1 Restaurant August
The elegant style and high end boutique makes Restaurant August one of the best places to eat in New Orleans. At this restaurant, you will find a contemporary take on French-Creole classics like oysters, gumbo, and jambalaya, all under the expert eye of renowned creator John Besh.
