Seafood restaurant · Central Business District

"New Orleans can never have too many oyster bars, which is why Maria’s is a welcome addition to the Warehouse District. The team behind nearby tapas restaurant Plates, chef Farrell Harrison and general manager Brian Weisnicht, are now serving a seafood-centric, Caribbean-tinged menu of shareable plates: raw, fried, and roasted oysters; crudo, ceviche, and raw bar platters; and comfort food like gumbo, an oxtail hand pie, and pork cheeks. Cocktails like the Down the Bayou, a crab boil-spiced Hurricane, make for a unique cocktail menu." - Clair Lorell
