• Burns Court Café: Always a hit for breakfast and lunch, the relatively new French Quarter Wine Bar is offering great live Jazz 3-4 evenings per week. It is not uncommon for music nights to be completely booked. Reservations are an option and suggested with some evenings being booked 2-3 weeks out! Review of Burns Court Cafe
• Indigenous: With an ever evolving menu of locally sourced ingredients, Chef Steve Phelps continues to hone his craft. Reservations are a must for this always busy spot. Review of Indigenous
• Marcello’s Ristorante: Now open 7 days per week through season, this small, cozy Italian gem is always busy. Reservations are a must! Review of Marcello’s
• Owen’s Fish Camp: A continuous crowd favorite for a reasonably priced seafood dining experience. Review of Owen’s Fish Camp

• Sol’s NYC Delicatessen: Although the opening of this new Deli in the former Applebee’s on upper Main Street is just happening, the pre-opening buzz, and the highly anticipated demand will instantly make Sol’s a hot spot right next to the Regal Hollywood 20. Review coming soon.
