Where the Locals Eat Rating
Top 100 Restaurant, New Orleans
"Located in the heart of the French Quarter, facing the historic French Market, Tujague's has retained its reputation for providing an unforgettable dining experience in the original Creole tradition. ... Today, the customers are still served several traditional Tujague's specialties – shrimp remoulade, beef brisket with horseradish, ‘cap' bread (a Tujague's original) and dark coffee in shot glasses. ... The restaurant's style is as refreshingly unpretentious as ever."
– Tujague's website

"Just like café au lait and beignets on the other side of Decatur Street, a plate of beef brisket at Tujague's is an essential New Orleans dining experience."
– Michael Stern, Roadfood.com
"The tangy remoulade and savory beef can leave a lasting impression . . . you'll probably end up licking your plate and not so secretly longing for seconds."
