Compère Lapin - noun - "kom-pare la-pan" - 1. anthropomorphic rabbit character who served as the mischievous protagonist in Creole and Caribbean folk tales; 2. Chef Nina Compton's restaurant at the Old No 77 Hotel & Chandlery in the Warehouse Arts District of New Orleans.

Meals aren’t about trends, shock value, or opulence.
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.

We don’t make food for everyone else, we make food for you.

La Petite Grocery

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.

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.

Wonderful dining experience, even on Valentine's Day!
Husband and wife team Bulent & Ozgur (Ozzy) Duman share their Turkish & Greek creations in the hearth of historic Old Mandeville. When you visit, you will find yourself in a chic but casual atmosphere surrounded by black&white photographs of Louisiana's street musicians (work of Bulent Duman) with Greek and Turkish music in the background. At Duman Artisan Kitchen you will experience friendly service, a thoughtful menu complimented by over 20 wines almost all served by the glass. Duman Artisan Kitchen uses Organic / Non GMO products whenever available. You can find a wide variety of small plates and appetizers as well as gyros and seafood antres

The dining experience was superb. The staff worked at breakneck speed to ensure everyone was satisfied with their experience. Our experience started with the hostess at the welcome desk who read our reservation note about allergies. She immediately asked if we wanted to see a food list with ingredients for every dish on the menu. Jason, the General Manager, came by and discussed my wife’s specific dietary needs. He exhibited a knowledge of the menu and the ingredients that surprised us both. He was patient with us and made sure our personal experience was of a fine dining experience. Aiden was our server and he was an excellent resource on most levels and discussed our questions with Jason which involved him in the experience. Everyone we came in contact with was inviting, caring, and working for an excellent customer experience! We will return when we get back to NoLa.
