Its Creole fare has been embraced as a symbol rental cars in ireland of the Crescent City's traditional cuisine.
Hence, scores of New Orleans natives and visitors alike hovered between apoplectic and disconsolate when, earlier this year, a real estate dispute put Tujague's at risk of becoming yet another tourist trap selling hot sauces, plastic beads and crass T-shirts. The dispute eventually was settled, renewing the restaurant's status as a French Quarter stalwart.

Spinach rental cars in ireland salad with fried Louisiana oysters, blue cheese, red onions, spicy pecans and warm bacon vinaigrette was an absolute delight, as was a spot-on Caesar salad with French bread croutons. Caesar rental cars in ireland salad should be a thing of beautiful simplicity, and this one is.
The five-course meal begins with Tujague's famed shrimp smothered in vivid red remoulade, which is every bit as delicious as in years past. A rich corn and crab bisque was a good soup course. Tujague's signature brisket, braised until fork-tender and paired with red Creole horseradish sauce, is famed for its eye-watering spice, but I didn't find the horseradish to be nearly as assertive as renditions in the past.
Entrees are mostly solid. Blackened redfish was flaky, flavorful and not too spicy and came with asparagus and mashed potatoes. A new dish of house-made gnocchi with Louisiana blue crab and wild mushrooms was a rich, creamy delight. A 14-ounce bone-in pork chop was juicy and had an excellent sear but it was on the salty side.
