- MMICHAELSan Diego •2 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoWe ate there prior to the 9:30 show. Took almost 45 minutes before we got our drinks. It seems the kitchen tends to get backed up as it’s prepping food for the early show guests and the dining room at same time. But wait was worth it. Food was delicious and we saw Herlin Riley quartet. Amazing!!!More infoSnug Harbor Jazz BistroPrice: Moderate• Creole• The Marigny•4.3
- KKirkNew Orleans / Louisiana •9 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoWe have been eating at The Italian Barrel for 10 years or so and we have always had a great experience. The food is always great by NOLA standards which is saying something and the service has always been efficient and friendly. Saturday night was a birthday celebration and David, our server was great with food recommendations as well as wine. We could not recommend The Italian Barrel strong enough. You will not be disappointed.More infoThe Italian BarrelPrice: Expensive• Italian• French Quarter•4.6

Discover The Marigny
When visiting the French Quarter in New Orleans, take a stroll through the adjacent neighborhood called The Marigny. Under the shade of wide-leafed palm trees, this community drips with local color, music, history and diversity. Shotgun-style cottages sit one after the other, many lovingly restored and painted with bright, Caribbean colors. Frenchman Street is a great place to find music or something to drink, be it a cup of chicory coffee or a daiquiri. There’s also plenty to eat. Whether it’s a hole-in-the-wall dive serving up catfish and oyster po’ boys or a more classic Creole eatery offering specialties like crawfish etouffee or Chicken Clemenceau, you won’t leave The Marigny hungry.
