Historic New Orleans Restaurants

In the grand legacy of New Orleans dining, several old-line restaurants stand as historic landmarks in the city's culinary heritage. Their dining rooms and menus tell the story of New Orleans' unique Creole cuisine, and the lineage of chefs and families who run these New Orleans restaurants are as much a part of the colorful history of the city as Mardi Gras royalty, jazz legends and corrupt politicians. Some are more than 100-years-old. Some are elegant. Some are rough around the edges but still maintain their charm. However, they all are steadfast in serving and preserving classic New Orleans cuisine.
