On October 13, 1986 The Bistro at the Maison de Ville, located at 733 Toulouse Street opened. The Bistro is walking distance from Jackson Square, the French Market and the river front.

The atmosphere and decor are inspired by Parisian bistros with red leather banquettes, beveled-glass mirrors, natural wood flooring, and Impressionist-style paintings. Al-fresco dining is also available in the courtyard, weather permitting. This nationally recognized restaurant became a favorite of both hotel guests and locals and was named top "Haute Restaurant" by the Zagat Guide, along with a host of other awards and accolades.

Chef Greg Picolo, a New Orleans native created a menu that pleases both diners and critics alike. Cooking in the Louisiana Creole style, different than the spicy Cajun style most people associate with Louisiana, Chef Picolo delivers sophisticated dishes that satisfied both body and soul. The The New York Post counts the BLT Salad as one of the best meals in New Orleans.
