The original Brennan’s, opened in 1946, recently emerged from an extensive renovation that spared no effort or expense by new co-owners Terry White and Ralph Brennan. Eight glamorous dining rooms, each steeped in New Orleans architecture and ambiance, celebrate the opulence of dining in a city where breakfast revelry is taken as seriously as a decadent dinner.
Our Take: For over 70 years, Brennans has been a destination restaurant in the Quarter. The home of Bananas Foster, the home of a magnificent brunch, and a starting point for countless other restaurants in New Orleans, Brennan’s has to be considered one of the “grand dames” of the city. Discounted parking available. A modest dress code is desired.
