New Orleans might not be known for pizza, but Reginelli's is one of the best pizza place I have been to. It's may not be the "real" stuff from New York, but its good, reasonably-priced pizza with a gourmet twist.
Everything is good, but I would defiantly try the Smokin' Chicken Pizza - chicken, pancetta bancon, scallions, and a spicy tomato sauce. I like Reginelli's because they use good ingredients. A lot of good pizza places offer mediocre salads on the side, but Reginelli's has amazing salads. You will never get a plate of brown, wilted lettuce as we all have at other places. In addition to good salads, they also offer sandwiches and a bunch of tasty appetizers. I would recommend the polenta. Topped with a cream sauce containing pancetta and shrimp, you will be pleasantly surprised that the gourmet appetizer you are enjoying came from your neighborhood pizza joint.
On Mondays and Tuesdays you can get a pitcher of Abita Amber for $2.

Kyoto
I would eat here everyday if I could.
New Orleans has some pretty good sushi restaurants. While I may stray now and again, I haven't found anyplace better than Kyoto.
Located in a mostly residential area in uptown New Orleans, Kyoto is the type of place that you could pass everyday and not even notice...if there wasn't a line out of the door almost every night. The fish is fresh, the sashimi melts in your mouth, and the menu is full of rolls with creative combinations of ingredients. It's relatively affordable and its surprisingly good. Splurge for the larger specialty rolls and you will eat some of the best tasting sushi you have had. The place is usually full, but its worth the wait. Kyoto serves a good, Japanese beer called Hitachino White Ale (similar to Hoegaarden) that goes surprisingly well with sushi.
