The Durham House focuses on upscale spins on modern American and Gulf Coast flavors, offering an array of moderately priced small plates alongside pricier entrees. The cocktail program is among the best in the city, and the menu full of enticing options that deliver both depth of flavor and interest. Try the evocative Andouille and rabbit jambalaya served underneath a tender confit of rabbit leg, or the dangerously dark-roux gumbo that thrills in its willingness to skirt disaster in search of depth of flavor. Whether you grab a bowl of that fantastic gumbo or a couple of small plates, washed down with a polished and thoughtful cocktail from barman James Caronna, or opt for a traipse through the broader menu, The Durham House has turned from a rocky start onto a sure path to one of the most delicious kitchens in the city.
