The Court of Two Sisters, Historic Creole restaurant in French Quarter, New Orleans, United States
The Court of Two Sisters is a Creole restaurant in the French Quarter of New Orleans, set around a large open-air courtyard where old wisteria vines grow overhead. The dining area features antique furnishings, and a daily buffet offers dishes such as crawfish pasta, eggs benedict, and turtle soup.
The property was originally run as a notions shop by sisters Emma and Bertha Camors in the late 19th century. It was later converted into a restaurant, keeping much of its original French Quarter character.
The restaurant is known for its daily jazz brunches, where local musicians play live while guests eat. Creole cooking and live music together make up the everyday experience here.
The entrance leads through original wrought iron gates directly into the courtyard, where most of the seating is arranged. The French Quarter location is easy to reach on foot, though the surrounding streets tend to be lively at most hours.
Near the original iron entrance gates, there is a spot known as the Devil's Wishing Well, where visitors traditionally make a wish as they enter. The gates themselves are sometimes called the Charm Gates, a name that has stuck with locals and regular guests alike.
