Frankie and Johnny’s

An uptown neighborhood favorite of ours… As soon as we land in Nola our next stop is Frankie & Johnny’s for lunch.

The last time we were there we were lucky enough to get our Gumbo, Boiled Shrimp, Fried Oyster Po-Boy with Lagniappe & Catfish before the electricity went out due to a thunderstorm.

Like all New Orleanians, this does not phase them one iota – the staff grabbed a few candles, opened the windows, served what they could, brought everyone beers and everyone smiled and went about their lunch… I love this city!

Order the onion rings, fried peppers and peanut butter pie if you are hurtin!

Super kid friendly.
