Fodor's Expert Review Bellocq
Editor's Note: This location is no longer in operation.
Pre-Prohibition drinks are all the rage, but this Lee Circle lounge goes deeper into the past with a menu focused on the cobbler, a popular 19th-century refresher of apéritif wine mixed with crushed ice and fresh fruit. Attached to the supercontemporary Hotel Modern, Bellocq's louche atmosphere captures the faded grace of a bordello in Storyville, New Orleans's once-legal red-light district.
