Cafe Degas

"Cafe Degas is a charming French bistro that offers a taste of Paris in the heart of New Orleans. Located on the historic Esplanade Avenue, Cafe Degas has been serving authentic French cuisine since 1980, making it the longest-running French bistro in the city. The cozy and intimate atmosphere, enhanced by the paintings of Edgar Degas and the live oak trees, makes it a perfect spot for brunch with friends or family. Cafe Degas offers a variety of dishes, from classic croque monsieur and eggs benedict to more adventurous escargots and duck confit. My favorite dish is the Ravioles d’Ecrevisse, which are delicate house-made ravioli stuffed with Louisiana crawfish, sautéed mushroom duxelle and spinach, topped with lemon beurre blanc. The portions are generous and the prices are reasonable, especially for the quality of the food. If you are looking for a romantic and relaxing brunch experience, Cafe Degas is a must-try. Bon appétit!"
