Best food near me in Bywater, LA

Justini’s in New Orleans feels like stepping into a Gatsby party, but with way better cocktails and fewer questionable decisions. The vibe is effortlessly chic, the lighting is perfect for selfies, and the bartenders mix drinks like they’re casting spells. Try the “Espresso Martini Flight”—it’s vanilla, traditional , and death by chocolate! Bonus points for their playlist, which has just the right amount of throwback jams to get you vibing. Perfect spot for dates, catch-ups, or pretending you’re cooler than you are.

First time visiting New Orleans with my partner. Lovely restaurant. Our server, Michael, was knowledgeable of the details, handy with recommendations, and an all around solid professional. Kitchen team seemed really locked in, space was clean, the menu is tight, food is focused, presentation is elegant without being overambitious or pretentious. We had: Hungarian white wine (outstanding) A sample of a lightly effervescent basque white (great btg) Some clever fat washed Amaro, solid espresso, and a good espresso martini (my partner's preferred after dinner indulgence) Arancini (caviar is such a good addition, though they stand on their own) Meatballs (well made, clean flavor, succulent) Oysters (fantastic deal, great sourcing) Octopus (bold flavors, super tender) Hazelnut cheese tart (you're missing out if you don't do it) Shrimp cavatelli (easily one of the most dynamic sauces, really intriguing name, great job from Michael being on point with elaboration) Lasagna (solid construction while still feeling light, well presented, delightful smell, big and bold) Olive oil cake (love the salt, the cake is so light and easy, arguably my favorite kind of cake, kudos) I never review anyone, but I felt compelled. Weve been dining around the US for about three and a half years together now, here to relax and have a good time and celebrate our new (yesterday) engagement. This is the kind of place I love going, would love to work at or would seek to emulate in a number of ways if I ever get around to opening anything. Only regret is I forgot to ask for a dinner and dessert menu, we collect and will frame or scrapbook the best ones. Good food is an impermanent memory, its a nice way of appreciating where we've been, celebrating love, life and being happy. You guys are awesome, this place is a delight. Can't thank you enough! Heading to your sister restaurant tomorrow morning, incidentally. We pick well! Full tonight, off to bed happy. Cheers

Excellent! Food was delicious,,we had Mac & cheese beignets and the shrimp pasta dish with red sauce! All exceptional! Service as great and the house was beautiful! We will definitely go back and spread the good news about a charming “off the beaten path” restaurant!

We have been dining at Alma’s for several years for breakfast or lunch. The food is always delicious and service is great. We had huge vegetarian omelet and plantains with refied beans and creme. Always fun place to eat especially in nice weather to be outside!

Amazing food experience. We always come to Silk Road when we visit New Orleans!
