Le Chat Noir
French · New Orleans, LA
About
Expect a crowd of locals and visitors looking for something beyond gumbo and jambalaya. Le Chat Noir breaks from New Orleans clichés, serving contemporary French bistro dishes with a wood fire grill and a stand-up oyster bar. The kitchen sources local ingredients and uses modern techniques, with plenty of options for vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free guests. A full bar and happy hour make it easy to linger.
The Arts/Warehouse District spot takes reservations, so book ahead. That said, Yelp currently notes the venue may be permanently closed, so verify before heading out. If you're in the area, Commander's Palace is another classic for French Creole fare.
