Food Scene
Liuzza's is a great neighborhood restaurant! My favorite gumbo in the city. Their BBQ shrimp po-boy is also very good as well. A classic New Orleans' restaurant and very much a local's hangout.

In my opinion the best place to get a Po-Boy in the city. Always good and full of people! Obama went here for his po-boy fix. I love the fried shrimp and a large could easily be split with 2 people.

Great local spot and not your typical sports bar. There is typically live music on Tuesday, Saturday, and Sunday. The crowd is diverse, the music is loud, and the drinks are strong.
