The 14 Hottest New Restaurants in New Orleans, July 2024

"A stylish new lounge and restaurant landed in the Warehouse District at the end of December, with food and drink from a talented set of local tastemakers (Kiah Darion from Bar Marilou and Will Lester from Longway Tavern on drinks, and for food, Indigo “Soul” Martin, who ran pop-up Indigo Soul Cuisine, and Adrian Martinez, former chef de cuisine at Sylvain). Jolie transformed a former World of Beer into an unrecognizable lounge with a sexy, old-world European feel that hosts live music, DJs, and a monthly “Cirque de Jolie” lineup of performers. The food menu is mostly made of shareable plates with a French flair, like escargot, foie gras toast, tempura frog legs, bone marrow, and beef carpaccio, and extravagant cocktails utilize tools like atomizers, eye droppers, and blow torches." - Clair Lorell, Justine Jones
