Ordered every type of oyster on the menu (6 in all) and they were great. Also had a sampling of the different appetizers along with the glazed salmon. The food was wonderful in every way. Everything I expected of a good New Orleans restaurant.
The atmosphere was also exquisite along with good service. Only complaint I had was that parking was a little tricky on Friday night since a popular nigh club was located nearby.
Pros: New Orleans Cuisine the way I have come to expect it!
Cons: Parking on "party nights" (Friday & Saturday) was difficult due to local bars and night spots
Cassoulet vs risotto Reviewed by suechef2433 on

I ordered the chicken which was to be atop white bean cassoulet. When I got it, it was risotto, like they thought I wouldn't notice. When I mentioned it to the waiter, he said that they must have run out of cassoulet. Duh. Why didn't someone tell me, I would have ordered something else. No sorry, no comp glass of wine or dessert, no manager. I work for the Ritz Carlton and this is completely unacceptable for a hotel of this caliber. The bartender behind the bar was foul-mouthed and the atmosphere was way too casual for my taste. I hope that they staff better as the city returns.
Pros: atmosphere
Cons: food availibility, parking (fee), loud

Located in the trendy Renaissance Arts Hotel in the Warehouse district, La Cote Brasserie is equally trendy. Though I can't say that I completely agree with the 2003 award for Best Seafood, my meal was quite tasty. The service was excellent and the lunchtime ambiance was very relaxing. I'd be interested to return for drinks in the evening; it's likely a hotspot in the neighborhood.
