New Orleans: A Foodie's Paradise

Indulge in one of the most incredible and diverse concentrations of exceptional dining

George Bernard Shaw once said, "There is no love sincerer than the love of food."

Whether you agree with Mr. Shaw, it is an indisputable fact that no place loves its food quite as sincerely — or as indulgently — as New Orleans. Some people eat to live, but New Orleanians live to eat. As a result, the city offers one of the most incredible and diverse concentrations of exceptional dining and unforgettable cuisine in the world.

Here, you'll find famed classic French, Italian and Spanish restaurants that remain faithful to their roots. You'll also find some of the industry's brightest and most innovative rising stars, serving their own unique versions of what is collectively known as New Orleans Fusion. And of course, you'll be tempted at every turn by New Orleans' signature Cajun and Creole dishes. While exploring New Orleans' culinary wonders, don't forget the surprising selection of other exotic cuisines, including exceptional Latin, Mediterranean and Asian variations that make their own delicious contributions to this gourmet's paradise.

Wherever you choose to eat in New Orleans, prepare your palate to fall in love; there's never been a better time to dine in New Orleans. Your table waits.

Over 1,000 restaurants are open in New Orleans. This includes most of the city's culinary treasures, including such renowned restaurants as:

In addition, many of the city's favorite neighborhood hotspots such as Mother's, Casamento's, Ralph's on the Park, Clancy's, Jacques-Imo's, Upperline, Acme Oyster House, Gumbo Shop, Cafe du Monde, Muriel's, Tujague's, Tommy's and Pascal's Manale are also favorites of our visitors.
