Concierge "The bistro-style menu is long on earthy, comforting flavors: duck with ginger-peach sauce, veal grillades over rich cheese grits, an outstanding duck and andouille étouffée."
Fodor's "This gaily colored cottage filled with a museum's worth of regional art has defined New Orleans Creole bistro fare." Full review
Frommer's "In a small, charming house in a largely residential area, Upperline eschews the high-profile route (unless you count appearances on Treme and The Best Thing I Ever Ate)." Full review

Concierge "For locals, Friday lunch at this sophisticated Creole standby is a weekly tradition; for visitors, it should be a once-in-a-lifetime culinary event."
Fodor's "With many of its recipes dating to 1905, Galatoire's epitomizes the old-style French-Creole bistro." Full review
Frommer's "Follow with grilled or meunière-style redfish with crabmeat, terrific creamed spinach, and glorious, puffy soufflé potatoes." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Galatoire's justifiably styles itself as "the grand dame of old-line New Orleans restaurants and has been a signature French Quarter destination for over a century." Full review
Gayot15.0
"Galatoire's keeps the faith with early twentieth-century fine dining as rooted in classic Creole cuisine, so menu trends are shunned and tradition revered in the elegant, clubby atmosphere." Full review
Rough Guide Star
"This grand Creole establishment – Tennessee Williams’s favourite restaurant – is quintessential New Orleans with its mirror-lined dining room, and not at all stuffy."
Not For Tourists "The grand dame of New Orleans dining."
