Consistently delicious dinner, very sexy little bar and craft cocktails and a courtyard. Brunch is new. Surprisingly, the best burger ever. Mariza ties with Mariza for date night.

Funky place with super-fresh breakfast and lunch, as well as fresh juices. One of the first of Bywater's "renaissance restaurants". Funky little courtyard to the side. No table service.

Urbane dinner + sexy but relaxed bar. The black linguini with shrimp and crab is not to be missed. Also, I order burrata on toast twice. At the same sitting. Romantic and energetic.

What can I say - my home away from home. You'll find me working here almost every day. Iced Mocha, Espresso Milk Shake, and Ice Cream in a sleek, modern, white, yet somehow still New Orleans-y spot.

Delish breakfast and lunch in an old corner store. Best baked goods in the city - I LOVE the blueberry tart. Sit outside in good weather, and say hi to Maître D', the cat who hangs out at the door.

Total must. You will go and you will just 'get it'. Random backyard behind wine shop with charming live music, twinkle lights, big fun crowds, gourmet food for pennies on the dollar. One word: Sunset.

Fried deliciousness, raw oysters (months with an 'R' only), and frosty big beer mugs. It's pretty much 1967 in there - and that's a good thing. Only order the half-size of onion rings. Please.
