Food Scene

If you had an adventurous night and need show yourself some TLC, go to Elizabeth's. Loaded with art and a seriously delicious menu, they are packed on Saturdays and Sundays so be prepared to wait a bit. It’s a mix of decadent Southern and New Orleans flair. One of our favorites is the sweet potato waffle with duck hash. Cocktails are stiff and the vibe is very relaxed. It’s also across the street from Crescent Park, in case you need a stroll after.

The Country Club was gorgeously renovated shortly before the pandemic. It is really about the experience and then food which has much improved over the years. 21 years and older. No kids. First and foremost, locals flock to the Country Club for its pool access which provides sweet relief during the oppressive months of July, August, September and sometimes October. Second best kept secret about the Country Club is their Drag Queen Brunch, wonderful and immersive experience that typically books months in advance.

One our favorites, Satsuma is located within walking distance of Macarty House. Their menu has options for everyone: vegetarians, vegan, and carnivores. Fare is on the lighter side but that doesn't mean you won't leave satisfied. Open for both breakfast and lunch. This is the spot for everything avocado toast to tofu scrambles, fresh squeezed juices, breakfast plates... One of our personal favorites is the Green eggs and ham breakfast sandwich: scrambled egg with basil pesto, shaved Nueske's ham, melted swiss and red onion on a bagel. Oh and the coffee is mighty fine too.

Bacchanal is one the places to visit if you're looking tapas/small plates and a backyard party featuring live music on the weekends. It's a NOLA experience with excellent wine selection. You walk into a wine store front, select your bottle(s), pay for the vino and head out to the backyard seating area grabbing your wine bucket and ice along the way. Delicious small plates are available at the walk up window located on the backside of the building.
