The best restaurants The United States Of America

Located on the north shore of Union Lake, this restaurant offers a dream space to eat in the face of lake water activity, whether in the room or on the outdoor terrace with fireplaces. Some customers even have their kayak or boat at the restaurant deck. This comes to the ultra oysters and other seafood inspired by Pacific cooking. The interior decoration is worth a look.

The Shack is one of the most popular places in Montauk. We come to eat good fish and seafood dishes, but also to enjoy its pleasant terrace which is always full during the summer. There is a nice drinks menu, which includes local whiskey (Montauk Hard Label) and many cocktails, most of them fruity. The atmosphere is always friendly and very "beach", so it sometimes feels like you're in California! There are often evening concerts.

It is the local's favourite place to eat real Buffalo wings, chicken wings served fried with a hot sauce made with chilli, vinegar and melted butter. The good news is that you can choose the degree of spiciness of Buffalo sauce. Don't make the mistake of ordering the hottest sauce, it's no coincidence that it's called suicidal!

A typical address in the CBD whose success is based on the traditional recipes of the mother of the first owner. Since the years have passed, the owners have changed but the kitchen has remained the same.

Be warned, there is often a queue. It's normal since it's one of those good gourmet and affordable addresses. A must try: the ham (house specialty), the hearty po-boys (including the unavoidable Ferdi with ham, roast beef and debris in juice), the homemade cookies or the famous omelets.

Welcomed by the plants of a florist at the entrance, we love this charming café-restaurant for its wide variety of fresh and appetizing dishes featuring local and healthy ingredients. We come here mainly for breakfast (large variety of eggs) and lunch to enjoy a vegetarian dish mainly. There is also a delicatessen to fill up before a picnic and a traditional bakery. A crush.

Try the local specialty, the crawfish pistolette, a fried crawfish fritter. Otherwise, don't miss the boudin balls, a fried boudin very typical of Lake Charles. There are several other specialties as well, such as po-boys, gumbo, rice and red bean platter or the captain's generous seafood platter. The stewed dishes are rather spicy. A restaurant where tourists and locals easily mix. There is a second location on South Martin Luther King, as well as one in DeRidder in the Crossroads area.

The popular Rita Mae's Kitchen restaurant is located in a pretty little house. You can come at any time, for breakfast, for a well-cooked steak or fried chicken, for a po-boy for the road (more than a dozen options) and for its array of Southern American specialties (seafood gumbo, crawfish etouffee, fried seafood including oysters, shrimp, etc.). The portions are large and will satisfy big appetites. We like this place for its affordable prices and its very varied menu.

Installed on the island since 2003, this crêperie with a purple front and the accents of a French bistro is run by French people. The food is very good, and we say that without chauvinism! At breakfast, you will enjoy croissants (plain or gourmet version with eggs and bacon), and other homemade pastries, served with a coffee latte, or why not, a Mimosa! At lunchtime, there are savory crepes (we recommend the one with lobster) and about twenty sweet crepes. If you feel like a meal with a Frenchy flavor, go there!

Maxim's in New Orleans. Installed in a Victorian house from the 1880's, you can't miss this restaurant with its duck blue walls and the white and blue striped awning that shelters its facades. Don't forget to make a reservation and to follow the dress code. Since its opening in 1880, the Commander's Palace has received numerous awards for the quality of its cuisine. You must try the turtle soup, the wild white Louisiana shrimp and, for dessert, the famous bread pudding soufflé. The weekend brunch is also very popular.

Franky & Johnny's has been in existence for over half a century and has kept this label in "New Orleans Diner". This is where to eat crayfish. The entrance to the bar is dark and just lit by the TV screens. Then there is a way to go through the crowd of beer drinkers and American football players to sit down at a messy table. The atmosphere is very typical; especially during games or after the Jazz Fest and Tuesday Gras. Almost everything on the menu is fried: Big sweet butterfly shrimp with green pepper and crispy chicken. All sandwiches are possible, just ask. This is a place not to miss to test what New Orleans really is.

