Another three-generation Italian stronghold. The spaghetti with eggplant St. John was very reminiscent of pasta alla Norma. We also had a delicious rendition of crispyfried artichokes.

Best starter is the fried green tomatoes with shrimp remoulade. For the entree, you have to get the frenchulatta—overstuffed muffaletta on french bread—and a side of onion rings.
Go for “The Frenchuletta.” It's an enormous muffuletta on a French bread loaf. Chef John Besh puts Liuzza’s on his list for best authentic places in New Orleans.
