Love the food here. Local cuisine, raw and broiled oysters. Try to get a seat by the window so you can watch the people on Bourbon Street. That's always interesting, to say the least. :-)

Great place for people watching because all the doors open onto the street. Locals meet here before Saints games. Omni Royal Hotel bar so it's really located on Royal St not on St. Louis.
