon-Ton for a more formal atmosphere and spectacular creole....and the list just keeps going on. Avoid all restaurants on Bourbon St. The food is mediocre at best and overpriced.




Bourbon St exceptions: Galatoire%26#39;s, Red Fish Grill (double chocolate bread pudding is AMAZING!), Clover Grill!




Another vote for The Clover Grill. If you like good, inexpensive food 24 hours a day served with a little attitude then this is the place. I go there on every trip. Don%26#39;t forget the free condoms in the jar by the door when you leave.




I really liked the Pelican Club (312 Exchange Pl.)It was pretty, the service was attentive, all the food was really tasty - especially the Seafood Fricasse.




yes, I love Clover Grill as well. Nothing like a big pile of tater tots to soak up all the %26#39;fun%26#39;

Cuvee has a nice prix fixe, 3 course lunch on Wednesdays and Thursdays for $24. It%26#39;s a good way to try a really nice restaurant without spending a lot of money!




In no particular order and only a partial list...Lilette, Cochon, Upperline, Brigtsen%26#39;s, Herbsaint, Galatoire%26#39;s, Luke, Johnny%26#39;s Po-Boys, Domilise%26#39;s Po-Boys, Dunbar%26#39;s (in the Loyola U. Law Center), Camellia Grill, Port O%26#39;Call, August, Jacques%26#39;Imos, Clancy%26#39;s
