Come dine in this beautifully restored Uptown restaurant on Magazine Street and enjoy James Beard Award Winning Chef Justin Devillier's contemporary Louisiana Cuisine.The La Petite Grocery name pays homage to the history of its home, a building that’s stood for more than a century. The original structure was built in the late 1800s and called the Central Tea, Coffee and Butter Depot. In 1908, a fire devastated the space and it was transformed into a full service grocery store. Later it was most notably a fine foods and butcher shop, VonderHaar’s Fine Foods until 1982. When La Petite Grocery opened in March of 2004, they similarly aspired to provide the neighborhood with exotic teas, locally roasted coffee, and fresh produce. By doing this, we hope to provide a dining experience that evokes nostalgia of old New Orleans. Reservations are preferred.

    Very nice setup for two or many to dine. Make reservation as is very popular. Wait staff extremely active and very friendly to all giving best service and quality of dining. Duck gumbo very good as were fish dinner. The pork chop good but a bit small for the price. Nice dessert given to us as a recognition of our celebration of our anniversary.

    Love this restaurant! Food was outstanding and the service was great! Started with the crab beignets, and the ricotta dumplings. They said they were their signature appetizers and they did not disappoint! For our mains we got the shellfish stew, the turtle bolognese, the burger and the pan roasted chicken breast. All entree were delicious! If you’re heading to New Orleans, I highly recommend putting this restaurant on your list!

    I’ve submitted several reviews, as I eat here a good bit. It’s silly excellent, still my favorite. There’s a wide variety of Gulf oysters from which to choose. The seafood gumbo is my favorite in the city, really rich & full of protein. I had the Speckled Trout Amandine, which I had not tried before, & it was quite good. In short, it’s always a great meal at Luke, & I’ll keep coming back until they give me a reason not to.
