Grab a Bite

If you ask anyone about New Orleans, locals and tourists alike will probably mention the food. There are plenty of restaurant recommendations on the web, but make sure to ask some locals for their favorites when you’re in town. Below are some of the restaurants we’ve enjoyed. 

• St. James Cheese Company: For all your mongering needs

• Ayu Bakehouse: Award-winning bakery a few blocks from the hotel

• Seaworthy: Great spot to grab some oysters

• August: Upscale contemporary-creole restaurant

• Meril: Family-style restaurant from Emeril

• Peche: Live-fire seafood restaurant

• Cochon: Hearty Southern Cajun restaurant

• Cochon Butcher: Cochon’s laidback bar and butcher shop

• Compere Lapin: Caribbean meets France

• Stein’s Market & Deli: Counter-service deli on Magazine

• Mister Mao: A self-described “Tropical Roadhouse”
