Carmo isn't just an alternative to the fatty, carnivorous New Orleans menu – it's an excellent restaurant by any gastronomic measuring stick. Both the aesthetic and the food speak to deep tropical influences, from Southeast Asia to South America. Dishes range from pescatarian to full vegan; try Peruvian-style sashimi or Burmese tea-leaf salad and walk away happy.
It almost goes without saying, but the juice bar cranks out some wonderful concoctions.
