There's nothing like a cool crisp Godchaux Salad on a hot summer day! Back in the 1920s, Mr. Leon Godchaux would make the short walk to Galatoire's from his family's elegant namesake department store on Canal Street every day. Overheated from the walk, in the warmer months Mr. Godchaux would request that a salad containing all of his favorite things be composed just for him. Over the years Mr. Godchaux's eponymous salad has become a mainstay on the Galatoire's menu. The bright, acidic tang of the Creole mustard based dressing cuts cleanly through the richness of the lump crab, shrimp, and hard-boiled eggs.

Our Crab Yvonne was named for Yvonne Galatoire Wynn, Justin Galatoire's stately, elegant daughter, who devoted herself to Galatoire's from the late 1930s through 2000, serving as front cashier and later as president of the restaurant. It can be used as a garnish for fish, meat, or poultry or it can be enjoyed on its own. Want to change it up? Simply substitute in crawfish for the crab like we have here and you have Crawfish Yvonne!

Our Story

The grand dame of New Orleans' time-honored restaurants, Galatoire’s is a James Beard award winning restaurant located in the heart of the French Quarter.

Founded in 1905 by Jean Galatoire, this infamous address distinguished itself on Bourbon St. from its humble beginning. From the small village of Pardies, France, Jean Galatoire brought recipes and traditions inspired by the familial dining style of his homeland to create the menu and ambiance of the internationally-renowned restaurant. In its fifth generation, it is the Galatoire family and descendants who have carried the tradition of New Orleans’ fine dining restaurants and influenced its evolution.

The restaurant’s culinary customs and reservation statutes have been preserved with little change throughout the decades.

Consistency has been the greatest asset that Galatoire’s has displayed for more than a century. In April 2013, Galatoire’s added a steakhouse to its family of restaurants with the opening of Galatoire's 33 Bar & Steak next door to the original Galatoire’s on Bourbon St.
