"Ralph’s on the Park is a beauty, an elegant modern Creole restaurant where window views overlook City Park’s majestic stands of live oaks. Local seafood is a staple. If softshell crab is in season, order the tempura version here, with its island flavors of coconut rice and curry sauce. Reserve ahead for brunch, which is always busy. Save time for a pre-or post-meal stroll in the park, right across the street." - Beth D’Addono
