To us, BABs is a place for friends, or those who will soon be. BABs is a casual energetic place with yummy food, authentic hospitality, great libations and friendly faces.

We cook ingredient driven food where inspiration comes from our personal experiences or one of the many cultures represented in our area, past and present. Our cooking is inspired by small local farms, using ingredients that are seasonal and raised or caught with care.

New Orleans is our home. It’s a place with an amazing sense of community where we’ve created meaningful relationships, and met extraordinary people along the way. We’re excited to continue feeding visitors and the people like us, who call it home.

First time visiting New Orleans with my partner. Lovely restaurant. Our server, Michael, was knowledgeable of the details, handy with recommendations, and an all around solid professional. Kitchen team seemed really locked in, space was clean, the menu is tight, food is focused, presentation is elegant without being overambitious or pretentious. We had: Hungarian white wine (outstanding) A sample of a lightly effervescent basque white (great btg) Some clever fat washed Amaro, solid espresso, and a good espresso martini (my partner's preferred after dinner indulgence) Arancini (caviar is such a good addition, though they stand on their own) Meatballs (well made, clean flavor, succulent) Oysters (fantastic deal, great sourcing) Octopus (bold flavors, super tender) Hazelnut cheese tart (you're missing out if you don't do it) Shrimp cavatelli (easily one of the most dynamic sauces, really intriguing name, great job from Michael being on point with elaboration) Lasagna (solid construction while still feeling light, well presented, delightful smell, big and bold) Olive oil cake (love the salt, the cake is so light and easy, arguably my favorite kind of cake, kudos) I never review anyone, but I felt compelled. Weve been dining around the US for about three and a half years together now, here to relax and have a good time and celebrate our new (yesterday) engagement. This is the kind of place I love going, would love to work at or would seek to emulate in a number of ways if I ever get around to opening anything. Only regret is I forgot to ask for a dinner and dessert menu, we collect and will frame or scrapbook the best ones. Good food is an impermanent memory, its a nice way of appreciating where we've been, celebrating love, life and being happy. You guys are awesome, this place is a delight. Can't thank you enough! Heading to your sister restaurant tomorrow morning, incidentally. We pick well! Full tonight, off to bed happy. Cheers

Meals are about moments, memories and those who surround you at your table.
We believe in the complexity of simplicity, and the power of pure flavors. Our histories, vast and varied, deserve to be memorialized and romanticized by dishes that at once remind us of home and transport us to somewhere new.

Atchafalaya is a true New Orleans neighborhood eatery where the eclectic yet elegant atmosphere is only outshone by the attentive service and delicious local fare. Nestled under the oaks on the edges of the Irish Channel, Magazine Street, and historic Garden districts, this hidden gem is one the best contemporary Creole dining experiences that one can find in the city. Neighbors, locals, and out of towners alike will become regulars after experiencing the brand of hospitality offered by New Orleans’ only five “A” restaurant. If having standards such as a gumbo du jour, blue crab raviolo, or shrimp & grits, a nightly seafood special, or a filet paired with a selection from the world class wine program you will not be disappointed. The introductions of brunch, live music, cocktails, and now an extensive happy hour continue the newest culinary chapter for a storied local haunt, embracing New Orleans’ culinary culture while placing contemporary spin on traditional New Orleans cuisine.

About the restaurant

Come dine in this beautifully restored Uptown restaurant on Magazine Street and enjoy James Beard Award Winning Chef Justin Devillier's contemporary Louisiana Cuisine.

The La Petite Grocery name pays homage to the history of its home, a building that’s stood for more than a century. The original structure was built in the late 1800s and called the Central Tea, Coffee and Butter Depot. In 1908, a fire devastated the space and it was transformed into a full service grocery store. Later it was most notably a fine foods and butcher shop, VonderHaar’s Fine Foods until 1982. When La Petite Grocery opened in March of 2004, they similarly aspired to provide the neighborhood with exotic teas, locally roasted coffee, and fresh produce. By doing this, we hope to provide a dining experience that evokes nostalgia of old New Orleans. Reservations are preferred.

About the restaurant

Café Sbisa, established in 1899 and the third oldest fine-dining establishment in the French Quarter, is proud to re-open under the direction of a new team to once again offer the highest quality French-Creole cuisine in a welcoming, historical setting that both locals and tourists will appreciate. Spearheading the new Café Sbisa are Mr. Craig Napoli, who successfully ran the notable restaurant from 1992 - 2005 when Hurricane Katrina devastated the city, and Chef Alfred Singleton, who met Craig when he started working for him at the former Café Sbisa as a prep cook.

Now, the unique venue will once again open its doors to serve classic local fare like Turtle Soup, Louisiana Blue Crab Cakes and BBQ Shrimp using the freshest, locally-sourced seafood and produce. While many restaurants tout “fresh and local”, Sbisa means it, as the Napoli family owns their own seafood dock and distribution business in Hopedale, Louisiana.

About the restaurant

For 60 years The Rib Room has enjoyed its reputation for outstanding food and service. Patrons have found the massive windows facing Royal Street the perfect backdrop for Crescent City dining. The woody, Old English atmosphere, and high ceiling invite guests to sit back and stay awhile. The softly lit and equally comfortable Rib Room bar offers the ideal setting for sophisticated beverages and extensive wine cellar selections. Diners requiring privacy may choose from the Pipkin, Wine Cellar, or Roundtable rooms, perfect for small gatherings; each discreetly removed from the main dining floor. On the upper level of the Rib Room, we feature a private room for groups of up to 40 guests. Winner of the prestigious Zagat Award, The Rib Room offers classics such as slow-roasted prime rib of beef, aged steaks, and fresh Louisiana seafood.
