Lonely Planet review

The French Quarter's best al fresco dining is to be found in this charmed spot. Amelie occupies an old carriage house, set deep within a beautiful courtyard surrounded by high brick walls and shaded by trees. Fresh seafood and local produce are the basis of a modest, everchanging menu. When available, don't pass on the killer mussels served in a Pernod sauce. Pan seared salmon and blackened rack of lamb make frequent appearances.

Live music often livens up the courtyard in the evening. At lunchtime, Amelie is a quiet retreat for excellent sandwiches and highlights off the dinner menu.
