9 Iconic Greasy Spoons for New Orleans-Style Diner Fare

"A visit to Russell’s, Lakeview’s diner institution, isn’t complete without a warm hello to Al Williams (if he’s in) and one of his made-to-order bloody marys — he’s been a fixture here since 1986, a year after Russell Cuoco opened the restaurant. Try Williams’s favorite, the chicken and waffles, or one of the restaurant’s other staples, the Egg Saints #33 with a grilled biscuit, alligator sausage, grilled tomatoes, poached eggs, and homemade country gravy. Be sure to save room for a shake or the housemade pies, particularly the lemon ice box or apple, or go with a nectar soda with an ice cream floater, a sweet twist on the most classic of sno-ball flavors." - Clair Lorell, Eater Staff
