"New-school New Orleans cuisine has revived a homey cottage in the Riverbend that was formerly home to Mexican restaurant La Mansion. Courtesy of Blake Cressey, the chef behind Tasty Treat food truck and restaurant, Blake’s Place offers a casual but full-service setting for New Orleans staples and Creole Italian specialties. It’s chic, pretty, and welcoming, and the menu is crowd-pleasingly familiar, full of comfort food and shareable items." - Clair Lorell, Justine Jones, Eater Staff