A rather nice restaurant-bar, located in downtown Shreveport at the entrance of the Red River district. We go there mainly for two reasons: the well-served Cajun specialties - which remind us that Shreveport oscillates between Cajun country and the Texas border - and for the tasty appetizers that we nibble while soaking up the pub and popular atmosphere of the Blind Tiger. Mention should also be made of the fried seafood dishes and the selection of Louisiana spirits. In short, generous portions and good value for money!

Founded in 1869, this restaurant is very well known in the region and is located in the heart of downtown, just steps away from the Vermilion River. Specializing in fried or boiled seafood, Cajun style: crabs, shrimp, crawfish, and the famous glazed and salted oysters! Some nice meat dishes are also on the menu, as well as po-boys, burgers, seafood or chicken and sausage gumbo, etc. A very popular address with the locals.

A Cajun restaurant specializing in blood sausage (in balls, by the pound or even in burgers), seafood (especially crawfish boiled and well spiced in season) and grilled meat (especially steaks). The menu also includes other typical Louisiana dishes such as frog legs, crawfish etouffee, jambalaya and the traditional gumbo. There is also a canteen-style slate where you can order a cheeseburger or a club sandwich on the go. Note that Hollier is a stop on the boudin route.

If during the week we go there mostly for the po-boys, which are delicious and famous, it is for the Sunday morning brunch that you will appreciate the atmosphere of this unique place. Bozz, the boss with the look of a tidy godfather, proposes a typical menu of Louisiana cuisine, which is absolutely crowned with a trio of homemade beignets. All this with the option of cocktails at will and you will be able to melt in the mass (the crowd, sometimes...) of this former gas station reconverted which attracts the whole of Shreveport, well-to-do as well as broke. A must!

Traditional French cuisine in this small restaurant in La Marina. Here no frills, the owner, Stephen, put emphasis on good dishes from home served in good quantity. An ideal place to change the French neighbourhood of Union Square.

This restaurant is very representative of New Orleans and its cuisine. Far from downtown, it is a good place to escape the tourist attractions and meet the locals. Even if the place is noisy and crowded, the food is good and the service excellent. You must try the shrimp & alligator sausage cheesecake with shrimp and alligator, the fried green tomatoes with shrimp remoulade. Don't be in a hurry! Everything is prepared on site and to order.

Rated one of Monroe's top restaurants and located in the historic J. S. Bloch Building, Cotton features Southern American cuisine. The menu is inventive and never disappoints, both for lunch and dinner. The popular Sunday brunch offers a similar menu, paired with a signature cocktail like the Sazerac or Pimm's Cup or a signature version like the Planter's Punch. Cotton has two other establishments in the same building: The Eli (cocktails and tapas) and Planter's Gastropub (gourmet pub with terrace).

This fine dining establishment is located across from Bayou Bonfouca in a charming Acadian cottage. Here you can enjoy the fine cuisine of Chef Ross Dover, which is inspired by local and seasonal products: barbecued shrimp from New Orleans, gumbo with duck and Tasso ham or fried oysters from the Gulf of Mexico. From Friday to Sunday, there is the inevitable brunch, always with live music (jazz on Sunday). In addition to its delicious cocktails (including the Cajun Bloody Mary), its menu has something to tempt you. We warmly recommend it!

We love this restaurant for its typical Louisiana operation. Far from conventions, decorative ornaments, here you eat in baskets, picnic tables outside or directly in your car, crayfish crayfish, chicken sandwiches, baked crabs and other fish fritures. When the crayfish season starts, Cormier wakes up and the premises with!

Known to all locals, this restaurant - not part of the Landry chain - serves, as the name implies, the full range of seafood and USDA beef grills possible. For seafood, the big "festival" plates are the way to go. Specialties like shrimp & grits, crawfish etouffee, po-boy or gumbo are also on the menu. A buffet is offered for lunch during the week as well as on Friday and Saturday nights (Cajun music in the evening).

This restaurant, which is the oldest in downtown, looks like a cantine without much charm. But don't be fooled by appearances, because this place has some of the best po-boys in Louisiana, and that's why we come here. They also prepare hearty plates of seafood, fried oysters or red beans with rice and smoked sausage, not to mention gumbo, salads and various sandwiches. On weekdays until 10am, the house also prepares classic breakfasts.

