Promising Review: "The Spotted Cat is a great place for live jazz music, well-priced drinks, and a fun crowd. It's somewhat of a small place compared to the other bars/clubs on Frenchmen street and it can get crowded... but it's all part of the fun. There's people drinking and conversing, other people watching the live band, other people dancing with the music.. it definitely fulfilled what I was hoping to experience when out on Frenchmen Street for the first time." –Felicia L.

Lafitte’s Blacksmith Shop Bar on Bourbon Street promises some candlelit, booze-infused fun.

Promising Review: "Oh my gosh. This is literally the best way to describe the poboy I got here. Oh my gosh. It's been over a month since we went, and it's something I still talk about. Often, I try to convince my husband that if we just drove straight through, and left at 4 pm AZ time, we would make it in time to get a poboy here for dinner the next night. My reasoning hasn't worked on him yet, but I'm still hopeful." –Alana J.
