Corkscrew

Canal Street's main attraction, with beautiful tropical foliage surrounding the restaurant's modern, urban-style interior design in a dimly-lit but atmospheric environment. Upscale American cuisine is served here. There are outdoor and indoor options for seating, although it's often quite busy, so you can't trust that the option for outdoor seating (or indoor seating, for that matter) will be available.

Address: 235 Canal St
Getting there: if you're going east on Canal Street, it's on your left. It's surrounded in subtropical plants, so it's hard to miss
