“Casamento’s has been a New Orleans landmark since 1919. CJ Gerdes has worked in his family’s restaurant since he was a kid. Using a basic setup, he dredges oysters in corn flour and cooks them in lard. They’re the best fried oysters in the world.”
– Playboy Magazine“Casamento’s is the granddaddy of them all. Situated on its Magazine Street perch since 1919, it’s an eye-catching sight..”
– Where Y’At Culinary Treasures“Casamento’s, 4330 Magazine St….Eighty years old, this tiny tile and marble decorated
