Finally got a rez at Peristyle on my 4th trip to NO and boy was it worth the wait. Our waiter, Brian, was a doll and very helpful, the decor was elegant yet comfortable and the atnosphere was upscale without being pretentious. The food was beyond description except to say that it was perfect. I called ahead to order a special meal as I am a vegetarian and received one of the best dishes of my life. The presentation was so beautiful that I was almost sorry to cut into it. The 3 meat eaters at my table also enjoyed their meals tremendously. I can't wait to go back.
Pros: delicious food, great service, lovely atmosphere
Cons: hard to get a rez
