Best Restaurants, Must Try Places in Hahnville

"If you’re off to a slower start or you’re in New Orleans for the weekend, Brunch at Commander’s Palace is unmissable. Located in the Garden District among the houses and mansions of the first Americans who settled the city in the early 19th century, the upper floors of the restaurant offers some clues to its life before it was a world-famous, James Beard award-winning eatery. (Reservations highly recommended!)"

"While you’re in the Garden District or shopping on Magazine Street, you have to stop by Commander’s Palace. The place has been around since 1880, and it’s one of the most famous restaurants in New Orleans for a reason. Their famous teal and white striped exterior is what landed them on this list, but definitely check them out for fine Creole dining and their jazz brunch too."

"Brennan’s, a stylish restaurant on Royal Street complete with elegant Old World-inspired dining rooms, presents a refined breakfast menu of Southern fare with Creole flavors. Serving the community for more than 70 years, Brennan’s is an iconic dining establishment and New Orleans institution that celebrates the history and heritage of the city through its cuisine. The innovative Creole menu features classic dishes such as Eggs Sardou, egg yolk carpaccio, Eggs Hussarde, and Rabbit Rushing, and don’t leave without trying a brandy milk punch."

"About Etouffee: Often made with shrimp or crawfish over rice, Etouffee (eh-TOO-fay) is a hit with both Cajun and Creole homes. While Bon Ton Cafe is one of the places servicing the dish the longest we like to order it at Galatoire’s. It may be a little fancy but this is a great place to eat and THE place to be for lunch on Friday."

"This jackets-required grand dame of Bourbon Street open for dine-in Wednesday through Sunday, 11:30 a.m. to 9 p.m., and for weekly changing menu of takeout family meals. Call to order between 9 a.m."

As an avid fisherman, chef Tenney Flynn is meticulous when it comes to choosing the freshest product from his sources, and his entrées change daily to reflect the best catch. Whatever the preparation—wood-grilled, parmesan crusted, blackened—the flavors of the fish shine through."

"G W Fins restaurant is a beautifully appointed fine-dining establishment featuring stunning metal sculptures of underwater depictions. Fishnet curtains, white linens, and fine artwork further create an elegant ambiance. Local owners Gary Wollerman and Chef Tenney Flynn have a reputation for being meticulous and providing high-quality seafood."

"Unfortunately, I didn’t spend nearly enough time here (with the exception of eating at Dat Dog, which was delicious) but I’ve heard great things about the music at The Spotted Cat. It’s the best place to eat and end your second night in New Orleans."

"Marigny: This location of weenie and beer emporium Dat Dog has the best balcony for people watching on Frenchmen, whether it's lunchtime or late night."

Here, you can enjoy the festive vibe of the city’s nightlife and local live music, while enjoying expertly-crafted, Instagram-worthy cocktails, accompanied by Southern-inspired comfort food - all in one package with a spectacular view of New Orleans’ cityscape!"

"Arguably the best rooftop bar in the city, the Monkey Board is on top of the Troubador Hotel, featuring artist Gabe Flores’ bright, graffiti-style artwork and expansive views of the city from the 17th floor.

"After leaving his namesake restaurant (but unable to take the name with him), chef Alon Shaya has brought his beloved contemporary Israeli cuisine back, better than ever, along with a progressive new operation that strongly focuses on employee welfare. His dedication to ingredients, technique and staff is evident. The bright, airy Uptown restaurant provides a warm setting in which to enjoy shareable dishes like Shaya’s grandmother’s lutenitsa, local tomato ezme, harissa roasted chicken and hummus topped with blue crab."

"Over the past year, Saba has upgraded its outdoor space fronting Magazine Street to offer comfortably chic dining digs in any kind of weather through its mix of tented and open-air tables. This airy Uptown corner shines in the spring, as do dishes that show off the best of the season. Pillowy pita and savory spreads (like the popular blue crab hummus) prepare the palate for heartier fare like matzah ball soup with slow cooked duck or latkes with cured salmon and caviar."

"A converted house in the Garden District sheds its past life as a po' boy shop to become Patois, which has white tablecloths and self-described "Louisiana cuisine with a French accent." Aside from elemental takes on a breakfast burrito and burger, chef and owner Aaron Burgau embraces big ideas even at brunch. Shrimp and grits are gussied up by black garlic, preserved lemon, bottarga, and toasted garlic bread crumbs; fried rabbit is paired with a poached egg, buttermilk biscuit, and Italian sausage white gravy; and a generous slab of almond-crusted, citrus meunière-showered Gulf fish is joined by a crisp potato galette and buttery green beans."

"Patois translates to "local accent", which is fitting for a restaurant that blends French culinary traditions with New Orleans flare and ingredients. Founded by Chef Aaron Burgau, the Uptown restaurant is noted for serving dishes like the Mississippi Rabbit and Hanger Steak at reasonable prices relative to the competition. The establishment has recently won awards such as "Best of New Orleans" and "Best Bargains" by revered local media outlets, making it a necessary stop for any traveler to the area looking for a great local dining option."

"This Uptown restaurant dishes out French cuisine with a local spin. Gulf fish almandine, rabbit cannelloni with mushroom béchamel, and did I mention the deviled crab dip with crab butter?. Quit stalling, and make a reservation now."

"Herbsaint first introduced New Orleans to prolific restaurateur Donald Link. Since then, Link has opened several more excellent restaurants — Pêche, Cochon, and Cochon Butcher, and helped build a new generation of New Orleans culinary leaders. The French and Italian Herbsaint has remains one of the most consistently good restaurants in New Orleans, with the bonus of romantic outdoor seating along the downtown portion of the St. Charles streetcar line and now a menu catered to takeout and delivery."

"Year after year, this small, elegant restaurant in the Central Business District serves some of the city's most consistently good food. The vibe is a mix of casual tourists and the buttoned-up post-work crowd, and the food is classic New Orleans fare with Italian and French influences. The small plates like seasonal salads, gumbo, and shrimp and fish ceviche are perfect for happy hour snacks, and don't miss the house-made pasta or the duck leg confit served with a citrus gastrique and dirty rice."

"Restaurateur Donald Link’s flagship restaurant is open for dine-in, takeout, and curbside pickup, Monday to Thursday from 11:30 a.m. to 9:30 p.m., Friday 11:30 a.m. to 10:00 p.m., and Saturday 5:30 to 10 p.m."

"Don’t let the plain Jane sign outside this Gentilly BYOB scare you away. Good Time sushi and hibachi is a cute little neighborhood sushi place with fresh options and good service. The lunch menu is cheap, cheap, and specialty rolls, like the “good time” and “the tiger,” are generous of portion and fresh."

"When I walked into Revelator Coffee and saw all of their unique blends and espresso machines at work, I knew I was in for a treat. Their coffee tastes legit, and you can even buy some coffee grinds to DIY at home. Along with the relaxing music playing, the sounds of their espresso machines were extremely therapeutic while studying."
