"The golden age of luxury steakhouse dining is alive and well at Bon Ton Prime Rib, a revival of a historic New Orleans restaurant on Magazine Street. Bon Ton is not looking to reinvent the classics, necessarily, but rather nail them — dishes like New Orleans barbecue shrimp, charbroiled oysters topped with lump crab, a wedge salad, and classic prime rib cooked rare and served with jus. The atmosphere is special occasion-worthy, down to the massive neon sign that hangs outside (reminiscent of the historic Tujague’s sign) and the bow-tied waiters." - Clair Lorell
