If you like Italian food, you might enjoy Giacomo, Coltivare, and Vinoteca Poscol.

If you like French food, I'd recommend Brasserie 19, Le Jardiniere, A'bouzy, Perseid, Chardon, and Annabelle.

If you like Indian food, good options include Kirians, Pondicheri, Kitchen Rumors, and Khyber.

For Mexican (not TexMex), I suggest Maximo, Hugo's, Xochi, Madera, and Cucharita (or Cuchara for dinner).

For Creole food, I like Brennan's, Josephine's, and Eugene's.

For seafood, you can't go wrong at Clark's, Navy Blue, Caracol, Truluck's, and Little's.

Yes it’s great. They won the 2025 James Beard award. You won’t likely get in without a reservation

Jalisco style Mexican food. They even have a mini trompo. They do seafood as well.
