A Taste of New Orleans in Downtown Statesville: The Quarter Restaurant
If you’ve strolled through Downtown Statesville lately, you may have noticed the unmistakable buzz coming from Landmark Alley. That’s because The Quarter, a New Orleans inspired restaurant and cocktail bar, has quickly become one of the city’s most talked-about dining spots. With its soulful flavors, cozy ambiance, and strong community presence, The Quarter brings a fresh and flavorful twist to Statesville’s growing food scene.
The Vision Behind The Quarter
The Quarter is the brainchild of local restaurateurs Jason Cole and Andi Chadwick, the dynamic duo also known for creating downtown favorites such as Twisted Oak American Bar & Grill, Broad Street Burger, and Smokin’ Southern Cantina. Their passion for vibrant food and memorable dining experiences led to the creation of The Quarter. It is a space that captures the heart of the French Quarter while celebrating Statesville’s small-town charm.
A Menu That Dances with Flavor
Step inside, and you’ll find yourself transported straight to Bourbon Street. The Quarter’s menu celebrates Cajun and Creole comfort food, featuring classics like:
- Stone-fired oysters – available in varieties such as Brie & Bacon or Southern Rockefeller
- Gumbo and shrimp & grits – rich, hearty, and perfectly seasoned
- Authentic po’ boys with froast beef and shrimp to spicy oyster and catfish
- Muffalettas and peel-and-eat shrimp
- And don’t miss their Bourbon Street beignets, they are sweet, fluffy perfection to end any meal.
Their cocktail list brings an extra touch of Crescent City magic, serving up timeless sips like the Brandy Alexander, Grasshopper, and Bourbon Milk Punch.
Southern Hospitality, Refined
Beyond the delicious food, what truly makes The Quarter stand out is its top-tier customer service. Guests rave about the friendly, attentive staff who make each visit feel like a special night out. The space is intimate and warm, perfect for date nights, girls’ nights, or a relaxing dinner with friends. In the evenings, The Quarter takes on a grown-up energy, welcoming guests 18 and older to enjoy its inviting atmosphere.
Rooted in the Community
As much as The Quarter celebrates New Orleans cuisine, it also celebrates Statesville’s vibrant community. The restaurant participates in local festivities like Pumpkin Fest and Downtown Statesville’s seasonal events, often adjusting hours or menus to align with community celebrations. Like its sister restaurants, The Quarter is helping shape the city’s downtown into a true dining and social destination.
