Let the good times roll at Babin's Seafood House, a South Louisiana-style restaurant serving Cajun and Creole cuisine. The restaurant exterior is patched with several different styles of architecture found in the French Quarter. Inside, you'll find the same New Orleans flavor. Seating is generously spaced and there are booths galore. Although atmosphere can be half the experience, the food is the draw. Start with Oysters Rockefeller or file gumbo. For dinner, try their traditional entrees such as crawfish etouffee or shrimp creole. Don't forget to check the chalkboard for the latest catch. The fish is always fresh, never frozen. Order your selection with shrimp and crab stuffing or choose from a list of toppings like Pontchartrain or lemon butter sauce piled with crawfish or lump crabmeat. Babin's bustles on weekends. They don't take reservations, but they do offer priority seating. Just tell them in advance when you plan to arrive and when you get there they'll bump your name up to the top of the list. -- Sarah Nichols
