Cajun and Creole Restaurant · City Park · 53 tips and reviews
Adam Gambrel: The over all experience is just that, an experience. The meat selection is amazing. In one night of sharing with a group of friends we had: duck, chicken, beef, goat, pork and venison.
Eater: A meat-centric spot chef Isaac Toups and his wife Amanda. House-cured meat and house-made sausages (plus other non-meat options). Oh, and they have insanely good Doberge cake. [Eater 38 Member]
Margaret Guste: Salad with fried Gouda was delicious and large! The meatballs were in a yummy sauce, and the fried green beans were very good as well. The tri tip entree was a lot of food--plenty to split. Mmmmm.

Sandwich Spot · Lower Garden District · 585 tips and reviews
Lance Lacoff: Cucumber salad, Mac n cheese, any meat options - all done really nicely
Ryan Nixon: Foodie heaven, hip decor. Head cheese and boudin off the charts, but that's the tip of the iceberg. Innovative cocktails
Eater: Cochon Butcher isn't just a fantastic butcher shop and deli hiding behind the famed Cochon - it's home to crazy good small plates, a decent bar, and the best sandwiches in town. [Eater 38 Member]

Thai Restaurant · Uptown · 23 tips and reviews
Keith Scarmuzza: Lunch feast with spicy herbal whole redfish, seafood red curry, curry puff appetizer, and fried bananas with ice cream and honey to top it off!
Andrew Marin: When they say "Thai-hot" as a spiciness level, they aren't kidding. You'll break a sweat.
Lola: If you like super spicy, order your food Thai Hot and then enjoy the searing bliss as the tears come to your eyes.
8. Rock-n-Sake

823 Fulton St, New Orleans, LA
Sushi Restaurant · Lower Garden District · 26 tips and reviews
Sarah: Rock-n-roll, voodoo queen, garlic salmon roll, lint roll, dome sweet dome.
Jessica Talazac: LSU roll is amazzzing...the atmosphere is so fun here!
TJ Anderson: We ordered a second LSU roll it was that good. Spicy crunchy was really good IMO and the Hawaii 5-0 was as good as any place. Atmosphere was good, but I'd still rank little Tokyo over this place.

Gastropub · French Quarter · 152 tips and reviews
Marie La Rue: The cutest American bistro in the French Quarter. Loved their gumbo soup.
Eater: New American, gastropub-style restaurant in the Quarter helmed by Chef Alex Harrell. Widely acclaimed as a very high-end restaurant at a price point that’s high but not terrifying. [Eater 38 Member]
