This is one of the best restaurants in New Orleans and it's more moderately priced than some of the other find dining options. They also have happy hour from 5-6 with specials on NOLA classics, like boudin balls and sazeracs.

A more casual cousin to Boucherie, this place has fresh fruit daiquiris, wings, poboys, and frequently has live music outside. The cochon de lait poboy is a frequent award winner locally!

A new spot by the owners of the populat Marjie's Grill in mid-city, Seafood Sally's is great for cocktails, oysters, and whatever other seafood they may have gotten their hands on that week.

Alligator cheesecake! I suggest getting there when they open around 5pm or you'll wait a long time. If you do end up waiting, The Maple Leaf is next door and a great spot for a beer while you wait.

Bars

The Maple Leaf is a classic New Orleans dive bar that used to host the grammy-award winning Rebirth Brass Band every Tuesday night (before covid). It's next door to Jacque-Imo's, which is a classic New Orleans restaurant. Have the alligator cheesecake!

Sightseeing

This plantation tour, unlike some of the others, is focused on the history of slavery and the slaves who lived there (rather than the plantation owners). It is a very unique historical experience and is highly recommended!
