Best restaurants near me in Woodmere, LA

Smoked trout roe carmelized onion dip - outstanding, I could eat this every day. My second time ordering and it never disappoints. crab Maison - comforting and delish, can’t go wrong Shrimp chirrata - delicious but spicy be warned Fried boudin and corn grits - just do it, so savory and good. Bread service - I will go back just for the bread service, some of the best bites of my life. Great service, great atmosphere. We always enjoy ourselves here !!

I read about this place and it was our first meal on this visit to New Orleans. What a start to a trip! Amazing lunch. I would suggest making a reservation as it was full when we dined on a Friday. We sat at the bar and the bartender was great, tasty drinks (the Tavi Spritz is my new favorite drink) and good advice on food. We started with the half order of fried chicken hummus. Creamy hummus topped with chucks of fried chicken and amazing salsa verde. So good! The fresh pita and olive oil and spices served with it were perfect. I loved the crispy halloumi. Crispy and hot drizzled with honey and on the best citrus and nut base. Every bite was a flavor bomb. ❤️ The lamb kofta had nice char and flavor , served on some spicy spread with tomatoes and yogurt to cool it off. The sujuk pide is big. A thin bread wrapped around tender meat and cheese with tomatoes on top. Filling but so good! We didn’t have room for dessert because we enjoyed the lunch so much. I would definitely go back and try more. And more crispy halloumi!

Why is this place so good? Because it's beautiful, the food comes out hot and fast (but not too fast!) and is uniformly delicious, the prices are right, and I can state without equivocation that there is no better service in the city. No better service in the city? Our waiter yesterday was so on top of things, courteous, attentive, present, etc. – I cannot complement him, his assistants, and the restaurant enough!

Our first time to La Petite Grocery and it was fantastic! Great drinks at the bar before dinner and a wonderful meal. We jay missed out on one of the appetizer specials but plenty of other great options. Will definitely be back!!

- shrimp and grits very well seasoned - duck confit good balance of sweet savory - ambiance lovely, but I read somewhere there was jazz during lunch and it seemed very muted, but maybe that’s just me - service was exceptional! our server Chris kept checking in on us and went above and beyond.
