New Orleans Restaurant Choices
Going to NO for the first time this weekend! Have reserved the following (unfortunately, couldn't get in to Peristyle on such short notice). Am I making any mistakes?
Friday dinner - Bayona Saturday dinner - Upperline Sunday brunch - Mr. B's Sunday dinner - Galatoire's Thanks for any comments! |
Only did Mr.B's for dinner. It was okay. Did Commander's Palace and Brennan's and both were good. However the star was a little hole in the wall that we heard a great deal about called Ugliches. Not in a good part of town so we took a cab. Its only open for lunch and it had a line by 11:30am. It was that rare kind of meal where you put the food in your mouth and moan its so good. I had fried green tomatoes with shrimp remolaude and it was incredible.
|
I liked Mr B's (especially their gumbo) and really really like NOLA'S (been twice).
|
Your choices are wonderful! The only thing I'd have done differently is sit downstairs at Galatoire's (where they don't take reservations)for a true New Orleans experience.

I had very pleasant meals at Bayona and Upperline. The service at both was extremely friendly. The pecan pie at Upperline was delicious -- highly recommended!
I will also admit to having beignets every day that I was there....still using the treadmill to burn them off. I am soooo glad they do not sell beignets anywhere near me! |
Does anyone have an address for the great Ugliches in New Orleans?

Uglesich closed pre-Katrina. Not reopen to my knowledge although I've heard rumors that it may. It's on Baronne St
