Come dine in this beautifully restored Uptown restaurant on Magazine Street and enjoy James Beard Award Winning Chef Justin Devillier's contemporary Louisiana Cuisine.The La Petite Grocery name pays homage to the history of its home, a building that’s stood for more than a century. The original structure was built in the late 1800s and called the Central Tea, Coffee and Butter Depot. In 1908, a fire devastated the space and it was transformed into a full service grocery store. Later it was most notably a fine foods and butcher shop, VonderHaar’s Fine Foods until 1982. When La Petite Grocery opened in March of 2004, they similarly aspired to provide the neighborhood with exotic teas, locally roasted coffee, and fresh produce. By doing this, we hope to provide a dining experience that evokes nostalgia of old New Orleans. Reservations are preferred.

    I was beyond happy with my birthday brunch at Atchafalaya. It has the unique experience of being unpretentious but with exquisite food. Hands-down best shrimp and grits I have ever had. And I have had a lot! I started with one of my favorites, the deviled egg, which is just extraordinary. You won't get it anywhere else. Knowing it was my birthday, they scattered gold stars across the table, which was so adorable, and presented me with the most delicious German chocolate brownie with whipped cream that I have ever had. The place never disappoints!

    La Petite Grocery was absolutely phenomenal! I honestly can’t say enough wonderful things about the food. We had the shrimp and grits and the burger, and both were out of this world! Every single bite was absolutely delicious. I could seriously eat those shrimp and grits every day and never get tired of them! The food was so incredibly good that it’s hard to even put into words just how amazing it was. The service was excellent, and everyone was so warm, friendly, and welcoming. From beginning to end, it was such a wonderful dining experience. I only wish we lived closer so we could come back again and again! La Petite Grocery was definitely one of the highlights of our New Orleans trip, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for an unforgettable meal!
