There are a lot of Italian restaurants in New Orleans, but authentic cuisine rooted in Florence and Palermo is unique. Café DiBlasi’s plain ambience belies its rich, flavorful Italian pastas, meats and savory sauces. All the predictable veal, pasta and seafood favorites are on the menu. Flaky crab cakes are lightly crusted, topped with shrimp and a Creole cream sauce. Marsala and porcini mushrooms flatter fork-tender tournedos. And both the house's signature pan-fried veal scallop and the deep-fried redfish come to the table in a nicely balanced lemon-cream sauce studded with crab bits. We also suggest the rosemary chicken and the black olive and artichoke bread.
