"Also a New Orleans mainstay, this restaurant is noted for its Cajun and Creole offerings and is firmly part of the city’s enduring culinary fabric." - Julia Eskins
"A bastion of the Uptown seersucker set, Clancy’s on Annunciation preserves the hallowed halls of tradition with the likes of grilled pompano, sauteed veal liver with crispy onions, and smoked duck with dirty rice. Non-regulars can expect to get the once over, at least until that first martini is shaken and served." - Beth D’Addono
"This Uptown bastion of French-Creole cuisine is well known for its lively bar scene, and for good reason. Clancy’s is the kind of place where everybody knows everybody, so expect a few stares. That said, the bartenders are friendly, the food is traditional and good and the drinks are potent." - Beth D’Addono
"Tucked inside the charming Uptown neighborhood known for Creole cottages and air perfumed with night-blooming jasmine, you’ll find Perlis-clad Uptowners dining on Clancy’s decadent, fried, cold-smoked, crab-topped soft-shells over white tablecloth topped tables as waiters who still wear tuxedos keep the bourbon flowing. It’s as good a homage to the soft shell as there ever was. Reservations are a must." - Stephanie Carter
"What pairs best with a classic martini? A white tablecloth in an equally as classic restaurant, like Clancy’s. The restaurant’s handwritten menu, uniforms, and layout haven’t changed in nearly four decades, but that’s what makes it so reliable and comforting. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it — and no one should ever say otherwise about the lamb chops Webster or a chilled martini." - Adriana Lopez