This historic bistro is known to be located at the most photographed corner of the French Quarter on Bourbon Street. The interior reminds a Parisian brewery with its golden chandeliers and windows adorned with stained glass windows. If the place is particularly tourist, you must recognize a certain charm and a very broad map. All louisianaises specialties and their shades are represented, such as Creole gumbo, po-boy, jambalaya or crayfish. Oyster trays are also stars of the place. We come to every hour of the day, with great pleasure!

A restaurant to discover, under the guidance of renowned chef Bonnie Breaux. Here you can enjoy delicious certified Angus beef steaks, crabcakes, a variety of fish and seafood, fried alligator, crawfish etouffee, gumbo and other regional specialties. Locals are sure to recommend the place, and you may need to make reservations in the evening to avoid waiting too long. The crabcakes are among the most famous in the area. To top it off, the service is attentive and warm.

Broussards has two faces. Lunch is available at a reasonable price (approximately $ 15 to US $ 20) while tasting a few culinary successes, such as massive, panini panini or the burger to crabcake. This menu is served only in the courtyard or bar. In the evening, the large rooms open their doors and the atmosphere becomes more crested. Charcuterie plates, oysters, Louisiana bouillabaisse, the chef pulls out the great means and off us.

This is a well-known address for locals where they prepare good Cajun specialties: crawfish etouffee, fried or boiled seafood and spicy gumbo, but also some tender fried frogs' legs, directly caught in the bayou. The menu does not stop there and offers many other dishes, to be tasted in the dining room or on the large terrace overlooking the bayou. An authentic address. Note that the restaurant also runs a small hotel with about thirty simple rooms and continental breakfast is included.

When it opened in 1941, Edward Chase Sr., known as Dooky, and his wife Emily owned a small sandwich shop where African-Americans felt at home. Their daughter-in-law Leah now runs the place and has turned it into a nationally recognized restaurant for local Creole cuisine. A gathering place for leaders of the civil rights movement (Martin Luther King passed through here), this is also where Barack Obama came when he visited New Orleans right after his presidential inauguration.

It's located in the Ferry Building Market, but retains a casual, vintage, seaside feel. This oyster bar and seafood restaurant also exists in other cities around San Francisco Bay; it's a quality local brand. The grilled sardines are delicious, as is the clam soup, and so are the seafood platters. But don't miss the house specialty, oysters, beautifully served with a parsley vinegar, all accompanied by a small white wine, just like at home.

A good place to eat Italian in Shreveport. A la carte, Sicilian spaghetti, pickled shrimp, meat boulettes, po calf or chicken, assorted and varied salads in blue, chicken… Monjunis is also an opportunity to taste muffaletta, a sandwiche filled with several ingredients, smoked turkey, eggplant or salami.

Desert Bistro is one of Moab's best restaurants, with a warm, historic setting in a former dance hall dating back to 1892. Karl and Michelle Kelley take great care of their guests. Fresh fish, homemade agnolotti pasta stuffed with parmesan, asagio and mushrooms, duck confit, marinated and grilled pork... The cuisine is refined and creative without losing its local roots. The meat is delicious, the dishes well worked. An excellent address to discover, promise of a beautiful evening.

This burger chain has a modern and pleasant setting. It is a very successful address because of its privileged position, the quality of its meats and its particularly affordable prices - especially for the Strip. Its outdoor terrace, slightly elevated from Las Vegas Boulevard, is an ideal and pleasant vantage point that is hard to leave. In addition to the must-have sandwiches, you'll find crispy chicken, a hot dog and, surprising as it may seem in a fast food restaurant, wine.

The first Chinese restaurant in North America to be awarded a star by the Michelin Guide, Wing Lei offers excellent cuisine, served in an elegant dining room amidst upside-down golden jars. You'll taste refined flavors from Canton, Shanghai and Sichuan, ingeniously revisited and combined by chef Ming Yu. The crispy Imperial Peking Duck, to be rolled in small pancakes and dipped in the house sauce, is a delight - and a very expensive one.

You will find at Johnny, in a cafeteria decor, more than 43 kinds of po, the best in the city. The local sandwich is served in all the sauces: with scrambled or ham eggs for breakfast or with alligator or crayfish for lunch.

