Where to Savor the Best Pasta in New Orleans

"There may be just a few dishes featuring pasta at this neighborhood favorite from famed chef Nina Compton, but they are phenomenal. Get the butter-kissed spaghetti pomodoro, a fresh take on a comfort classic that keeps regulars coming back weekly; the cavatelli with shrimp and Jamaican Run Down sauce; or the melt-in-your-mouth wagyu beef lasagna with fontina fonduta. The restaurant is in the Rice Mill Lofts building by the tracks, a circa 1892 building that was once home to the largest rice mill in North America." - Beth D'Addono, Clair Lorell
