  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
  • Great for brunch
Take a seat at our signature French-inspired bistro, Couvant, housed in the former Peychaud Cocktail Bitters factory. Here, French techniques (think pain perdu for breakfast and cochon de lait for dinner) play on the roots of New Orleans cuisine using fresh, local ingredients.

New Orleans is renowned for its French cuisine, and you won’t have to leave the confines of The Eliza Jane to enjoy delicious fare within a French bistro.

Couvant specializes in classic French cooking serving entrees that pay homage to French history and regional specialties. Never pretentious, the dishes and service at Couvant are purposefully simple and social. Nestle into an intimate dining room banquette. Or dine at a bistro table in our historic courtyard for chef-driven entrées and a bottle of wine — or maybe two.

    Don't miss the duck confit Benedict. Scrumptious! Illy Cafe is an added bonus.

    Probably the BEST hotel restaurants I’ve been to in awhile. The food is stunningly assembled and the service is amazing. The short rib is so rich and perfectly cooked. Highly recommend

    Escargot and fries were outstanding. Mussels weee a little bland. Waiter was solid but didn’t offer coffee at the end of the meal and the pacing of the food took longer than expected.

    Food was very good. But we had very poor service. We had to ask for extra utensils, waited very long between entrees, and server was clueless when asked about the menu.

    From the appetizers (escargot en croutes and deviled crab claws) to the mains, the food was truly fantastic. From the moment we stepped in, the service was fantastic. A standout in a city known for it's food-I highly recommend!
