Booking ahead?

We'll be in NOLA this week and we want to hit up a few of the retaurants we've heard very good things about - Commander's Palace, Upperline, Galatoire's, Arnaud's to name a few. Should I have booked a few months ago, or are we safe if we make reservations now? Heck, is it even necessary since we're not exactly here during the height of Mardi Gras?

I would certainly book ahead. The tourist season is low (everyone else in the U.S. is still recovering from Christmas instead of gearing up for Mardi Gras), but you never want to chance the popular places. Anyway, walking in would be more likely to get you the bad table in the house. :cool:
