In Great Restaurants 1. Table closest to the corner of Washington and Coliseum in the room at the top of the stairs, Commander's Palace. Good only if you're an incontinent man. Last table on the right side of the downstairs dining room, Galatoire's. They apparently know this and don't use it much.
Waiters usually sit here between runs.
Deuce along the railing nearest the host station, first floor, Nola. You feel as if you're in everybody else's way. Booth near the waiter computer station, Palace Cafe. This one ought to be replaced by a potted plant. Table nearest the door to the back room in the front room at Antoine's.
