If you love burgers and beer then head over here!!! The Monahan family along with long-time employee "lloyd" created the first REAL restaurant on St. Claude . . . casual and great. We love Pauli the barman. The Boxcar Burger is terrific. Beer selection on tap is extensive with lots of local and regional brews.

Drinks & Nightlife
Entertainment street has morphed over the years on this stretch of Frenchman Street from Esplanade and ending at Royal Street & Washington Square Park. Blue, Traditional Jazz, National acts (at Snug Harbor catch the Marsalis Family on any given night and Charmaine Neville is a regular) or check out DBA, Spotted Cat, Apple Barrel, Blue Nile and more. There is a nightly art market . . .only a 7 minute stroll from the house!
Cab it back though if it's late!

Sightseeing
No visit to New Orleans would be complete without spending time in The French Quarter! May I suggest one very, very secret place . . . The rooftop at the OMNI hotel at St. Louis and Chartres street. Ask for a key from the front desk (during daylight hours!) and just say you would like to see the view. If they balk, tell them you will buy a drink from the bar in the Rib Room (their restaurant - quite good!) and that should do it.
The view overlooking the French Quarter makes you feel like you are in Paris. And, it will really give you a perspective of the Mississippi River and the Crescent curve hence the name, The Crescent City.

Take a ferry ride across to Historic Algiers Point and see New Orleans from another perspective. Have a drink at the old point bar and see the intact enclave of historic house. Watch the ferry time or its a cab ride back!
