Compère Lapin

New Orleans is often called the northernmost Caribbean city, and celebrity chef Nina Compton’s flagship restaurant, Compère Lapin anchors that reputation, mixing her island heritage with the legendary flavors of the Big Easy. French and Italian techniques elevate Creole staples to create signature dishes like her celebrated Whole Jerk Chicken or an otherworldly Pickled Shrimp served alongside Taro and Santa Barbara Avocado.


Accordingly, Compère Lapin boasts nearly every award imaginable including a James Beard for Nina and a place on lofty lists such as Food and Wine’s “The 40 Most Important Restaurants of the Past 40 Years.”

Nina Compton and Larry Miller

Nina and her partner and husband Larry Miller (who runs the front of the house) present a refined Caribbean restaurant that fuses Compton’s St. Lucia upbringing with the rich cultures of New Orleans. Their philosophy: “Our histories, vast and varied, deserve to be memorialized and romanticized by dishes that at once remind us of home and transport us to somewhere new.”
