 Perched right on the border of City Park, one of the nation's largest urban parks, Ralph's is an elegant establishment. Although it has undergone a series of chef changes, it has remained on track, thanks largely to the steady hand of veteran local restaurateur Ralph Brennan. Brennan’s smartest innovation was the introduction of a small-plates menu, in addition to his entrée list. The small-plates selections may include salt-and-vinegar frogs' legs; a flaky, flavorful crab meat napoleon; corn flake-crusted shrimp; and even a Vietnamese calamari with pork tenderloin stuffing. Full entrées run the gamut from saffron-braised lamb cheeks to curried pulled pork. Bourbon-soaked banana fritters bring a meal back to New Orleans traditions. The wine list balances interesting small-lot wines from the world over with less impressive but still drinkable California brand name selections. Reserve a window seat overlooking the park, or settle in at the bar.
