I went to Emerils for my birthday lunch and I wished I had not. I had not been in years so I thought it would be nice. The food is good but the locals really don't go. If you go, I would recommend lunch. Other suggestions are Lilette, Commander's Palace-always good and a classic, Rene Bistro, August, Cuvee, NOLA's, Antoines (if you can get in the back), New Orleans Grille at the Windsor Court and HerbSaint. You won't go wrong with any of those.

Have been thinking about making resevations at "Emerils" place, you know from the food network. Has anyone been? Comments are greatly appreciated. If there are other suggestions that would be fine also. One note, I DO NOT want to have to dress up. I like casual.
Thanks,
Phil
