Restaurants near Le Meridien New Orleans

Best place for fine dining in New Orleans. Food is excellent and the wait staff is THE BEST!!

One of the best brunch experiences I’ve had was at Luke’s, a tucked-away gem in the Business District. From the moment we walked in, the bright, thoughtfully designed decor set a vibrant, inviting tone — modern yet cozy, with just the right energy for a weekend brunch. I ordered the crawfish omelet, which was absolutely packed with flavor — rich, tender crawfish folded into perfectly fluffy eggs. It came with crisp, golden hot fries and a refreshing side salad that balanced the richness of the meal beautifully. My partner went with the spinach omelet, which was light yet hearty, full of fresh greens and melty cheese. The drinks were just as memorable. We had strong, well-made mimosas and rich, fresh-brewed coffee — the kind that actually wakes you up and pairs perfectly with good food and even better company. Luke’s felt like a hidden brunch oasis right in the middle of the city, blending comfort, quality, and charm in all the right ways. Definitely a spot we’ll return to.

Quinten was our server and he was awesome. He knew the menu well, gave great service and recommendations.

Just a nice way to celebrate my birthday . Great evening

The prime rib was excellent. The crab cakes were delicious as well.
