"Melissa Martin’s Mosquito Supper Club in the Milan neighborhood honors Louisiana, serving food that’s been passed down through generations in a rustic, eclectic space that seems to nurture conversation. Beyond the atmosphere, the restaurant celebrates Gulf Coast seafood with Cajun dishes like shrimp okra gumbo, oyster soup, stuffed crab, and other elegant versions of the dishes from Martin’s childhood. The prix fixe menu, reservations required, is $135 per person, but an a la carte menu is available at the Mosquito bar, which is open for walk-ins." - Clair Lorell
