Open noon-midnight daily

    • This painted, peach-coloured 1920s mansion has two indoor colonial-style dining rooms and an outdoor grill restaurant. Both offer healthy-sized traditional Creole dishes, which are reasonable value without being of exceptional quality. The inside dining room may leave you somewhat cold, it misses that extra factor, which is a shame since the décor, including stained-glass ceiling lamps and contemporary paintings, is impressive.
