"This romantic St. Charles Avenue wine bar shimmers with twinkling lights and colorful umbrellas lining an outdoor patio.

"With one of the best beer selections in New Orleans, this beer pub on the St. Charles Avenue streetcar line defines the late night food scene.

"Opened in 1946 (and still channeling 1946), this landmark diner in the Riverbend specializes in omelets, burgers, grits, pecan pie, and the Orange Julius."

"This iconic greasy spoon on Bourbon Street has been keeping the French Quarter well fed since 1939. Open 24/7, it serves burgers cooked under an “American-made hub cap,” biscuits and gravy, omelets, chicken fried steak sandwiches, and other comfort food classics."

"When you stumble out of the Frenchman Street music clubs, feet sore from dancing and belly filled with booze, 13 Monaghan’s entire menu section devoted to loaded tater tots will be there to salve the pain. The rest of the menu includes sandwiches, quick bites like crawfish boudin, and tons of vegan options."
