Elizabeth's, Southern comfort food restaurant in Bywater, New Orleans, US.
Elizabeth's is a restaurant in the Bywater neighborhood that serves American comfort food made from local ingredients throughout the day. The space is casual and unpretentious, focusing on traditional dishes prepared with fresh regional products.
The restaurant opened in the late 1990s when owner Heidi Trull established it with the motto 'Real Food Done Real Good'. Current owner Chef Byron Peck has maintained this approach to cooking and serving.
Artworks from local New Orleans artists decorate the space, and the kitchen buys from regional farmers whenever possible. These choices reflect how the place connects to the neighborhood and its people.
It is best to call ahead for a reservation, as there is no parking lot on the property and street parking can be limited in this busy neighborhood. The place closes for a period during Mardi Gras season in early spring.
The signature dish of praline bacon combines sweet and savory tastes in an unexpected way and has become a visitor favorite. The menu also offers unusual items like French toast served as a burrito and blue cheese burgers with house-made sauces.
