"I have never wanted to move into a bar permanently more than Elysian. It is absolutely unreal, with incredible decor from the saffron-colored, gingham-filled parlor to the lime green, plant-covered sunny atrium. Built into an old church rectory, its spacious rooms feel like part of a home, rather than an extravagantly designed bar. While the design is a draw, the drinks are even better. I highly recommend the spritz happy hour. I will never not stop here on a trip to NOLA. -M.C." - CNT Editors
