More information on Mandina's
In a city renowned for its small, funky, local joints as well as its fine-dining establishments, dis is da ultimate neighbahood N'Awlins restaurant. Tommy Mandina's family has owned and operated this restaurant and bar since the late 1800s, and the menu hasn't changed much in the last 50 years or so. This is a good thing. What will change when they reopen (which they should have by the time you read this) is the interior; Mandina's got hammered by the storm, and the fourth-generation owners discovered that once you open up a 100-plus-year-old building, especially one that was expanded over the years in a hodgepodge, off-the-cuff manner, you discover all kinds of nifty additional problems. Choosing to address those now, rather than later, delayed their reopening, but at least this time it was put together correctly. And though the interior may be a little different, they vow that the food, and the staff, will remain the same. As we said, this is a good thing.Standouts among the appetizers are the greasy but yummy fried onion rings, the excellent tangy shrimp rémoulade, and the crawfish cakes. Soups are always fine as well, especially seafood gumbo and turtle soup au sherry. Then go for the wonderful red beans and rice with Italian sausage, the trout meunière, the grilled trout, or our favorite comfort food, the sweet Italian sausage and spaghetti combo -- hardly innovative gourmet, but exactly the way we remember it from childhood. And it's still here! Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.
