Where to eat Contemporary food in New Orleans: The Best Restaurants and Bars
Reviews on Contemporary food in New Orleans, Louisiana, United States. With a little bit of this and a little bit of that all mixed together with flair and panache, beautifully vibrant New Orleans has made the most of marks left by whomever was calling the shots during whatever era over the past few centuries. Hardly a hodgepodge, the result of such a distinctive blend of cultures is an enchanting cityscape, a set of unique traditions that continuously delight the world, and a jaunty way of living that must be experienced to be appreciated.

My husband and I had lunch here today. We started out with each a cup of red beans and rice. Yummy. We shared a plate of fried green tomatoes, also yummy. We both had bowls of delicious Gumbo and wonderful bread pudding. So stuffed but so happy.

At Jimmy J's Café, we make everything from scratch using the freshest ingredients. It takes a while longer, but we know it makes all the difference. We are one of the French Quarter's best kept secrets. Ask anyone from the Big Easy and they will tell you

Loved this place. Went twice in the short time we were visiting. Great service and exceptional food. Awesome Bloody Mary's as well. A little pricey but way better than other more popular places. Banana Bread French toast was to die for!Wonderful waitress - Deserie!

This is New Orleans, a tourist city full of tourist traps. On the edge of Lafayette Square in the CBD is Herbsaint, an unassuming restaurant serving outrageously good locally inspired dishes with top quality seasonal ingredients and a deft touch that ensures great flavor and texture combinations. A good wine list and well informed and passionate service. Our dog was more than welcome on the patio and enjoyed it too.

The former 1910 pharmacy in the neighborhood has amazing history turning our excellent chefs in the last 30 years and it can be experienced.It is so Nola that it does not even need a sign out front. The quality and service was impeccable and would recommend to anyone who wants to enjoy a NOLA dinner experience that is not touristy!

Boucherie was recommended by several musicians we know. The location is uptown just off of Carrollton St. The restaurant is in a small house. You feel like you are dining in a friendâs home. Very cozy and casual. The food is off the charts good. Very creative Southern food with an Asian twist. We started with the mussels with collard greens. Simply outstanding! Our entrees and cocktails were excellent as well. We love the bartender- very friendly and engaging. Prices were reasonable. Both my husband and I walked out of Boucherie with big smiles.

We only ate breakfast here. The service was over the top and the food was one of our favorites. However, they are not inexpensive. My wife had the eggs Benedict and said it was one of the best she ever had. If you do not mind the money, I would recommend definitely to spoil yourself and try it.

We had brunch on a day when the computers were down. We didnât have a reservation so we got on the waiting list for the bar or outside. They said 2-2 1/2 hours for the wait. We werenât sure we would stay the whole time, but decided on bloody Maryâs while we waited. They have a dozen or so vodkas and a very fun DYI bar to make it however you like. We were seated before we finished our first drink. We had chicken & biscuits and shrimp & grits. Both were amazingly good. The best part however was the fantastic service that we were given under pressure. They were slammed and the computers were up and down so they were doing hand written tickets and trying to deal with everyone paying while the credit card machines were in and out. The staff was incredibly professional throughout and managed to keep their sense of humor. It is obviously a well run restaurant. I would suggest getting a reservation though.
