| Omni Royal Orleans | | New Orleans, LA | | A historic hotel in the heart of New Orleans’ beautiful French Quarter, Omni Royal Orleans blends refined hospitality with the jazz and pizzazz of Louisiana’s soulful culinary scene. The hotel’s signature restaurant, Rib Room, has been a fixture in the neighborhood for over 60 years, serving slow-roasted prime rib and seafood specialties alongside Southern favorites like savory beignets and fried green tomatoes. With its location on the corner of St. Louis and Royal Streets, large arched windows, and an elegant dining room, this is the perfect place for an afternoon of people-watching or a special celebratory dinner. Stop in for lunch, dinner, or simply a drink at the bar, but be sure to return on the weekend for the restaurant’s swinging jazz brunch.

The 101-room property features stylish accommodations, sweeping views of the city’s iconic spire-dotted skyline, and food and beverage options that hit all the right notes. If you think British fare is boring, you’re in for a treat at the onsite eatery, Treadwell. The restaurant deftly incorporates international flavors and flair into its mouthwatering menu. Thank you for pointing that out! Elevated classics like beer-battered fish and chips and lamb shoulder shepherd’s pie are complemented by standout dishes such as baby back bao and tuna steak with green papaya and coconut slaw, adding variety and intrigue to the offerings. Stop in on the weekend for a classic Sunday roast, complete with a vegetarian seitan option, served with potatoes, greens, gratin, and Yorkshire puddings. For a post-dinner drink, head to the bar or rooftop terrace, where a menu of inventive cocktails, like Second Breakfast—made with bourbon, smoked maple syrup, and ginger beer—pairs perfectly with skyline views. | |
