The Outer Séance addresses the New Orleans era of Storyville when Muriel's Jackson Square was one of the French Quarter's top bordellos! The Inner Séance is the preferred domain of the resident ghost, Pierre Antoine Lepardi Jourdan; it's the perfect spot for an intimate conversation or a drink among its plush surroundings.

• Cajun • French Quarter
Booked 5 times today
Café Sbisa, established in 1899 and the third oldest fine-dining establishment in the French Quarter, is proud to re-open under the direction of a new team to once again offer the highest quality French-Creole cuisine in a welcoming, historical setting that both locals and tourists will appreciate. Spearheading the new Café Sbisa are Mr. Craig Napoli, who successfully ran the notable restaurant from 1992 - 2005 when Hurricane Katrina devastated the city, and Chef Alfred Singleton, who met Craig when he started working for him at the former Café Sbisa as a prep cook. Now, the unique venue will once again open its doors to serve classic local fare like Turtle Soup, Louisiana Blue Crab Cakes and BBQ Shrimp using the freshest, locally-sourced seafood and produce. While many restaurants tout “fresh and local”, Sbisa means it, as the Napoli family owns their own seafood dock and distribution business in Hopedale, Louisiana.

    Meals were very tasteful. Filet mignon was brought out as medium rare by mistake as I ordered it be cooked medium well. Waiter apologized and the meat was returned to the kitchen to be seared longer. It was perfect when brought back to me.

    We have been visiting restaurants for months and most visits have been mediocre to say the least. Born and raised in New Orleans, unless you visit the known , hidden gems, finding a different place to dine can be hit or miss. We have known about Cafe Sbisa since forever. I’ve tried it once, but couldn’t enjoy the experience for reasons (not at the fault of the restaurant, but at the fault of personal work related reasons) but I vowed to visit again when my husband and I had time. I am so angry we waited so long to visit this gem of a restaurant! The food was absolutely delicious. The service was top notch. The live band made the experience so special and memorable. After the first bite, we were hooked! And it takes a lot for my husband to give credit to restaurants. This restaurant made the top 3 of his list. Kudos to me for booking this long awaited dining experience . I’m mad at myself for being a local and not returning sooner!! We are in anticipation of returning. I haven’t stopped talking about this restaurant since visiting!!

    The pizza was so good. We arrived, were seated immediately, and had our food within minutes!! Myself and another had pizza, my daughter had the spaghetti. Everything was delicious and fresh. It was a little further walking from the convention center than I thought it was going to be, but we were able to see landmarks on our walk there. I definitely recommend making a stop.