Fast-food American kitchen with menu of hamburgers, hot dogs, grilled chicken, chili or the lightest of Caesar salad. All served with fries and soda, of course!

A nice address that is a bit eccentric and cheap, with a cosy atmosphere. Here you can have lunch with an excellent panini or a salad with a milkshake or even a pastry. A must of the address, fries cooked in duck fat (it is from this ultra rich specialty that the name of the restaurant was born)! It is a family establishment, which enjoys an excellent reputation among locals and tourists, who return to the area. Be prepared to queue in season.

The Bright Angel Restaurant offers a classic, correct restaurant.

In this former gas station transformed into a restaurant by a Texan, you can enjoy sandwiches, nachos and, above all, barbecued ribs served in cardboard plates full of beans and coleslaw. A delight! Some evenings, cowboys come with their guitars and sing in front of the guests seated on long tables covered with checkered tablecloths. An address where authenticity and good atmosphere reign.

Opened since 1998, the Kaiser Grille is the favorite of premises like visitors. It serves charcoal roasted meat. A very good address for an elegant meal but not out of price.

Located a few steps from Jackson Square and established in one of the oldest buildings in the French Quarter, Gumbo Shop is a good place to try local cuisine. In a large room with a Parisian brasserie feel and beautiful engravings on the walls reminiscent of French New Orleans, you can try Cajun or Creole meat or seafood dishes, all at a reasonable price. The service is fast and efficient, and the food quite good. The interior courtyard is very pleasant, unless you are near the entrance hallway.

The restaurant at the famous Buffalo Bill Hotel is a good option to extend the experience after one night on the spot, or simply to impress the atmosphere and the rich history of the place. At the walls, many photos of Buffalo Bill and his daughter also find different objects of origin as the incredible cash register. The place is typical with its traditional tapestry and ceiling ceiling, its deer chandeliers. Don't miss the fireplace built by Buffalo Bill from fossils. It's the favorite place for big eating people with different formulas, also classic à la carte dishes and a beautiful range of grilled meat.

One of the best buffets in town, at a reasonable price considering the quality of the dishes offered. Fine pizzas, sushi, salads, grilled meats, steamed bites... All nationalities are represented with Japan, China, the United States and Italy in the spotlight. The brunch dishes are also worth the detour, especially the omelets that are prepared to order. The dessert station is one of the highlights of this place, with a wide assortment of cookies, pastries and ice cream.

You will not have fully experienced New England until you have eaten in a clam shack or crab shack. Located on the harbour, this restaurant, whose outdoor dining room and tables are overrun by holidaymakers in the summer, serves good food in a simple manner. You can order a sandwich with fries, such as lobster or a plate of seafood. There are also salads, meat, and a children's menu. The atmosphere is holiday, relaxed, and the terrace is particularly pleasant.

Historically, this is the first type of van in Kahuku. And the establishment claims it high and strong on the panels! Above all, since other vans have moved around and competition has become fierce, we cannot miss Giovanni's van at any rate; This is the first one to see and its white body is literally covered with graffiti.

But shrimp have lost in quality over time, and their seasoning also. As for cleanliness, it is average. Instead, go to the nearby pickup truck.

The beautiful courtyard with vineyards and its romantic atmosphere (especially in the evening) are the few more of this address. The buffet serves the enlarge of New Orleans. The dishes lack refinement. If you're lucky, a jazz group will regain the hubbub of seated tourists.

At Chipotle, we don't quibble over the quantities of rice, meat or hot sauce when preparing tacos or burritos, nor over guacamole and Mexican chips. Rations are prepared to order with the ingredients you choose. Although the atmosphere remains that of a fast-food restaurant, a special effort has been made to the design of the place and the background music played.

Walk on Michigan Avenue, this is the only way to locate this restaurant, perched above the shops. The entrance is done by Ontario Street. Take the escalator leading you to a superb dining room, with a Las Vegas style - at the edge of the kitsch. Under the dome, fleece benches await guests, guided by a white and white staff. In this more than rich decor, you can eat dishes of little sophisticated but carefully prepared dishes. Burgers, salads, big classics are on the menu. Don't be surprised by gargantuan portions, better be two per dish… After this feast, take a moment to leave your eyes drifting through the immense windows that illuminate the room.
