"One of the most Classic restaurants in NOLA"

"Your romantic vision of a New Orleans restaurant is a sophisticated joint, perched at the corner of a residential street. It’s not fancy, though the tables are covered in pressed linen. The menu is Paris-at-the-mouth-of-the-Mississippi, the wine list biased toward Burgundy. It is not quiet. You’ve imagined Clancy’s, the paradigmatic Uptown New Orleans bistro. The restaurant has been the life project of Brad Hollingsworth since the 1980s. Brian Larson, Clancy’s co-owner and chef (and Mr. Hollingsworth’s stepson), runs a kitchen that has mastered a blended repertoire of French-Creole standards (turtle soup, shrimp rémoulade), idiosyncratic house signatures (sweetbreads du jour, fried oysters covered in melted Brie) and happy marriages between butter and fresh Gulf finfish. Everyone gets lemon icebox pie for dessert. So should you."
