The 14 Hottest New Restaurants in New Orleans, November 2024
"A Metairie favorite for margaritas and Mexican has expanded to New Orleans, opening in early May downtown. The new Tacos del Cartel brings splashy to a whole new level, with trippy, extravagant interiors dripping with art, sculptures, textures, and color; a true feast for the senses. The restaurant specializes in brunch and has an incredible selection of specialty tacos (think octopus, soft shell crab, duck carnitas, bone marrow, and oyster mushroom, but the cold dishes are another area of excellence — black aguachile, green ceviche, and tuna tostadas are perfect for summer." - Clair Lorell
