New Orleans, LA | Lil’ Dizzy’s is as New Orleans as it gets. It’s on the north side of the Quarter, on Esplanade and Robertson. This is where the locals go for breakfast and lunch, and it’s kind of serves as the defacto “satellite office” for New Orleans PD detectives when they’re doing their community policing.
