Restaurants cuisine régionale The United States Of America

Moved in the former premises of the Blue Dog Cafe, Bon Temps Grill is a gourmet address that never stops. We come here for its delicious appetizers like the fried alligator with Bang Bang sauce (we love it!) or the fried crayfish and jalapeno fritters with remoulade sauce. It is also here that the locals come to taste one of the best gumbos in town, reminding them of the traditional family recipe. Nice selection of fish, seafood and grilled meats, not to mention a well-stocked bar with a number of Louisiana spirits.

What a great place, nestled in a Creole house in a residential area with beautiful artwork adorning the walls! Atchafalaya does typical New Orleans cuisine while pushing the boundaries of tradition. Its shrimp & grits dish is known as one of the best in town, but you should also try the gumbo of the day or the mushroom risotto from Maggies Farm. The brunch, offered every day and with live music on weekends, is an absolute must, especially since the place offers a Bloody Mary Bar. A must try!

Sister address of Naalehu Restaurant, Taco tita specializes, as its name indicates, in take-out tacos. You will have the choice between several meats (pork, chicken, beef or snapper) or vegetables and starches for the vegetarian option as well as a sauce (cream-based, tomato-based, spicy...). Also worth trying are the nachos, served in generous portions, accompanied by homemade passion fruit lemonade or Horchata, a drink made from rice and almond milk. Payment in cash only.

It's THE soul food spot in the Mid-City neighborhood, a type of cuisine that is ultra comforting and very popular in the United States. And Heard Dat Kitchen has been a family affair since it opened in 2015, with Jeffrey Heard and his daughter Tia at the helm in the kitchen. Iconic crowd-pleasers include the Superdome (blackened fish topped with mashed potatoes, lobster gravy, corn and onion rings) and the Bourbon Street Love (fried chicken served on mac & cheese with shredded cheddar and Crawdat's famous house sauce).

Cody and Sam Carroll, who have won numerous culinary competitions, opened this great restaurant in a former convenience store. Their cuisine is simple, but oh-so-tasty, and features classic Southern Louisiana dishes. Boudin or crawfish balls, alligator po-boy, seafood gumbo, crawfish etouffee and fried seafood are all on the menu. The burgers are highly recommended, especially the blue cheese burger or the one with fried crawfish. A good address at low prices!

Chef-owner Isaac Toups is one of the up-and-coming chefs in Cajun cuisine. It must be said that his family has been established on Louisiana soil for over three hundred years! Since its opening about ten years ago, the restaurant has not been empty. Many come for the house-made charcuterie (hence the name of the establishment), which is featured both in the dishes and on the tasting board. A must try is the couvillion, a Cajun fish and seafood stew. The chocolate and chicory pie is a must.

A nice little address located on the shores of Cane River Lake that serves delicious Italian and Creole cuisine. Fish and seafood are in the spotlight here (crawfish etouffee, shrimp & grits, fried oysters, etc.), but also pasta (mention the capellini with shrimp and creamy champagne sauce), grilled meats and po-boys, burgers and gourmet sandwiches. Bonus: the restaurant has a very nice terrace on the waterfront.

Shaka Tacoz is an institution on the West Coast, better to reserve in advance by phone so as not to wait too long on the spot. On the menu: tacos, bowl or burrito with a choice of meats (pork, beef, fish, asada, vegetables) and a choice of sauces (lemon and cream, mango or lava, more or less spicy). Salad or quesadilla option. The products are fresh and the dishes are copious. Discounts on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Shaka Tacoz also recently opened a bar-truck in Kona at 75-6129 Ali'i Dr. from Tuesday to Sunday from 10am to 5pm.

Beauxdines' is known for its boiled seafood, which is usually available at 11:00 a.m. in season (unlike other restaurants that only offer it in the evening). But it is also known for its oysters, gourmet burgers (including options without beef but with oysters, shrimp or fish) and its typical specialties such as crawfish etouffee, chicken and sausage gumbo and blood sausage (whole or in balls). You should also try its potatoes stuffed with shredded pork or seafood.

Here is a 100% local address on the heights of Captain Cook, along the road that leads to Two Steps and the south of the island. Run by native Hawaiians, this small family restaurant offers traditional dishes: lomi lomi salmon, kalua pork or even pork or chicken laulau. It is simple but consistent and well prepared. It is possible to eat there but we advise you to go a little further to find a spot with a view. For dessert, don't miss the Haupia Pie with coconut and sweet potato, a real treat.

