Ralph's on the Park, an elegant eatery in a charming 1860s house, promises delightful brunches and vibrant views of New Orleans City Park.
"Duck and andouille gumbo is a Réveillon must at Ralph’s on the Park, a convenient stop for anyone checking out the massive light show Celebration in the Oaks at City Park." - Adam H. Callaghan
"For a lovely Thanksgiving Day setting followed by a City Park stroll, Ralph’s on the Park is serving a $75 three course meal from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Expect the likes of turtle soup, smoked sweet potato bisque, crab and spinach salad, fried turkey and more. The handsome City Park restaurant will also offer a kids (under 12) menu for $21." - Beth D'Addono
"Historic City Park lies adjacent to this Brennan family outpost, which sports some stellar views. In true Brennan style, the effusive welcomes come thick and fast as soon as you arrive, and the staff are well trained to explain chef Chip Flanagan’s dishes, as well as the extensive wine list. What could be a run-of-the-mill Creole-French menu in other hands takes some interesting turns in his: Oysters, for example, come in an individual pie or baked with Parmesan. There’s enough here to please even the most jaded French-Creole cuisine aficionados." - Paul Oswell
"Ask for a table by the window to take in views of the gorgeous mossy oaks at City Park across the street from Ralph Brennan's elegant Mid-City restaurant. Ralph’s on the Park sources many ingredients locally and is rooted in modern Creole cuisine with global accents." - Beth D'Addono, Eater Staff
"Ralph’s draws regulars for its sophisticated setting perched next to the picturesque City Park, popular with families and large groups gathering for an elegant meal. The bright and airy dining room with walls covered in old-timey murals gets louder Saturday and Sunday mornings, with options for sparkling bottles with juices as well as some tasty brunch drinks. Expect dishes like salmon toast, crawfish omelet with brie, and steak and eggs." - Beth D'Addono, Clair Lorell
