Basically, people have named so many good places that I don't need to really add to it.

I might mention Crabby Jacks--a lunch joint owned by the guy who owns Jacque-Imos. But, assuming that you are staying downtown, it will be hard to get to Crabby Jacks.

I will also note that Herbsaint (mentioned above) is known for its Gumbo, which a lot of people going to N.O. want to try.

And, if you are there for a work conference instead of actual work (i.e. you don't need to be sober in the afternoon) I will mention that Cafe Adelaide has 25c martinis at lunch (limit 3) and very good food.

But, really, the places noted above by the others won't do you wrong. If I had to pick one place to eat a make-or-break meal in N.O., I would pick Commander's Palace or August.