This second address opened in 2016 in Lahaina. Fish for all tastes: in sandwiches, in sashimi, as a dish or in salad. Not to mention fish and chips and fish pasta! The dishes on the menu change according to the catch of the day. Very good value for money. The must: the mahi burger, also called "ono" burger ("delicious" in Hawaiian). It is also the cheapest dish, ideal for small budgets. Note that the line forms every day at the entrance of the restaurant from 11 am, anticipate.

What started out as a food truck called "The Que Crawl" has had a popular home base since 2008. The name of the restaurant refers to the Cajun tradition of butchering pigs, which are killed according to a ritual and shared between neighboring families to feed themselves throughout the winter. Pork is on the menu, but so is smoked Wagyu beef brisket, applewood-smoked scallops and pan-fried swordfish. We recommend the chef's 5-course menu to fully discover the flavors of the American South.

Behind a bamboo fence, you enter a cosy and friendly restaurant. The garlands on the ceiling create a romantic atmosphere. On the menu, mainly American dishes with some seafood are available, often very good, including, for example, fried oysters. Everything is often well cooked and the portions are reasonable. A very nice address, some would even say that it is one of the best in the city!

Very popular with the locals, Umeke is a poke restaurant ("umeke" means "bowl" in Hawaiian) made famous by its chef Nakoa Pabre who has participated in many television shows in the United States. On the menu: traditional Hawaiian dishes revisited with a modern touch like the "next level laulau" or the "mo loco" and of course poke bowls with several sauces to choose from (da Avo with avocado, Aina with sweet potato and broccoli...). A treat. Live music from 6pm to 8:30pm.

This coffee shop set in a cottage in the middle of a garden makes you want to push the door open. In addition to cookies, burrito breakfasts, lavanda vanilla latte and green turkey sandwiches, the specialties of the house, it hosts outdoor country, rock and jazz concerts in the summer, but also weddings. And on the other side of the house, at the end of the hallway, we find a cozy bar, the Revive Bar Room. Last but not least, the owner Robin knows all the good tips of the region and runs a paddle boat business on the lake in the summer.

Here is a restaurant that respects its terroir, sourcing from farmers and producers in Port Allen or St. Francisville. It must be said that Sally and Russell Davis are not at their first try and it is in 2015 that this Baton Rouge restaurant was born (the name pays tribute to their daughter). On the plate, a contemporary Creole cuisine (crawfish and catfish etouffee, shrimp & grits, gumbo ya ya, etc.). For a fresh dish, we recommend the watermelon salad with arugula, cucumber, mint, aged feta and red onion.

Just across the street from City Hall is this great steakhouse that locals like to frequent regularly. It's more upscale than a traditional Texas steakhouse, with tasty and creative dishes full of flavor and color. We highly recommend this address if you are looking for good meat, accompanied by fresh vegetables and a good wine. The cuisine is light and you don't leave with a bloated stomach. They also serve good salads such as the burrata and tomato salad, topped with walnut pesto.

The Paddock Club is a restaurant that offers American cuisine of Italian inspiration, as evidenced by the many pasta dishes on the menu. Behind the stove, chef Lynn Chisholm, who has worked in some of Milwaukee's finest restaurants, uses mostly local and seasonal produce. So the menu changes regularly, but don't worry: everything is good! Flavours explode in the mouth, we ask for more. If the mushroom risotto fritter is still on the menu, go ahead with your eyes closed... Best restaurant in town.

This is the other institution in New Glarus, where you come to taste... Swiss specialties, of course. Everything is there: excellent cheese fondue, raclette, cheese and charcuterie platters, and other authentic Swiss dishes with unpronounceable names that will delight the taste buds of meat and cheese lovers. There are two areas: the small room towards the entrance, very cosy, which houses the bar (ask to be seated there); and the large room at the back, less charming but friendly because it often hosts musicians.

We go to this restaurant to eat delicious seafood in all simplicity. The tables are not covered, the atmosphere is friendly, the service without fuss, and that's exactly what pleases me. We will enjoy with fish and chips as much as with leg crabs, served warm and brushed with butter... We appreciate the fact that we can eat outside when the weather is fine. A good little address.

Just a stone's throw from the subway exit, here is a warm enclave where you stop to recharge your batteries before starting your visit to the neighbourhood. The owner started baking after learning that she had cancer, when just baking cupcakes changed her mind! Cupcakes are a natural part of this bright coffee menu, along with a host of other sweet treats, such as cookies and donuts, and savoury dishes that are perfect for breakfast.

In this restaurant, you can enjoy Maine lobster at reasonable prices. The lobster roll, a dish made from lobster and hot dog bread, is the house's specialty, and can be enjoyed in various forms: cold and with mayonnaise, hot and glossy butter or, for those who are not afraid to mix the types, with bacon, tomatoes and salad. The only criticism we would have to make of the lobster roll is that it's not big enough!
