Bayona is located in the French Qtr. at 430 Dauphine St. Telephone is 504.525.4455. This is also a good place for a romantic date!
I second the recommendation for Bayona for a date. All of the Emeril's places are good and Commander's is excellent (make sure you ask for a table upstairs with a garden view).
