Restaurant and oyster bar Holywater opens today in the French Quarter.
As on the go as you are, you relish the art of the linger.
Rekindle your stay awhile mentality at Holywater, the latest concept from New Orleans natives and brothers Alex and Miles Pincus who operate Crew, the NY-based nautical hospitality group. Housed in a former 1800s maritime chandlery, the cozy eatery features details like a mahogany and brass oyster bar and salvaged Louisiana cypress beams for indulging in Gulf seafood and classical French technique. Potent sips like the Mezcal Hurricane and the Purple Jesus are two of the stellar cocktails that will surely have you seated.
Idle hands are the devil’s playground.
