Our Take: Sometimes a “new” restaurant in New Orleans takes on a life of its own. In 2017 Eater names Turkey and the Wolf on the 12 best new restaurants in America. They summed up their opinion saying “This is Ph.D. – level stoner food.” Beyond this, Turkey has created a following by not following the same old script. Fried bologna sandwich, a collard green melt, and a vegan chik’ sandwich are examples of how this small spot has created an outsized reputation. Add an attitude on socal issues, and Turkey and the Wolf is the exemplifies much of what is right about dining in New Orleans.
