About
Antoine's, 713 St Louis St (between Bourbon and Royal Sts), ☎ +1 504 581-4422, [59]. M-Sa 11:30AM-2PM and 5:30PM-9PM, Su 11AM-2PM. Antoine's lays claim to being the oldest same family owned restaurant in the country. Opening in 1840, this French Creole restaurant is where oysters rockefeller was invented in the 1890s -- and the only restaurant where the original authentic oysters rockefeller can be eaten, as the recipe is a closely guarded secret. Your waiter is your guide here; treat them well and ask their recommendations. Before dining, ask your server for a tour of the historic restaurant. There are over fifteen separate dining rooms, all of which reek of tradition and are steeped in history. Make sure to take a peek down the vast and cavernous wine cellar, which can take the breath away from a true wine lover. Antoine's has recently opened a beautiful new bar. Step off of St. Louis and step into history. (29.956698,-90.066479)
