Food Scene

With culinary roots that date back to 1924, Atchafalaya is known for its contemporary spin on traditional NOLA cuisine. It reopened after Katrina following a remodel that used salvaged materials from its rich history. With live music and a smart cocktail menu, it’s a neighborhood favorite—and it makes a mean Bloody Mary.

As cool as it gets in New Orleans, Cochon strikes a smart balance with rustic contemporary interiors and a soul food menu of Cajun Southern dishes like fried boudin with pickled peppers and an oyster-and-bacon sandwich.

An Institution. More than 100 years old, and famed for its sprightly teal color and striped awnings, this historic restaurant defined (and continues to define) what “first-class service” means. Dining on Creole- and Louisiana-inspired cuisine with no fewer than three servers at your side, you’ll feel like a queen (or a king) when you’re dining here. Pro tip: Don’t miss the 25-cent three-martini lunch! Business attire is required.

An oasis of romance & cool...Possibly the oldest standing structure in downtown New Orleans, organically restoring the Swoop-Duggins House at 916 Lafayette St. over a 3 year period was no small task. The next step was answering the question, how do we honor this historic space while executing a modern establishment? CellarDoor serves delightfully crafted cocktails, both modern and classic, along with a brilliant yet approachable selection of fine wines and bubbles. Our culinary style can be described as seasonal international-contemporary cuisine and is locally sourced.

Le Bon Temps is as classic as they come when we're talking about the city’s watering holes, with pool tables and a decent sandwich bar. The bar has live music every night, and the city’s beloved brass band The Soul Rebels has a weekly residency that draws locals for a contagiously fun evening. We love the bar’s Bloody Mary, which is packed with produce and served in a plastic cup.
