Locally owned and dating back to the 1940s. The char-grilled oysters are my favourite here, and there are plenty of local dishes. Reasonable prices, very casual and in the heart of the FQ.

Casual feel, but stylish menu and interesting modern cuisine combined with traditional New Orleans dishes. A great street to enjoy with plenty of choices of eateries and bars - check out Hi-Hat for dessert after dinner! Less touristy than FQ.
