Where I Go Out

The Company Burger

$$, Burgers, Outdoor Seating, Full Bar, Happy Hour, Freret

"This burger only comes one way, and they only make it one way for good reason (because it is great that way!). Two thin patties griddled with American cheese and grilled onions come on a housemade bun with pickles."

$$, Reservations, Vietnamese, Asian,

"These Korean-style beef short ribs have tons of fish sauce and garlic in the marinade, and with all of the char from quick grilling, the flavors make an unbeatable combination."

Dooky Chase Restaurant

$$, Reservations, Full Bar, Southern / Soul, Bar, Treme Lafitte

"Deeply rooted in Catholic lore, this green gumbo is a perfect combination of five smoked meats and seven different leafy greens. This is an only-in-New Orleans experience that is really only done right in the one and only Dooky Chase's."

$$, Seafood, Cajun / Creole, Touro

"Deep-fried oysters on white bread dressed with lettuce, tomatoes, and mayo—need I say more? According to oyster lore, they are only open in months with an 'r' in them. They also have the greatest salad section to grace a menu—lettuce and tomatoes!"

Entraña Fina con la Piel

La Boca Steaks

$$, Happy Hour, Full Bar, Breakfast, Steakhouse, Argentinian, South American, Lower Garden

"The 'skin' on skirt steak still has the fat and silverskin on it, so it is grilled very slow and low so that the 'skin' renders and becomes all crispy and delicious. The collagen breaks down so that at mid-well, the steak is juicy and sticky."

Shrimp & Tasso Henican

Commander's Palace

$$$$, Reservations, Outdoor Seating, Full Bar, Happy Hour, American, Southern / Soul, Cajun / Creole, Garden

"This is smoky, tasso-stuffed shrimp that are deep-fried and tossed in a hot beurre blanc sauce—but it doesn’t stop there. To guild the lily, they serve it with pickled okra on a puddle of sweet pepper jelly."
