Cochon. Herbsaint. Muriel's. Ralph's on the Park can get you started. For heaven's sake be careful. Consider using Uber so that you don't have to hail a cab. You are too exposed. Stay away from the French Quarter. I'm not kidding about that.

High dinning or low??

Cochon the Butcher...can walk from WW II museum. Awesome lunch

Mothers.... classic po boys

August... fine dining

Pesche..... incredible. James Beard award winning

Restaurant Revolution.... table 51 in the Market Room. You won't be sorry

Johnny Sanchez.... hot new lunch spot from Aaron Sanchez & John Besh.

Eats New Orleans.... awesome bkfast/brunch.

There's more.... lots more but we tend to avoid the old guard of restaurants.

I travel a lot for business and personal. My favorite foodie site for traveling to the 25 largest cities in the US is eater.com. They publish an Essential 38 list 3 to 4 times per year, and it's all different food genres and different price points. I've only had very good to exceptional meals when eating off the Essential 38 list the past 5 years.

Here is the Essential 38 list for New Orleans

BTW, you should try both cajun and creole while you're there. Many people find out many of their favorite "cajun" dishes are actually creole.

Deanie's in Bucktown is my go to. Close to Lakefront Airport which I stop at regularly. The BBQ shrimp are great!

If you want fancy and expensive, Commander's Palace is as good as it gets.

And in the Quarter, Galatoire's is also old time New Orleans fine dining.

I like the old fashioned places. New Orleans does tradition well, and the two above make a great meal, too.

Not a stretch at all, AMAZING food down in NOLA. ENJOY! You've got loads of great recommendations, I will just add go to Cafe Du Monde for the Biegniets and chickory coffee one morning. I'm salivating thinking about how good that was.

This is every night in the Quarter. I consult there on video surveillance and public safety. It's the only city in the US with a crime rate like the Horn of Africa. Crime in NO

Not near the Museum, but:
Rocky and Carlos.
Quite an experience. My kind of food, too!
Some historic sites nearby in Chalmette, too.
