I don't really remember any restaurants we went to, but I remember a lot of people recommending Mother's. You have to go to Cafe Du Monde, super touristy, but it was the best part of the trip.

Oh crap, completely forgot my favorite place: Palace Cafe !! Get the turtle soup, it's absolutely fantastic.
Recommendation: good but not too fancy restaurant near Boston Park Plaza Hotel?

Rockbottom Restaurant and Brewery is a good pub, a short taxi ride or 10 minute walk away is the more expensive Atlantic Fish Company
