Adolfo's


Creole Style
611, Frenchmen St.
New Orleans, LA 70116
United States
+1 504 948 3800
Due to the damage caused by Hurricane Katrina, the following description may no longer be accurate. Please consider this when making your travel plans.

Once you discover this tiny classic restaurant located above the Apple Barrel, you will become a regular customer. Seating only 36 customers at a time, there is usually a wait for a table but the cuisine here is well worth it! Adolfo's serves Italian classics with a "southern Creole" twist. You will find lots of seafood dishes on the menu and the Chef's unique "design your own" entrée from anything in the kitchen. Adolfo's keeps a good selection of classic Italian wines on hand for only $4.00 a glass. This is a great place for a delicious meal or romantic evening. –Karen Gros

Due to the damage caused by Hurricane Katrina, the following description may no longer be accurate. Please consider this when making your travel plans.

You haven't got the real taste of French Quarter if you have not been to Alpine Bistro, located in one of the oldest buildings. This cool and quaint joint serves cajun and creole dishes like never before. The beautiful water-fountain in the huge courtyard is perfect for a cozy twosome. Clamor for the barbecue shrimp with salad and French bread, gator sausage, broiled crawfish and gumbo! Chatty waiters entertain you as you enjoy poached eggs atop an English muffin, topped with Hollandaise with creamed spinach. Don't pass up on this one!

Due to the damage caused by Hurricane Katrina, the following description may no longer be accurate. Please consider this when making your travel plans.

Located in the heart of the French Quarter inside the Princess of Monaco Carriage House & Courtyard, Cafe Amelie offers a welcome refuge from the busy streets. As the former home of Alice Heine, the first American Princess of Monaco, the courtyard and carriage house provide an exquisite, romantic dining atmosphere. The kitchen uses only fresh, local ingredients for its small, but mighty menu which captures the flavor of the city with its southern Creole and Cajun cuisine. Try the New Orleans Pan Fried Crab Cakes with citrus drizzle or the Creole Lamb Chops. Dinner can get pricey, but you get what you pay for in service and ambiance. Patrons can also enjoy live music on Friday and Saturday evenings.

The perfect spot for an intimate, romantic dinner, this restaurant won the top French bistro in New Orleans honors from Zagat's survey. Dine while being serenaded by the lilting sounds of the French accordionist. Angled windows allow patrons to gaze at the stars while they dine surrounded by a collaboration of 19th century and modern appointments. The charm attracts tourists and keeps the locals coming back. Among the menus many offerings are crepes wrapped around a variety of fillings, including crawfish. Or, if you prefer, enjoy a big, healthy salad with flaky, grilled fish.

Due to the damage caused by Hurricane Katrina, the following description may no longer be accurate. Please consider this when making your travel plans.

Cuvee is definitely the place to enjoy a romantic dinner or host a stylish shindig. The wait staff are effervescent and efficient and the staid interiors have interesting decorations. Food tends to sound familiar but Grilled Filet Mignon, Rosemary Butter Roasted Chicken and Seared Sea Scallops are out of the ordinary. The Creme Brulee and Cherry Rice Pudding are also worth a shot. Wines from Austrailia, Europe and the Americas are neatly stacked. Pull out a glass to sip. Check for seasonal events that take place from time to time.

Due to the damage caused by Hurricane Katrina, the following description may no longer be accurate. Please consider this when making your travel plans.

Eleven 79 is off the beaten path but well worth the search. Once inside you will find authentic Italian dinners and a wonderful wine selection. The bar is always crowded with those waiting for a much sought after table; reservations are a must. This place is crowded but if you have La Bocca della Verità it will tell you it's worth the wait!

Due to the damage caused by Hurricane Katrina, the following description may no longer be accurate. Please consider this when making your travel plans.

An almost colonial façade yields to elegant dining rooms with a rather romantic ambiance. Part of the huge Hotel Provincial, the restaurant has undergone several facelifts to emerge a chic dining spot. Acclaimed Chef Scott Boswell digs into his Louisiana roots to come up with tantalizing recipes that he brushes up with his creative streak. A recommended meal would start with sashimi or a crab'n'shark soup, a leafy salad and a glass of sparkles from the extensive wine list. For mains, try the Duck Five Ways; it is bound to leave you quite sated. Or, go for the delicious lobster curry and Tempura Scallions for a lighter meal. The Bolivia 68 Chocolate Mousse with Chocolate Sauces and Blueberry Shooter make a scrumptious dessert. Comfort, cleanliness and excellent service earn the restaurant its much deserved praise.
