“A new French Quarter restaurant and bar that already feels timeless.”
Drinks
We enjoy a good drink (or four), especially when made by Holywater’s James Beard Award-winning “Spiritual Adviser” Neal Bodenheimer.
Our cocktail menu riffs on New Orleans classics and includes high-octane throwbacks to our youthful debauchery and unduly forgotten deep cuts from the old French Quarter playbook. Plus, easy-drinking wines, party bubbles, and the coldest beer in town
Food
The menu from our Southern-bred, French Quarter-trained executive chef Alex Harrell, a James Beard Foundation semifinalist, goes low and goes high in just the right measure.
The downstairs oyster bar shucks half-shell perfection with fruits de mer from the Gulf, East, and West Coasts. The upstairs dining room puts modern New Orleans on the plate with small-boat Gulf seafood, Louisiana flavors, French technique, and well-turned service.
“The restaurant is housed in an 1800s maritime chandlery, a three-floor space that gets you in the mood to try out the bevy of oysters from all coasts, caviar, and lobster frites.”
Reservations & Events
We accept a limited number of reservations for dinner and drinks in our upstairs Dining Room. The first-floor Oyster Bar is primarily walk-in. And we love a party too (click on Event Inquiry).
“That building is cursed!”
“The bar evokes the feeling of drinking in New Orleans.”
