Delta Grill

Despite the diverse restaurant offerings on Ninth Avenue's restaurant row, Delta Grill stands out thanks to it's inexpensive brand of home-style Creole and Cajun cuisine. Cajun classics like red beans and rice and jambalaya are as authentic as anything this side of the Mason-Dixon line. The Southern-inspired atmosphere makes it easy to relax and soak in the swampy vibe sent off by the dark wood tones that dominate the restaurant. It may not be quite like dining in the French Quarter, but it's as close as you're likely to come without leaving the island.
