Mandina's 3800 Canal is awesome but cash only.

Jack Dempseys seafood, it's a little hole in the wall type place, but IMO it's the best seafood around. It's not super-spicy either, so I don't think that'll be an issue.
If you've got a big appetite try the onion rings too, they're the best.

Shame on me for not mentioning Jack Dempsey's. It is owned by the family of a good friend of mine. Bare is right, the food is great.
