Review:
Uptown/Carrollton is a residential district in New Orleans known for its landmark restaurants, including the historic Jacque-Imo's, which is known for its delicious authentic Creole cuisine. The neighborhood was originally developed in the 19th century to refer to the area of the city north of Canal Street, serving as a distinction between its Francophone and Anglophone communities. Today, it is bounded by the Pontchartrain Expressway, the CBD/Warehouse District, and the Mississippi River near S. Claiborne Avenue. The residential neighborhood showcases beautiful live oak trees, stately 19th-century mansions, and the campuses of both Tulane and Loyola Universities, along with iconic live music venues such as the Maple Leaf Bar and quaint bookstores and clothing boutiques along Oak Street.
