Rank 78. Harvest at the Masonic
American
Inside a restored Masonic Lodge, Harvest builds its menu from nearby farms and ranchers, with Creole shrimp and clean flavors that feel both rustic and composed. Live music fills the multi-level dining room where an American wine list of small producers reinforces what the kitchen already knows: sourcing and integrity matter.

Rank 92. Cattleack Barbeque
Barbecue
Wood smoke announces Cattleack before you see the line. Pitmaster Andrew Castelan tends oak and hickory fires for brisket and ribs that need nothing but themselves, though the bright, tangy house sauce sits ready on every table. Sides—charred greens, burnt end beans, street corn—and cornbread complete the picture of a barbecue operation running exactly as it should.
