An establishment quite unlike any other in Seattle, The New Orleans Creole Restaurant is housed in the historic Lombardy building in Pioneer Square. Nightly live music – excellent blues, jazz, zydeco and Dixieland – accompanies your dinner and keeps the spirit and heritage of New Orleans alive in the Pacific Northwest. Most anything goes in the lounge area (with a separate music schedule and a cover charge), but the dining room is family-friendly and great for sampling Creole and Cajun favorites. Lunch entrées are served with corn fritters, New Orleans salad and red beans and rice. There's oysters bayou (in a red wine base), chicken Rochambeau (a toasted English muffin topped with a ham slice, a boneless chicken breast, and egg cream sauce), and Eggplant Lafitte (stuffed with crawfish, shrimp and crab). Recommended dinner entrées include Crabmeat John Baptiste (a large mushroom stuffed with crabmeat and seasonings), stuffed flounder, and Cajun Fish Court Bouillon (with red snapper). From the full bar, there's also an adventurous specialty drink menu with hurricanes, mint juleps and Cajun martinis. Serving lunch and dinner daily. Late-night Fri–Sat.
