Cochon
A modern Cajun favorite in the Warehouse District featuring whole-pig butchery and a wood-fired oven, with rabbit dumplings and wood-fired oysters being the most popular.
Run by Chefs Donald Link and Stephen Stryjewski, this restaurant showcases the rustic Cajun cuisine of Southwestern Louisiana. The restaurant does its own whole-pig butchery to make andouille and boudin sausages, utilizing a wood-fired oven. Signature dishes include wood-fired oysters with chili-garlic butter, rabbit dumplings, fried boudin, and fried alligator. It was awarded a Michelin Bib Gourmand in 2026. Open continuously for lunch and dinner daily, advance reservations are recommended. Cochon Butcher, located next door at the same address, is a separate establishment—do not confuse the two. Located in the Warehouse District, it is within walking distance and moderately priced.
