go out and eat some good food (jacque imo's, emerils, anywhere really ).. make sure to get some chargrilled oysters from Drago's you will thank me.. maybe wash it down with Abita Purple Haze beer.
go walk down Bourbon street and check out the madness.. get some Absinthe.. walk down Royal street for all the art galleries, Decatur street is also a cool street with many hangable bars (not quite Bourbon St) which leads to Frenchman St where it is hip and happening at night. you really can't go wrong with just walking around the French Quarter all day. walk down the Mississippi river and through the Jackson Square.. check out the street music, performers, and art.. Drink and party on the street! Go out and hear some live music and dance! and go swimming in your hotel because it will be very HOT! New Orleans is a great city! Be safe ;)pick up a Gambit paper for music & stuff

Just went for a bachelor party. Fucking intense. Ace though.
Eat a sandwich here:

Drink.
Listen to music on the street.
if you can meet some locals try and go to a crawfish boil. That shit's GOOD!

As a resident I would say Mother's is overrated and not worth waiting in the line out of the door. bliznutty had some great suggestions. Charbroiled oysters at Drago's is a must. You can find Drago's at the Hilton downtown by Harrah's. A great dive bar/restaurant with one of the best burgers in town is Port of Call. Back of the quarter on Esplanade.
jacque imo's is awesome, but prepare for a wait. worth it though.
try Frenchman street. some great bars and music scene. it's in the marigny which is behind the French Quarter, across Esplanade Avenue.

Thanks for all the recommendations so far. I'm headed out tonight to NOLA for the weekend....anyone else have any things to do or see.

go on the walking tours. hit the cemetery. the preservation jazz hall, the art galleries around jackson square, just walk around and soak in the awesomeness from everywhere. Have some oysters. I love Desire even though it's in the middle of the Bourbon St. crowd, which is something to avoid for the most part.
